Help! Indoor E-Session?

Good morning Ladies - I need your help.  FI and I are supposed to have our engagement session photos done this next Sunday, however, the photographer just emailed me and apparently there's a large chance of rain.  We can't push back any further as we've already done so twice so I'm in search of some good ideas of where indoor photos might be taken if necessary.  We're already planning to use the restaurant where we got engaged for a few but I'd like to have at least one more "venue" option... any ideas in the valley ranch/las colinas or surrounding areas?  Thanks for any suggestions!  Also, if anyone's taken photos in the rain, I'd love to see them as the photog suggested this as an option but I'm hesitant... thanks so much!

    Your photographer should have some ideas of places.

    Gaylord Texan in Grapevine?

    I think it would be fun to take photos in the rain, as the last segment of your engagement photos.  It would be very different.  I've seen some amazing shots from stuff like that. See: http://jennacole.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/wpid1514-16.jpg

    What about the Galleria? I know a mall sounds kinda strange but they have some neat little areas you could use.   I think pics on the ice rink would be awesome too.

    Also, I love the umbrella idea.   You could do them at the end, get a dark umbrella and do 'old hollywood style' on the canals maybe.

    What about your reception venue?  A lot of times places don't charge if you are getting married there.

    It's great to have back up plans but the weather is constantly changing and just because they are saying today that it might rain Sunday, that is still 6 days away and that could change.  Well that's just something to keep in mind.

    Thanks for all of the great suggestions, I realize it's still almost a week out but I'd like to get a jump start on a new location just in case.  Thanks again for the input, its a big help and who knows, maybe we will just go for it and have some fun in the rain! :)

    The Gaylord can be pretty mean if they catch you with a professional photographer--that's my understanding.

    I have seen some really great photos taken in the rain with umbrellas and fun rain boots, etc.  Someone already posted Jenna Cole link, those are the rain photos I was thinking of too.
