And though the rain also meant moving the ceremony from outside to inside, the St-Charles Country Club is blessed with a picturesque clubhouse and banquet hall.  With the help of a little extra lighting, everything looked great in there too.  Through it all, Nicole and John were all smiles and didn’t let the weatherman stop them from enjoying their day.  Congrats to the newlywed couple!  A few sneak peeks:
