Transcription of Heath and Mariah's Royal Wedding Celebration Debrief - UNFILTERED 273 from Zane and Heath: Unfiltered Podcast
00:00:00

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to celebrate and announce the marriage of Heath and Mariah Hussle. Wow. I haven't been this excited to record.

00:00:18

I know. I was shivering in my booties.

00:00:23

I'm definitely going to hold the mic in my left hand.

00:00:25

We've been trying not to talk about it because we want to debrief on the episode. There's so much I want to talk to you about and you guys about. It's nice that we finally get to meet up and just go through everything right now.

00:00:37

Because you want to hear from perspectives like a goer or a groom, a goer. You get all sides right now, which is really nice.

00:00:45

Does it still feel like it was yesterday? Or does it feel like it was forever ago?

00:00:49

It feels like it just happened.

00:00:51

Yeah, it definitely feels like it just happened.

00:00:53

I mean, it was three days ago.

00:00:54

Yeah, we've been married for three days now. Is that crazy? So weird.

00:00:58

Just to start I'm going to say this now and after we're done with the episode. Congratulations. Thank you. Best weekend ever. Like, dead ass. That was the funnest, coolest wedding I've been to in a really long time. It just felt so traditional, and you don't get a lot of those, I feel like just recently in general.

00:01:19

It felt straight from the '70s, '80s.

00:01:22

It felt homey, too. I felt like I could really hit everything, which a lot of weddings, you feel like you just miss stuff all the time. So that was really cool.

00:01:29

I Zane found his calling that weekend. I could not believe you became a different breed. You were on it.

00:01:36

I told myself, look, this weekend is like, they've been talking about this weekend for maybe the past five years. And I knew in my head, I was like, it doesn't matter how anxious I am, how upset I am, or just all that, just let it go and just be there mentally, physically, everything. And don't mess up. It's not about you. And just do everything you can to make sure that they have the best weekend of their life.

00:02:06

It felt like it healed you a little bit. No, it did. It was like, I don't know. You just felt in your element.

00:02:12

Anxiety out the door.

00:02:13

Yeah, it was so strange.

00:02:14

I know I've said it a hundred times to you, but thank you again for everything. Genuinen, you helped so much. You did make it a lot easier. It's not even funny. And just day before the wedding, day of the wedding, just everything.

00:02:26

He was actually our safe space, believe it or not. You our safe space throughout the whole week. There was a point where he was like, I'm overwhelmed. I think I'm just going to go sit in Zane's room. I'm like, Really?

00:02:37

Nice. That's good.

00:02:38

What about my room?

00:02:39

What about me? But it was just perfect. When we got bombarded with a lot of people, we just felt like we need to, let's go find Zane and just stand in front of him.

00:02:48

I called Zane at 1: 00 in the morning the night before the wedding because we had to separate rooms.

00:02:54

I hated that.

00:02:55

I called Zane at 1: 00 something in the morning, bawling my eyes out. And he's like, Do you want me to come to the room? I was like, Yeah.

00:03:02

I had like 40 people in my room, and I was like, Guys, I got to go. Oh, wow. Where are you going? I didn't even say where I was going. I was like, I have to leave.

00:03:11

Were you bawling out of just excitement and joy and stress? Just nerves.

00:03:16

I think I lost 5 pounds this wedding out of just straight water weight from tears. Dude, it was nonstop.

00:03:23

I truly didn't feel an ounce of stress.

00:03:26

Mariah, it was so funny because he'd be He'd be freaking out, just nervous, every emotion in the book, and you'd come in the room, and he would immediately just change his- I did feel nervous, and I felt anxious, but on a good way.

00:03:45

I was overwhelmed, anxious, and nervous in a positive way. I wasn't angry, sad, upset at any moment.

00:03:53

Your anxiety was at the door. I didn't see you once with anxiety, I feel like.

00:03:57

I truly think the people around me made it so much easier. Having my cousins by my side the entire weekend really helped because they're so distracting and entertaining. Those people are really your safe space. Yeah, I'm a totally different person.

00:04:10

Trust me, I noticed it.

00:04:12

I'm very comfortable around them.

00:04:12

I see you every day here, and I saw a completely different person that weekend, this past weekend. It was insane.

00:04:17

They make everybody feel very comfortable.

00:04:19

Yeah, I felt great.

00:04:21

You found your people.

00:04:23

Zane was in his glory with all the cousins.

00:04:25

Because they're crazier than him.

00:04:27

It's nice being around idiots, too. I feel like I don't see anybody like that here in LA. That's for sure. People that have no shame. Exactly. Because I have no shame. I have no filter. So being able to even just sit there and listen to them like, Oh, that's nice.

00:04:46

It's refreshing.

00:04:47

They made me look normal, but it was great. I was told either like, those girls are fucking loud, but thank God they're funny. Yeah, thank God.

00:04:53

They're hilarious. The same was like, If they weren't funny, they would be so annoying.. Just the The level they talk at is so high and so fast. It's really entertaining.

00:05:05

They try to beat each other on who's funnier, which I feel like we do sometimes, too. But it's just constant.

00:05:11

Because we always talk about it in group chats. My mom's side of the family and my dad's side of the family, the cousins are equally so funny, and they like to battle who's side of the family is funnier. It's just exciting always.

00:05:23

It also reminded me of when I was younger, we'd be with our cousins from my stepdad's side all the time, and it was always a constant... It never stopped because they were funny, too. I don't see them anymore. It was really nice to get that feeling again, of a bunch of cousins just bantering and having fun.

00:05:41

There's a lot of us.

00:05:42

Yeah, it was amazing.

00:05:45

But-well, let's get into all of it.

00:05:46

We have so much to talk about.

00:05:49

Let's get into the intro. The first intro after you both are married to Mr. And Mrs. Usar, baby. It's coffee It's all baby. Let's go. Wow.

00:06:12

Welcome back to it. That was so in sync. Did we get married?

00:06:15

Wait, what happened?

00:06:16

That was so in sync. You guys didn't even hear each other.

00:06:18

We said, Wow, exactly the same way at the same exact time.

00:06:21

00:07:22

I'm Heath.

00:07:23

I'm Matt.

00:07:23

I'm Mariah.

00:07:25

We're married.

00:07:26

We're married.

00:07:27

The newlyweds. Everyone's married but me.

00:07:31

I think we're all married.

00:07:34

Yeah, that's why I felt throughout the whole night, Oh, we all got married.

00:07:39

Amazing.

00:07:40

Really? It was great. I think that's why I was so happy. I was like, We're all married.

00:07:43

We did it.

00:07:44

We did it. It's so funny. Well, look, let's start from the top, right? It was a big weekend. I don't even know where to begin.

00:07:50

Was it smooth? Just getting there. We didn't forget anything left behind. Was the airport nice about bringing your dress on?

00:07:59

Please tell them that. That pissed me off.

00:08:01

Did anything go wrong in terms of just arriving?

00:08:04

The only thing was there was no closets on either plane. Oh. So I expected to hang it. So I had to take up a whole cubby and the attendant put it up on the cubby and laid it flat, and she closed it. I'm like, I don't want anyone to know that that was me taking up a whole.

00:08:22

Every flight we've ever been on, they have the closet to hang a coat or a dress or anything like that.

00:08:28

But I feel like a lot of... I I feel like a lot of bridesmaids, they do take their dress on the plane because they would...

00:08:33

Yeah, we walked in, I was like, Can we hang her dress? And she was like, We don't have a closet. We're not like those other airlines.

00:08:39

I'm like- Then she did this. Then he was like, All right. Then we pause for 10 seconds because we're waiting, we're standing in line. Then she looks back at him and goes, I can see you're thinking, is there really not a closet? She was like, there's really not a closet.

00:08:54

He was like, I can wear it for you if you want me to. He was like, I didn't even say anything. She was like, I didn't even say anything. She was like, I'll just wear it the rest of the flight. Don't worry. I got you, girl.

00:09:02

We felt bad having to take up one cubby for stuff.

00:09:08

It sucks because I know they weren't going to let you hold it on your seat because they would make you put it up. It's like, you You had no choice at that point. You couldn't go back to the terminal.

00:09:19

That was the only struggle with flying with it. If you are flying with your suit or your dress-I would just call and see if there's a closet. Yeah, double check.

00:09:27

You know what? They did tell me there was no closet. It. Then at the end, an older fella asked another... What are they called?

00:09:36

Flight attendant.

00:09:38

Asked another flight attendant. He said, My jacket. He goes, Oh, yes. He walks to the back and grabs his jacket and it was hanging.

00:09:44

So somebody else-I was like, Where was that?

00:09:47

I don't know. It was weird. I think the flight attendant was either divorced.

00:09:51

Divorced. Divorced. Just wants to ruin every bride.

00:09:54

We don't have it.

00:09:55

If someone came on, if a lady came on with a wedding dress, I would be I'd be like, Oh, my God, congrats. I would have helped her with a dress.

00:10:03

It was 50/50. People were either asking us so many questions. Where is it? How long are you together? Let me see the engagement. Everyone was so excited. And then half the other people were older women that were like, Lord have mercy. Me carrying my dress on was such an issue. I didn't even do anything yet. They were like, Oh, God.

00:10:24

That's crazy that they let out those-Out loud, huffing and puffing.

00:10:28

This one lady huffed and puffed, and he was standing there in his seat, and he looked over at her and said, Is there a problem? There you go.

00:10:36

Yeah, he did. She was huffing and puffing out.

00:10:38

She didn't know he was with me.

00:10:39

She was setting the dress up top, and then the lady is standing at the front, getting ready to walk on the plane. She goes, Oh, here we go. Lord have mercy. She didn't know that I was standing there with her. I went, I popped, Matt, this far away, face to face. I go, Is there a problem?

00:10:58

She kept looking straight and didn't even look at him.

00:11:01

Didn't look at me and I go, thought so.

00:11:03

I would have thrown up, That's my wife you're talking about.

00:11:07

That's my wife. That's my wife. But yeah, that was the only stressful part of getting there.

00:11:14

It didn't take longer to put up the dress than a freaking suitcase. It took two seconds, but it was the fact that I had to take up the space. I just wanted the peace of mind of them not having to check other bags because of mine, and they didn't.

00:11:26

Good. Yeah. It was clear. Everybody had room.

00:11:28

We treated to first class, so we just got that first slot, and we're like, all right.

00:11:33

Why not? Also, we didn't have a carry on to bring, so that's what we brought with us.

00:11:37

That was our thing, yeah.

00:11:39

It's not like we had carry on that we were putting up and we're taking like...

00:11:42

Yeah, that's what...

00:11:43

That was our item.

00:11:44

You're spacing Great. How many days early did you get in before your wedding?

00:11:49

I think only four days before, three days before. Nice.

00:11:51

We got into Pennsylvania, and then we had to drive to New Jersey where the venue was, the Pleasentdale Chateau.

00:12:00

Guys, it's literally the most beautiful venue I've ever seen.

00:12:05

Thank you. But yeah, it was beautiful. Everybody there, the staff, the level at which they operate was unreal.

00:12:15

It was really so accommodating. It made it so easy and special. My brain was off the whole week. I did not have to think. As soon as we got there, they took care of everything. I couldn't believe it. They were unbelievable.

00:12:25

That's how it should feel.

00:12:27

They had more employees than an Apple store there. I mean, It was just like somebody was there in every nook and cranny there, happy to help and make something easier. It was also such perfect... I loved the... It wasn't so much snow, but it was like there was snow on the ground.

00:12:44

It was the prettiest touch. The ponds were frozen.

00:12:47

It wasn't frigid, stupid, I can't stand to be outside cold. It was the perfect weather for your wedding. I couldn't believe it. It made just this nice, cozy just touch and hue and atmosphere to the entire weekend. I loved it.

00:13:01

Thank you.

00:13:02

I wish we could say we planned that. I know. We got really lucky.

00:13:06

You wanted the little snow. You wanted snow that you imagine that as you guys were...

00:13:11

We got to have the look of snow without it actually snowing and making things difficult.

00:13:16

Everybody got in safe, which was super important to us.

00:13:20

We drove over to New Jersey. We had to do a drop off a few days before for all of our menus and things like that that we printed, our name cards for table arrangements.

00:13:30

Just a reminder, guys, they did everything. Hita Mariah, they did all the cards, the nameplate, everything that usually a wedding planner would do. They did everything, so it just made it that much.

00:13:42

And my sister.

00:13:43

And her sister. And my sister.

00:13:44

It was so cool to see the vision come to life. But yeah, so we dropped everything off, and then we stayed at the hotel that all of our guests were going to stay at.

00:13:55

The one that we stayed at? Yes.

00:13:56

Okay, got you. So we got in and we did a pizza taste because we were doing the pizza party the night before. We ordered pizzas and tried to...

00:14:04

We were figuring out- From different places to figure out which one you should order from? So smart.

00:14:08

There was one that we had to try. It was rated by Dave Portnoy or whatever.

00:14:13

I know which one. I saw it. I have the One Bite app that is all of the places Dave Portnoy has been to around you.

00:14:21

It's called One Bite. That's his app?

00:14:22

It's called One Bite. I love it. When I travel to a new city, I'm always like, Well, has Dave Portnoy been here? What's the best pizza? There's a score button, and there was That one that was down at the end of the road. That was a 7. 8, I think, which is decent.

00:14:34

The one that we chose was Angelones, and I think that one had an 8. 8.

00:14:38

Damn right, it had an 8. 8. Oh, my gosh.

00:14:42

It was really good.

00:14:43

That pizza Some of the best pizza.

00:14:46

It was banging.

00:14:47

Healed me.

00:14:48

It was, yeah.

00:14:50

They had a fried chicken pizza, too. That was phenomenal.

00:14:53

They're known for their Thiny Thin Pizza.

00:14:55

The Thiny Thin and the Easy on the Peasy.

00:14:57

Oh, my gosh.

00:14:58

I thought that pizza had pees on it because I thought it was just a different type of different style. I was like, Oh, shit, that one must be the pea pizza. I love pea, so I was willing to try that one. What was the pea pizza?

00:15:09

What was it? It was like a... Easy on the pea. Pepperoni with the honey dribble. It was like one of their hot pepperoni, honey type pies. I had it. That one was really good.

00:15:18

Literally best invention ever. Hot honey on pizza. It's having the moment. Whoever came up with that.

00:15:23

It's having the moment. Hot honey is really here to say.

00:15:26

It's having its Nashville hot chicken tender. Yes.

00:15:30

Hot honey goes on anything. But if you have hot honey in your house, do you refrigerate it? Do you keep it dry storage?

00:15:37

Dry storage. Dry storage. Dry storage. In the pantry. Dry storage.

00:15:39

Squeeze out of a bottle or dish it out like Shechuan sauce? I like We had it, but ours broke, and her parents have one.

00:15:47

It's in a glass jar, and then you pull the thing and it drips out the bottom.

00:15:52

Okay, so like an olive oil?

00:15:53

Yeah, so the bottom of it has... Yes.

00:15:57

Oh, I've seen those.

00:15:58

You pull the little the top trigger thing and it lets it flow out the bottom, and then you let go and it seals it back up.

00:16:05

I like that. It's a nice little dribble, not too much flow. There's a little bit of control. It's going to get me some of that.

00:16:12

I know what I'm getting for your birthday, Mariah. I'm starting I'm really good at the gift giving. Whenever Mariah pulls out something, I'm like, That's what we do.

00:16:19

You know what makes it really good? When you don't say that out loud.

00:16:23

Step two of gift giving is not giving it away.

00:16:27

But really good. I'm proud of you.

00:16:29

I'm saying next time you do that. I won't do it now, but next time.

00:16:32

But I do really want this.

00:18:35

Pizza party goes down. That's great. It was such a fun time because it was great. It's a great bonding time. Also, just as a guest, where you bond with a bunch of other guests, too.

00:18:45

It was nice to have something the night before so people could meet for the first time, not in a loud wedding environment. They got to hang out and talk for a few hours and then get to see each other again the next day at the wedding.

00:18:56

That was actually a really smart thing to do because I feel like a lot of people do avoid wanting to be too social on the day of the wedding because it's a lot happening at once. Everybody was able to get that out of the way that night.

00:19:06

People created their clicks that night. Then the day of the wedding, they were all hanging out. It was like a big cafeteria. It was really cool.

00:19:13

It was so sick. Should we talk about what happened with our marriage license? Please. Basically, every single state has its own rules and whatever for getting your marriage license. Then it's within the counties of the state, and everybody's like, it's all different. When we were looking it When we got up, we saw that you had to do it within 72 hours of your actual wedding.

00:19:34

In the county that you were getting married in.

00:19:37

For this specific county. Okay. We saw that. We're like, Okay, cool. We're going in early to do the drop off anyway, so we'll be there within 72 hours. We'll just go get it taken care of when we go in. We just didn't think about it. We were just like, Okay, easy enough.

00:19:51

Good. This was the morning of the pizza party?

00:19:53

Yes. Did you have to get it notarized?

00:19:55

No, but what happened was we were just like, Okay, it's time. Let's go get We called wherever it was to make the appointment to go do the paperwork, whatever. We're on the phone and she's like, When's the wedding? Blah, blah, blah. We tell her and she goes, Oh, You have to be within 72 business hours.

00:20:20

You can't- So weekends don't count. I was like, But weddings happen on the weekend. They shouldn't know.

00:20:26

I'm like, Wait, what do we do now? She was like, You can just come in today. We'll make the appointment. She goes, But you're going to have a problem because this is technically against the law, and you can't get the marriage license because it's breaking the 72-hour law.

00:20:43

The only time they wave it The only time they wave it is if you're in the military. She goes, Good luck. She goes, You can go to the judge and beg. That's what she says.

00:20:54

Ethan List. He's just like, Do it for my God, my country, and my soon to be wife.

00:20:59

You're coming in in your army of area.

00:21:01

Oh, my gosh. Nightvision gagoes. They're like, Sir, he's going through this.

00:21:07

He gets baptized, signs up for the army.

00:21:10

Yeah, get it.

00:21:11

We do what?

00:21:13

We go to that first place. We do all the paperwork with the lady, and she goes, Good luck. Now you have to go make an appointment with a judge.

00:21:21

And beg. She goes, Just beg. Where does he live? Okay, right? Literally. Fruit basket.

00:21:26

On the ring cam.

00:21:27

So she was like, Don't count on it. But yeah, you should just go try whatever. Yeah, but guys- So we make this appointment. We're driving to Newark now to go to the courthouse.

00:21:42

So we're going back to Newark.

00:21:44

This has to be all the same day.

00:21:45

West Orange, Judge.

00:21:46

Yes. So that was the first day, and then they were closed that day. So then we had to go the following morning. Got it. Okay. We show up and we walk in. We have this whole appointment thing to go meet with the judge.

00:21:57

First of all, we get We're going through security. I bring my cousin, Rebecca. I'm like, We need a witness. I don't know what we're doing. We walk into the courts. We're going through security. Not once did they ask for anybody's ID.

00:22:13

It was very strange.

00:22:13

It was very strange. Then we get up to... We get escorted by a police officer, a court officer, and we walk in, and it's literally like Judge Judy, this huge court.

00:22:29

What are you I'm wearing normal clothes.

00:22:31

I literally thought about that. I'm like, should I have dressed nice?

00:22:35

In my veil, a sash.

00:22:39

Anything to sell it.

00:22:40

Can we wrap this up? I'm getting married to this man.

00:22:44

It's so funny you had Reb as a witness because God help you guys.

00:22:49

Oh, help us, please. But also, Reb is so funny and loud.

00:22:52

She doesn't stop. When we walked in, we got escorted by the court officer. She goes, Can I record? Because we're like, It's Can I record? And he goes, I think so. And then we go, and the door we walked through says, Absolutely no recording, film, nothing. And he was like, Oh, then I don't know. So we walk in, and she's sitting there, and we're sitting at the front table with more miced up, cameras facing us.

00:23:18

It's legitimately Judge Judy, the whole setup, the judge up there, recording in progress.

00:23:24

Just like stenographer.

00:23:27

Yes, it's crazy. Then there was a woman She's even standing behind the desk, and she's asking us questions, and we're sitting up nice and tall. Like, Reb is being quiet for once, and we're just so up tight. And then we're trying to schmooze her a little bit. And the second we try to schmooze her, she goes, I'm not the one doing it. And we were like, oh. And we all were like, damn it. We just waited. It was so funny.

00:23:51

She was like, you can tone it down. I'm not the judge.

00:23:54

She was like, I'm not the one doing it. And we both went, oh.

00:23:57

She probably gets it all the time, too.

00:24:00

It's so funny. That's funny. So then the judge comes out.

00:24:02

Judge Marcella.

00:24:03

Love her to death. Wouldn't change a thing about her. Love her to death. She walks in and thank God, every time she asks us questions about the wedding, we answer it at the exact same time, the exact same answer. It was like, How many people? 250. Where is it? Pleasentdale Chateau. She looks up and she goes, They have good food. I'm like, Yeah, they do. I was literally like, You want an invite? You want an invite?

00:24:27

But also, when you're being questioned like that, it's like when you go to another country and they ask you, How long are you staying? Where are you staying at? You just freeze.

00:24:33

You get nervous for not getting anything wrong. We were prepared to walk in and be like, We had the fires in LA. We couldn't get here in time. All this stuff, that all went out the window. We were just messed up. We didn't know. She was like, So why didn't you get this sooner? We were like, We flew in this day, and we didn't know about the business hour, whatever. She's asking us questions. She's complimenting the Pleasentale Chateau. She goes, I've been to a lot of places. That's a really good spot. I'm like, Yeah. And then she goes, 250 people. That's a lot of people to send home and cancel. Then she goes, Good thing you don't have to.

00:25:17

It was like a TV.

00:25:20

It was like a skin. Oh my God.

00:25:22

She was hysterical. She probably did that for herself.

00:25:25

She was hysterical.

00:25:27

She was so funny.

00:25:28

The delivery that she had on this. She was having fun. That'd be a shame to send them all the phone.

00:25:34

That's such a judge response.

00:25:35

It was so funny.

00:25:37

It's a good thing you don't have to because you're getting mad.

00:25:38

It was so funny. We were like, really?

00:25:42

She had that answer in her pocket before you even walked in. She already knew she was going to- She wanted even just to build tension.

00:25:48

Oh my gosh.

00:25:49

She did. And give you release.

00:25:50

It was so funny. This is probably how she gets her fix. Yes. All day, every day, just doing this.

00:25:56

We literally invited her. I'm like, you're more than welcome to come to cocktail hour.

00:25:59

But you You have to be in your judge outfit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm the one that buried.

00:26:04

Was the next person just a criminal, though? And then she's like, You serve- Well, there was somebody coming in right behind us. You have to serve 12 years in prison.

00:26:14

So, Reb is recording. She's our witness. Yeah, we have pictures and videos. She looks at Rev like, What are you doing? What are you doing here? She goes, I thought they needed a witness. She goes, No, you're not getting married right now. And she's like, When do we get married? When do we sign the paper? We have to go back to that first lady in West Orange. She has assigned the paperwork. We're sitting there, she's recording thinking we're about to get married legally. She's like, okay.

00:26:38

It was just a really funny experience. Then we take it back to that first lady, and she's going through everything, and she's like, Are you guys cousins? I was like, I hope not.

00:26:47

No, she goes, Are you related? We said, No. She was like, In New Jersey, you can marry your first cousin. I was like, Oh my God.

00:26:55

You can marry your cousin in New Jersey.

00:26:56

I asked her and she said it's a lot of foreign people that like to keep it in the family traditionally or something. I was like, Oh, gosh.

00:27:03

Go get Game of Thrones.

00:27:04

Yeah, I got to fuck with that.

00:27:06

They didn't ask us in Alabama because apparently you can marry anybody. You can marry a dog in Alabama.

00:27:12

Oh my God.

00:27:14

All respect.

00:27:16

All respect to the people who married the dogs.

00:27:18

I don't know. I don't want to offend the people.

00:27:20

We love to be shown here.

00:27:21

But would you guys have gone through with a legally fake wedding?

00:27:28

Yeah, we had.

00:27:28

But we wanted to have had Yeah.

00:27:31

Then just get married when we got back to LA or something.

00:27:33

I think that would have been the best way to do it. Just don't need to tell anybody.

00:27:36

It's interesting in England for the one I went to, like Will and Ardent, they had the two representatives from the courthouse come to the wedding, sit at the altar at a table right next to them. So once they go like, Will and Arden are now married, they then go over to the table and they sign the marriage document. The person authorizes it. That's like royalty. So you do it right there. That's cool. At the It's so London. Yeah, it's a very interesting tradition. Okay, so you guys get the license. That's all good. You come back home. Now, is it the night of your wedding, you guys obviously had to separate.

00:28:12

Yeah.

00:28:13

How nervous are you? What's going on?

00:28:17

For me, personally, I know deep down I was nervous, but I didn't feel nervous. I think it was equivalent to being a dancer my whole life.

00:28:25

You're playing it in your head?

00:28:27

I rehearsed the whole year for the performance at the end of the year. It's not until I'm standing in the wing and they're about to press start where I start feeling the nerves. So I knew that's how I operate, so I really wasn't nervous. I was just more upset out, like separating. The next time we would see each other is down the aisle. That's crazy to me. We were up until 2: 00 AM, me, him and my sister, practicing our first dance. Oh, yeah. We're practicing our first dance.

00:28:56

I would have been like, you all go to bed. No, I was-2: 00 AM.

00:29:00

I think I ran on two hours of sleep that night.

00:29:03

I don't think they went to bed until what, 6: 00 in the morning, 5: 00 in the morning?

00:29:06

Yeah, it was late. But my nerves are different. To me, it felt like I had a final for a class, and I had this giant presentation that I had to do where I had to make a PowerPoint, and I have to present this thing in front of 500 people. That is what it felt to me. I was like, I haven't even started this project yet. The night before the wedding, I was like, it's that feeling of-Unpreparedness or a little bit of performance anxiety. It was more of that, the performance, because we felt at ease when we dropped everything off at Pleasentdale.

00:29:44

The few days before, they were like, You're good. We have it taken care of from here. You don't have to think about anything. We'll see you Sunday. So now it was just the first dance, the walking down the aisle, the stuff that you don't really get. You don't get to practice vows.

00:29:59

No, you don't. Again, you don't want to say to each other.

00:30:02

Yeah, you really don't practice anything.

00:30:04

You're just going with the flow of everything.

00:30:07

Luckily, the process of it all, it guides you through it. It's not like you have to, I don't know, have so much improvisational weight to it. But for me, it felt more like the night before Christmas or your birthday. When you're a kid where you're just like, It's such a big day tomorrow. It's hard to get your brain just to be like, Okay, let's shut down everything and just accept tomorrow's going to come.

Thank you so much hers for sponsoring this podcast. We love you.

00:32:02

I was so nervous for you guys about even just the walk down the aisle. Because even the group, I was nervous. I was like, Oh, my God, we're doing this 30 minutes before. I hope we get it right.

00:32:12

Our rehearsal was 30 minutes before the actual ceremony because we didn't do a first look to where we could take pictures and do all the stuff, and then you do the rehearsal together or anything like that. So we saw each other for the first time down the aisle. Right. That's why we had to do the rehearsal right before.

00:32:33

Now, day of wedding, you wake up. Mariah, how early are you got? How was it getting ready with all the girls?

00:32:39

It was really fun. We had a whole bridal salon upstairs, and the boys had a whole-We had a basement that had pool tables. A basement with pool tables, poker tables, shuffle boards. They had a barber shop, so it was very-All the bridesmaids bring their dresses.

00:32:54

Did no one forget anything behind? That always happens at a wedding where it's one bridesmaid left the dress at home.

00:32:59

The only thing that was fun was that they brought their dresses. Some people brought extra dresses. I brought two extra black dresses in case people change their minds. Brilliant, Mariah. They were actually hanging up all their dresses, and we were playing dress roulette where people were like, Can I try yours on? Can I try yours on? And they were mixing and matching. That's funny.

00:33:17

You're talking with the bridesmaids or the- The bridesmaids. The bridesmaids dress.

00:33:20

They got there at 9: 00 in the morning to start.

00:33:24

That's actually nice. I've heard some weddings where it's 7: 00 AM.

00:33:27

Every wedding I've been to, it's 6: 45 AM. Because there's so many people that have to get hair and makeup done.

00:33:34

You're in full glam for just hours. Hours. Just drinking champagne.

00:33:38

Hours, yeah. I'm just getting drunk already.

00:33:41

But then we got to the Pleasant deal at 11: 00 AM. Okay. Then we had that whole basement area. We were just all excited, and we ended up playing pool and shuffleboard and not wasting half the day, but we were just enjoying the camaraderie.

00:34:00

For guys, it's a lot of like killing time.

00:34:02

Because we didn't get to spend a lot of time in this little basement or not little, it was humongous. It felt like a giant Irish bar. The Dave and Buster's, you all got down there. It was like his biggest saddle range. If you took Saddle Ranch and put it into like a...

00:34:14

It was crazy.

00:34:15

It was ginormous. Yeah, it was wild. It was really nice.

00:34:19

The barber that you hired was really nice. He gave all the grooms a straight razor.

00:34:24

You all got fresh cuts? Yeah. Oh, good. We were looking at the photos of the video, and Patricia was like, Oh, my gosh. They have a barber thing. We were like, he's totally getting a haircut.

00:34:35

Especially in Jersey, all the barbers are insane.

00:34:38

His name was Daniel, Bello Barbers. He was so sweet. He did everybody's beard, hot shave, clean cuts everything.

00:34:46

And not a red in sight. No red.

00:34:49

I've never had a hot shave.

00:34:51

Matt, you have to do it.

00:34:51

I've never had a straight razor shave. You should do it. I feel like you got to grow it out a bit to get it.

00:34:58

It's so relaxing. That was what calmed me down, too. They put that hot towel on your face and it's steam.

00:35:05

The last time I did a hot shave was five years ago. The reason why I never did it again because the guy caught me up. I was literally bleeding everywhere.

00:35:13

Sweetie Todd.

00:35:14

I had red on my neck for maybe three days. I was like, Oh, I'm never going to do a hot shave again. If this is what it's like. I got it done. It was white. It was still white. By the time he finished, I was like, This is what a hot shave is. This was amazing.

00:35:28

That's great. Yeah, it was really nice. Then after we did that, we went up and we got dressed up, we got in our suits. Then from there, we went back down and did our photos in the game room and went outside to do photos. First look, you saw Mariah win.

00:35:43

No. Down the aisle.

00:35:44

Down the aisle.

00:35:45

Because the rehearsal, you were not there.

00:35:47

Yeah.

00:35:48

Got it. It was cute.

00:35:51

My bridal attendant, they were updating me on... When you arrived, they were like, The groom's here. I was like, No way. How does he look? They're He's wearing this. Then when you got ready, they were like, He's dressed. He looks really good. I'm like, Really?

00:36:04

That's cool. I love the way you guys did it where you don't see each other until the aisle. I love that.

00:36:10

Did you text it all throughout the entire day? We texted.

00:36:12

We texted the night before when we separated. When you went to your room, we texted a little bit.

00:36:17

Because you had the whitening strips and I needed one. I said, I swear- You're covering your eyes.

00:36:23

You're covering your eyes in the door.

00:36:24

I was like, I swear I didn't leave them there on purpose to come back, but can somebody run them down? So your mom ended up running down because she couldn't sleep either.

00:36:31

Yeah, my mom couldn't sleep. Then she ended up coming into the room.

00:36:33

We were hanging out. Yeah.

00:36:34

But before that, she stopped in my room. She was partying. Did she? Oh, yeah. We were smoking it. It was wild. It was a good time.

00:36:44

But then we had texted that morning, just like...

00:36:48

Little things, yeah.

00:36:49

And then the ceremony happens.

00:36:52

Yeah. Don't even ask me any questions because I don't know what happened.

00:36:55

She was running down here.

00:36:57

I heard I flew down the aisle. Yeah, Mariah, we all did.

00:37:02

You all were quick. To the point where no, I was like, slow down. I was about to say something to be like... Everyone was like, go get your man.

00:37:11

I didn't know I did until after. Yeah, I saw that too.

00:37:14

Go get your man. She's flying down the aisle.

00:37:16

You were not too fast, but you were walking with the purpose.

00:37:20

Yeah, I had tunnel vision. I was like, only him.

00:37:23

What happened is there was the ceremony room, which was that long walk to get down to it. But before that, it there's an even longer walk that's an uphill ramp. Right.

00:37:33

So your momentum-We were moving up the ramp.

00:37:37

It was like almost being at an airport where you're on the treadmill and then you get off and then you keep going faster. We were walking uphill to get going, and then that speed just carried through into the flat and we were just going.

00:37:49

But also in the back of my head, you guys needed the sunlight outside to take pictures after before your first look or for those?

00:37:56

We wanted as much time as we could have for our photos once we got married. It was great.

00:38:02

That ceremony felt like 15 minutes.

00:38:04

Tell me about it. You don't say.

00:38:06

Yeah, it was nice because I knew you guys really needed to take your pictures after. I think we all were on the same page mentally about that.

00:38:13

We're like, Yo, let's hope this goes to at your wedding because I knew it was going to be short and well-lived. Sometimes I do wedding bingo. Do you know what this is? No. You make bingo? Yes. But instead of numbers and all the cards, you write vows, god, family, husband, You do all the cliché words, and so you just listen to everything, and then you start circling the words when they're being said. Oh, that's funny. It's a great way to pass time if you're at a wedding of someone who you don't care about.

00:38:42

But you're also paying attention, too. You're paying attention to what they're saying.

00:38:45

You're like, cool.

00:38:46

I feel like that's something Mariah would play at a wedding.

00:38:48

Well, I played it in my bridal shower. Oh, you did? We played Bingo, but you wrote down different gifts that I would get. If I opened that gift, like pots and pans, they were like, yes. Got it.

00:38:59

Did you have a table of gifts at the wedding?

00:39:02

There was cards. For my bridal shower, I got our registry gifts. All the stuff were around the house and stuff. I did that for my bridal shower. The wedding is just cards.

00:39:11

Okay, because I didn't notice that he was like- Wait, those cards are for you guys?

00:39:15

I thought they were for us.

00:39:16

Oh, I thought it was for us. I thought they were for us. You're grabbing those.

00:39:17

The party favors.

00:39:19

Don't mind if I had Zoom.

00:39:21

No, but it's really funny because Santiago, the guy who was running everything there.

00:39:26

He was a character. He's the best.

00:39:29

He He was literally one of the funniest person.

00:39:31

He means business, but he's so funny.

00:39:32

He was flaring with everybody. Yeah. He's so funny.

00:39:35

He was basically saying that one time there was the bird cage full of cards that went missing. They got cameras installed to always have a camera on the bird cage, but it was the uncle of the groom or whatever who was worried that somebody else would possibly get into the cards and take them.

00:39:56

He was drunk, so he took them to his room.

00:39:58

In his drug mind, he's like, I got to hide these things. So he grabbed a bird cage. But yeah, it was really funny. Sorry, where were we? We got ceremony.

00:40:09

We got a ceremony where I walked down the aisle. Isn't it such a strange sight? Or it's what's It was a beautiful sight, but you get so nervous because you're like, I'm about to witness something I'm about to remember for the rest of my life.

00:40:21

I literally felt like I was dreaming the entire time.

00:40:27

Yeah, it felt very out of body. It feels like you're high. Yes, I had a body rush, head rush the entire time. I will say it did help. I had the blusher, so the veil that went over my face. That helped me a lot because it felt like... You know when you have sunglasses and a hat on, you feel like no one could see you? That's what I felt like. I was just looking at him the whole time. I don't know who was sitting where. I did not look around at all, but I was definitely like, Am I about to pass out? I felt really dizzy.

00:40:56

Isn't it wild when you see each other? You the first thing you want to do is I haven't seen you all day. Okay, wait, we have to do this thing.

00:41:06

I'm going to start the male veil trend. Okay. Where guys were vealed to. It's very helpful. Because I could barely see you through that veil. I'm like, I know she's loving this. She can't. Nobody can see her. When I was walking down the aisle with Madison, I hated it. So I hate when everybody's looking you like that.

00:41:26

It's everybody's just watching you. Oh my God.

00:41:27

You guys were first. What? You guys were first.

00:41:29

We We were second or something, but my God. That veil was perfect for you.

00:41:35

Your dress looked fantastic.

00:41:36

Yeah, your dress was amazing.

00:41:37

Thank you.

00:41:38

Loved it. And your hair, phenomenal.

00:41:40

Yeah, it looked really nice. It's cool to finally see what her dress looked like. Then she showed me after we got married, what the dress started like and all the custom stuff that she had done to it with adding the roses made out of the same material of the dress, the extra fabric.

00:41:58

I bought the dress at Carosa Bridal in Glendale. It was a bridal in Glendale, and it was a regular strapped dress, so it went on top of my shoulders, and there was nothing on it. Then I brought it to our seamstress, Encino Taylor, who custom made his suit from scratch. I was like, I want them to do my dress. I have this vision. I said, Let's drop the sleeves and let's add roses. She ended up calling the bridal store I got my dress from and said, Do you have extra fabric from her dress? They got in contact and they gave her the actual fabric and made the flowers, which was so above and beyond and so cool. They really, really killed it.

00:42:35

It feels like something you have to do. You have to call both and be like, Hey, can he send the fabric to...

00:42:40

Yeah, they did it. That's amazing. It was amazing. It's really exciting that it's both of our outfits were one of one. It's just so cool.

00:42:48

Did you both have tunnel vision to each other at the ceremony?

00:42:51

They stayed the entire time.

00:42:53

I think that helps, too. It did, yeah. Just focusing on one person.

00:42:56

I couldn't even hear what Michael was saying, our officiant, couldn't even hear what he was saying. I was like, I don't even know what's going on.

00:43:04

Yeah, I just felt like we were in a bubble, just locked in, and everything out was just spinning around us. It felt like when you're drunk and you lay in your bed.

00:43:14

The whole room spins. It's exactly what it felt like.

00:43:19

I thought I was going to pass out.

00:43:21

Yeah, I did too.

00:43:23

I couldn't see your face the whole time while standing back there. So I was doing fine. Perfectly fine. Perfect. A hundred %. I'm like, I'm good. I'm good. I'm seeing the girls. I'm like, all right. I'm sitting there listening, listening. All of a sudden, he starts having Keith and Mariah say, repeat. Our vows, yeah. Immediately, the second I heard Heath go, I need your voice.

00:43:54

Waterworks.

00:43:56

Oh, my God.

00:43:57

It's happening.

00:44:00

Because, again, I couldn't see his face, so I had no idea how he looked. That got me. We were both crying the whole time. I was like, Get me out of here. This is embarrassing. Thank God your brother was holding Landon because he was covering my face. I was like, I was bored.

00:44:17

We got Zane to happy cry for the first time in his entire life.

00:44:22

I don't happy cry. You're not thinking he's capable. I don't do it. I did for the first time, and it kept going. It's in you.

00:44:27

It doesn't stop. It really sucks. That really sucks.

00:44:30

Before we continue, we want to give a big thank you to our next sponsor of this podcast, Betterhelp.

00:44:34

Think about your favorite leaders, mentors, and idles. They don't have all the answers, but they do know when to ask questions or seek support from the community. In a society that glorifies hyperindependence, it's easy to forget that we're all better when we have a support system behind us.

00:44:48

And therapy can be a source of support for any area of your life. It's time to shift the focus from doing it all to knowing that we're better when we ask for help.

00:44:56

When we think of good therapy, we think of better help. It's a fully online making therapy affordable and convenient, serving over 5 million people worldwide.

00:45:05

And Betterhelp has access to a diverse network of more than 30,000 credential therapists with a wide range of specialties, and you can easily switch therapists at any time for no extra cost.

00:45:15

Hear me out. Who wants to drive all the way downtown, sit in a cold waiting room waiting to be called next in a cold, cold little therapy room when you could be in the comfort of your own home? You could be on your living room couch, you could be warm and cozy. It's just the convenience of it is just unheard of.

00:45:31

It really is. You're going to get an unbiased approach to therapy where they're going to tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. You're not venting to your mom, your best friend, or anything like that. I definitely recommend Betterhelp if you want a professional therapist who is going to tell it like it is.

00:46:03

He did an amazing job. Yeah, he was really good. He was so good.

00:46:06

That guy, Michael, he also baptized me that night, or sorry, the next morning after The next morning?

00:46:15

Okay.

00:46:16

I wasn't sure when that was.

00:46:18

I was like, When the hell did this happen?

00:46:19

It was right before breakfast.

00:46:21

But yeah, we were going to do it in the pool there because they have this beautiful pool, but the pool was off limits for the night.

00:46:27

We were like, Oh, man. Is that the pool that they're... No, that was a hotel. When they said it wasn't available for the weekend, that was the last hotel that we were at.

00:46:34

Yeah. The pool that they had at the venue, we weren't allowed to get into.

00:46:38

Probably bad juju because somebody died in the godfather's or the Sopranos. Or Sopranos, someone died in there.

00:46:44

The ceremony was great. Thank you. Then we go into cocktail hour for us. Yes. Fantastic food. Oh, my gosh. You all had every dish all around the world at this cocktail hour.

00:46:58

I was lost. I wish we could see it.

00:47:00

And selected by us.

00:47:02

Unbelievable. Thank you. Best food I've ever seen at a wedding, hands down.

00:47:07

And just the way they set it up because it was set up throughout the whole entire venue, the whole chateau. This place was great because every room was different. It literally felt like you're in a completely different house going through this.

00:47:18

It's basically like an old 1800 castle with a bunch of rooms and things like that.

00:47:24

It was insane. And all the food, I just couldn't believe how much food there was. I was talking to so many different people First off, they thought it was the dinner.

00:47:32

That's what everybody kept telling me.

00:47:33

They thought it was the dinner. They're like, Oh, my God, is this the dinner?

00:47:37

Cocktail hour was when we got to take our pictures. We didn't have much time because it was only an hour. But it was nice because we took our pictures and then our attendance brought up basically a mini cocktail hour to our room, and we got to sit and try everything that everyone else tried.

00:47:52

It was really nice that we got to try everything.

00:47:55

I had no appetite at that time.

00:47:57

I didn't like it. It was so hard to eat. I tried a bite of everything, but just the energy, the rush, the nerves, just everything.

00:48:04

Toastin is just flowing through. You just had no appetite.

00:48:07

We were just trying to get it down. But I wish we could have seen the cocktail hour.

00:48:13

It was fun. You all had a bar, I swear it, every little nook and cranny, every little room I went into, I never had to wait for a drink at all.

00:48:22

Apparently, there was ice sculptures and stuff, too. It was insane.

00:48:26

And everywhere you went, every room was filled perfectly. There was not too many people in one room. It felt like a restaurant. Everybody was seated and everybody was in every room perfectly.

00:48:39

I did not even know about the back area under the tent with the light. Because I was like, Oh, guess this is just where it's at. And then someone was like, Where is everybody? And they go, In the back room? I go, What back room? And I was like, What is this?

00:48:52

It kept going. It just kept going. It felt like very mature too. Nobody was getting fucked. Everybody was just respecting the whole-It was a good social hour, too. A great social hour, yeah.

00:49:10

To bond with people who also you may know that you're not going to be sitting at a table with them,Yes. It was a great socialization time for the camaraderie to kick in for the main event.

00:49:20

How was the Espresso Martini station?

00:49:23

Amazing. Good. Okay. I forgot. You told me before that was going to happen.

00:49:27

That was the last minute thing we added, too, right?

00:49:30

I forgot about it until I saw it.

00:49:31

I was like, there it is. It looked gorgeous.

00:49:34

My mom said that there was a chocolate peanut butter Espresso Martini that she said was like...

00:49:39

Yes, that was the one that they were giving out where I was. Cool. Whose call was it on the mozzarella umbrella station. That was insane.

00:49:48

That was my goal in life.

00:49:50

I have never had a hot... Fresh Mitzadelle. I didn't have it. You knew it was good because every Italian around me was freaking out about it. I'm like, Oh, okay, this is good.

00:50:01

I think I'm now made of 80% Mitzadelle because that was every picture of me, I just have a plate of Mitzadelle. It was so damn good. That was the only thing I had an appetite for. It was so good. It was such a good call.

00:50:15

I could not get over it. The hotel didn't provide that, you specifically?

00:50:18

No, they did. They do provide it, but I asked if they have it.

00:50:21

Oh, God.

00:50:22

I was like, Do you have a fresh Motsida station yet? Because on the East Coast, that's a big thing that a lot of places have the fresh station.

00:50:27

When we were having the meetings and sit-downs with the people there. We got to talking about the family and everything, and they knew it was a big Italian wedding. They pulled out all the stops. They were like, Okay, perfect. So they were like, We need to have this, this, this, this, this They're like, This is going to be a hit.

00:50:46

They curated it to my family.

00:50:48

Then the main reception happens.

00:50:54

Before the reception, I walked by this table maybe 50 times, Heath, and I kept walking by. I'm like, Oh, there's our names. Not once did I think you had to grab it. Oh, the name cards? I thought it was just for looks. When we all do our thing, our shin tape, getting into the room, oh, we get in, which was amazing, looked great. Everyone's sitting in their table and I go, I'm like, How do we know? The first time, I'm like, Fuck up. This is my first fuck up. Where do we sit? And they're going, You didn't get us. You didn't get your side. I was the only person that did not pick up my seating.

00:51:28

Some people at the beginning were like, You don't need to get them now. Get them before you go in. Because some people were picking them up, but you could lose it. I don't know. There was some communication.

00:51:38

I just made a guess where I was sitting. I'm guessing I sat with Gabe and Austin and all them, right? The groomsmen, yes. You chose the right table. I chose the right table.

00:51:45

Did you like your table? Loved my table.

00:51:47

You had Remi Alicia. You had that table, right? Yeah. Those name cards, we had to do those twice. Make all of them twice.

00:51:56

Those are the ones that you're talking on the podcast. I wish. I wish I actually grabbed it.

00:52:02

We had to do it twice. We did it the first time, and the first ones I got the card just on Amazon, they were a gloss material. It had a matte gloss finish. Which was fine. The printer has settings for those, but for some reason it just wasn't working or cooperating. We did them one night. We ended up finishing at one in the morning.

00:52:22

Folding and cutting all of them?

00:52:23

We didn't have to cut them.

00:52:24

It was 5 hours of printing them.

00:52:27

Printing the names. The ink wasn't soaking into the paper. It was just sitting on top. We were like, let's just let it sit overnight. We woke up and it was just everything was a blob.

00:52:37

It just blended in like- It was 250 cards.

00:52:39

I'm like, no. We had to rush. Thank God for Amazon rush shipping the next morning because this was two days before we left or a day before we left. The day before we left. The day before we left, we had to Amazon ship another pack of just regular paper ones, and we had to reprint all of them. Luckily, we had a system by then, so it flew by fast.

00:52:58

It only took a couple of hours.

00:52:59

You guys should do this for This is for other people.

00:53:01

Write a book. It was really fun.

00:53:03

The whole process was so much fun that I can see people that work in that field, the bridal assistance that we had, unbelievable.

00:53:12

They were making me want to work there.

00:53:14

The job just looked so fun. Just being your help for the day, anything you need.

00:53:23

To make it easier for you.

00:53:24

They just seemed like they were enjoying it so much, the whole process and seeing how excited we were. It just felt really cool, the whole venue in itself.

00:53:34

The venue was the staff. The whole room where you got married in was so elegant, so amazing, so well-lit as well.

00:53:40

I imagine that cross there, by the way.

00:53:43

The $1,800 cross. I imagine back there.

00:53:45

I was like, Okay, I see why they... I see that.

00:53:48

We all get seated. As you know, with weddings, you guys have to make an entrance. You guys made an entrance as the groomsmen.

00:53:55

Like the walk-in, yeah.

00:53:56

All of that. How did you walk in?

00:53:59

We came and they were like, Introducing the bridesmaids. The bridesmaids all come out. That's how we did it.

00:54:04

We did it as the groups instead of doing two and two and two.

00:54:07

Right. That takes up-time.

00:54:09

I also didn't want anybody to feel uncomfortable that they have to go make up this dance move to go walk out, and then they have to do a bop or a thing. It always feels like such a gimmick. I wanted everybody to just go as a group, not feel the pressure of having the entrance.

00:54:24

Thank you for that.

00:54:25

Creatively.

00:54:26

Like, Oh, I throw a bell. Yeah, it's Yeah.

00:54:30

That was considerate. Then you guys entered, and you all went straight into first dance, right?

00:54:35

Yes. You guys walked out to Space Jam.

00:54:39

I didn't even like, get off this live.

00:54:43

Yes, that's what it was.

00:54:44

These are the moments where you're the only ones that are going to worry about songs because I don't even remember the song.

00:54:51

No, you're right, because when we were picking the songs with the DJ, there was moments where we were like, We don't know if we should do this song or this song. He goes, Listen, in the moment, you're not even going to hear the music. Half the people didn't even realize that the bridal party walked down to Greatest Showman for the ceremony. I did a violin version of it. For the ceremony. But the people who... Most of the people that were sitting in the audience I guess you could call them, they were like, Oh, my gosh, this is so cool. But the bridal party was like, you don't even realize. He said that. He was like, Don't get hung up on the song. He goes, Pick a song that you like, but don't get hung up on it because you're not even going to hear them in that No, but yeah.

00:55:31

It's one of those ones you think everyone's going to focus on, and they don't.

00:55:33

Also, the whole night, it hit me that speeches wouldn't have even made sense in this setting.

00:55:39

You're so right. I thought the same thing.

00:55:40

You know what I mean? That would have honestly slowed it down by A hundred.

00:55:45

Oh, yeah.

00:55:46

It was the perfect incline the whole night.

00:55:49

Yeah, it was a party, party, party.

00:55:51

And you all's interest was fantastic. Your dance, phenomenal. You know what? I didn't even realize until I saw the photos, that you all had a fog machine underneath guys. Oh, yeah. You didn't notice? No, because where I was seated, I couldn't... Well, I even think I was in my chair, which it was... Was I in my chair? I can't remember, but I couldn't see it until I saw the photos.

00:56:12

It was the low fog around the ground. Nice touch.

00:56:16

Yeah, that looked really nice, the fog. You would think in your head like, Oh, that could look cheesy, but it was nice.

00:56:26

It's the way the DJ did the lighting with it. If If it would have been like, boom, spotlights, and it lit the whole... It was almost like no lights with just a very subtle light showing the fog and then on us.

00:56:39

Then the sparklers for the big moments of the song was perfect.

00:56:42

I love that you guys actually played the entire song, too.

00:56:46

I didn't realize we did, and I was like, wait, we actually did almost the entire song.

00:56:50

The only thing we cut was the very end. We did Stephen Sanchez, B-More. At the very end, it's like the super high pitch.

00:56:59

B-more That whole thing, we cut it right before that. No hate to Steven, baby. We love this. We still love the whole song.

00:57:08

That's my favorite part of the song. And honestly, would have been the perfect part of the song to do the big-The sparklers. Sparkler I like that stuff. But for the sake of everybody there, the screaming high pitch, we're like, Let's just keep it soft.

00:57:23

It was so crazy that you would have a whole dance, like 45-minute party every time an Appetizer came. So a salad would come out, we eat our salad. All right, everybody get on the dance floor. 45 minutes. I was beat. I was like, by that first session, I came back.

00:57:41

Zane was drenched.

00:57:41

I was like, Guys, I can't do this anymore. I went outside to cool off for 20 minutes. I was there out there for 20 minutes. That's when all the Florida people came out. It was Katie, Amanda, and Bob. We caught up when I was resting outside. That's nice. We had the not five, four people out there. That was really sick. The not five, four crew. That was really sick. The not five, four people.

00:57:59

Yes, DJ It was fantastic. It was the perfect mix of songs, too, where I felt like I got to hop around to all the best bits of my favorite songs, too.

00:58:07

Big shout out to Anthony.

00:58:08

It was a perfect mix.

00:58:11

Yeah, Anthony had Eclipse Events. Thank you so much. He's really good at reading a room. Yes. Really good at knowing what's going to work. He reads the crowd.

00:58:19

Also where his stage presence of being the DJ booth was so elevated and so nice. It wasn't like a guy at a table over in a corner.

00:58:29

Yeah, Yeah.

00:58:30

He was a really good... Being a really good emcee was important to us, too. He was able to direct people and tell people exactly what's going on, where you need to be and what's happening next. It was amazing. Everything was just seamless.

00:58:45

I love that.

00:58:46

00:59:39

Uncle David, I was so excited.

00:59:41

I'm so happy you finally got to meet them. Oh, my gosh. But I met him, Keith, for two seconds.

00:59:46

I know. We literally were walking by, I'm like, Uncle David, how are you doing? We hugged. I didn't see him for the rest of the time. He's an animal.

00:59:51

He has worked to do what?

00:59:53

He was overwhelmed. He came up to me. He goes, I'm getting recognized left and right. He liked He really liked Alicia. He goes, I can't believe it. Everyone recognizes me. There's so many people coming out to me. I don't know where to be.

01:00:08

That's so funny because she talks about Uncle David all the time with all my friends, so everybody was excited to meet him.

01:00:14

He did not leave the dance for.

01:00:15

He's an animal.

01:00:16

I never got. I don't think my mom and Uncle David met. No. I don't think not once.

01:00:20

I wanted your mom to meet my two single uncles who are brothers. Pick one. I didn't get to meet her.

01:00:26

I had one that was in Florida. Yeah.

01:00:27

There was not a moment where I was with him and I was with my mom at the same time because my mom was off making friends, too. My mom and Hadai were both off. I thought I was worried that I was going to have to take care of them because that's my family members. But I couldn't even find them.

01:00:42

Yeah, they made friends.

01:00:43

Yeah, they made friends. And Maggie's dad, coming out, juggling with the balls. I was like, what?

01:00:49

Not just him. I did tell him to bring all his stuff. I said, bring the stuff. And he goes, I got you.

01:00:55

Bring the entertainment. I could tell that you told certain people, do your thing on the dance floor.

01:01:00

Yeah, I had to tell my student, Evan, the one that was flipping over everybody. That was crazy. I said, Evan, why are you just standing here?

01:01:06

Most insane dancer.

01:01:07

His entire life since he was five years old, he's been battling. That's his thing. He battles people. I'm like, get in the dance floor and battle. Don't He was really shy. He didn't want to show off. I'm like, this is the right crowd.

01:01:17

You did it. It's crazy. I know.

01:01:20

Then he was throwing backflips, landing in splits, going crazy with me.

01:01:24

That jump, backflip and landing on us. I was like, what? I couldn't believe.

01:01:29

I saw a video. He's He was doing head spins.

01:01:31

Did you see him on the dance floor?

01:01:33

No, I didn't catch that part.

01:01:34

On the upside down on his head, spinning like this. It was... Oh, wow.

01:01:39

Yeah, he's amazing. He's really good.

01:01:40

My least favorite thing is when a big dance circle happens, a big one. There was multiple giant ones, and nobody's getting in. I had to keep going in. I was like, I'm tired. I'm done.

01:01:53

30% of the people were dancers. I'm like, hello.

01:01:56

This is your time to shine. I could tell you didn't know what to do. You got caught out there for so then you grabbed Ilia and threw him in a fucking-WWE.

01:02:04

Then he started teabacking him.

01:02:10

I was like, get it.

01:02:11

It was so funny.

01:02:12

People shouldn't be shy on wedding because everybody's on the But people need to see people getting in to get in. When it's really empty, people get really nervous.

01:02:20

Yeah, my uncle David was breaking it down. Yeah, I saw him. He was doing the worm. He was doing his little wing.

01:02:25

I love the balcony where you guys went up. That was the We were finding the bathroom, and then we were like, Oh, there's this view.

01:02:34

Let's look down. There was a security guard sitting there all night to make sure nobody was going up there, but this was our room. We went up and our bridal tendon told the security guard, Move, they're going there. We stood there and I was waiting for people to notice. Then once one person noticed, everybody turned around. I'm like, This is one of the coolest moments of the night, and it wasn't even planned. That was one of my favorite moments.

01:02:54

I wrote that down where I'm just like, I love that whole balcony bit.

01:02:57

One of my favorite moments that wasn't planned.

01:02:58

It happened in the middle the They Not Like Us song. I was just trying to bring that up. It was perfect.

01:03:04

It was literally everyone was like, A minor. Then you look up and Hitham Mariah at the top of the-We're like this. It was perfect because we were running up the stairs and we heard the song play.

01:03:15

I'm like, this was the one song that I added that's today's hit. I was like, this has to be played because it's so fun right now and everybody will sing along to it. As soon as we left and we started walking up the stairs and started playing, I'm like, no, this is the one I wanted to actually see. But we really had to the bathroom, so we went up, and then we got there at the exact moment of A minor, and we were like, Hey.

01:03:36

Kendrick would have loved that scene. He would have loved that.

01:03:39

The DJ transitioning that song into a Drake song. Yes.

01:03:42

Come on. Perfect. You can't write this shit.

01:03:45

You can't write this shit. But you can mix it.

01:03:48

You all had some fun tunes, too, towards the end. You were playing Creed. Will you take me? Well, that was you. There were some wild cards in there that were like, You've had so many drinks, you're like, yes.

01:04:02

This is what I want. The amount of people that came up and said, Creed, let's go.

01:04:07

Nice touch. It was so funny.

01:04:08

Because in my head, I was prepared for all of Mariah's music. But as soon as I heard Shania Turing. I was like, Oh, I forgot. Heath has a say in these songs, too.

01:04:18

We added chicken fried. All the songs that people will sing along to. Yeah, great little mix. A lot of Justin Bieber. My bad.

01:04:26

Oh, my God. He has a lot of wedding songs in there. Serena holding up her three-week-old baby. Oh my gosh.

01:04:35

I was like, Serena.

01:04:36

There was a time where I thought that was a doll.

01:04:41

There was one moment where that baby got a little loose around, and I was like, Is that a child?

01:04:47

I thought it was a rag doll.

01:04:48

I didn't know what it was. People were posting the video and people were commenting, I thought that was Dean.

01:04:52

She's such a little peanut.

01:04:56

She's my third flower girl. I said If she's born before the wedding, throw her in white. She was like, perfect. She did that, and she was just throwing her up in the air. People were like, The mom police are going to love this. She's fine.

01:05:11

It's an Italian wedding. It's a thing.

01:05:13

It was so funny.

01:05:14

She was sleeping the whole time, though, with the headphones on.

01:05:16

Yeah, she killed it. Not a peep out of her.

01:05:19

Yeah, food, main food, Grace.

01:05:21

Yeah. As soon as you got in, they had the little Appetizer salad thing, and then it was like, dance for 45 minutes to an hour, and then it was the plated meal. Yeah, you guys had...

01:05:31

It was a nice rhythm to it. It had a good flow. I didn't feel like...

01:05:34

I didn't feel like I was like, Okay, what's next? Hello, what's next? We're just sitting here.

01:05:39

Oh, there was one song that I heard that was... So this wasn't playing when everybody was dancing. It wasn't like a DJ song. It was a song that was playing in the background while everybody was eating. It was definitely like downtime.

01:05:49

We got to select all of those. So we got to pick what songs to play during dinner.

01:05:54

God, okay. So there's one song that I thought you had in the Do Not playlist that I heard, and it was the- What was that?

01:06:00

What was that, Anthony?

01:06:01

What was that? It was the Lady Gaga and Bruno song.

01:06:03

No, that was what we were deciding between for our first dance.

01:06:05

We almost made that our first dance song.

01:06:07

I thought that was in your Do Not Play.

01:06:09

No, we really liked that song. We were thinking about doing that for our first dance or the Stephen Sanchez one. I'm so sorry.

01:06:15

In my house, I was like, Oh, I can't wait to debrief. They played a Do Not Play song?

01:06:20

The Do Not Play was Marry You by Bruno Mars.

01:06:25

Got it.

01:06:26

I love Bruno Mars, but that is run to the ground.

01:06:29

But no, so we still wanted to highlight that song, so that's why we had it during dinner. It was during the...

01:06:35

I heard it- He wrote that down.

01:06:37

Hell, no.

01:06:38

No, I immediately wrote it down. I can't wait. That's so funny. Because he told me to tell you everything that we... Bath throughout the night. So I was right. That was the only one on my list.

01:06:45

Oh, perfect.

01:06:46

That was the only bath.

01:06:48

And I loved it right towards the end. I didn't partake, but I just thought it was a nice touch. You all had a little cappuccino, Espresso. We had coffee station. Little coffee station. Oh, yeah. Which was popular. There was quite a lot. People were like, I was ready for that. I was going in.

01:07:01

That was very important. The sober couple, there has to be the fun little mock tales.

01:07:07

Yeah, their coffee was so good.

01:07:09

I love you had the yingling, too.

01:07:12

The what? The yingling. The yingling beers is a really old, I think it's America's first lager or whatever they call it. Oh, yes. America's like first beer.

01:07:18

Huge in Pennsylvania. Yeah, they still sell them in Florida, too.

01:07:21

But you can't get them in California. Right.

01:07:23

They're really rare. If you maybe had a bevmo, they might have a six-pack.

01:07:27

But yeah, the alcohol, you could order whatever you wanted. If you wanted any top shelf, it was included. Anybody could get whatever they wanted.

01:07:38

I had my Shirley Temples, but they made the Shirley Temples. They looked like cocktails because they had an orange on it. They said a lot of people were coming up and they were like, I'll have what the bride's having. That looks good. They're like, I don't think you're going to want that. It's just a Shirley Temple. It was really funny.

01:07:53

One thing that I missed, the after-party, the pizza truck. You guys talked about it. Pizza truck? I talked about it, and I was like, this was after the night, and I was like, What pizza truck? I didn't see the pizza truck.

01:08:06

You all had good passables that were coming around.

01:08:09

Yeah, we had a burger, like, slider station with chicken sandwiches and burgers, and then there was the pizza truck outside. I didn't know there was an outside. I didn't go see the truck, but we got pizza brought to us. It was insane.

01:08:21

They were bringing in whole pies, too. But we had the whole pizza truck pull up that was right there. As soon as you... It had the outside patio where you could walk out where the heaters and stuff are. That's where everybody was grabbing the pizza. It was right at the end of that. But we didn't get a chance to go get pizza either. When we went up to the room, they had a full display of every single dessert. Our cake. A slice of our cake.

01:08:46

Five boxes of pizza. We were like, We heard you guys didn't get the pizza, so here's five boxes. I'm like, damn. So we stayed up all night eating.

01:08:54

When we got back to our room, we just sat there eating all the pizza, having one of every dessert. Did you try the Jell-O shots?

01:09:00

People were talking about that. I missed that. Yes. Beautiful.

01:09:03

I took one because I didn't know it was a Jell-O shot. They handed it to me, and this is when the dessert came out. So I thought it was a little, I don't know, a performance that was about to happen. It was like a little shot glass. You know how some desserts, they'll add whip cream in front of you or things like that? I thought something like that was going to happen, maybe dry ice. I was like, Oh, what is this? It basically was a little shot glass, and it had these little ice cubes in it with a cherry in the middle. I'm looking at it and I'm like, Oh, I wonder what they're going to fill with it. What is this? I said, What is it? He said, It's a Jell-O shot. I'm looking at the ice cubes and I shake it. The ice cubes are Jell-O. They made Jell-O shots that looked like ice cubes, and they had cherries in it. So you like... Oh, that's sick. It was really cool. It was alcohol. Yeah. Wow. Really, really cool.

01:09:50

There's quite a few items that I missed. I did see so much, though.

01:09:55

Did you try the ice cream cookie sandwiches?

01:09:57

No, I didn't.

01:09:58

No, I didn't. Those were phenomenal.

01:10:00

So that was when...

01:10:01

They were homemade.

01:10:02

I don't know if I told you, but when we were first going out there, he was like, What dessert do you want? He was going to make whatever happen. And he made those. He's like, Perfect. Everybody will get those. Fantastic. So good. But yeah, so the whole wedding thing, everything happened.

01:10:15

Did you guys ever drive off in your car?

01:10:18

Yeah, at midnight. You're going to die. Me, Ethan Zane.

01:10:21

You're going to die. Okay, because it was... Okay, good. Because I kept thinking I was going to miss it because the afterbar started. I go, Wait, is there something outside?

01:10:29

And then We wanted to drive it. We never got the chance to after the ceremony, everything, the night just kept happening. At the end of the night, when everybody was leaving, we were like, Okay, let's just go take it for a spin real quick. Do a little video, a little send off thing like that. I go get the keys because my brother had them. We go outside, everybody's filming, recording. The lights are on, everybody's excited. We get into the car.

01:10:50

Zane is in full producer mode. Everybody, you stand here, flashlights on.

01:10:57

We get into the car and I'm moving her dress because the guy was like, when I booked it, he's like, You drive stick, right? I'm like, Yeah, we're good. I'm trying to find the gear. I'm like, This is so weird. I couldn't figure it out. Then I looked, I only had two pedals. I'm like, Okay, so it's not manual. Then I'm trying to get the car to start. For 10 minutes, I cannot get this car to start. I'm getting like, auxiliary power. I see I could turn my lights on. The windshield wipes were spraying. I just could not get the car to turn on. I'm sitting there, I'm cranking I'm looking it and there's no sound being made. I'm like, What is going on? I'm like, Looking. Then I go to pump the gas as I'm cranking it to push gas through the system. I stop the gas as I'm cranking it and the car jumps forward.

01:11:46

While my mom is in front of my car.

01:11:48

I almost chised from his mom. I almost ran his mom over.

01:11:51

Oh my gosh. Can you imagine it?

01:11:53

It was inches.

01:11:54

It was very close.

01:11:56

I was like, what? The car was electric motor-swapped, so it was on the whole time. He had no idea.

01:12:06

Why didn't they let you know? You know how to drive manual, right? He said, yes.

01:12:10

Nothing about electric.

01:12:10

It was electric motor-swaped. It was just like a golf car with the body in over it?

01:12:15

Yes, basically.

01:12:15

They took the old Porsche. They took out the engine. A lot of people do this with classics for some reason, but they do a Tesla swap, so it had a Tesla motor in it. The car is still- There was a moment when you were saying all this, and I thought it was like It was like a dummy car.

01:12:30

It was like a prop car. It was never meant to be driven at all. It was just like something to pose it. It felt like it. Crazy, though. So it had just been on the whole time and went dead?

01:12:41

No, no, no. When I was turning it on, it You can't hear when it's on.

01:12:46

It was just silent.

01:12:46

I'm sitting there trying to get it to go, and then I stopped the gas to pump gas through it, and it just went.

01:12:53

My mom was so drunk, she didn't even realize she almost got run over.

01:12:55

She didn't even budge. She just stood there. We did a couple of laps to get the shot. Nobody missed anything. We literally did it for Zane to get our video.

01:13:04

Also, I realized I forgot to get a horizontal one just in case. That's all right.

01:13:08

I'm sorry, I didn't stay for that.

01:13:11

No, it was after the after-party. It was after the after-party. It was when everybody was leaving.

01:13:16

Probably like mid, 1: 00 in the morning.

01:13:17

Yeah, there was only 15, 20 people out there. Everybody went home already.

01:13:21

It was just the people that were staying on the property.

01:13:23

Oh, right.

01:13:24

Okay. So everybody had already been back to the town.

01:13:25

That after-party room, I felt like I was at a membership Delilah. It felt so exclusive.

01:13:31

All the different rooms. Yeah.

01:13:33

I don't know. It felt like you were a celebrity in there.

01:13:37

That playlist was insane.

01:13:40

Yeah. I think that was the best night. The best part of the night for me was that after-party. That was really fun. It was sick.

01:13:46

Oh, yeah. There were some good jams playing, and I can't even remember what they were, but I was just like, Oh, I got them.

01:13:52

I got to a fight with one of your cousins for 15 minutes on mozzarella. You got it? They were like, You're not saying it right. You're not saying it right. I'm like, I'm trying my The video.

01:14:01

Sorry, we're not saying it right either.

01:14:01

The video of Giana getting you ordering the bacon, egg, and cheese, salt, pepper, ketchup at the bar is the funiest thing I've ever seen.

01:14:10

That is hysterical. So funny.

01:14:11

I definitely got your cousin's approval.

01:14:13

Them seeing post videos of me, I'm like, Oh, they like me. Nice.

01:14:16

Yeah, they did.

01:14:17

You were a hit. I know.

01:14:19

I love it. They're all so funny. So fun.

01:14:21

So easy for content.

01:14:23

I'm going to move there.

01:14:25

After we drove the car, we did our little lap, and then we went back in, and then that's when we went up for the dessert and the pizza and things like that. And then the next morning-Did you pick Mariah up when you bring her into the room?

01:14:38

Oh, I forgot.

01:14:39

Was I supposed to do that? I should have told you that.

01:14:41

I was like, get the shit off of me.

01:14:43

I mean, it's not like It's just a tradition, but you pick them up and you enter.

01:14:50

Yeah, right.

01:14:50

And then you.

01:14:51

Do it when you buy your first house, do it.

01:14:55

I think I would have gotten the ick.

01:14:59

It's It's like a good luck. I think it's more of a Jewish thing than it is a Catholic or anything. But I think. Yeah. I didn't know that. It's a tradition where you pick them up and you lead the bride's head in first with you, and it's your first time entering.

01:15:15

I will say the fact that we were sober the whole time, I feel like the night lasted as long as possible.

01:15:23

It didn't fly by to me. But it was fun the entire time. I don't know. Let me tell you, I really soaked everything in.

01:15:31

My come down.

01:15:32

Bad. I'm having our come down right now. I feel hung over today.

01:15:37

It's hitting me. Yeah. I hated... When you have such a high of a weekend, and I feel sober or drunk, too. You guys were telling me it was happening, you sober. I came back home and I was on my computer doing something for the podcast. I was like, this sucks. It was such a high energy weekend, and it was so fun to be with everyone. The last thing I wanted to do was come back.

01:15:57

Yeah. As soon as we got to the airport, my whole mood changed.

01:15:59

Did you go to Did you go to the airport the next day or did you stay one more day? Two days. Oh, sorry. We had a flight in the morning, so we didn't get to go to the...

01:16:06

The brunch the next day? The brunch, yeah.

01:16:07

How was the brunch? You did miss out. It was really good.

01:16:09

Oh, my God, the waffles.

01:16:11

Oh, my God. They had all different omelet stations, waffle stations.

01:16:14

What time did that brunch start?

01:16:15

8: 30. 8: 30 to 10: 30.

01:16:16

People showed up. I showed up on time. I was like, I have to be at this thing.

01:16:21

We probably had 100 people.

01:16:22

There was no shuttle, though, too.

01:16:23

Yeah, I had shuttals running every 30 minutes from the hotel. The little card you got.

01:16:27

This is a big thing he was talking about.

01:16:28

The little card that you got when you went to the hotel, it had shuttle information for brunch.

01:16:32

No, we had to know. We still couldn't have made it. We left early because Patricia, she didn't come back with me. She had to go to Alabama. All of this was a last minute change while we were there at your wedding.

01:16:43

The amount of Walker James, I feel like entered that brunch room was so funny. And I was one of them. I walked in, they were like, You were a hit last time. I'm like, Thank you. My voice, 100% gone.

01:16:55

They could not talk.

01:16:57

Were they going to be hooked up to your wedding?

01:16:58

No.

01:17:00

What was there? There's always some hookups at weddings where you're like, Wait, this person from my past and this person that you know from- Matt, there were, we can't tell, multiple.

01:17:09

The amount of love was in the air, Matt.

01:17:12

There was so much love. My cousins were high.

01:17:17

Bro, it was wild. It was insane. You all really brought the... You all brought it out of people.

01:17:24

It was a love-filled weekend. What's really crazy is before we got there, we mentally match in our head. They'd be good together, and it worked out. But they did on their own.

01:17:33

It worked out with... It was sick. The brunch the next morning, just all the fruit, the omelets, the bacon sausage. Amazing. Oh, man, it was perfect. Everything was what we were hoping for and more.

01:17:50

I also learned this weekend how many people in my family can juggle.

01:17:53

I didn't know your brother could juggle.

01:17:56

It was unbelievable.

01:17:58

You know the juggle where you juggled and then you He kept doing that to me. I was like, Wait, I'm mesmerized that you can juggle. I had no idea you could fucking juggle.

01:18:06

I know. You have two brothers, though, right?

01:18:07

I have two brothers.

01:18:08

Yeah, you have two brothers. Also, the day of the wedding, because they look alike, they went down the aisle, both of them twice. Oh my gosh.

01:18:15

Yes, because they walked my mom down. They walked them, right?

01:18:17

I was like, Oh, that's right. Yeah, they're brothers. Her brothers look alike. Then I kept watching people come back down, and I'm like, My God. I go, he look identical. And then another one, and I was like, This whole time, I was Like, are they twins?

01:18:32

That's so funny.

01:18:33

I just like, I could not believe my eyes.

01:18:35

It was a total magic trick. People said the whole weekend, they kept going to tap me, especially at the pizza party the night before. They kept going to tap me, and it was my cousin every time they would turn around because It was like, me and my cousins look exact... Those jeans are strong. We do look exactly alike. But it was funny. My brothers walked my mom down the aisle, then they had to go around and walk the bridesmaids That's what happened. But they told me, they're behind the scenes. They walked my mom down, and they were just going to go down the aisle. But at the ends of the aisles were all these plants and flowers. They said they had to climb over all... They were swimming through these plants. And then my brother said he finally got past the plants, but then he hit the string quartet, and he was like, holy shit. He had to go through the string quartet.

01:19:24

What's the string quartet?

01:19:26

The string quartet. The people that were playing the violin.

01:19:28

Oh, the string quartet.

01:19:30

Oh, your sister, Francis. Yeah. Her husband.

01:19:35

Ryan.

01:19:36

Great guy.

01:19:37

Yeah. I knew you would like him. Great guy. Yeah, so easy to talk to.

01:19:40

I met him right before the ceremony started.

01:19:43

That's a good duo. I met him right before the ceremony.

01:19:44

Yeah, you would love him. He was such a nice guy.

01:19:47

Very, very easy to talk to.

01:19:49

Oh, my gosh. Felt like I knew him for years. Yeah, he's really cool. So nice. He introduced himself to me.

01:19:53

Did you tell him your middle name's Ryan?

01:19:55

I did. I did. I think that was the second thing that came out of my mouth. I'm pretty sure I got my middle name.

01:19:59

Very good for Ryan.

01:20:00

It was so easy to bounce around and talk to different people. Good, good. Yeah, it was great.

01:20:05

Yeah, nobody's really shy in my family.

01:20:07

Yeah, it was truly a perfect wedding. It was such an amazing time.

01:20:11

Not my uncle, David. My uncle James asked about your mom after you guys left. I'm like, what the hell? He goes, Well, he goes, I just... He goes, nothing would work. Where does she live? I said, Florida, where he lives. All right. He was like, what? And I'm like, yes. Why did you wait this whole time to say something? I don't know.

01:20:31

You'll get her next time, Uncle James.

01:20:32

Yeah, next time.

01:20:34

Next time. What were your guys's pros and cons throughout the night? Not the pros, not the pros, the cons.

01:20:41

When you were saying it's difficult, make sure to stay together the whole time, great advice. We were side by side. We did it the entire time. That was good. The whole time. We didn't want to lose each other and get pulled in different directions. We made sure everything we did was together when people were talking to us, whatever. That was great. We got to experience the wedding in the exact same way. The only thing that... It's not a regret, but I wish we left the Sweetheart table. We got stuck there in a meet and greet mode.

01:21:14

Yeah, I I planned on hopping around from each table at one point and saying hi to everyone at the tables.

01:21:20

Usually, you should do it while they're all eating because they'll stop for you.

01:21:24

That was the plan. But people in the middle of the meal were coming up and forming a line, and I was like, I couldn't even to each table. We didn't even get to that whole side of the ball room.

01:21:34

Just having your foot down and just having a little bit more control of social moments. That's very understandable.

01:21:38

That'd be fun visually, too, for you to see every table.

01:21:40

Yes, that's it. We did not step foot on the other side of that ball room. That's what sing when you're like... Yeah, I wanted to see the bars in the corner because we had our- Make it around. We had our favors at the bars, the matchbooks and stuff. I wanted to see that.

01:21:53

I wish you got to see Cocktail Hour, that whole plan. I wish you got to go in prosthetics. It's a great...

01:21:59

You're a video guy. You had a guy go around with a video camera in the microphone filming. Did you watch all of them already? Not yet. No, we didn't get it back.

01:22:07

I forgot about that.

01:22:08

I did it twice. First time, though, I was a little like... I was like, I didn't have that many drinks with me, and I'm like, I want to do this later. The guy was like, I'm not going to be here later. Do it now. I was like, okay, so me and Todd do it?

01:22:20

Wait, Matt, I think he was saying that all night to get people to do it. Yes. Because he was doing that the whole night.

01:22:25

He did it later, and then me and Patricia did it together, which I had a little bit more fun. But I was like, right after I did my first one, I was like, I didn't like that take.

01:22:34

You know what? That guy probably did it once and never did that, and he probably missed a lot of people.

01:22:39

Now he's like, I'm going to start telling people I won't be here. You know what?

01:22:42

You're right. People kept... They would go up to certain people that I knew, and they're like, No, I don't want to do it. And then I tell... Because it does look like you don't know what it's going to look like, and I had to tell them, No, guys, this is going to look really cool. It's like vintage Mariah's cutting everything, and they're like, Oh, I'll do it.

01:22:58

Perfect.

01:22:59

I told everybody that you were cutting it. Perfect. They were like, Perfect.

01:23:02

I'll do it. Me and Heath got to say... He came up to us last week. We were the last one. Before I go, Do you guys want to go? I accidentally made Heath cry because I'm not good on the spot. I'm not good with speeches. I'm not good with saying what's on my So I was like, I don't even know what to say. I started talking to our future kids, and he lost it.

01:23:19

I was like, Hey, kids. And he was like, No. That would have got me, too. It was really funny. Thank God I didn't hear that. I would have cried again.

01:23:28

In That's insane.

01:23:31

I love that. What'd you guys do the day after? Because after brunch, everybody left. We all hit our flights. But what'd you guys do for that final day?

01:23:39

So after brunch, we drove back to her parents house, and my brother and his wife and kid ended up coming back to her parents house because they have family in literally a town that's 10 minutes away from where her parents live. Oh, nice. We just found that out. We were like, Oh, my gosh, if you're going there, come back with us. They We hung out. We had sheets, obviously.

01:24:02

Oh, wait. The gas station.

01:24:04

Yeah. So we had that, just hung out at the house for a little while, and then they went to go see her family nearby, and then just chilled.

01:24:14

We just unpacked everything. We went throughMentally unpacked. We went through some of our guest book, like postcards and stuff, and that was pretty much it. We had bacon, egg, and cheese.

01:24:26

Salt, pepper, ketchup.

01:24:27

Salt, pepper, ketchup. Disposable camera. There was one girl at the venue. Eva. Oh, okay. I didn't know you guys knew her. That's when I was. She's insane. She's a photographer. She kept on coming back to me, and she was like, Any more disposable camera? She was going around and working as a photographer, getting different...

01:24:43

The pics turned out so great from the It was beautiful. All of them, I was like, damn, this is a whole dump I just want of all these pictures. I was so happy with all of them.

01:24:50

Guys, when you have a wedding, make sure to have disposable cameras everywhere. You will not regret it. It was so worth it. You get the feel of a vintage all the pictures that you're taking mixed with that.

01:25:02

They turned out great.

01:25:03

That was good.

01:25:04

No, we came home, so I had 21, and I think we're only missing maybe five cameras. I don't know if some people might have taken them home, but we pretty much got absolutely all of them.

01:25:14

Okay, did you get the camera, the shots where you're up in the chairs? Yes. Thank God. All right. That was the camera I had. They were really cool.

01:25:20

We posted one.

01:25:21

150 photos.

01:25:23

From the disposable? Yes. Oh, my God. I was so worried about that.

01:25:27

It was so many that I'm like, Now we're waiting for our actual wedding photos, but I posted them yesterday. I'm like, these disposables are too good to be sick.

01:25:36

I'm surprised you got them developed that quick.

01:25:38

I know.

01:25:38

They did it so fast.

01:25:39

Photo City right there in Studio City. John, he's unbelievable. I dropped them off. He had them all Well, he all developed, scanned, and sent back to me every single camera in two hours. What? Wow. He's unbelievable.

01:25:52

Damn, that's insane.

01:25:54

Then Max, our photographer, Max Montgomery, he sent us 2,000 I cannot believe.

01:26:01

The next day. I thought he was going to send 300 pictures, 300 solid pics.

01:26:06

That's not even the film that he took. He's getting all the film developed and everything right now.

01:26:10

I can't wait to see them.

01:26:11

I'm really, really excited.

01:26:14

That's the most overwhelming part of the whole wedding is going through all the pictures and videos. Let me just say, because I saw a lot of comments, we did give everybody permission to post whatever they wanted.

01:26:24

Even the venue? Everybody. Yeah, even the venue.

01:26:26

But I liked what was going up first. It was just very It looked like people's magazine was there, like a sneaky content and pushing it.

01:26:35

Everyone's like, who is in there? David was like the first. David was like, boom. He immediately came up to us at the wedding and was like, Is it okay if I post early?

01:26:46

Do you want me to wait? And we're like, No, we told everybody, feel free to post. We don't care if people see stuff before us.

01:26:55

It doesn't bother us. That was the least of my worries that day.

01:26:59

Don't tag in Dale Chateau yet. Why? Because everybody will just sit. People just are showing up.

01:27:05

Hey.

01:27:06

Oh my God.

01:27:07

Hey, how you doing? Very cool.

01:27:10

I'm so happy for you guys.

01:27:12

A plus. If I give a grade, not a total Amazing.

01:27:16

We'll do a 20-year...

01:27:18

Renew your vows?

01:27:19

Yeah, where I was saying, Oh my God, I just want to get married next year. Instead of your birthday, just move it to your wedding. Do it again. Just move it to your- Another wedding. To your wedding. Another wedding.

01:27:26

Our anniversary is...

01:27:28

Yeah, anniversary You all are doing Honey Moon later. Because right now the Italian Jubilee is happening.

01:27:35

Well, it's for the whole year. We still want to do it this year, but we're going to wait six months for it to warm up and have better weather.

01:27:41

Even if the Italian Jubilee is happening, do it.

01:27:44

It's going to make it exciting. I know. I think it'll be fun. We've already been to Rome, too. That's probably going to be a hotspot, so we don't have to go there, but we'll figure it out.

01:27:51

We'll go to some cuter or tamer places.

01:27:53

Guys, we're going to have so much fun on this trip.

01:27:55

I can't wait. Are you excited?

01:27:57

I know he's making a joke Right when that came out of your mouth, I was just like, You are not going.

01:28:04

Well, yeah, you guys are going to need security. We're going to need a photographer.

01:28:08

Who's going to take our content?

01:28:10

Trust me, you're going to need me out there. It's just like the umbrella holder.

01:28:14

That would be really funny.

01:28:16

Guys, don't worry. I could be in a suit the whole time. I'm working, I got it. White glove. Yeah, white glove service.
