My name is Rachel and I'm getting married in June 2022 in my favorite place on earth - Santa Cruz, CA! Our wedding is happening at the Dream Inn with a beach ceremony and the reception inside the hotel's ballroom. I never thought that I would get married and I still can't believe that it's happening sometimes. I am so excited and happy to be planning my dream wedding with my dream man!

Hi, Everyone! I’m sure this has already been discussed, but is anyone walking down the aisle to an instrumental song rather than one with lyrics? The reason I’m asking is because I’m really struggling...
