Rashelle and Jeff Brown

I absolutely loved videoing this couples wedding video. It was such a perfect day!! It was snowing so hard in the morning and then stopped right when they came out. It was perfect fresh fallen snow day. Everything was so white and was a good reminder of the pure day that they had as they were sealed in the temple. I hope you enjoy their video. I am definitely still beginning but would love to do videos for anyone. Just send me a text:) 8017214352

Our Story


This story has been so special to me. It is the story of how I met my best friend and how I found so much happiness in my life. When he was on his mission, I kept forgetting little details of the fun things we did and the memories we shared so I ended up writing a 50 something page book about it all. I will forever cherish it. It was so fun to have Jaydon read it when he got home from his mission.

This video is a little long but I loved going back through old memories as we are getting excited to get married.  I will forever be grateful for August 25, 2013

Kallie Ryan... Has a RING To it Right??

EVERYONE! I AM ENGAGED!! So crazy!! Let this wedding planning begin! Here is a small run down of how it happened
so... I was at work in Provo and THOUGHT Jaydon was to. He is so tricky.
My mom asked me to come to dinner with our family and so I took the front runner home so me and Jaydon could drive back to Provo together when he came home for the weekend. Well, my dad picked me up and I had NO IDEA! NO IDEA!! I accidentally read a text from my friend to Jaydon saying that he was proposing at the cabin that I was going to the next week so I was set on that. I even packed cute clothes for the cabin trip. I wore my leftover clothes that day (maroon pants and a brown coat) haha great colors together:/ haha. I got home and was getting ready to go to dinner when my family said that they wanted to show me a video.
They started it and it was so sweet. It was pictures in order of all of the memories that me and Jaydon have gone through. I knew what was happening but still was so confused. I couldn't believe it!! The song Marry Me was being played (which was a song me and Jaydon always belted in the car in High school) and at the end he said, Kallie, I have a surprise for you outside.
what?? what?? ahhhh!! I was so excited! I walked outside and started to get nervous and then Jaydon said "hey pretty girl" and I immediately felt comforted and knew that I was supposed to be with him forever. There were lights and pictures everywhere and it was just beautiful. I was excited to see thing ring but really truly couldn't stop looking at my future eternal companion like WOWZA he looked so good. Not just on the outside but seriously so cute and amazing on the inside as well. My ring is an opal which I loooove!! It looks like a Crystal  ball changing colors in the light haha. It is my birthstone and I have always loved the uniqueness of it.
welp! there's my story. thanks for readin.

The M or M (mission or marriage) Decision





Hey everyone!! Guess what?? I am engaged to my best friend!! It has been the best craziest learning and spiritual journey getting here. From the first time I met Jaydon, I DREAMED of eventually marrying him. My wedding board became a secret me and Jaydon board haha. Here is my journey to getting to marry my best friend.
So Jaydon left on his 2 year mission and throughout that time I knew I was going to marry him. I didn't know how he felt about it but I sure loved him and was crazy obsessed with him. The way he served his Heavenly Father on his mission proved to me that he would serve me just like that and work hard for a great marriage/relationship just like he did with his companions and the Lord.

One decision that was so hard for me to decide was whether I was going to go on a mission or not. It was so hard for me because I love the Lord and would absolutely love to serve him but just didn't know what to do. I actually felt a little guilty thinking I might not go. I also knew marriage was so exciting and wonderful as well so I was honestly back and forth. I learned a lot through this experience about not comparing yourself to other peoples stories. EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT EVERYONE!! sometimes things work out sometimes they don't. I would get so caught up saying "well, so and so worked out and she served a mission" or "she didn't serve and was fine." To be honest, comparing only made things worst for me. What I learned was that it is between you and your amazing, loving, understanding, merciful Heavenly Father to decide whats best for you.

Instead of relying on google or the world to find an answer, I relied on conference talks, prayer, scripture study, my bishop, and wonderful parents to find what I need to do. As I did those things, the spirit slowly taught me what was best. I never got a big answer but I got good feelings that it was going to be alright thorough my process of deciding.

As i researched and went to mission prep and other things like, I became so much more grateful for missionaries and the sacrifice that they gave to the Lord and I also learned a lot about marriage to. To be honest, I thought marriage was some trip to disneyland. It is some of the time but is a lot of learning and working through things to celebrate those good times. I learned a lot about myself through this process and about the love my Heavenly Father has for each of us. We should never judge peoples paths because each are very personal.

I got sick in November and had a fever and was just shaking because I got so cold all of the time. I could barely get things done because I couldn't move without getting so cold. I asked sweet Jaydon for a blessing and in it he said that I would learn something from it. WHAT?? from being miserably cold with a fever?? I thought about that throughout the time of my sickness and realized what I needed to learn. I learned how protected and how well Jaydon would treat me for the rest of my life. He is AMAZING he made me food, wouldn't let me lift a finger, would get me medicine, rub my back, you name it. Right then, the spirit taught me through this trial to not be scared, or stressed about my life and made me realize that marriage is going to be my right path. Even though a mission would have been wonderful to, I felt so right about getting married.

I loved this talk that talks about going on a mission. It is a wonderful thing and helped me make my decision. Young Women and the Mission Decision and Mission Decision

anyways, kind of long but I just want to say that everyone has a different life. The best thing to do is to choose one thing and move toward it acting as if you are doing that thing and see how you feel and listen to the spirit over time. It takes a lot of patience and time sometimes but, I know that God and the spirit will be the best resource to making your decisions.

I couldn't be happier to marry my best friend and am still preparing to serve a mission when I get older and also being a missionary to my future children and people around me.
