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!

2031 days agoHi, 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...

2032 days agoHi, 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...

2032 days agoHi, 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...

2033 days agoHi, Ladies - Today was great day in terms of planning. I had a phone consultation with the photographer we want to work with (he's fabulous!) as well as the *new* wedding florist we are considering. Talk about a night and day experience compared to...

2034 days agoHi, 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...

2034 days agoLadies, For those of you who have found your dream wedding gown, what did you feel when you put it on for the first time? Were you emotional? Happy? Cry? Neutral? What were your initial thoughts? Based on what I’ve seen on Say Yes to the Dress, a lot...

2035 days agoWell, ladies! The time has come! I have finally booked my appointment to try on wedding gowns! Since my wedding is in June of 2022, I want to give myself at least a year to find “the one” and have plenty of time for alterations, fittings, etc. My try...

2035 days agoHi, 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...

2035 days agoI 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...

2036 days agoI’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...

2036 days agoHi, Ladies - I think I've come to realize that I need to take a break from trying to plan a lot of my wedding details early. While I'm glad to be getting married in 2022, I think it's best that I step away from chatting/contacting vendors about my...

2037 days agoWell, ladies, while I was really excited to work with the florist I had posted about previously, I decided to move on and contact other options. I understand my wedding date being a ways away and I’m completely understanding, but it has been over a...
