Hints about the bridal lineup came during a bachelorette party earlier this summer in Cabo San Lucas, where Gomez and her friends soaked up the sun aboard a yacht. Dressed in a white bikini and matching loungewear, the bride-to-be appeared surrounded by the very women now rumored to be bridesmaids, Ashley, Raquelle, Priscilla, Courtney, and Connar.<\/p>\n
