Yesterday’s downpour couldn’t dampen a special day for visitors Erikka Olson and James Nimz, whose nuptials at the Unfinished Church in St George’s went ahead without the weather’s blessing.

The Colorado couple long had their hearts set on the picturesque open air chapel — and the unwelcome thunder and rain was not about to deter them from tying the knot.

Plenty of umbrellas were on hand for guests, and the vows went ahead in a service conducted by the Reverend John Stow. Sunshine finally broke through in time for their celebratory reception at the Grotto Bay Beach Resort.
