I feel the need to make a list of everything, and I mean everything, that is going on lately. Maybe for myself, so I do not forget to complete things, and also for you! Because if you are a bride right now, like me, you may have had a moment or two lately that went a little like this; someone asks you how wedding planning is going and you say, “Great, we have gotten a lot done!” Then they ask you what exactly have you gotten done, and not until after you list out the things that are finalized you begin in the same sentence, “Oh but we still have this to do… oh and this… oh.. and that too…”

Does this sound like some of your conversations? They have sounded like mine the past month or two! While we have completed so much it is now the DIY projects that need to be started/completed, which I am very excited to start sharing those steps with you! We need to pick out songs for the key parts of the day, which I did not realize just how many songs we truly have to pick out! 🙂 We will also be finalizing our wedding invitation soon, and figuring out where we are staying the night of our wedding! You see… even a wedding photographer who is planning their own wedding gets a little behind and overwhelmed with all of the to-do’s as well! 

Well, I am so excited to share with you that I will be blogging about my DIY projects, decorations that I make for bridal showers in the next couple of months for my best friend and also my cousin! (We are all getting married three months in a row!) I will also be sharing our Women Who Hike group with you and our events. I am going to be blogging this but I am also going to be giving you lots of information via my email list!

I posted before about giving out JOY this year and I truly feel that this is another way to share with you all, to connect with you and to truly hear you if you feel intrigued to reply to my email that I will send out to you! I will share anything from something cute or weird that my aussie, Foster did that week to educational tips and lessons for you. I will share tips for brides planning their wedding and what I have learned through out these months of being engaged to the love of my life, Cory. I will share our women hiking trips, the locations, what we talked about and how it impacted me, but most importantly how it can impact YOU, as well! I hope you will join me!

If you would like to continue to be apart of the Jessica Ryan Brides and/or the Women Who Hike community, or if you just want to see cute pictures of my aussie, Foster, every now and then, then follow this link to sign up for my email list >>>>>  Jessica Ryan Photography Email List

I can’t wait to have you there along this journey with me!
