For all my life, I've been watching videos about my "next step" just to have something to be excited about. It started as "how is 8th grade like", "a day in my life in high school". Then it was "how to get into X college", "how to chose a major", "college move in vlogs", "a day in my life during college finals", "a week in my life doing online school"

And now, here I am looking for tips to prepare for my wedding next year. Don't get me wrong. Things have been very hard lately, due to health issues and other stuff. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE has a battle going on that others can see.

But life is truly very amazing. It's fascinating how fast it goes by, and I couldn't be happier about this journey. The hardships are tough, but life is worth living.

God bless all the brides, the girls that are getting engaged soon, the ones that are just starting a relationship, and the ones who are still single, but will someday find a lifelong partner (if that's their goal). Don't worry, don't rush. Enjoy this amazing journey that is life 🪻🪻💜💜🫶

The only thing about the glasses I thought of doing that myself but someone mentioned they can crack and basically blow up if you're not sure what you're doing

May I ask how you set it up? I couldn’t imagine myself setting this up. Did you hire someone to set it up for you?

I came here to find out how to make wedding tickets and I have not been able to skip this video. You are so interesting I love the tone of your voice the speed of your voice and your creativity. I learned a lot that I hadn't counted on. Not even using wedding tickets for a wedding. Just wanted to make some fancy tickets😊

Rachel, since you created most of your decor. How did you decorate eight before the wedding since you were probably getting ready?

Fake candles battery operated are a good go to aswell if you worry about burn time or kids/drunk people knocking them over 😉😉😉😉

Hey Rachel! I‘m a German August-Bride & so in love with your Idea. We did that Tabledecoration at home, to see, how many candles we need. It get really hot in a couple of minutes. So just wanna to ask you: did you also had that problem at your wedding? Or is it just we tested it at our little dining room… I’m so unsure. Thank you for your help & sorry for my bad English 🙈♥️

I’m going to have individual vases with a flower in each and that will also be the guest favors. And it’s only $35 a table.
