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!

Ladies, I still have my heart set on Hayley Paige’s “Max” gown, but she also has a similar style called “Gigi”, which I saw in YouTube video from her fashion show. They both have pretty much the same...
This dress is gorgeous, too! I know some might think that the deep plunging neckline would be an issue, but I am not overly busty to the point where I’ll be showing too much. This one comes in either...
