00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: This is where we pick up. It is our wedding day,

4
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: and it's time to head to the wedding site and

5
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 1: get ready. I've just read your letter. Well, it was

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: a card, a card, You're right, it was a card

7
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: that I found.

8
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: In my don You remember what it said? Or were

9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 2: you too?

10
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: I kept it. I kept everything. I've kept all your

11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: I cape all of Lauren's notes, I mean virtually all

12
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: the notes. Even she leaves these little silly post its

13
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: around and I try to keep all I probably if

14
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: most of them I keep over the five years.

15
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 2: I keep all of yours too. Actually, I've never asked

16
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: you this. Were you a note writer before me? Or

17
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 2: is this something that because I love to leave people notes.

18
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: I like to even like if my mom's in town,

19
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 2: already here a note, slip it under a door in

20
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 2: the morning or something.

21
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: You're more of a note writer and leaver than I was.

22
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: I am a letter writer. That's something that was. I

23
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: mean not to plug it, but I wrote the book

24
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: The Perfect Letter because it was based on my grandfather

25
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: Alfred Salinger who kind of taught us the art of

26
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: writing letters. And it was just impressed upon us at

27
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: an early age. If you have to say something to somebody,

28
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: write a letter, take the time to write something out,

29
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: and it just meant the world to me. And so

30
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: I've always written letters. My dad did that too. My

31
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: dad wrote me letters. My brother wrote me letters growing up.

32
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: I have them. My grandfather did. So They've just meant

33
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: the world to me. And so I've tried to do

34
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: that with my kids. For each big event and graduations,

35
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: I write them long letters.

36
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: You know what, You've influenced me in that way because

37
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 2: I've become more of like a long note writer or

38
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 2: maybe letter But I like the surprise element of it,

39
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 2: like I like to.

40
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: Well, I love finding your notes around.

41
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: I hide them in places and I hit a few

42
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: in your bag when you went to Pebble Beach out

43
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: of the wedding week, and she.

44
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,559
Speaker 1: There was one of my dob kit. And what's funny

45
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: is I usually will text her when I get them,

46
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: and I feel dumb sometimes because it's three days later,

47
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, son of a God.

48
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: I love that.

49
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: And so we we've left each other a lot of

50
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: notes and a lot of letters that.

51
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: We so do you. I'm not going to be offended. No, no,

52
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: I do you remember anything in that note or was

53
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: it too sort of.

54
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: No that that day I have a day I remember

55
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: vividly obviously your mom's letter, obviously about your dad and

56
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: the cuff links, and then I read yours and I

57
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: don't remember anything specific about it. Right now, I have it.

58
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: I have all of them.

59
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll tell you. I'll give you that. So what

60
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: I really wanted to convey with you it was a card,

61
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: and now I can't remember the hypocrisy, what the you

62
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 2: know what already came printed on the card, but it

63
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: was something about time and love. And so the wedding

64
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 2: gift that I gave to you was this watch. And

65
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: Chris wore the watch. It's this blue watch, and I

66
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 2: just love it because you know, he's got these blue

67
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 2: eyes and blue just is this color. It makes it pop.

68
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 2: But I wanted to surprise you with that watch because

69
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: he I know you love watches. But b and this

70
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: is what I wanted the card to convey is you

71
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: are my forever for all time. And so I don't know,

72
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 2: I've never I hate saying this because I've been married before,

73
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 2: and I don't mean to demean my first marriage, but

74
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: it's just that when you like, really, I think I

75
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: really I would my younger self. She didn't mean to,

76
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: but she didn't fully understand and fully grasp the foreverness

77
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: of marriage. I think you're young and you're excited, and

78
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 2: you you want to get it right, but you don't

79
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: really get it.

80
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: You've lived a little.

81
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: Life, and then you suddenly and you've been through more

82
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,839
Speaker 2: struggle and you kind of understand that more. And that's

83
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: why what I wanted to say to you in the

84
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 2: card was I wanted the card to explain that the

85
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 2: reason I gave you the watch was because my present

86
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: in my future are.

87
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: You in time? And it was no, And it was that.

88
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: So I got back in that Omega, beautiful Omega box.

89
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: They put them in these beautiful pine boxes, and so

90
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: I was.

91
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 2: Sitting there very heavy. My whole care Can I tell I?

92
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 2: Can I light the moon and talk about my carry

Speaker 2: on suitcase for a minute, my carry on suitcase on

94
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 2: the way to the wedding. Now, I will say I

95
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 2: did encourage you to go to Bubble Beach, but it

96
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 2: meant that Chris. He's got like his golf clubs and

97
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 2: he's leaving days earlier. So I'm at home and I

98
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: had to take a lot of wedding stuff. I had

99
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: to take my dress. I had to take a few

100
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 2: things of yours that I'm forgetting now.

101
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: Mainly it was all the jewelry.

102
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 2: Well, okay, so that was the carry on. So in

103
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 2: my carry on and I checked my dress, which felt risky,

104
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 2: but I knew. I'm like, if American loses it, I'm

105

00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: I didn't want to like carry my wedding dress through

108
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,000

Speaker 2: bag entirely for my dress. But I've seen people like

113
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,520

00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 2: have a custom designed by them. It's two rows of

160
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: pave diamonds on this gorgeous fourteen carrot white gold. I

161
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: think I could be wrong, and you have this beautiful

162
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: gold band.

163
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was not sure I was going to do gold,

164
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: and I chose this. It's a little bit would you say,

165
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: not rustic, but it's a little bit. I think it's

166
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: moderssed distressed. It's a little stressed gold and.

167
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: It's kind of a brushed gold with a more glossy yeah.

168
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: So it has a texture to it. It is a beautiful

169
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: texture to it. And one thing I can also tell

170
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: you is inside what I had etched inside, which was

171
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: something very important to me. My grandfather again, Alfred Salinger,

172
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: who is one of the idols and uh you know,

173
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: the patriarch of our family. His ring was a lover's knot,

174
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: and as each child got married, we all had lovers

175
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: not as our rings in honor of our grandfather. And

176
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: so inside this ring I etched a lover's not, just

177
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: as a nod to my grandfather, who means so much

178
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: to me. God rest his soul.

179
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 2: I don't know how they engraved it, but they.

180
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: Didn't, I know they and they had to send it

181
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: out to a special person who would engrave it who.

182
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: I don't know how they do that. It makes no

183
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: sense to me, but the the art is so it's

184
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: spot on, it's perfect. And again it's something that only

185
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: I will know about in you and we'll see. But

186
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: it's just I just I mean, but it's like no

187
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 1: one will see it. It's on my hand, but it's

188
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 1: just it's something I the ring.

189
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I well, now we can share. You didn't

190
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: think you were gonna know be a gold guy, and

191
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: I will say I kind of knew it on this one,

192
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: and I had to let you come to the conclusion

193
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 2: on your we went ring shopping. Chris kept saying he

194
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 2: wasn't gonna pick gold, but I kept thinking, of my mind,

195
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 2: Chris is such a classic guy. He needs a gold

196
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 2: wedding ring. I think the problem is you were sort

197
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 2: of picturing that very dated gold. You need it in

198
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 2: a more modern gold. But you kept trying on these

199
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 2: silver rings, and what was happening.

200
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: I tried platinum, I tried graphite, I tried silver, I've tried,

201
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: I tried everything. And I tried to be funky. I know,

202
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: I'm not like a crazy funky hipster, so I knew

203
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: that was kind of out. I wanted to be somewhat traditional.

204
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: But and again, it's like a dress it's like a suit.

205
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: It's like anything to me when I know, I know,

206
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: it's like marrying you. When I know I know. And

207
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: I put this ring on and I'm done. I'm not

208
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: one that if I walk into a house or if

209
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm buying a car, as soon as I see it,

210
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: I don't need to try fourteen more on. I'm good.

211
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: I know my decision. I'm pretty firm believer in my gut.

212
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: And so I slipped this on and I was like,

213
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: oh damn, Like she's right. I love this gold ring

214
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: so much. And everybody, because I had kind of made

215
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: the announcement to the jewelers at a Robinson as well

216
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: that I'm probably not going to get a gold so

217
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: we'll just do those later. Let's let's try this stuff.

218
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: And when I put the gold on, everybody laughed at

219
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 1: me because I they could tell I was just looking

220
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: at it and I didn't want to love it, and

221
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: I did, and so I'm so happy and I new

222
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,719
Speaker 1: classic man, you, and so I was excited. But then

223
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: I didn't you know, I didn't get a chance to

224
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: see it again because you went and picked him money.

225
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 2: Okay, So in my carry on two Omega watches. Yeah,

226
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 2: and I'll just go ahead and give the people the numbers,

227
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 2: because that's what's part of the intensity of this is

228
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: how much money I had in my carry on. Two

229
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 2: Omega watches were well into the tens of thousands of

230
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 2: dollars at this point.

231
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. The one I borrowed, I'll just say, because I

232
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 1: did not purchase it, they loaned it to me for

233
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: the wedding was a thirty seven thousand dollars watch, Okay, So.

234
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 2: I didn't even realize it was that much. Wow, Okay,

235
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 2: I was. I was olden onto this everybody. So probably

236
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: we're we're over forty thousand dollars in watches. Add in

237
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: our rings. That's taken us, you know, almost into fifty probably.

238
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: Then I had in the carry on earrings. I borrowed

239
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: earrings from m Robinson and Fine Jewelers that were these

240
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 2: gorgeous drop diamond earrings, custom designs by them, and those

241
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 2: were worth forty five thousand dollars. So I guess I'm

242
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 2: not great at math.

243
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: We're into the six figures were well, you said, over one.

244
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: Hundred thousand dollars worth of jewelry in my carry on.

245
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: And this wasn't like some red carpet situation where I

246
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 2: had a security detail with me. I'm just di y bride.

247
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 2: You had your mom, Donna, Well, Donna is a scary lady,

248
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 2: chures to be. That's a good point. I should have

249
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: felt safer. I did. I told her it was in there,

250
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 2: and if I had to go to the bathroom, I

251
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 2: either took the carry on with ears and Mom she was, oh,

252
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 2: I'm not leaving it, like okay, I mean she was

253
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 2: sitting on the carry on. Ye, So listen, and you know,

254
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 2: I will say airports are pretty safe. It's telling people

255
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 2: get their carry anstone all the time. But I had

256
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 2: one hundred grand of stuff in my carry on. It

257
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 2: was so heavy. So that was what I brought to NAPA,

258
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 2: because you had to carry your golf clubspell.

259
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: No, I didn't I ship sticks to book. I did

260
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: not have them. I shipped them back because I didn't

261
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: want to have them. So we have all this, and

262
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: so we exchange our letters. I didn't want to give

263
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: you mine until I wanted you to read it there,

264
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: and I wasn't sure how to hide that or do it.

265
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: So what I did is Josh and Taylor, our kids,

266
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: rode with me to the wedding site, which we had

267
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: at this at a private house there in Napa Valley,

268
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: and you were getting ready there at the house, and

269
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: so I had Taylor who came up and spent like

270
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: the last hour or so with you. I said, hey,

271
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: will you take this to LZ And so she brought

272
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: you my letter so you didn't get it for you know,

273
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: there's like two hours before game time is when you

274
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: got my letter, which was wonderful and it was it

275
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 1: was simple. It was just telling you how much I

276
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: loved you.

277
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you'd put a lot. You'd put a

278
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 2: lot into each letter up to that day. I actually

279
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 2: that final day, I was glad you didn't like throw

280
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 2: a ton at me in that one, because I all

281
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 2: right in my makeup, boll.

282
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: I waited. So what I did was I wrote you

283
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: all those letters before I went to Pebble Beach, and

284
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: I numbered them and gave you the date so you

285
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: would open them on a specific day. And okay, I've

286
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 1: never asked you this, honestly. Did you open them one

287
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: at a time on each day or did you open

288
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: them all at once? Okay? Because she wanted what she

289
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: was instructed to do was wait and open the morning

290
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: of each day.

291
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to experience it all like that. I wasn't

292
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 2: like a little kid on Christmas morning opening every present

293
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to, I really wanted, and that was a

294
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: big part of what we wanted to do in NAPA

295
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 2: again time.

296
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 1: Well, and I did pre write your letter on wedding

297
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: day because I didn't want to write that days before.

298
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: I wanted because I knew I was going to be emotional.

299
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 1: I knew I would feel things and go through things

300
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: with you and your family. So I wrote that the

301
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: day before because I wanted to express us being a

302
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: NAPA together and those feelings, and so I waited to

303
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: handwrite that one.

304
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 2: I've kept all of them, and I I do plan

305
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 2: to reread them because again, you're kind of I mean,

306
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,719
Speaker 2: I teared up, but I was glad it wasn't a

307
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: big long letter because hey, tip out there, think about

308
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 2: when the bride's reading it. My makeup was fully done.

309
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 2: If I'd really sobbed, it would have been bad. So hey,

310
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 2: way to produce your.

311
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,719
Speaker 1: Wedding pal, and so we produced every set.

312
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 2: I do want to go back to something really quick. Yes,

313
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: I asked you if you felt nervous the day of

314
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 2: you said no, you felt at peace. I was nervous

315
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: for it to go well, not nervous about marrying you.

316
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 2: And I actually had a really big realization And it's

317
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 2: a piece of advice I wish I could give my

318
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 2: younger self, and it's that I don't think cold feet

319
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: is a real thing. I don't think cold feet is

320
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 2: something that's normal, I mean, or something that should be ignored.

321
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 2: Oh it's just cold feet. Yea cold feet is a

322
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 2: red flag. And I don't think the day of your

323
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 2: wedding you should be super stressed and feeling super anxious,

324
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: like if you don't feel like I think what happens

325
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 2: is people might be really stressed out and they think, oh,

326
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 2: it's just the stress of a wedding. It's the roller

327
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 2: coaster of emotion. It's all the planning. But the truth is,

328
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 2: if you don't feel at peace that day, if you

329
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: don't feel this is awesome, and if you don't feel

330
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 2: like you know what, yeah, I have like the I

331
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 2: think the entire wedding planning process, you should feel like, great,

332
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 2: you're gonna throw a party, but I would marry this

333
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 2: person in my living room.

334
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: Rid you should the nerve should be in a good way,

335
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: that you're nervous about the great things ahead and wanting

336
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: things to go well, not nervous. Oh my god, am

337
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: I about to make the biggest mistake of my life?

338
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 2: And as much as as much well certainly not that. Yeah,

339
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: that's what I mean. Like but people say, oh, it's

340
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 2: just cold feet. Cold feet is a red flag, and

341
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 2: I didn't. Of course, I didn't feel any of that,

342
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 2: and I felt nervous, but like you know, it's also

343
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 2: important to I think, and I'm I'm not I made

344
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: this mistake before. You shouldn't get too wrapped up in

345
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 2: the party. I felt so good about the people we

346
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 2: had in Napa, the wine, the food, the beautiful setting.

347
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: I thought we're good to go. And I kept saying

348
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: I could spill red wine down my wedding dress right

349
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 2: now and I wouldn't care. The irony of that is

350
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 2: that we did spill some makeup on my wedding dress.

351
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: But anyway, that story, Oh yeah, I know, I know.

352
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: You told me it was like minutes before.

353
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 2: You were so funny, and I didn't freak out. It

354
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 2: wasn't upset, but it just almost felt like God said,

355
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 2: you asked I were getting ready we are about to

356
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: go and walk down the aisle and my sister goes,

357
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 2: don't freak out, like what look down down the front

358
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 2: of my wedding dress is I think foundation or concealer.

359
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 2: I have no idea how it got there, no clue.

360
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: Then it's the decision of do we try to wipe

361
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: it off? If we do well, that make it worse. Right,

362
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 2: And luckily my mom, thank you, Donna Zema had brought

363
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 2: a little stain remover wipe because hey, I didn't have

364
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 2: a wedding planner, and that is something I forgot. Wedding

365
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 2: planner probably would have remembered.

366
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: Rule number one, by the way, you should always have

367
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: the stain remover.

368
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 2: Yeah that was bad. That was my bad, but Donna

369
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 2: just dabbed at it. We hit it with a blow

370
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: dryer and it was a little bit there, but it

371
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 2: was fine. And yeah, so I did spill something down

372
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 2: in the front of my wedding dress, but I didn't care.

373
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 2: I was just happy to marry you.

374
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: You were so calm, so cool the whole week and

375
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: leading up to it. It was so chill and so

376
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: relaxed because we just it was fun. Everything about it

377
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: was fun. And again I think it's where we are

378
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,959
Speaker 1: at our station in life. And what I mean by

379
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 1: that is our age and our experience and knowing what

380
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,239
Speaker 1: to appreciate, knowing what to care about. It's not like

381
00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: you said earlier about demeaning and negating your earlier relationship.

382
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: You're not and I'm not either. It's I was a

383
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: different man. It's on me. I was a different human

384
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: being then. Yeah, I was a kid, and so I

385
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: just enjoyed it. I knew exactly what I wanted out

386
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: of that day, which was spend some time with my kids,

387
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: spend some time with my my friends, and of course

388
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: my parents were there, and then before the hour before

389
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: we got there are officiant, our good friend Mike Levitt,

390
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: who is just a very dear friend of ours. If

391
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: people are wondering who officiated or a wedding and why

392
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: Mike Levitt is his name, he's now People Magazine famous,

393
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: but he's not of this world. He's not an entertainment

394
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: in finance. The reason he was the unknown financi year,

395
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 1: he's not anymore.

396
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 2: The reason we asked Mike to officiate is he is.

397
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 2: He has the biggest heart. He is in his world.

398
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 2: He's spoken at hundreds of events. He's funny, he's he's

399
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 2: a big lover. He just and he nailed it. He

400
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 2: I mean, he is our officiant cride several times.

401
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 1: Yes and he so we asked him because aa he

402
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: and his wife, Nadine, the opera singer, are incredibly good

403
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: friends of mine. I met them post my divorce and

404
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: they became very very close to me and really took

405
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: me in and became counsel, friends, caretaker. It was many

406
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: many different hats that they wore, and we've taken care

407
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,719
Speaker 1: of each other. And then they were the first people

408
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: that Lauren met. She's there their yeah, the first friends

409
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 1: that I introduced you to. And we ended up going

410
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: to Cobbo with and.

411
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 2: So and I think that I've said this before, but

412
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 2: that helped me fall in love with you. Was it

413
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 2: made me like you even more that when I started

414
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 2: to meet your friends and see what kind of people

415
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 2: you surrounded yourself with, and they're wonderful.

416
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 1: And so that was a pretty easy choice for both

417
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: of us. If we had said, Okay, who do you

418
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: want to officiate on three one two three, we both

419
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: would have said Mike Levitt that was a slam dunk.

420
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: And so but I I knew that I wanted to

421
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: spend the hour before with Mike, my dad, my brother,

422
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: your brother, and my best man, my son. That's who

423
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,439
Speaker 1: I just We hung out down in the wine cellar.

424
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: You know, we weren't drinking anything. We didn't do any

425
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: shots or anything like that. It wasn't drink wine. We

426
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: just chilled. We listened to a little music, had some

427
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: country music on. Just very That's the way I like

428
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: to be before a show as well. Just very chill,

429
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: very calm.

430
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,199
Speaker 2: He has made the joke a few times that he

431
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 2: produced our wedding, and he did. I didn't in a

432
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 2: good way. I mean, listen, the guy's done a few weddings,

433
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 2: put a few on TV. So he's there like we did.

434
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 2: We did do a walk through of the venue, even

435
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 2: though we didn't do a rehearsal. And he's there and

436
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 2: he's like, okay, so the light at this time, let

437
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 2: me see whose eyes it's going to be at He's like, okay, babe,

438
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 2: you stand on this time we get married because I'm

439
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 2: better at dealing with the sun in my eyes at

440
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 2: this So we'll think about that, and Okay, where's Mike

441
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 2: going to be and how why does this ile need

442
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: to be for the I mean, really really helpful.

443
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 1: I know this because here's the thing. I know. I'm

444
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: a little aal retentive when it comes to that stuff.

445
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: And I overproduced because I know what I wanted to

446
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: look like and I know how it's it's going to

447
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: look great, and if I don't do it and then

448
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: it doesn't look great, I'm like, if I had just

449
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: said something, if I had just so, it's really for

450
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: me and my own neuroses if I just take care

451
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: of it and produce it ahead of time. And so

452
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: that's how I That's how I spent the hour leading

453
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: up to and then our wonderful assistant who's worked for

454
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 1: me for many years, Karen, came down and said, it's showtime.

455
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 1: Lauren's ready, let's go.

456
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 2: I need to tell you a little bit more about

457
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 2: the hour before for me. Okay, So, well, first of all,

458
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: I was nervous, But what would you guess I was

459
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 2: most nervous about.

460
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: Just your dress? I would think your dress.

461
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 2: I was most nervous that you would think I looked beautiful.

462
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: Really, yeah, there's no way you weren't going to look beautiful.

463
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,239
Speaker 2: Well, but you want that moment, you know, like we

464
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 2: did decide not to do a first look. We wanted

465
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 2: to be walked down the aisle.

466
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: Oh, that was really important. That's a good note because

467
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people do that first look

468
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: and our photographer asked us if we wanted to do that,

469
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: and I wanted the first look to be in front

470
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: of everybody at that moment walking down the aisle.

471
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 2: That's why I was so nerd.

472
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: That was important to me.

473
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 2: So that's so much pressure, which I'm not upset about it,

474
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 2: but I was so worried about Oh, I.

475
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: Didn't know I put pressure on you in that. Huh.

476
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: Thanks for letting me do that, because that was a

477
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 1: me thing I wanted. I didn't want it first. I

478
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: didn't want to cheat.

479
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: Well I wanted it too, but it but when you

480
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 2: think about it, like every here's what people want from

481
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 2: the groom. They want to see that he's emotional. But

482
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 2: how does the groom get emotional dependent on how the

483
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 2: bride looks. So I was and maybe I'm over simplifying

484
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 2: that and making it too much about the aesthetic. I

485
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 2: guess you love me and you would have been emotional

486
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 2: no matter what. But I wanted to be so beautiful

487
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 2: for you, you know, and I was so look like

488
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 2: I said, we shopped together all the time. Usually we

489
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 2: talk about we're going to wear before an event, an

490
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 2: event we're not Hailey Bieber and Justin Bieber, who apparently

491
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 2: don't talk about she recently said what they were two events,

492
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 2: but we coordinate. But you'd never seen the stress, and

493
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 2: you didn't know how I was going to do my hair.

494
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 2: And I was very worried about how I was going

495
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 2: to do my makeup that day and how it would

496
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 2: look and how it would be me but elevated and special.

497
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 2: So that was the most nervous, nerve wracking thing.

498
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 1: Can I and I just want to cut to the chase.

499
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: Can I talk about when I saw you? So it's

500
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: game time and we did a small it was small ceremony. Again,

501
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 1: there's like forty something people there, and we did do

502
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 1: a little bit of a you know, a procession where

503
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 1: we walked in and I, you know, Mike walked in

504
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: first and took his place. I walked in second, and

505
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: I tried to slow myself down. It went so fast

506
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: I was I was halfway down the aisle and it

507
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: was a very short aisle, but you know. I still

508
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 1: just was like, oh crap, stop man, look at your friends,

509
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: look at everybody. So I tried to take it in.

510
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: And it's funny because I'm really good at that in

511
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: television hosting, and I know to slow the world down.

512
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 1: When I'm hosting, I have control over that. I lost control.

513
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: I lost control of time, and I don't lose control

514
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: of time when I'm hosting. I have complete.

515
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 2: Control of time. Ever, at any moment in life. Sometimes

516
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 2: I wish he would lose control of time.

517
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: And I blame my job, because my entire job since

518
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: I was in college was TV, getting in, getting out

519
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: on time, commercial breaks, hitting yeah, ins and outs, and

520
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: so I've always it's just been beat into me. And

521
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 1: so I can feel. I can feel ten seconds, thirty seconds,

522
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: forty five seconds, or a minute in my head. I

523
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 1: can talk for exactly that amount of time and stop,

524
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,120
Speaker 1: and it's a beautiful gift that directors love. But I

525
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,399
Speaker 1: lost control of time. I just I couldn't control it,

526
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 1: and I wanted to slow everything down and I couldn't.

527
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: For the first time of my life. And I got

528
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,439
Speaker 1: to the front and I saw your mom, and I

529
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: saw my kids, I saw my dad, my mom, and

530
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: I lost it. You weren't there yet. I start bawling.

531
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 2: I didn't know you.

532
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: Cry. Yeah, I didn't even get to the wedding. I

533
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: didn't get to the wedding. And I start crying. I

534
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: luckily I have a kerchief in my pocket, and I

535
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: start dabbing my tears and I'm like, and I'm just

536
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 1: thinking to myself. I was really scared about my vows

537
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: getting through the valves, and I thought to myself, oh,

538
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: I'm dead. I didn't even see you, and I'm losing it.

539
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: There's no way I'm going to make it through this.

540
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: So then everybody starts scattering, so I know it's time,

541
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: and the pianist starts playing in the piano. And the

542
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: door was open, and it was opened in a way

543
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: where it reflected back up where you were standing. So

544
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: for three seconds I saw you walk across the reflection

545
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: of the door. That was my first glimpse of you,

546
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: and I didn't expect it because it was just a reflection.

547
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was coming, and it took my

548
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: breath away. I saw this glimpse of this strapless dress

549
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: and then she was gone. And so it was the

550
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: most beautiful romantic. If I was a movie producer, this

551
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: is what I would have produced this moment. Feel free

552
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: to use this in a rom com if you want.

553
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 1: But I saw this three second glimpse of you, and

554
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: then you disappeared for another minute because you were getting ready,

555
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: and then you came around the corner and you walked

556
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: down this It was probably it's probably about thirty yards

557
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: of a walk into this private house where we held

558
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: the ceremony, and so I just got this really long

559
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,639
Speaker 1: glimpse of you and your brother, your brother John walked

560
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: you down the aisle, and I just I couldn't could

561
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 1: I couldn't breathe, and I couldn't fully see you though

562
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: I could kind of see the dress, but you're still

563
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 1: pretty far away, but I saw your hair was kind

564
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: of up, and your veil, and it was just a

565
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: very simple, clean neck, no jewelry, because you have a

566
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 1: beautiful neck and a beautiful face, and so it accentuated

567
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: your beautiful face and your jaw and your angles, and

568
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: you just you looked radiant. You were glowing, and I

569
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: looked like you weren't even walking. It looked like you

570
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: were just floating towards me. And you stopped at the

571
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: top of the eye. When you came in, your brother

572
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: took his seat and you stopped for a second, and

573
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: that's when I could really see you, because at this

574
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: point you're about fifty feet away from me, and you

575
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: started walking down the aisle and I I was bawling.

576
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 1: I lost it. I couldn't take it. You were just

577
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: such a vision, and you looked at me. We started crying.

578
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: You were I think if I could speak for you,

579
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: and then you take over. I think you also tried

580
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: to slow it down and couldn't.

581
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 2: Yes, it's so funny sometimes we It's like you'll say

582
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 2: something I was just about to say, which I don't

583
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 2: know if that means we're meant for each other. We're

584
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 2: just starting to turn into the same person, as married

585
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 2: people say happens. But I so, my brother walked me

586
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 2: halfway down the aisle and then he went and sat,

587
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,199
Speaker 2: and I wanted to walk the next half myself, in

588
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 2: part because I'm an independent person and in part because

589
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,199
Speaker 2: I just really a huge part of it was I

590
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 2: really wanted this moment just for me and you, and

591
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 2: I tried to take a moment and take it in

592
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 2: and I did, And yet it's still.

593
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: What's funny is you don't remember doing it. You go,

594
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 1: I wish I had slowed down, And then I go, babe,

595
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: you did, and you saw the video later and you go, oh,

596
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: that's right, I did stop. You didn't even remember at

597
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: the time. You did not remember you stopped.

598
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 2: Now I remember pausing because I remember stopping taking a breath,

599
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 2: and yet I still it feels I mean, I was

600
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 2: stone cold, sober walking on the aisle, and it almost

601
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 2: feels like you're drunk or something. Yeah, Like, I can't remember.

602
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 2: This wasn't long ago, so I can't remember whose faces

603
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 2: I saw as I walked down the aisle. I was trying,

604
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 2: and you're trying to kind of glance at your friends

605
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 2: and family, but I was also I did want to

606
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 2: just hone in on you. I was trying to just

607
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 2: connect with you and have this moment for you and I,

608
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: this moment we'd produced and build up to so much.

609
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: And the moment was perfect. I mean I was tearing up.

610
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 2: You looked so handsome, The light was beautiful. It had

611
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 2: been a bit of a cloudy morning, and I do

612
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 2: think my dad was smiling down on us and making

613
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 2: sure our day was perfect. Because the clouds sort of

614
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 2: parted and the sun was like.

615
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: I call them Jesus clouds. I don't know if anyone

616
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: else calls them that. You know, when you have those

617
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: kind of religious paintings and you get the rays, the

618
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: beautiful rays of light, the pinks, and yeah, I call

619
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: them the Jesus clouds that kind of hit the horizon

620
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: and that's what was that broke and started shining through

621
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: as we started the ceremony at this house and again

622
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: I just felt like, your Dad is shining down on us,

623
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: and I was I had the benefit, and we'll get

624
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: to the Austin wedding. We manufactured and produced the Austin

625
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: wedding completely different, but this was very traditional, and I

626
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: like the benefit of being able to stand there and

627
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: I get to watch it all unfold. I get to

628
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 1: see you walk in, I get to see everybody's faces.

629
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: I'm staring at my kids, I'm staring at your mom

630
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: and everybody just it was so emotional for everybody. And

631
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: again it was just the two of us standing up

632
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: there with our efficiant Mike, the kids, and our groomsmen

633
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: and bridesmaids were sitting in the front row of family,

634
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: and so we just wanted a very simple, elegant look

635
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: to the wedding, and there wasn't a lot of pomp

636
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: and circumstance. That was it.

637
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 2: So I'm there, You're there standing in front of me. Yeah,

638
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 2: what was at that point? Were you nervous?

639
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: You know? And she didn't do the veil over the face.

640
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: It was clean, you know, she didn't have to lift

641
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: the veil. And I remember I kind of kissed you

642
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: on the cheek and said I love you, and we

643
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: were both kind of shaking, and.

644
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 2: I was so happy. Yeah, I was so overjoyed. I

645
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 2: if I thought I felt at peace before we got married,

646
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 2: standing there looking at you, I just felt so calm.

647
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 2: That really was when I felt like, okay, now I

648
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 2: can take this in.

649
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: Well. I always find comfort in your eyes anyway. Like

650
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 1: I look at you, and when I look at you,

651
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, we're good. I know we'll always get

652
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: through everything together. We've already been through some trials and

653
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: tribulations in our life, and so I'm like, when I

654
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: look at you, I'm like, we're good. Yeah, And so

655
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: I just felt I again, I was just trying to

656
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: slow the world down. Mike was about to start speaking

657
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: and he did, and he did a beautiful job.

658
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 2: You're right. It was that we were together. That was

659
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 2: when I felt, I'm like, okay, now we're in this together.

660
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 2: Now we're not.

661
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: But I wanted to look at you because it was

662
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: about us. Wanted to connect with you, but I also

663
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: wanted to look around, like I wanted to look at

664
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: our friends. I wanted to, you know, look at our

665
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: parents and family, and so that was it was interesting.

666
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: I was just racing through my head and I didn't

667
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: have those thoughts. Oddly, in my first wedding. It wasn't

668
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: like that. I don't remember that. I guess I was

669
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: just so young and scared to death, you know, the

670
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: world coming at me so fast. Everything was so perfect

671
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: in this moment, I just wanted to connect with you,

672
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: and I just I stared at you. So the vows

673
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: the most anticipated, dare I say, the most dramatic moment

674
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: of our wedding, and it's something that you and I

675
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 1: were scared to death to do, which was right our vows.

676
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: Why we were so intimidated by doing this for each.

677
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 2: Other, It's funny we both were. I think it was

678
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 2: the hardest thing of the whole wedding.

679
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: For sure, because I just didn't want to let you do.

680
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 2: That's the thing. Yeah, I didn't want to disappoint you.

681
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,959
Speaker 2: I didn't want them to be uneven from each other. Yeah,

682
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 2: but like I had all the Yeah, I didn't want to.

683
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: We didn't discuss what we were going to write. We

684
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: didn't discuss The only thing we kind of mentioned when

685
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: it was all said and done was about how long

686
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: are yours? And we kind of discussed the link because

687
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: we wanted to be somewhat even. But we didn't say

688
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: what we were going to do, what we were going

689
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 1: to say. And you went first. You gave your vows first.

690
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: I told myself, please hear this, don't just listen like

691
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 1: hear this, like try and hear the words. And I

692
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: failed miserably. Yeah, Like, I mean, I heard what you said,

693
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: but you know, I I but I just I agree.

694
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 2: I think it's the blur thing again. I honestly, we

695
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 2: should send each other our vows and read them.

696
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: Oh we're going to And that's again what made Austin

697
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: so spectacularly special.

698
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 2: I can't recommend getting married twice. Yes, even if you listen,

699
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 2: do it on a low budget, just do it because

700
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 2: it's like you you get a rehearsal and then you

701
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 2: get a show and you've covered it all.

702
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: But so you're you're doing your vows, you start crying.

703
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 2: I think I made the joke during the vows that

704
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 2: audio I didn't that audio. Can we fix it in post?

705
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 2: Because my voice was shaky and I was crying, and

706
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 2: I was worried that you wouldn't be able to understand me,

707
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 2: or that the people in the back wouldn't be able

708
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 2: to hear me, because I wanted everyone to feel a

709
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 2: part of it. But yeah, I was crying because I

710
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 2: don't even know if I can put a reason why

711
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 2: you cry. I think you're crying because of the culmination

712
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 2: of the emotion.

713
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 1: Why do you think I cried? Well? When I was

714
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: going through my vows, I knew I had I read

715
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: mine two dozen times because I tried to and and

716
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 1: I don't mean this in a bad way. I was

717
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 1: trying to desensitize myself to certain parts of it. I

718
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 1: wanted to get through it because I wanted to deliver

719
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 1: it for you in the right way again, Host Guy,

720
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: I wanted to deliver it.

721
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 2: Desensitize himself.

722
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: That's a word. It's such a negative connotation, but that's

723
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: what I want. I was trying.

724
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 2: I wanted you to cry.

725
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,839
Speaker 1: I know, well there was that was inevitable, but there

726
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,320
Speaker 1: were parts of it. I knew I was going to

727
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 1: choke on and I knew where that was. Of course

728
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: it was family, but I didn't even make it there,

729
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 1: like I had to pause. I don't even I'm scared

730
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: to even listen back because we videotaped it. I'm scared

731
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 1: to listen back because I feel like I was a

732
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: cat being strangled. I couldn't get words out. I had

733
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: to stop for me.

734
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 2: I didn't think you sounded that way at all, and

735
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 2: you did do your thing. You kind of paused and

736
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 2: kept going back into your deep host voice and like projecting,

737
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 2: I think, to get yourself out of that. But listen

738
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 2: to the vows.

739
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 1: It's my fail safe, it's my defense mechanism. I can

740
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: always go back into that voice and bury it here

741
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: in my chest so I can get through it. But

742
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 1: I didn't.

743
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 2: I was ready for coming up up next the vowels

744
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 2: after the break. The vows were wonderful. I loved yours.

745
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 2: I don't think either of us disappointed the other.

746
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I knew that the main issue for me was

747
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 1: I got to your family, and there was where I

748
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: talk about one of the things I love about you

749
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: is that you love your family and friends as fiercely

750
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,879
Speaker 1: as I do. And it's something that means the world

751
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: to me. Family and friends and being protective of them,

752
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 1: being loyal. And when I got to your mom, I

753
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: asked for her blessing to marry you. And how I

754
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: would have loved to have reached out to your dad

755
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: and I would have loved to have Oh god, I

756
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: would have loved to have had a relationship with your

757
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: dad and been able to talk to him about you.

758
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: And here's stories about when you were a silly little girl,

759
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,240
Speaker 1: and you know, just things that you get a chance

760
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,919
Speaker 1: to do. And I lament the fact that I will

761
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: not have that. And so that's what I knew I

762
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: wasn't going to get through as I just didn't.

763
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 2: Again, and you're the first person I've ever dated, maybe

764
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 2: who's ever said that, but most importantly, who I've ever known,

765
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 2: has meant that. Yeah, like I've said, oh I wish

766
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 2: my dad could obviously wish your dad could meet the

767
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 2: people you're dating, And of course I feel that way

768
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 2: with you, but you're the first person where I know

769
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 2: that you really mean them.

770
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: And I told everybody that I was wearing your dad's

771
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 1: cuff links.

772
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,359
Speaker 2: And my mom did say you didn't have to wear them.

773
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 2: She didn't know if you had a plan, and I

774
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,760
Speaker 2: know you actually planned. Were your grandfather's.

775
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it worked out. Again, just the beauty of

776
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,800
Speaker 1: things coming together. I had some very special cuff links

777
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: that were my grandfather's. There's an S on them for Salinger,

778
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 1: and I've had these. I wear them at special events,

779
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: and of course this was going to be meaningful. I

780
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: wanted my grandfather to be there, so I was going

781
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 1: to wear his cuf links. And then I got your

782
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: dad's cuff links, and I immediately thought this is perfect.

783
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: So I wore your dad's cuf links instead, and I

784
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: gave my grandfather's cup links to my son, Joshua. So

785
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 1: my best man, Joshi got to wear the cuff links

786
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: and I got to put him. I had your brother

787
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 1: before the wedding. I called him over and John put

788
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 1: my cuff links on so and he knew. I said,

789
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: do you know who these cuff links belonged to? He said, oh,

790
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,280
Speaker 1: these are my dads. I've seen these a million Timess

791
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: and I love that he knew right away. And then

792
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 1: I put my grandfather's cup links it's his great grandfather,

793
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,720
Speaker 1: his CUF links on Joshua. So it was just perfect.

794
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: And so in the vows, I talked about wearing his

795
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: CUF links and what it meant to me, and that

796
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 1: was just, you know, all of it just and I

797
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: talked about my kids and you being a part of

798
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 1: our family and all of that. I didn't make it

799
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: through any of that stuff.

800
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 2: Well, I think, you know, as nervous as we were,

801
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 2: we both hit on the same themes right on family,

802
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 2: on making each other's family our own, on why our

803
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 2: relationship works, on our partnership, on the joy of it,

804
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 2: on you know, just the blessing that it is to

805
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 2: be together. And so A, I don't you know, A,

806
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 2: we probably need to read them again, but B, I

807
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 2: think you know, some of that stuff well we'll keep

808
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 2: for ourselves. But it was so it was perfect.

809
00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: Well, my beauty of Austin is we got to do

810
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,239
Speaker 1: it again. Yeah, that was That was the beauty of

811
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: it is that then we got to kind of really

812
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 1: take it in. I think better when we did it

813
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: in Austin because we had kind of yes, yeah, not

814
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: that we made it through again, but because we didn't.

815
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 2: But so Napa, we set our vows. Mike was an incredible, efficient,

816
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 2: funny and he included the audience and and I really

817
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 2: maybe everybody says this, but people did come up to

818
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 2: us and they were like, God, we were crying. So

819
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 2: it was Napa was a much. Napa was very emotional.

820
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 2: I mean, it was all of our best friends. We

821
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,920
Speaker 2: were all crying. And luckily after that we got to

822
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 2: go straight to the incredible Roy Estate and have a

823
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 2: beautiful wine filled dinner that had lots of laughs and

824
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 2: lots of fun.

825
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: So Roy Vineyard, which is where we held the celebration

826
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: and the dinner after was it's something that's it's a

827
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: place that's been special to me. Catherine Reynolds. I've been

828
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 1: friends with the prior owners who I met and actually

829
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: we used I think we did Roy on the show,

830
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: and that's that's kind of was how he was arin. Yeah,

831
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,879
Speaker 1: Ari season and we met them and you film something there, Yes,

832
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: we did. Yeah, we filmed it Roy, but that house

833
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: burned down and the fires.

834
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:25,280
Speaker 2: Of twenty seventeen.

835
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so they've rebuilt this beautiful tasting room. It

836
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 1: is magnificent, and it has this huge cathedral architecture and

837
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: this beautiful window I don't know, maybe sixty foot window

838
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: that looks out over the valley and over their vineyards,

839
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,439
Speaker 1: and it's it's a place where you and I when

840
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: we went to just visit Catherine, a friend of ours,

841
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 1: and have some wine. One day, we both left and

842
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: we're like, this, this is the place. We need to

843
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 1: come back here and have our celebration.

844
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,320
Speaker 2: It was about a year ago because it was harvest

845
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 2: time and napole last year. They said, we've just finished

846
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 2: rebuilding after everything burned down in the horrible fires. It's

847
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 2: taken years. Come see the new place. We went and

848
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 2: it was, you know, we I like a little gut feeling.

849
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 2: We didn't know where we were going to get married

850
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 2: at this point, and we didn't know where we were

851
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 2: going to even by that, I mean even what city.

852
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,919
Speaker 2: And we kind of both looked at each other and said,

853
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 2: this feels like a place or we should celebrate.

854
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,240
Speaker 1: It seemed ridiculous that we hadn't thought of it already.

855
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 1: It just how that's how right it fell.

856
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 2: As we were leaving roy that day a year ago,

857
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 2: a rainbow came into the sky, and then we really thought, Okay,

858
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 2: this is it.

859
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:41,280
Speaker 1: Do you believe in signs for sure? Yes, karma signs,

860
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: the energy.

861
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 2: This is something we should have discussed before getting I know,

862
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 2: I fully believe. I mean I've never asked you that

863
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 2: we're married. Yikes, still things to learn about each other.

864
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:51,840
Speaker 1: I'm a big believer in that. And so yeah, we

865
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: walked out and again if I told you, you know,

866
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: we have the picture, maybe we'll even post it because

867
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,720
Speaker 1: it was so perfect and ridiculous the way it arched

868
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 1: over the exit as we were walking out. I mean

869
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: it was you'd be like, this is dumb, this doesn't happen,

870
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,240
Speaker 1: this is Hollywood, but it was. It was that perfect,

871
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,240
Speaker 1: and we were like, this is it where we were

872
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: And so that's we had a little like an hour

873
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: or so of kind of we have some caviar.

874
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:21,720
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. I again I sound like a brat,

875
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 2: but I it was our wedding weekend and I had

876
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 2: caviar every day. I was so happy.

877
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 1: Well, the chef, so the chef at.

878
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 2: Roy, chef Tom Stafford, incredible chef Tom.

879
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:32,880
Speaker 1: We got to give him a shout out and he

880
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: has a little Chicago tie. I think he worked at

881
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: Alenea in Chicago, Cruit and he was so brilliant, and

882
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: so we we had about an hour because we were

883
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: taking some pictures as well, getting all the family photos

884
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:44,760
Speaker 1: doing all that. We had this amazing.

885
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 2: We took some pictures at Roy.

886
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, we took some pictures at Roy, went into the

887
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: vineyard and if you've been online on our Instagram, you've

888
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: seen kind of the hero shots of us in front

889
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:56,720
Speaker 1: of the tasting room. And again, their wines are spectacular.

890
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: Chef Tom is incredible and he meticulously went through with

891
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: us because we wanted this to not necessarily be a

892
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 1: huge party. We wanted a wonderful coursed out wine tasting dinner, wines.

893
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 2: Paired with incredible foods for the forty people we had.

894
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,360
Speaker 2: I do think a struggle at a wedding is the

895
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 2: bigger the group, and it's just hard to feed a

896
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:20,840
Speaker 2: lot of people. It's hard for the food to be

897
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 2: really good, and we wanted some really good food and wow,

898
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 2: did Chef Tom deliver.

899
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: It's one of the best meals I've ever had in

900
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: my life.

901
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 2: I never had a meal like this before. Was fun.

902
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 2: The first few courses were plaited. We had a Barodica

903
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,799
Speaker 2: prace salad. We had a short red bravioli with a

904
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 2: marscapone cheese. I don't think I'll ever forget this many.

905
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,359
Speaker 2: I love the food so much. And then the next

906
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,800
Speaker 2: part was really fun. It was like self serve it

907
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 2: they have a hearth, they're an open fire, wood burning

908
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 2: oven kind of and he made these incredible Texas little

909
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 2: Texas nod Wagoo steaks, grilled vegetables, salmon, quail. I mean,

910
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 2: if you had a dietary restriction, Chef Tom was looking

911
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 2: out for you that night. And so then that was

912
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 2: self serve and people kept going up for more and

913
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 2: more meat. I've never seen.

914
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,439
Speaker 1: The Texas wagu was next level.

915
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

916
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: Just the quail, oh man, I'm in every every course

917
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: had a wine with it as well, and.

918
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 2: Of rose, incredible wines. So the food was amazing. After

919
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 2: our little cocktail hour where we had the caveat and

920
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,720
Speaker 2: a little Haimon, a little champagne, we took some pictures,

921
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 2: we sat down for dinner and at the beginning of

922
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 2: dinner we did some toasts from our moms, which we

923
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 2: were we weren't sure if they were going to be

924
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,720
Speaker 2: more roast and more toasts, but I think the moms

925
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 2: kept it emotionally complementary. Both of them married wouldn't be

926
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,319
Speaker 2: where we are today without a little criticism from our

927
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:42,240
Speaker 2: wonderful mothers.

928
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 1: They were perfec well. The thing is, I will brag

929
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 1: on them both. They are both brilliant women. They are

930
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: both such well spoken, thoughtful women, both so strong and independent.

931
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: They obviously did a great job raising you, and I

932
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,319
Speaker 1: will give my mom kudos for being an amazing mom

933
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 1: with me. And so to it. They parted. They each

934
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: imparted wisdom in very different ways. They both had some

935
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: life lessons that they dropped.

936
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 2: They were both very complimentary of us.

937
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were. It was beautiful.

938
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 2: It's nice to get a compliment from mom.

939
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 1: It is.

940
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 2: It comes around once in a blue moon, on a

941
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 2: wedding maybe.

942
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,879
Speaker 1: And then the kids got up. Josh and Taylor came

943
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: in and then rushed it and they killed it.

944
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 2: I gotta say, we didn't know about Josh, and he

945
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 2: will say this. He actually said it in his speech, Taylor,

946
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 2: your daughter, Taylor has done theater. She's used to being

947
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 2: on stage. Little more. Josh. He opened by saying, I'm

948
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 2: not a big public speaker, but oh my gosh, I

949
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 2: was so overwhelmed with he was so confident and natural and.

950
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: He landed some jokes.

951
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,359
Speaker 2: Oh he crushed it.

952
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 1: But Taylor got up and she spoke as well, and

953
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: she was funny and thoughtful. And you know, parents, can

954
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 1: I talk to you for a second, So you know

955
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: how you feel like every day you're screwing up your

956
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,279
Speaker 1: kids and you're ruining their life. That is childhood, right,

957
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 1: I mean every day we're like this is going to

958
00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 1: cost offs and therapy because you feel like you're messing

959
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: them up. Then there's these moments that your kids show

960
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 1: up and they speak or they do something and you think, wow,

961
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 1: maybe I didn't screw them up so bad, Like maybe

962
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: maybe they're gonna be okay. They're great human beings. But

963
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: they know we all as parents have those feelings of man,

964
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 1: you know, am I just screwing them up? But that

965
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: they the way they arrived in that moment just blew

966
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 1: me away. And it was beautiful and so Josh Taylor,

967
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: I can't tell you how much I love you. I

968
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: can't tell you how proud I am of you. But

969
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: we did. We we buried the lead because before we

970
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: went in to sit for dinner and the speeches. We

971
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,720
Speaker 1: all gathered for our first dance, and my daughter, Taylor

972
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: is a beautiful singer, songwriter, performer. It's not what she's

973
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 1: majoring in. She's not a music major, but she was

974
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 1: pretty proficient as a pianist and guitarist and as a

975
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 1: singer as a child and took voice lessons and all that.

976
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 1: Then she still just loves it, and we asked her

977
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 1: to sing, and we asked her to sing a specific song.

978
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,319
Speaker 1: It's a song that was really popular. It still is,

979
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: but it's beyond we started dating, yeah, but really when

980
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 1: we started dating, it's beyond by Leon Bridges. And I've

981
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 1: was fortunate enough to know Leon Bridges. I know Leon.

982
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: He's from Fort Worth, Texas, and we did some charitable

983
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 1: stuff together and so huge fan of his. And that

984
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 1: song is obviously probably the wedding song of the decade.

985
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,919
Speaker 1: But Taylor sang it for us, and.

986
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 2: I think it was supposed to be our first dance,

987
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 2: but we really didn't even dance because we just wanted

988
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 2: to watch Tay the whole time, and so we were

989
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,720
Speaker 2: kind of standing there and swaying, and everybody gathered around

990
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 2: and again. A song set the mood we'd been in

991
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 2: the cocktail hour, and then Taylor was the perfect way

992
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:56,399
Speaker 2: to kind of, you know, get everybody together a little bit.

993
00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 2: And she had been practicing, which meant so much much,

994
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 2: and she was just perfect.

995
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. And so there's the lyrics to

996
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 1: the song, and I swear I know the lyrics to

997
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 1: this song by heart. But there was a line in

998
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,359
Speaker 1: there that Grandma would have loved you.

999
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, she changed that. Taylor changed that.

1000
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 1: It's in the lyrics. Oh it is, it's in I

1001
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:20,239
Speaker 1: thought so too.

1002
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:21,399
Speaker 2: I thought she changed.

1003
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 1: I did too. So I spoke about my grandmother, who,

1004
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 1: God rest her soul, lived in ninety nine and a

1005
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: half and was just this spectacular, beautiful Jewish grandmother, and

1006
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 1: it was the matriarch of our family. So much wisdom,

1007
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: so much beauty. The way Taylor hit that line, I

1008
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 1: thought she changed it too. I was like, I've never

1009
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 1: heard that before. I went and looked up the lyrics

1010
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 1: to beyond it's in there.

1011
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 2: You know what shout out today knows how to deliver

1012
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 2: a line from her dad.

1013
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: And so yes, she did so. But that then I

1014
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 1: lost it again. You're right, we didn't really dance as

1015
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 1: much as we just stared at our daughter in this

1016
00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 1: beautiful and again, when I tell you, the picture that

1017
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:04,200
Speaker 1: God painted behind her was glorious. The sun was coming out.

1018
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: It was magic, the.

1019
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,880
Speaker 2: Type of sky that cameras are never going to capture.

1020
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,279
Speaker 2: How it really looked to the human eye.

1021
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: It was so because the clouds painted it perfect, gave

1022
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 1: it the depth of field, and just it was magnificent.

1023
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:19,400
Speaker 1: And Taylor just just everybody was speechless. And she was

1024
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 1: performing with this this young woman who.

1025
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, shout out to Ellie James, this musician who came

1026
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 2: and thank you for keeping our secrets. She was the only,

1027
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 2: you know, sort of outside the person there. And she

1028
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 2: played the piano. As you walked in for the ceremony,

1029
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 2: she played one by You two, a song that you

1030
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 2: know you love you too, and I just.

1031
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,839
Speaker 1: Thought it and the lyrics are amazing perfect.

1032
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,319
Speaker 2: So that was a piano version. Then I walked down

1033
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 2: the aisle and she played on the piano leve En Rose.

1034
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 2: Now I wanted to walk down to that song for

1035
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 2: many reasons. One when you again, when you and I

1036
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,359
Speaker 2: were dating, the movie A Star Is Born was big,

1037
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,359
Speaker 2: and I was obsessed with it on Roses and Rose

1038
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 2: the Bachelor Recap show. I did, I like, spoofed it

1039
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,360
Speaker 2: a lot. I sang shallow. I was totally into the

1040
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:11,480
Speaker 2: Lady Gaga version of Love on Rose from that movie

1041
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 2: with her and Bradley Cooper. And then the one of

1042
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,799
Speaker 2: the ways I really knew I liked you was that

1043
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 2: for Halloween Lash that year, you hadn't even seen the

1044
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 2: movie yet, and I said, hey, I really want to

1045
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 2: be Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga's characters from A Star

1046
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:28,480
Speaker 2: is Born, and he said.

1047
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 1: Cool, got it.

1048
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:31,160
Speaker 2: I'll look up a poster and you came up with

1049
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 2: a costume that day, and I thought, you know, this

1050
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,319
Speaker 2: guy cares, this guy wants to make me happy. It

1051
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 2: was a really early sign we'd on evenen dating a

1052
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:39,439
Speaker 2: few months.

1053
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 1: Effort efforts, but in the effort.

1054
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 2: I mean, gosh, I could go on about how women

1055
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:45,840
Speaker 2: women are just like I just want to find a

1056
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 2: guy who can like talk to people. But anyway, so

1057
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 2: that song was meaningful for that reason, and also when

1058
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 2: I really looked up the lyrics, well, and I'll give

1059
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 2: a little shout out to look Levey on Rose Rose.

1060
00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 2: Obviously there's some ties Roses in your life and line

1061
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,799
Speaker 2: and our life and what brought us together shout out

1062
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 2: to Roses. But the lyrics are about how when you

1063
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 2: find true love you see life in rose like through

1064
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 2: rose colored glasses, life is in pink. And that is

1065
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,800
Speaker 2: really how I feel. I really I did. I'll reveal

1066
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 2: I did say this in the vows. I said, I

1067
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 2: never knew life could be like this, and I don't

1068
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 2: want to live it any other way. And I really

1069
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,160
Speaker 2: feel that way, and that really is what that song

1070
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:38,840
Speaker 2: means to me. So so I'm really grateful to be

1071
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:43,160
Speaker 2: your wife. And I walked down to that song. And

1072
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 2: then after you and I got married, Ellie, as we

1073
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 2: turned around and walked out to go take pictures, she

1074
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 2: played Beautiful Day by you two, and it was.

1075
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 1: Beautiful that was in it, and then Taylor saying beyond

1076
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:57,879
Speaker 1: and then yeah, the line I know that Grandma would

1077
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,400
Speaker 1: have loved her. And I could not believe that I

1078
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 1: heard that line for the first time in there. I

1079
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,320
Speaker 1: don't know how I missed it, and it was just perfect.

1080
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 1: And I went and looked at the lie and maybe it.

1081
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 2: Was meaningful that you heard it for the first time.

1082
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: It is not until that moment because I had talked

1083
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,120
Speaker 1: about my grandmother and my vows as well, and so

1084
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 1: I really thought Taylor had added it, and I gave sorry,

1085
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 1: Leon Bridges, I gave that credit to my daughter. But

1086
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 1: it was it was perfectly.

1087
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 2: Meaningful because I loved your grandmother so much.

1088
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 1: Yes, and that, and I talked about and honestly, without

1089
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: even knowing that that was in the song, I had

1090
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 1: talked about how I wish my grandma had known you.

1091
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: I wish you guys had met because she would have

1092
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 1: loved you. And I can't believe.

1093
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 2: I can't believe that's in the song. I thought she

1094
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 2: added it too. I have to say my little sister

1095
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 2: spoke Christina. Oh yes, yes, she was wonderful. She is

1096
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:58,840
Speaker 2: a powerhouse executive and she delivers every time. She's solid

1097
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 2: and she was. She loves you so much. She gosh,

1098
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 2: she did everything for me. I didn't have a wedding planner,

1099
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 2: but I had a little sister. She remembered to go.

1100
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 2: She was the ultimate maide of honor. You know how

1101
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 2: people are like, oh what can I help with whatever?

1102
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 2: Just like do because that day as a brider a groom,

1103
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,400
Speaker 2: I think you're frazzled like she was, like I got

1104
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 2: your dress. Don't worry like I picked up this. No,

1105
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 2: I got that out of the bridle. Sweet. She was

1106
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 2: just remembering things that day and kind of full.

1107
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 1: In those situations you do not have to ask no,

1108
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,319
Speaker 1: they just they are two steps ahead of you because

1109
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,919
Speaker 1: you know your brain is frazzled, and so it's nice

1110
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:35,880
Speaker 1: when people are around you. That's like, I got you.

1111
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 2: She was making sure. That's the ultimate sacrifice, right. She

1112
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,880
Speaker 2: was putting my happiness above her own that day and

1113
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 2: making sure I had fun, and that probably meant she

1114
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 2: was a little.

1115
00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 1: More soubers does your brother, because as you were about

1116
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 1: to walk down the aisle, you realized it was funny,

1117
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:53,240
Speaker 1: I don't have my bouquet.

1118
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,840
Speaker 2: Oops, I forgot the bouquet.

1119
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: Okay, John, your brother has to sprint up the flight

1120
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:00,799
Speaker 1: is I.

1122
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 2: the makeup down the front of my dress. Not very late,

1123
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 2: but a few we had to get the makeup out.

1124
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,919
Speaker 2: So I'm a little I'm starting. I'm a little bit like, Okay,

Speaker 2: bring her up because another thing I maybe forgot without

1150
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,480
Speaker 2: my wedding planner. As I'm like going to walk down,

1151
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 2: she goes, well, who's helping you? I got ready in

1152
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,280
Speaker 2: this house with this little guest house up these stairs.

1153
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 2: She's like, well, who's helping you down the stairs in

1154
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:27,520
Speaker 2: your dress? Because my mom and sister were gone they

1155
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:30,120
Speaker 2: had to be in for the ceremony. I said, you know, Lauren,

1156
00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 2: I guess you are. You're family, and nowt thank you.

1157
00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 2: She did it all. So she helped carry me carry

1158
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 2: my dress down these steps. But then we're carrying my

1159
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:40,839
Speaker 2: dress down, my brother comes out. He's going to meet

1160
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:43,719
Speaker 2: me to walk me down the aisle. We're about to go.

1161
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,040
Speaker 2: He's like, okay, he got the text it's time to

1162
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:48,360
Speaker 2: go from your wonderful assistant Karen. He's like, okay, we

1163
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 2: got to go. And I said, John, I was carrying

1164
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 2: my dress. I didn't carry a bouquet down here. And

1165
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:59,399
Speaker 2: my little brother runs and I said, god, you're in dress, shoes,

1166
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,319
Speaker 2: don't fall. Runs up the stairs, finds my bouquet. We

1167
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:03,960
Speaker 2: forgot to dry it off. It had been in water.

1168
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 2: It's sopping wet. Each rise it off on his brand

1169
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:10,480
Speaker 2: new suit from you, my sweet little drawn, and just

1170
00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:14,920
Speaker 2: a few minutes late we walked down the aisle. I

1171
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,359
Speaker 2: did find out later I also asked him to hold

1172
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,320
Speaker 2: my phone, but his suit was so well fitt he

1173
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 2: said he couldn't keep two phones in the pockets, so

1174
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,640
Speaker 2: he threw his own phone into the bushes outside and

1175
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 2: went back and got it later. This is why you

1176
00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:31,440
Speaker 2: have a small, intimate wedding with just your best family

1177
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,040
Speaker 2: and friends, because when you forget crap, they're not mad

1178
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 2: at you. And also they don't do any weird crap.

1179
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 2: We should talk about that. In Austin, the bigger the

1180
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 2: party gets as fun as it was. People do some

1181
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,200
Speaker 2: weird crap. You can rely on your friends and family

1182
00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:45,760
Speaker 2: to not get well, maybe not all maybe not extended family.

1183
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 2: Your close family and friends are gonna not be weird anyway.

1184
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: So we wrap up with an amazing dessert, and we

1185
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 1: wrap up with more incredible wines. And it was again,

1186
00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,000
Speaker 1: this was so small and intimate. It was so easy

1187
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,239
Speaker 1: to walk around. Everybody kind of did got up and

1188
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: walked around and.

1189
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:05,360
Speaker 2: Visibly we were just at two tables.

1190
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:07,120
Speaker 1: Yeah I was, you know, it was too big you know.

1191
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 2: It was outside on this beautiful patio at Roy.

1192
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, downstairs, and it was two kind of farm tables

1193
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,520
Speaker 1: that ran the linkage, twenty people at each.

1194
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were We didn't really have florals. It was candles.

1195
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 2: We had a lot of wine glasses per plates. So

1196
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 2: we had amazing florals at Austin.

1197
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 1: No, no, because it was four, four or five wine

1198
00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 1: glasses in front of everybody.

1199
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 2: Because I think we were outside, and you know, I

1200
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:31,240
Speaker 2: don't love when people. I wanted the setting to speak

1201
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,120
Speaker 2: for itself. If you get the chance to go to

1202
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 2: nap but try to go to Roy. It's beautiful. The

1203
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 2: outeror patios gorgeous.

1204
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: The views are gorgeous, bringing sand to the beach. If

1205
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:43,800
Speaker 1: you're adding flowers to Harvest and Napa Valley, you're not

1206
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: going to touch those colors.

1207
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,920
Speaker 2: So we had a gorgeous dinner and laughed and cried

1208
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,160
Speaker 2: and it was everything I wanted it to be. We've

1209
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:54,560
Speaker 2: got to have the entire weekend. We got to have

1210
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 2: that quality time with the people we love the most.

1211
00:57:57,840 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 2: And that's why I wanted to do this small wedding

1212
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 2: followed by a big celebration in Austin because I wanted

1213
00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 2: that time. Now that being said, yes we party.

1214
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:10,320
Speaker 1: We did because we so we all jumped in the

1215
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,919
Speaker 1: shuttle and we all rode back together. By the way,

1216
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: it was like, we didn't do that. Let's leave and

1217
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 1: there's the car and we ride off into the sunset alone.

1218
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 1: We wanted to be with these people. And that's one

1219
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 1: thing I think we've learned in our just experience in life.

1220
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: Everything in weddings, a lot of it is made to

1221
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 1: separate you from the people you love, and the experience

1222
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: is so different. You're not a part of the cocktails,

1223
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 1: you're not a part you know, you're by yourself so much.

1224
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:39,080
Speaker 1: And R and I were like, no, no, let's you know,

1225
00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 1: not screw all the traditions. But some of them were like, no, no,

1226
00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 1: we want to be a part of these.

1227
00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 2: Well, I didn't want to spend a million hours taking

1228
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:49,760
Speaker 2: a million different pictures, although you do got to make

1229
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,200
Speaker 2: sure to dick some. But it's that balance. You want

1230
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,200
Speaker 2: time for each other and to connect and to take

1231
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:56,080
Speaker 2: it in, but you also want to be with the

1232
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 2: people you love because it's a special moment where everybody

1233
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 2: you love has made the time taking it out of

1234
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,840
Speaker 2: their schedules and I'm grateful to be together in one place.

1235
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:05,240
Speaker 1: And so we all did. We all hopped in a shuttle.

1236
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:06,560
Speaker 1: We got in the bus and we went back to

1237
00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 1: the Archer Hotel. And again one of the main reasons

1238
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 1: we chose the Archer, other than it's this quaint, beautiful

1239
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:15,240
Speaker 1: little hotel with amazing rooms, the rooftop. I think it

1240
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 1: is the only rooftop bar in all of downtown Napa.

1241
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 2: And it was time for my dream to come true

1242
00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 2: rooftop dance party.

1243
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:27,120
Speaker 1: And we danced our asses off. We had late night food.

1244
00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:29,919
Speaker 1: I eat my theory about a wedding and so same

1245
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 1: as Elsie, you cannot have enough food. Just always have

1246
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:37,080
Speaker 1: food for people to nibble on. So we got there

1247
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 1: and they had flatbreads, we had doughnut holes with I

1248
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:41,680
Speaker 1: think it was raspberry.

1249
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 2: French fries, sandwiches, sliders, and again an open bar because

1250
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 2: I think at this point we're pretty wind out.

1251
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,959
Speaker 1: Some people still drink some wine, but at this point

1252
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 1: it was time for maybe a cocktail, maybe even some hydration,

1253
00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:58,920
Speaker 1: but it was time to maybe have a tequila and

1254
00:59:58,960 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 1: just settled.

1255
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 2: Apologize to anyone who sees our reception photos in Napa

1256
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 2: or Austin I am so sweaty in these pictures. I

1257
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 2: have no regrets. I was dancing so hard and I

1258
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,720
Speaker 2: was oh, because I'm like, this is what I game for, Like, yes,

1259
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 2: I came to marry you, Yes I love you. But

1260
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 2: when do you get to dance then? Like when you're

1261
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 2: at a wedding and you're with all your favorite people.

1262
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 2: And we got to pick the songs. We got to

1263
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,680
Speaker 2: pick our eighties and nineties bangers. I did not want

1264
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 2: to hear the shuffle slide. I did not want to

1265
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:37,600
Speaker 2: hear do you remember. No, it was like eighties and nineties.

1266
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:40,440
Speaker 2: I sound like a radio station eighties, nineties and today.

1267
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:44,800
Speaker 2: But it was all bangers and shout out to the

1268
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:46,920
Speaker 2: brother in law, Andrew. This is how diy and intimate.

1269
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:48,960
Speaker 2: The wedding was. My brother in law Andrew made the

1270
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 2: dance party playlist director of Vibe. And I was in

1271
01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 2: a dress by Olivia Botega that I love. This dress.

1272
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 2: It's called them in Roe Dress. You can get it.

1273
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 2: It's available and they, by the way, Olivia botake it

1274
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:07,360
Speaker 2: for free. Custom does custom measurements and you send them

1275
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:09,480
Speaker 2: and they do it a custom fit for you. This

1276
01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:15,280
Speaker 2: dress was so fun, sparkly twirling. Really, I went from

1277
01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:17,760
Speaker 2: an a line like, well, I guess I haven't talked

1278
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 2: about picking the dress, so the dress I chose, I

1279
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 2: didn't try on money. I saw someone the other day

1280
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 2: say they tried on one hundred and fifty wedding dress.

1281
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: That's just that's crazy.

1282
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:30,080
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, baby, you're never going to get that

1283
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 2: time back. But to each their own, I tried on

1284
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:36,280
Speaker 2: maybe ten to twelve. At a certain point, I think

1285
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 2: you start to get like they all look like white dresses,

1286
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:42,560
Speaker 2: and it starts to run together. But my gauge was

1287
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 2: I just kept going back. I kept comparing everyone to

1288
01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:49,160
Speaker 2: this one in my mind, and it's the fit that

1289
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,680
Speaker 2: I think works best for me after getting to wear

1290
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 2: a lot of amazing dresses on red carpet c et

1291
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,360
Speaker 2: strapless and it gave me a nice waist and then

1292
01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 2: it was a little flowy, and I loved it, and

1293
01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:03,120
Speaker 2: I did. I couldn't believe it. I did not. You

1294
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:04,920
Speaker 2: didn't think you were gonna cry, or you well, I

1295
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 2: guess you were trying not to cry. I didn't want

1296
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,200
Speaker 2: or think I was going to cry in the wedding dress.

1297
01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,880
Speaker 2: Try it. I'm like, no, this, I'm not gonna. I'm

1298
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 2: I'm a chill bride. And I did tear up when

1299
01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,960
Speaker 2: I put that dress on it because I could instantly see.

1300
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,080
Speaker 1: You told me that. I remember you called me and

1301
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,000
Speaker 1: I said, had to go, you go. I tried one

1302
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:21,360
Speaker 1: on and.

1303
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:23,920
Speaker 2: I cried, yeah, because I could suddenly it was weird.

1304
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 2: I tried it not and I could see walking down

1305
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 2: the aisle in it to you, and that was all

1306
01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:45,280
Speaker 2: I can that's the dream. So you changed in then

1307
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:48,720
Speaker 2: I wanted this other dress to kind of be similar

1308
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 2: but different, like strapless, has a waste, a little flowy,

1309
01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 2: but like sparkling fun, almost like Cinderella went to the ball,

1310
01:02:56,320 --> 01:03:01,200
Speaker 2: but then she she changed and so it was Towrillian fun.

1311
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 2: But with all that sparkle, it wasn't I don't want

1312
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 2: to throw shade. Get this stress. This is not shade.

1313
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 2: I want to be clear. I love this dress. Get

1314
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,080
Speaker 2: this dress. It wasn't the world's most breathable fabric. And

1315
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:17,040
Speaker 2: I am a sweaty person. I am the We've talked

1316
01:03:17,040 --> 01:03:18,560
Speaker 2: about this in interviews. When you and I used to

1317
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 2: do interviews, I'd get nervous because you don't sweat and

1318
01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 2: I do. And the lights hit you for the interview,

1319
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 2: I'm a sweaty babe, and I was dancing so hard.

1320
01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:27,360
Speaker 2: I was doing so much good cardio and so anyway,

1321
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:28,959
Speaker 2: I'm really sweaty in all the pictures.

1322
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 1: And we tore it up. It was a great night,

1323
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:33,960
Speaker 1: and it got kind of intimate because the rooftop shuts

1324
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,360
Speaker 1: down around on ten or ten thirty anyway, so we

1325
01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:39,440
Speaker 1: had the place to ourselves. We took over the entire rooftop,

1326
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,000
Speaker 1: had it very private, very intimate, and it was just

1327
01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:47,400
Speaker 1: it was just wonderful because it was just our people.

1328
01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:50,400
Speaker 2: The kids were dancing, of those our families, our friends.

1329
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 2: If you see in some of the pictures Harry Potter

1330
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 2: esque glasses. Yes, my sortie sister surprised me. They all

1331
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:00,920
Speaker 2: showed up to the rooftop dance party in her Potter glasses.

1332
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 2: Also another reveal, Harry Potter made it into the vows.

1333
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:07,120
Speaker 2: I mentioned Harry Potter and the vows. I actually think

1334
01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:10,640
Speaker 2: our fici by the way, and you did so do

1335
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 2: I need to real it isn't too much, so.

1336
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Do you you do? You?

1337
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:15,880
Speaker 2: You know what's going to be funny. Also, is now

1338
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,400
Speaker 2: that people know that we got married, if they saw

1339
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:21,320
Speaker 2: it on Instagram, I did throw a Harry Potter Halloween party.

1340
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,640
Speaker 2: And yes, I did throw a Halloween party at my

1341
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:27,760
Speaker 2: home the week before the wedding in Austin, the week

1342
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,480
Speaker 2: after our wedding, and two weeks after our wedding in Napa.

1343
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 2: Why did I do that? I don't know. I love

1344
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 2: a festivity anyway, I'm tired but happy and so yeah, fun,

1345
01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 2: fun dance party. You babe, you dance.

1346
01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,920
Speaker 1: I love to dance. I am of the age and

1347
01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 1: the era where dancing was cool, like I wish still

1348
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: in the footloose era, like where you know, going to

1349
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 1: school in the you know eighties and you know nineties,

1350
01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:58,960
Speaker 1: And we danced. When we went to dances, we danced.

1351
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:01,360
Speaker 1: We loved it. And so I still love to dance.

1352
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:04,640
Speaker 1: Not saying I'm good at it. I'm not, but I

1353
01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:06,640
Speaker 1: still love it and I will go at it hard

1354
01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:09,520
Speaker 1: and enjoy it. And so we danced our asses off,

1355
01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:12,680
Speaker 1: had a blast, and then it was time to shut

1356
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:15,480
Speaker 1: it all down again. They said it's over, y'all, need

1357
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:17,600
Speaker 1: to go home. No one wanted the night to end,

1358
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:19,880
Speaker 1: and I guess I don't know. When it was twelve

1359
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 1: thirty one o'clock in the morning, we all kind of

1360
01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:24,600
Speaker 1: started making our way back to our rooms, which was

1361
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 1: somewhat eventful.

1362
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:29,680
Speaker 2: I was pretty tipsy at one point. You know, when

1363
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 2: you're the bride, you're like forgetting to I mean, I

1364
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,560
Speaker 2: ate the meal. I loved it. I probably could have

1365
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:36,680
Speaker 2: eaten more food physically, but I.

1366
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:38,840
Speaker 1: Was chatting, and every bride and groom probably has that

1367
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:40,959
Speaker 1: same thing. I wish i'd enjoyed the food.

1368
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 2: Oh, I enjoyed it. I just should have eaten more.

1369
01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:46,320
Speaker 1: I that is why I love nap as. I truly

1370
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 1: truly enjoyed every bite, and it was spectatorical.

1371
01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 2: I was tipsy, and we are about to at back

1372
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:55,920
Speaker 2: to hotel room, and I think we should end this

1373
01:05:56,000 --> 01:06:00,600
Speaker 2: podcast on this story. Yes, we're heading back and two

1374
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:03,160
Speaker 2: floors down, we are down the hall from your dear friend,

1375
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 2: and you and I are like being I think, just

1376
01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 2: kind of loud. As we're heading back.

1377
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 1: To Project the Innocent, we'll call him Chip.

1378
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. I had tried to grab some French fries and

1379
01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:18,680
Speaker 2: a fried chicken sandwichess. We walked out, but at some

1380
01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:20,360
Speaker 2: point the meat had fallen out of the sandwich. The

1381
01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 2: chicken was gone.

1382
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's just holding two pieces of bread and a thing.

1383
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:26,360
Speaker 2: I didn't really realize that. So we're laughing. You're laughing

1384
01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:28,919
Speaker 2: at me loudly because you're like, babe, where's the meat?

1385
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:29,840
Speaker 2: You're just eating bread.

1386
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:32,080
Speaker 1: Well, you had given up halfway to our room down

1387
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:34,919
Speaker 1: the hall. You had decided your feet hurt and you

1388
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 1: gave up and you sat down on the floor in

1389
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:41,760
Speaker 1: the hall and said go on without me. I can't

1390
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:45,760
Speaker 1: make it. She's folks, she's not dramatic or theatrical at all.

1391
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 1: So here we are. It's one o'clock in the morning.

1392
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,480
Speaker 1: She's holding two pieces of bread with lettuce in it,

1393
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 1: and she's like, where's the meat in here? And now

1394
01:06:56,560 --> 01:06:58,360
Speaker 1: we're being kind of loud again. It's one in the morning.

1395
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:01,040
Speaker 2: So your friendship open a person.

1396
01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: No, we don't know who this is. A door opened,

1397
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:06,360
Speaker 1: so I'm like, oh my god, we've just woken somebody up.

1398
01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna get yelled at. I feel terrible. The door

1399
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:12,720
Speaker 1: flies open and a gentleman walks out in his underwear.

1400
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 1: In his underwear, it turns out it's my best friend Chip.

1401
01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 2: He had come out to see what the ruckus was.

1402
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:23,680
Speaker 2: I love how comfortable he felt at the Archer Hotel.

1403
01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:24,919
Speaker 2: If it was his own home.

1404
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what his plan was. I don't know

1405
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:29,560
Speaker 1: if he had a plan at all, why he what

1406
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:31,680
Speaker 1: was he going to accomplish if it wasn't us, because

1407
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:33,880
Speaker 1: he didn't know, he couldn't see us through the people.

1408
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:35,280
Speaker 1: He didn't know who was out in the hall.

1409
01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:36,400
Speaker 2: I love his confidence.

1410
01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:39,120
Speaker 1: He just walked down his underwear to like confront whatever

1411
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:39,840
Speaker 1: was going on.

1412
01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:42,800
Speaker 2: So we're already laughing because chips come out in his underwear.

1413
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 2: And I should reveal that I did have people where

1414
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 2: I had sort of themes aesthetics for each night. Yes,

1415
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:56,560
Speaker 2: Friday night in Napa was I called it Hampton's chic.

1416
01:07:56,640 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 2: I wanted everybody in Cream's blues. They were actually Malakoya

1417
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:02,960
Speaker 2: and the aesthetic. I like to have a thing to

1418
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 2: dress for. I don't know if everybody did, but I

1419
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 2: liked to have a thing to dress work. So I

1420
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:09,120
Speaker 2: told them that on our website, I said, dress like

1421
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:12,560
Speaker 2: you are the TikTok trend of coastal grandmother. Dress as

1422
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 2: if you are in a Nancy Meers movie. Dress as

1423
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:18,320
Speaker 2: if you were Gwyneth Paltrow in courts elevated neutrals with

1424
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 2: pops of blue. Saturday Night, I said it's harvest in

1425
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 2: nappa dress in the fall colors Ron's is and greens

1426
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 2: and fall. Chip was so on theme that on Saturday

1427
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:36,960
Speaker 2: night he wore boxers with pumpkin pie pieces on them in.

1428
01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 1: A pattern pumpkin pie underwear.

1429
01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:40,599
Speaker 2: So this man is not only in this hotel all

1430
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:42,639
Speaker 2: the way in his underwear, but his underwear are covered

1431
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 2: in it is a pattern of pumpkin pie and harvest.

1432
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:51,600
Speaker 1: We get Lauren to her feet, but then we realize

1433
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:54,960
Speaker 1: as we start walking away, Chip has locked himself out

1434
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,679
Speaker 1: of his room. He's standing in the hall in his underwear.

1435
01:08:57,720 --> 01:09:00,719
Speaker 1: We're walking after a room and he realizes, oh crap,

1436
01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:03,280
Speaker 1: the door had closed, because where are you going to

1437
01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: put the key? You have no pockets. He walked out again.

1438
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:09,880
Speaker 1: Zero plan from this man, and he's standing there in

1439
01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:12,760
Speaker 1: the hallway and we start to leave him.

1440
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:16,160
Speaker 2: And you say, well, you were gonna leave your best friend.

1441
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess you're thinking, it's my wedding night.

1442
01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,719
Speaker 1: Every man for himself, it's my wedding night. I'm getting

1443
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:24,120
Speaker 1: my girl to the room. And you can use your

1444
01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:25,240
Speaker 1: imagination why.

1445
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,599
Speaker 2: Your own peril bezz friend locked out of his room

1446
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,920
Speaker 2: because his wife was asleep locked out of his room

1447
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:31,920
Speaker 2: in the hallway in his underwear.

1448
01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 1: You know why he's my best friend. He understood, he said,

1449
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:38,240
Speaker 1: you go, you go, buddy, it's your wedding night. I

1450
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:40,080
Speaker 1: am not going to slow your role as I'm standing

1451
01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:42,720
Speaker 1: here in my pumpkin pie underwear. And that is how

1452
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:45,519
Speaker 1: our wedding night ended. Well that's not how it ended,

1453
01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:48,720
Speaker 1: but okay, that's how we got to the room that

1454
01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 1: was NAPA.

1455
01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:52,880
Speaker 2: NAPA was beautiful and perfect the only other thing and

1456
01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 2: we don't even need to get into it because everybody

1457
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 2: was kind of hung over and exhausted in the best way.

1458
01:09:56,720 --> 01:10:00,320
Speaker 2: We did a little morning after brunch at the Archer Hotel. Well,

1459
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 2: I love the debrief the morning after. It's so fun

1460
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,880
Speaker 2: to relive everything. And you know what, it's been really

1461
01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:06,719
Speaker 2: fun to relive NAPA on this podcast.

1462
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 1: But it's only everything we ever wanted. It was everything

1463
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:13,840
Speaker 1: I ever dreamed of, everything you and I ever dreamed

1464
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:16,599
Speaker 1: of everything. Again, I use this word a lot. Everything

1465
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:19,800
Speaker 1: was so intentional between us. We had planned it to

1466
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:22,000
Speaker 1: a tea produced it, if you will, being the TV

1467
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:25,520
Speaker 1: people we are, and it came off beautifully.

1468
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:30,200
Speaker 2: I couldn't feel more grateful, blessed, not just yeah, I

1469
01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,840
Speaker 2: had the perfect wedding, but that I got to marry you, well,

1470
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:37,080
Speaker 2: you know, the beauty.

1471
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,920
Speaker 1: I think of that wedding had a lot to do with. Yes,

1472
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:41,680
Speaker 1: we're in Napa and the wine and the food and

1473
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 1: the people and all that. But we talk about this

1474
01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:47,640
Speaker 1: a lot seasons of life, and we are in a

1475
01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 1: blessed season in our life where everybody's healthy, which is huge,

1476
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:58,400
Speaker 1: everybody's happy, everybody's good. And when you were in this

1477
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:02,080
Speaker 1: a season, the season's this will not last. Bad things

1478
01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:04,800
Speaker 1: and shame things are going to change. That's inevitable. Life

1479
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:08,320
Speaker 1: is inevitable. It comes at you. So to embrace all

1480
01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:11,679
Speaker 1: of this happening, our wedding and our marriage coming together

1481
01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:16,240
Speaker 1: in a great season that was beautiful and it was

1482
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:18,200
Speaker 1: not lost on us, and it made us even more

1483
01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 1: emotional to respect that and enjoy it because it's fleeting

1484
01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:24,599
Speaker 1: and it won't always be that way, so we will

1485
01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:25,639
Speaker 1: always have that memory.

1486
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:28,280
Speaker 2: I feel so lucky. We got everything we wanted, and

1487
01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:32,640
Speaker 2: I feel luckiest to have you. And the thing is,

1488
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,320
Speaker 2: as much as we've loved to reliving this, it's only

1489
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,439
Speaker 2: just begun because we haven't even gotten to Austin and

1490
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:42,959
Speaker 2: Austin was a lot more spicy, yes, a lot more ragy,

1491
01:11:43,320 --> 01:11:46,040
Speaker 2: and a lot more dramatic, so we will get into

1492
01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:47,920
Speaker 2: it all. Wedding number two.

1493
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,760
