my bridal shower ♡ preparation/set up + vlog

[@pip1257]

It is a real testament to your grace and patience that you could handle such a big and hectic week amid such uncertainty. You are amazing for being able to keep it together though that week. Best of luck to both you and Liam!

[@AuthenticallyAmi]

despite everything it turned out beautiful! cannot wait for the next coming wedding videos ahhh 💛

[@victoriaivy5953]

I honestly have to much respect for your mum rach. After hearing about that your dad passed away and seeing how beautifully you’ve turned out she did an absolutely amazing job in raising you. I’m so glad you chose to go through with the bridal shower and I’m so sorry covid stole some of those moments from you. Enjoy your marriage! Your wedding is a day but a wonderful marriage is a lifetime xo

[@vanessahall9247]

I don't think you were negative at all, after the year you went through and the uncertainty of everything, you have been a positive and happy Bride to be, any tears you may have shed in the lead up to you your big day were truly justified! you did an amazing job with everything. Can't wait to see more wedding related content x

[@taylorfranklin616]

Girl yes I has so much anxiety about anything wedding. Right when I got married all the anxiety went a way. It’s just a lot of moving parts and worst case thinking if everything that can do wrong but you have such a good head in your shoulders. Just remember than anything that happens is beyond your control and life does go on! ❤️❤️

[@lifewithelle.]

Beautiful video, so sorry to hear most of your family couldn’t go, but as long as they are healthy and you still got your day that’s most important 😊

[@niknurain]

Covid’s tough, no argument here!! But my goodness Rachel, I’m so happy for you that somehow things have turned out in their own way and you’re beautifully married now 🤍🤍 sending you so much love and well wishes ☀️

[@heyrhi]

I'm so sorry you've had such a frustrating wedding planning experience! 🙁 everything looked beautiful in the end though, especially you! 😍 so glad you were able to have a celebration, even if it wasn't what you were dreaming of 💕

[@amandastevenson4733]

Your prep videos for weddings is so appropriately timed for me, I got engaged on the 27th Jan and been in full Wedding organising mode for a week now! I really really appreciate your tips to save money, cause Weddings aren't cheap! I'm off to Mt Tamborine to look at a few venues this weekend, wish me luck!

[@emmah3]

Sorry it didn’t go as planned but it turned out amazing and with quite a few friends still able to attend. You’re lucky and it’s a testament to your personality and who you are that a lot made themselves free to come celebrate you at such short notice. I only have a couple of friends and I know for a fact they wouldn’t just drop tools and be free that quick to come to an event even a significant one with a days notice. Congrats on married life. I enjoy living through your videos. Makes me feel like I have at least 1 loyal friend even though we don’t even know each other at all.

[@neptune9365]

You are absolutely gorgeous Rachel both inside and out, full of grace, just a beautiful soul. You re so blessed to have a lovely family friends and pets. Milo is just everything, super adorable ultra sweet xxx🐶

[@matildaspier8820]

This was so beautiful rach! Everything turned out so lovely even though it wasn’t your original plan! the decorations were perfect and that grazing platter looked amazinggggg! Keep being your stunning self xxx

[@paris.t09]

I love that you're doing everything yourself! It is so comforting to see someone who would rather opt for more sustainable (op shop finds) and inexpensive (at home DIY) options than spend $15,000 in a wedding planner!

[@AshleyJade18]

When you were talking about anxiety around your wedding - I've been saying my whole life that i could never have a wedding because i would be a nervous wreck while planning the entire thing, yet alone on the actual wedding DAY!! I could never do it!! 😂(and the fact that i am a horrible host/event planner 😂) I don't know how most girls plan their wedding! Superwomen! 💕

[@hielievelyn]

I love it!! It turned out beautiful at the end!!

[@reneetheearthbuzz9606]

Your patience and creativity knows no bounds 🥰🌻 It all turned out so so gorgeous and still seemed so much like you. You definitely can vent and feel a little bad especially with the way the world is at the moment. We don't expect you to be positive allllll the time and it's grounding to see you film yourself in a natural way. 🌱

[@jadevickk]

me sitting over here dead and waiting for the wedding videooooooo!

[@chloefalkenberg8266]

Me too!!!!

[@RachelCatherine]

Videographers take months! Please be patient 💕

[@HeatherG003]

So happy it worked out well for you in the end. Your such a inspiration for trying to stay positive in a very very tough time but still being raw with us viewers. Really appreciate it. Can’t wait to see the wedding day video 🎉💕

[@laurenpage3121]

I was off my face before my wedding and that was pre covid times. Its SOOOOOO stressful. I was exhausted and took me ages to recover. I'm an anxious person and my wedding was in my home state NSW. We live in WA. (dont recommend) hahaha. You did so well mate for planning it. It's a lot!! Congratulations xx

Awesome video Rachel! It’s sucks that COVID keeps messing stuff up, but at least it went okay!😸😸

[@ShawnaLorenzen]

I really feel for you not having your family there :( your backyard set-up turned out so cute!

[@DavidJasonPerezTV]

First comment!!! Love the vlogs Rachel!!🔥🔥🔥👍

[@MathildeG]

I just got engaged and I’m binging your wedding videos for inspiration 😊. My parents are French and we don’t have all these pre wedding parties. I don’t understand the difference between a bridal shower and a bachelorette’s party?

[@mishkepetrus8609]

Love her dress! 😍 What kind of dress it is/ what is it called?

[@nora.a7169]

Loving these videos 😍

[@birdybabez]

Looks amazing ❤️😊

[@MrClemmo13]

🤦🏻‍♂️Damn COVID! I really do feel it for you

[@nicolelisa]

Love this 💕

[@jimfolmar]

Have u thought about just postponing the wedding all together? I'm a guy so idk bout all of this stuff but it seems like that would have been my choice. Anyways...I hope everything goes well for both of u and I wish u all the luck!

[@missemilyjane]

She’s already had the wedding. And idk if you can even move weddings that close to the date

[@woman4163]

So sweet

[@courtneyevans3087]

Does this mean you’re married now?? Or do you just have plans for the remaining weekends before the wedding? Either way, very happy for you xx

[@lb.08135]

Ahhh hi

[@NE-qq1os]

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. (John 3:16-18) Whoever is reading this, Jesus loves you. Yes you. He loves you with all your faults and all your brokenness. He wants a relationship with you. He wants to heal you and redeem you. He wants to save you. He not only loves you, but died for you and took your punishment and mine upon himself. He bore our sin and shame. A death he didn’t deserve but we did. If you have not given your life to him and accepted him into your heart and repent/turn away from your sins, I sincerely hope you make the decision to do so soon. We are not promised tomorrow. “Come close to God, and God will come close to you.” (James 4:8) Jesus isn’t just a way, he is THE way. God bless. ♥️
