Tom and Lisa had planned an outdoor wedding in the park. All week, the weather had been sunny, but on the wedding day, it started raining heavily. At first, they felt disappointed. However, their friends quickly helped move the decorations and chairs inside a nearby community hall. Despite the weather, the ceremony was beautiful. Everyone laughed, danced, and said, “It’s a wedding we’ll always remember.” Tom and Lisa realized that it wasn’t the weather that mattered but being with the people they loved.
