13. Life Making Decisions
"I just sent the invitations out today," Rachel tells Kurt.
Kurt gasps horrifically, "You sent them out without me seeing them? I swear to God I better like it when I see mine in the mail."
Rachel laughs, "Do I have to remind you that this is my wedding?"
"Do I have to remind you that you told me years ago I'd be in charge of your wedding?"
"Whatever. Just help me get a dress! I have exactly twenty one days until I'm a married woman. I can't believe how soon it's approaching."
Yes, Rachel Berry is actually going through with this. On October 16th, 2017 Rachel will be married to Adam Zimmer. Her official name would be Rachel Barbra Zimmer. Mrs. Adam Zimmer. They'd move into a house once she got pregnant and they'd name their girl Alayla (his idea) and their boy Arman (his idea, again).
She doesn't really care because they'll be her babies and that's all that matters. She always wanted to be a mother and now she has her chance.
"Okay, okay, I'm looking for something. Now, Adam told me he wanted you to look like his queen, so we're going for something big and outstanding."
Rachel bites her tongue. She never wanted a dress that was big and outstanding. She wanted to have a simple dress; maybe some lace or delicate beading.
"Oh my God, this is it, Rachel. This is exactly what he would want," Kurt says in a sarcastic tone, hoping that she would just get the dress that she wanted and dump the jerk. He'd marry his best friend if she really wanted to be married that badly for crying out loud.
Rachel presses her lips together and frowns at the dress before nodding in agreement.
"You're right, this is it," She softly says.
The dress is a Galina Signature with a form fitting taffeta bodice that features a dropped waist and an allover ruching for a flattering look. Cascading floral appliques shape the breathtaking skirt and a chapel trail is extended very long in the back. It's outrageous, obnoxious, and very dramatic.
Something some celebrity would wear. Something that would get a lot of attention. Something that Adam would love so much. After all, she was trying to make him happy.
They check out and make arrangements to pick it up the day before the wedding before leaving the bridal shop and going to the florist. They pretty much had everything set up except for the catering, but apparently Adam had that covered.
The next three days was nothing but hectic with calls to make sure that everything was set for the hall and church. They got back all their RSVP's and were able to get a good guest count.
Now she just had to wait seventeen more days for the end of her life. But it'll be the beginning of a new one. She'll be married and mother Rachel.
It's what she wants.

He nearly has a breakdown when his mom calls and tells him she's flying out to New York in a week for Rachel's wedding.
"Mom, you're kidding me, right? Please tell me you're kidding," He pleads.
"Finn, I am sorry, but I love Rachel. She was practically my daughter and she called me the other day and told me that she really wanted me to come. I sent to invitation back to RSVP already."
"Mom," Finn whines. "I can't believe this. Why would you go to her wedding and support her choosing that guy over me?"
"Finn, I think you're out of place right now. I actually think you should go to the wedding too. Maybe when she sees you, things will change."
"What do you mean? Like we can be friends? I don't want that, mom."
"No, Finn, I mean maybe she'll back down from marrying Adam Zimmer. The guy is a real charm… not. He's terrible to her! You can tell she doesn't want to do this, but no one is giving her a reason not to. I think that you could be the reason, Finn!"
Finn shakes his head, "Mom, that's kind of crazy. I'm not going to be the awkward one who stands up when the priest asks if anyone wants to stop the two from marrying. This isn't some stupid romantic movie."
Carole sighs happily, "But it could be. I know that most the time those movies are completely fake. Correction, all the time those movies are fake. But that's for most couples. You and Rachel are different. You guys are the love story people want to hear about. You guys are the couple people root for and will always go along with because they can see how good you guys are for each other."
Finn's lost in this little dream. He sees himself standing up in the altar, his brother, Blaine, Mike, Artie, Sam, and Puck on his side. Rachel's friends on the other side. The priest is behind him.
There are a bunch of people sitting in the pews and it's nicely decorated in here. The doors open that lead to the aisle of the church and Rachel comes into view, Hiram on her right, Leroy on her left.
She looks so beautiful, the top layer of her hair wrapped around her head as a fake headband type thing. The rest of the long brown hair tumbles down with loose curls. Her makeup is light and natural. She's stunning. He wishes that she'd remove the veil so he could see her even better, but he knows he can't do that until he's going to kiss her.
The vision snaps away quickly. His mom is right; they are that couple that should belong in a romantic movie. Because they have a great story and great chemistry, it's so unreal. Not one couple had that unique love that Finn and Rachel had. And he knew that she still felt that way too. She had too.
"Finn? Are you listening to me?" His mom yells.
"Mom, I'm getting a ticket. I'm going to the wedding."
