    I am so sorry about the loss of your grandfather! My grandfather passed away in December too. At my wedding I will be setting up a chair in honor of him because I know he will be in attendance even if he can not physically be there. Stay strong. ❤️ I pray for healing for you and your family.

    Not only is it ok to be sad but it is healthy! Repressing the emotions that a life transition/event naturally brings could really be taking a toll on your mental health.

    This is SO GOOD. I got married last week and had this realization too. Everyone acts as weddings and marriage is all rainbows and sunshine (which most of it is!) but they don’t talk about the stress and sadness! I appreciate you being raw with all of those who view this video!! It takes a lot to share the sadness or struggles during this time when it’s glamorized on social media!! I 100% related to every word you said and I seriously LOVE this video and your honesty!

    Hey girl, thank you for sharing about your loss and the hard stuff thats going on. I just wanna encourage you for a sec. A little background about me: my dad died 3 months before I got married. It was very hard and I just want you to know that you're not alone in this. One of the most valuable things that I learned in that season is that because of the Gospel, we can have both grief AND joy. We don't have to feel ashamed for either of those emotions. Jesus has conquered the grave and there is nothing that we can go through that he cannot empathize with. We can feel sadness because death and sickness aren't the way it's supposed to be. But we can also feel immense and indescribable joy because of the hope of future reconciliation in perfection with our loved ones and with the One whose sovereignty and love is forever good. Praying for your heart, as you process all the changes

    You had me in tears!😭 my grandfather passed away the February before I got married in November, I felt the same exact way as you. We set up a table to honor him with a picture of him on it at the reception and had a chair set up at the ceremony with a sign that said “we know you’d be here today if heaven wasn’t so far away”. I also had two small pictures in my bouquet of me and him together💗

    i’ve been struggling with the same thing and feeling like there’s something wrong with me, too. i’m getting married next year, and i’m struggling so deeply with change. being vulnerable is the toughest, and i’m so thankful for your heart.
    because, you and i are hurting in the same ways. i’ve recently lost close friends that won’t be at my wedding, too. it’s just hard.
    i’m so thankful for your honest heart in knowing that i’m not alone. and, that YOU are not alone. there are others in the same boat. about to graduate college, move, get married, etc. so much change. change is SO hard. and, it’s totally okay to be deeply sad in some of the happiest moments. 🤍🤍

    You're not the only one friend. It's totally ok. I got married three years ago at 19 dealing with a lot of anxiety and being absolutely terrible and afraid of change. I also had two of my grandparents get really sick and almost pass away right before and they couldn't come. I felt all those feelings too. It's ok and it will only make you and your hubby to be's relationship stronger. It was hard with so much change, but three years later we are strong together because of it and expecting our first baby! Praying for you. You'll get through it, God is bigger and its so so ok to not be ok.

    Jaclyn, you are amazing. You are so brave for being able to do school, plan a wedding, VLOG/TH-cam while having to deal with such a terrible loss of an extremely close family member. Don't feel ashamed for having to be distant or taking a step back. Everyone deals with loss differently, and I don't think of you any less if that's what you need to cope. I'm sending SO much love to you and your family. Change is hard but sometimes it's for the best. Keep being you and smiling!!

    Ps I’ve been here since your freshman vlogs!!

    When I got married I was also stressed and sad, my husband was in the army when we got married and he was stationed on the other side of the states, so when we did get married and moved in together, I was so far from anyone I knew. I just had him, I didn't even know the area before moving there, it was scary but it was also fun. And I'm sorry for your loss, I know how much it hurts to lose a family member. Just stay strong and focus on the good and the fun things, but remember it shows strength to be able to open up, especially because you share your life with all of us. It is nice to see someone open up about all the realness of getting married

    Woke up bawling my eyes out the day after my wedding. I had never moved away from my parents and it was such a huge transition and I finally realized that life was going to be so different but so happy at the same time. So so normal to be sad 💜

    Jaclyn, thank you so much for being so vulnerable in this and open about how while you are so excited for this chapter of your life that you are also experiencing a trial where you’ve lost someone so special. I’ve lost 2 grandparents (1 that was last summer) and I often think about how they won’t get to see me graduate college, walk down the isle and have kids. Praying for you during this journey and so much love for who you are as person!! ❤️

Your grandfather will be there in spirit enjoying it with you. You’re blessed in so many ways! Just breathe and let all your emotions out. Remember it’s ok not to be ok.😇❤️

    @bacgirly07 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Jaclyn, I’m so sorry to hear about your grandfathers passing. I lost my grandpa a couple years ago and he never saw me graduate high school. Thinking about all of the life events that is he going to miss sure does get to me quite a bit. However, I remind myself that God needed him more than I did right now. I also know that he is going to have the absolute best seat in the house for everything else that’s going to happen in my life. Stay strong and thank you for being vulnerable with us. We love you and are keeping your family close to our hearts in prayer.

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I know how it feels. Both my grandparents passed away before my wedding and I thought the same thoughts as you. It’s hard. As much as I wish they were both there, I’m so thankful for the memories I do have with them. They were both so very special to me.

    Jaclyn, you are SO strong. Hearing you talk about your loss has my heart breaking for you. I’m crying alongside you, but keep your head up, he’s still watching you and Sam as you enter this new and exciting chapter of your lives, your grandpa is just doing it in a different way. God has so many plans for both you and Sam and I know your heart will grow stronger. Praying for you and your family as you navigate this adjustment! Xo

    Jacklyn, first off I want to say thank you for making a video like this. I no your wedding has already come and gone and it was beautiful! I'm so sorry for the loss of your grandfather, I'm currently planning my wedding and have gone through the same thing with losing my grandmother in February. I really felt how hard it was having to take her name off the guest list, honestly I haven't even been able to cross it out or erase it. I understand that pain and to hear someone else talk about it somehow makes me feel a little bit better knowing that I'm not the only one that has gone through it. 💔

    I can SO relate to that. I’m about to get married and move 10hrs away where his family/friends/life is and had to just walk through grieving leaving my city, fam, church...all the things. Obviously there’s still good and bad days, but God is so faithful and I know so much fruit is going to come from the change. I think it’s so powerful to recognize that the exciting things don’t negate the hard ones& to really sit with the Lord and ask for His perspective on it all cause that’s what gives us peace and hope for the future🤍 I pray you ask the Lord to give you exactly what you need during this fun but sometimes scary season

    Hi Jaclyn! I appreciate your openness in regards to the realities of wedding planning. It was a hard and very stressful time for my husband and I last year with the pandemic in full swing. Media puts a lot of pressure on how you think the process is supposed to look and feel, but just know that you aren’t alone in those feelings. We all experience them, they just aren’t shown on social media usually as you said. You will get through it and be stronger for it!

    It’s normal to be filled with mixed emotions with big life changes! Change is scary and exciting and it’s ok to feel both emotions! A quote (from Whinnie the Pooh) that always helps me with transitions/changes in life is “How lucky I am to have had something that makes saying goodbye so hard”. The sadness you’re feeling about saying goodbye to this stage in your life is because you’ve been blessed with where you’ve been! Best of luck with everything!

    I think a wedding is a little sad when you have a big change from pre-married life. I was sad during my wedding because my grandma and step grandma were not at my wedding. They both passed away about two months before I got married. I hope you can have something special for your grandpa at the wedding. I pinned my step grandma's cross pin to my bouquet. I hope the rest of wedding planning goes well! I am excited for the wedding vlog!

    I just love how you share the normal/mundane, sad/hard and happy/fun parts of your life all together because that is the very real reality of life and it's encouraging to watch.
    Praying you feel God's comfort and peace during this season of both excitement and grief. 💛💛

    Wow I’m so glad that I could hear someone else say the emotional rollercoaster of getting married. Sending prayers for you and I’m so sorry to hear about your grandfather❤️

    I’m so sorry for your loss of your grandfather! I went through a similar hurt since none of my grandparents were at my wedding back in October. However, Etsy has some really cute charms you could add to your bouquet that you can put photos in. They can be very classy and it could be a way for you to add your grandfather to your day in a special way! Prayers for you and your family during these times! ❤️ thank you for being vulnerable!

    Whelp, this video made me cry. I’m not currently planning a wedding, but the process of helping my oldest brother plan his this past year, made me relate to you with the loss...and it makes me sad for the people that I have lost who won’t be at my wedding. I just know exactly how you feel and it just made me tear up. Your videos are so raw and real and we need more of it on the social media platform. I’m excited for you and your future. I haven’t even met you before, but hopefully one day. There is so much ahead for you and I’m cheering you on♥️

    Hey Jaclyn! I don't normally comment on TH-cam videos, but something about your wedding update just struck a chord with me. I am also engaged and feeling many of the same things you are; your video is exactly what I needed to see, thank you! I can also relate to the loss of your grandfather; both of my grandparents passed away in November, and it is really hard thinking about my wedding without either of them there. There are a lot of emotions that come with the engagement season, and thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing them. Love your videos!

    Sorry to hear about your Grandpa. 😢 But thank you for sharing what your going through. It always helps to know that TH-camrs also go through hard times, because you don't just share the 'rainbows and butterfly' moments. 😥❤️

    Sweet Jaclyn, when you get vulnerable with your followers, you’re helping so many others. It takes a lot of courage to talk about your emotions and feelings. It’s okay not to be okay. We’re all broken, and when we come together and realize we aren’t alone in our struggles, it’s a beautiful thing! It’s healthy to process those emotions, and not suppress them. God is close to the broken hearted. He sees all your tears. ❤️
    Thank you for sharing, sweet friend!

    Jaclyn, I just found your TH-cam channel and I absolutely love your vids. Thank you for being brave and having such an honest moment! I just got engaged on Christmas and I can relate to you in so many levels! I haven’t started planning for my wedding but I will be soon and I already have so many mixed emotions... it’s truly a bitter sweet moment. 💛

    I'm so sorry about your Grandfather passing away. I know that is so hard. I recently got married and both my husband and I do not have any living grand parents and that was hard. It is totally okay to be sad about that and all the things you have changing in your life. All i can say is just enjoy each stage of life you are in. Really take in each opportunity you have and live in that moment. You are totally going to love being married especially not living very close to each other right now. Praying for you right now. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

    Girl I am totally right there with you! And I am so sorry that you are having to go through this and feel this way while you are planing the happiest day! It is okay to be sad and it is okay feel like things aren’t fair right now. I am planning my wedding that had to be rescheduled from July 2020 to July 2021 due to the pandemic. Sadly, I lost both of my grandfathers in December and I am definitely struggling with continuing to plan this wedding knowing that they won’t be there. It just doesn’t feel the same. Keep pushing through! Your day will be magical! 💕

    Jaclyn! I completely understand where you are coming from with planning your wedding with taking your grandfather out of your guest list. I lost my grandfather in November and it’s still SO SO hard to realize he won’t physically be there. God will have him by His side while you and Sam get married! Praying for you and so excited to see your wedding! 💛
