Screw Lexapro, you need to go to individual therapy, now. NOW. NOW. NOW. If the anxiety isn't from your job, or your existing family, or wedding planning, oof. That's not good.
I had misgivings before marriage, and the only thing that keeps me from regretting the 10+ year marriage is the kids that I can't see anymore. Your instincts are telling you something. Figure it out. SSRIs will not fix the problem. You're just setting yourself up for a crappy marriage and a divorce in a few years, unless you make enough money she'll just fake it to keep dropping money on mimosa Thursdays, etc.
Please, talk to someone *now.* Drugs aren't the answer, there's something else going on.

My anxiety is because I constantly think I have a deadly disease. Have always had fixations since I was like 5 about this regularly. This is the worst it’s ever been, probably because weddings are also incredibly stressful in general.
The wedding is just compounding stress because it’s a 250 person black tie wedding. Not the stress of being married. It’s planning the biggest event of my life and worrying if I’ll get horrible news right before.
My fiancé is basically the only thing getting me through these visits and tests. She’s incredible. I definitely have no reservations about marriage, just want to make it there!
