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 need some opinions on what to do here... as I mentioned in my previous post yesterday, there's a bridal boutique here in Sacramento that is offering some Hayley Paige trunk shows coming up. I've already booked my appointment for her...

Hi, Everyone - I have officially booked my appointment for April 3rd, 2021 with the bridal salon hosting the HP Spring 2021 trunk show! With that being said, one of the gowns that I am DYING to try on is the Radley gown! I've had this one on my radar...

The Hayley gown is the gown that I loved from the very beginning, even before I met my fiancé. There is just something about it - the color, the detailing, the intricate details... I LOVE this gown. I kind of filed it away and disregarded it because...

Hi, everyone! Well, my fiancé and mine’s mini getaway to Santa Cruz and our venue was exactly what we needed. It was a great break away from the chaos of our everyday lives and we truly loved spending some time at the coast and staying at our venue....

Okay, ladies... I’ve come to realize that I have a thing for dream catcher sleeves! Apparently that’s what these wider, looser sleeves on HP gowns are called. With that being said, it’s come down to these two... the Indi and the Lumi. I do love the...

Does anyone else love the HP “Lumi” gown as much as I do? There’s something about the style, color, and those sleeves that are so pretty to me. As you all know, I love gowns that are on the unique side. Although the blue/grey shade is beautiful, it...

Hi, ladies! I want to see photos of your engagement rings! I think, next to wedding dresses, engagement rings are so individualized and no two are ever alike. I’d like to hear the story behind your ring and the proposal! I’ll start with mine! Mine...

Ugh, ladies, there is something about all of that intricate lace on the skirt, it really accentuates the lace detailing on the sleeves. I love this one!

Hi, ladies... I stumbled across more photos of the Byrdie gown today and I do think that it is a VERY pretty gown, but I’m not quite sure that I love it as much as I did initially? Perhaps it’s because it’s missing that elegant, romantic, feminine...

Hi, Ladies... Out of the entire Spring 2021 Hayley Paige collection, the Dalton is definitely my favorite. I even like this one better than the Byrdie gown! There is something about the delicate lace on the whole gown that is stunning! With that...

Hi, Ladies - Here is a new gown from Hayley Paige called the “Dalton” gown. I love this one! I’m a huge fan of long sleeved wedding dresses with intricate lace and this one is gorgeous to me. I’m starting to realize that I may be more partial to...

Hi, Ladies! Our Save the Dates just showed up in the mail and I have to say, these are even more beautiful in person than they were digitally. I can’t find one single flaw! We won’t be sending these out until next year, but I am so happy with the...

Hi, Ladies - I wanted to show a little bit of the work that the photographer (I’m almost 100% sure we’ll be working with him) my fiancé and I are considering for our wedding. What I love most about his work is the fact that he uses a warmer color...

I am in love with this gown! But I think this is one where less is more when it comes to accessories. I envision some sort of simple necklace, but what about earrings? That's where I'm stumped. I definitely wouldn't do a veil as this dress has such...

I’ve gotten a lot of messages from people asking me what my top 5 or so gowns would be at this point in time, if I had to make a list. What’s surprising to me about that fun question is that I’ve posted so many gowns over the last few months and my...

Hi, ladies - Lately I’ve really been taking a liking to gowns that are more on flowy, feminine, and romantic side. There’s something about this gown that I really love, it might be the sleeves and the Swiss dot pattern 🤔 and of course, the cashmere...
