A trooper! A rock star! She did not let a little seasonal rain deter her from setting up on the beach as planned. I was a hot mess and she stayed calm and cool. A half hour before our ceremony started it was pouring rain and I&#8217;m panicking. But not Kelly! Then the clouds departed and blue skies were overhead right at the start time. Of course, Kelly was soaking wet but that did not stop her from making sure we had an awesome experience. As the professional photographer was taking photos, Kelly took photos using my cell phone which was great to be able to share pictures right away to friends and family. Kelly, we love you! Thank you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Mark contacted me from Washington and let me know that he was planning on surprising his long time girlfriend during an awards banquet dinner and popping the question!
