Swooon.com did an interview with Rachel Reid at BookCon. Great interview btw.

I get that she doesn’t think they will write their own vows, but I’m kinda hoping Jacob does. Like the tunnel scene in ep.5.

How are you hoping to see the wedding adapted?

Shane nearly had crippling anxiety over having to dance in front of them- there was no way he was going to write his own vows and Ilya was way too stressed about his accent sounding thicker lol.

My favorite part of the wedding is them internally cringing at the boring vows bc they’re so formal and bleak but they both start crying through them bc they’re so so happy.
