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!

697 days agoI just had my final fitting and we got to bustle my train! My wedding is only 4 weekends away! I’m really happy with all of the work my seamstress did, I love it! I’m not too fond of how the back looks, but I’m hoping that can be fixed by loosening...
