1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,800
Welcome to Fit to Be Real.

2
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:03,360
And a little extra.

3
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,960
We have a very special guest for you today.

4
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,440
Talking about something I don't really know a lot about.

5
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:10,240
So this will be fun.

6
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,000
And something I love.

7
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,200
And something Carly loves.

8
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,240
I think this would be your second business option.

9
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,440
Yes, this would be my career

10
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,920
had I not gone into what we went into.

11
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,400
Hey, let's film it.

12
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:22,440
It's about weddings.

13
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,440
I don't know why we're keeping it.

14
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:25,680
I want them to keep guessing.

15
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:26,480
What is it?

16
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,120
It's about weddings.

17
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:30,120
It's about weddings.

18
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,320
It's about attending them, being in them.

19
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,440
The best ways to get through them.

20
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,720
The best ways to maybe not the best ways

21
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,640
to be financially a part of it.

22
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:41,520
If you're a guest.

23
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:42,040
Yeah, right.

24
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:42,520
Or not.

25
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,040
We're going to talk about the other thing.

26
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,120
But our very special guest has been.

27
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,440
She's the equivalent of the movie 27 dresses.

28
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,320
Yeah, but not necessarily being in them.

29
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,680
Actually, we might find out.

30
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,320
We might find out otherwise.

31
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:57,040
That might be true.

32
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:57,600
Yeah.

33
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,240
We'll see.

34
00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,040
She's right here.

35
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,040
But we can't let her talk.

36
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,040
But you're not allowed to speak.

37
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:01,560
It's great.

38
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,280
This is fun for us.

39
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,960
So our guest is in sales operations.

40
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:08,520
We'll get into that when she can talk about it.

41
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,520
But we met her when she was three.

42
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:13,120
Yeah.

43
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:14,120
At the dance studio.

44
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,720
Yeah, she started dancing at mom's dance studio

45
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,560
when she was three and two and a half.

46
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,400
Two and a half.

47
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:19,760
Yeah.

48
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:20,480
Five years ago.

49
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:21,520
Look, she has a voice.

50
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:22,400
She's not here.

51
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:22,920
She's not here.

52
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:23,560
You didn't hear that.

53
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,720
She didn't say hi yet.

54
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,760
So yeah, we've noticed that she was three.

55
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:31,440
She danced through the studio, went away for college,

56
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:32,880
came back, came to Seafit.

57
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,920
She now teaches for Seafit.

58
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:40,400
She is our hardcore stretch teacher, tone up, bar in tone.

59
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,080
And she keeps us calm.

60
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:42,600
She does.

61
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,800
She has the best calm voice, which you probably

62
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,680
need in all your weddings.

63
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,000
And in this episode.

64
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,080
I would want her to be in my wedding.

65
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:50,840
Her name's Julia.

66
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:54,840
Let's get into it.

67
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:55,340
OK.

68
00:01:55,340 --> 00:01:56,800
I'm Victoria.

69
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,160
Hey, guys, I'm Carly.

70
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,080
And who do we have with us?

71
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,560
Hey, guys, I'm Julia.

72
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:02,560
Oh.

73
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:03,560
Whoa.

74
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:04,960
That.

75
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,560
Can you do it again?

76
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,560
Yeah.

77
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:08,560
Not as loud as you did.

78
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:09,560
OK.

79
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,960
Hey, guys, I'm Julia.

80
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,960
That was a very, like.

81
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,560
It's natural.

82
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,960
I want to call you on the phone.

83
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,960
I want to call you on the phone.

84
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,960
I want to call you on the phone.

85
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,960
I want to call you on the phone.

86
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,040
I want to call you on the phone.

87
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,200
You don't like talking on the phone.

88
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:28,600
I don't.

89
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,480
I hate it.

90
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,160
Wait, why do you want to call her on the phone?

91
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,480
That was like she was selling me something

92
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,960
and I would buy it over the phone.

93
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,200
It was more of like a.

94
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:37,480
Like a 900 number?

95
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:38,120
Yeah.

96
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,680
No.

97
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,600
Oh, no.

98
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:42,840
What's up, Joe?

99
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,120
You know, just live in the dream.

100
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,200
Live in the dream.

101
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,560
I, you are live in the dream.

102
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:47,680
I'm living someone's dream.

103
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:48,680
I don't know that it's mine.

104
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,560
You are always somewhere.

105
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,080
Yeah.

106
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,360
I am always somewhere.

107
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:54,800
That is true.

108
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,160
You're here right now.

109
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:57,320
I'm in fact here.

110
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:58,480
No, no, you know that.

111
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,440
I'm so excited to ask you all things wedding.

112
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,800
I think people out there are in weddings,

113
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,760
are planning weddings, even if you aren't.

114
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,120
We've all been to them.

115
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,400
We know the fun things, the not fun things,

116
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,720
but you've been to more weddings.

117
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:14,440
How many?

118
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,360
OK, I'm going to get the first question right off the bat.

119
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,840
How many this year have you been to?

120
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,680
This year, surprisingly.

121
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,000
Well, if I include the one I'm going to this Friday,

122
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,160
it will be four, which isn't a lot in a year.

123
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,960
But it's four weddings, four showers, four bachelors.

124
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:33,560
Yes.

125
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,640
That's what makes it a lot.

126
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:35,600
That's what makes it a lot.

127
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,480
Because she's always.

128
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,760
I still think four weddings is a lot in one year.

129
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,680
But also, didn't you have them every weekend?

130
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,480
Yeah, back to back.

131
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:43,040
Back to back.

132
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,920
I had a break this past weekend, and now I have one on Friday.

133
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:46,080
Yeah.

134
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:46,760
And then I'm done.

135
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:47,520
I had a break.

136
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:48,160
I had a break.

137
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,800
And it wasn't just like in Springfield.

138
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:52,720
None of them were in Springfield.

139
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,920
They was like Montana.

140
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,200
So that was a bachelor.

141
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,520
No, that was a wedding.

142
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,080
That was a wedding.

143
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,280
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

144
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,880
This is why we wanted Julia to come on today,

145
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,080
because she's always running off to do one of the things

146
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:06,480
that she said.

147
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,120
A shower, a bachelorette party, a wedding.

148
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,040
She's always showing the pictures

149
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,880
of the either bride's maids dress or the regular dress

150
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,880
that she's wearing as a guest, because you have to plan ahead.

151
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,680
And you have to be, you know, you

152
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,040
have to know when it's leading up to you.

153
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:21,880
You have to be ready.

154
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,480
You also have to know how to pack

155
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,280
if it's something you're traveling for.

156
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:27,400
So we talk about this a lot, because it's always like,

157
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,600
Julia, where are you going now?

158
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,560
Where are you headed this weekend?

159
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,440
And so in those little moments, really,

160
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,960
27 dresses does come to mind, just because that movie,

161
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,720
I think, everybody loves for so many different reasons.

162
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,280
But it's fascinating how different each wedding or bride's

163
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:46,720
maids dress is, which I'm sure you've experienced.

164
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:52,240
But you, from what I know off of the top of my head,

165
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,200
you have gotten to pick your own bride's maids dresses

166
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:55,920
for a lot of them.

167
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:56,800
For all of them.

168
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:57,720
For all of them?

169
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:58,720
Yeah.

170
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,800
For two out of the three, they gave us a website and a color

171
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,120
and said, you have to get a dress in this color.

172
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:05,720
And we were allowed.

173
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,240
She gave us some options that she liked.

174
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,120
You can, on this website, as Ozzy, sponsor me.

175
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,120
You can create a showroom, the bride can,

176
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,920
and put in like, she put like 20 to 25 dresses just of what

177
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,600
she liked and said, pick one of these.

178
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,920
They all came in the color and the fabric she wanted.

179
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,960
The same happened for another wedding I was in.

180
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,160
She was like, this is the color.

181
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:24,920
This is the fabric.

182
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:25,600
Any style.

183
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,080
Stop.

184
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,120
And then the last one I was in, it was any floor length

185
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,080
black dress.

186
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,400
Any fabric, any style, any floor length black dress.

187
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,000
That's what I did for my wedding 14 years ago.

188
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,720
And I thought I was like, trending.

189
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,520
I was like, whatever black dress you want,

190
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,360
that's what you can wear.

191
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,000
Because it was David's bridal only.

192
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,240
That was the only option.

193
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,160
And it was that stereotypical, like, clearly you're not

194
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,760
going to wear this dress again type of thing.

195
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,760
And then you, well, I wasn't allowed to pick mine.

196
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,560
No, I picked her a long black dress.

197
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,960
But I thought I was like totally new and different.

198
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,600
And now that's all you guys do.

199
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,880
I mean, 14 years ago, it probably was not the norm.

200
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,640
No, it was one dress, one style, one color.

201
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,080
Everyone gets it.

202
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,640
But now it's such a body positivity thing.

203
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:13,480
I know.

204
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,280
That's where it comes from, that it's like pick a dress

205
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:17,400
that you look good and feel good in.

206
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:18,240
And I'm like, okay.

207
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,280
That was never the case.

208
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:22,320
It was like, oh my gosh, you need to be a certain size,

209
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,400
a certain shape to even feel comfortable in this type of thing.

210
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,400
But you have to wear it because that's what the bride is.

211
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,440
And the thing that I like most that I see in your pictures

212
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:32,880
is that they're always long.

213
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:33,720
Yeah.

214
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,520
Thank God.

215
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:36,360
Why?

216
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:37,800
You don't like a kneed-a-chin?

217
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,160
No, I don't love a good kneed-a-chin.

218
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,080
But also, how many times do you get dressed up?

219
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,800
I know I don't get dressed up.

220
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,600
So when I go to a wedding, I want to dress up.

221
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:48,440
Yeah, me too.

222
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,200
And it also helps because then the bride's like,

223
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,400
I don't care what shoes you're wearing,

224
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:52,240
cause you can't see them.

225
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:53,080
Cause you can't see them.

226
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:54,360
So I re-wore the same pair of shoes

227
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:55,400
for every wedding I go to.

228
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,960
They're just simple, new shoes.

229
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:58,800
They're like 20 bucks.

230
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,600
Here's my other thing.

231
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,560
So you weren't in all of those weddings.

232
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,680
Will you re-wear a bride's maids dress to another wedding?

233
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,120
Probably just the black one.

234
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,280
I feel like some of the other colors

235
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:11,840
and some like they look two bridesmaid-y

236
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:12,680
where like the black one,

237
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,120
you wear black dress anytime.

238
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,040
Right.

239
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:15,880
I'm wearing one to the wedding.

240
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,960
So still though, as a bride's maids dress,

241
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,120
you're probably not gonna wear it again.

242
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:20,960
Probably not.

243
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,400
But it looked good on you for the day.

244
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:23,240
Yeah.

245
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,200
Okay, so that's still the same.

246
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,600
You're probably only gonna wear it once.

247
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,880
I mean, I'm gonna disagree with you though.

248
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:33,120
Cause I've seen all of the dresses that you had to pick out

249
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,760
and you tried on and you took a picture in your room,

250
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,260
not done up or whatever, but they're gorgeous.

251
00:07:39,260 --> 00:07:42,160
And I feel like they're not like, ooh,

252
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,160
she wore that to a wedding.

253
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,240
She was in a wedding and that like it wasn't poofy,

254
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,280
it's sweetheart, that line.

255
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,120
I don't know.

256
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,840
But it's still very much bright, in my mind anyway,

257
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,640
looks so much like a bridesmaid's dress

258
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,400
that I feel like if I rolled up to a wedding and that

259
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,160
they'd be like, did you get the wrong color dress?

260
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:57,160
Like, shouldn't you be up there?

261
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

262
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,400
And I'm like, no, I just,

263
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,040
yeah, the surprise made last week.

264
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,280
Well also you guys are all going to the same weddings

265
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:04,120
with the same people.

266
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:04,960
That's true.

267
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,600
So they're like, oh.

268
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,120
Yeah, me and four of my friends could wear our

269
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,560
bridesmaid's dress at anyone's wedding.

270
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,800
And they'd be like, why do you guys,

271
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:11,880
why do you go match?

272
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,360
Because you're all in the same dress.

273
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:14,520
Here's my other question.

274
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,000
Let's start from the beginning now.

275
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,640
Okay.

276
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,000
Is it still a big thing to get asked to be a bridesmaid

277
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,240
like in a certain way?

278
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,480
Sort of like a gender reveal, like a package,

279
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,400
like you open it up, will you be my bridesmaid?

280
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:28,320
Do they still do that?

281
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:29,160
Yes.

282
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:30,000
They don't.

283
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,720
I've gotten a lot of little mini bottles of wine,

284
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,360
a lot of scrunchies.

285
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,440
I got a few wine glasses.

286
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,480
I got a couple like cute little makeup bags

287
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,160
that have my name on it.

288
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,040
Yeah, I got a lot of stuff.

289
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:44,880
You get some swag.

290
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,600
And then you get a bridesmaid gift

291
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,120
the night before the wedding.

292
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,140
So, oh, did you not get that?

293
00:08:50,140 --> 00:08:55,140
I mean, your gift was a brother-in-law.

294
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:56,800
Oh.

295
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,280
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

296
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:00,480
See, I got more than that.

297
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,240
I got a Stanley.

298
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,040
One of our bridesmaids gift was a Stanley.

299
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,800
I usually get some sort of pajamas

300
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,720
that we wear the day of getting ready.

301
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,760
I have a ton of matching sets.

302
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,600
I got a little jewelry travel case

303
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,280
with my initials on them.

304
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,120
I got a lot of stuff.

305
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,520
I, well, somebody asked me to be in your wedding.

306
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,280
Please, who's getting married?

307
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:19,240
I want to be in it.

308
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:20,600
I love weddings.

309
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,240
Victoria's never been into it.

310
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,120
Yeah, I don't get it.

311
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,320
I love, I mean, thank God I love weddings.

312
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:29,160
Because I'm a pessimist.

313
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,000
Okay, so you get asked.

314
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Fine, that's great.

315
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,520
Congrats.

316
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:35,360
Awesome.

317
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,200
Awesome for you.

318
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,240
Then do you plan the shower as well?

319
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,400
So I haven't planned a shower.

320
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,440
The maid of honors do.

321
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:45,280
Okay.

322
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,920
I, you know, let them know if they need help to let me know.

323
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,720
Usually it's day of, can you come early

324
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,400
and help decorate the venue we're at?

325
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:52,720
Can you pay for some of it?

326
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:53,560
Oh yeah, that too.

327
00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:54,640
They're like, can you send me money?

328
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,440
And I'm like, yeah, please just take all my money.

329
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,080
The bachelorette's, I only planned one of them.

330
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,880
The other size is, again, it's like, yes, my money.

331
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:03,720
I'll be there.

332
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,280
But these bachelorette parties are not local.

333
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,440
Have you been to a local bachelorette party?

334
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:09,440
I find them local.

335
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:14,160
Okay, when you don't need a plane, train, or,

336
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,000
what is that movie?

337
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:15,840
You need an automobile.

338
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:16,680
Yeah, you need an automobile.

339
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:19,360
I mean, the closest one was Atlantic City.

340
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:20,200
That's the closest one?

341
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,120
That for people not in this area,

342
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,680
that's about an hour and 45, hour and a half.

343
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:26,640
Hour and a half, yeah.

344
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,640
But it's like a two night ordeal, right?

345
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:29,760
Yeah.

346
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,360
One of the ones, I honestly can't keep track,

347
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,960
they did themed nights, right?

348
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,400
Like you dressed up, we did a lot.

349
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,320
It was a 90s theme she needed.

350
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,640
I gave her some good stuff.

351
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,080
90s theme.

352
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,880
Did you dress up as one of your brides or one of the grooms?

353
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,040
So I've had a lot of themed nights.

354
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,200
One of them we did, you dress up as somebody

355
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,640
with the name of the groom.

356
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,360
So the groom's name was Chris.

357
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:55,600
And we all dressed up as Chris's.

358
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,200
So I dressed up as Chris Hemsworth.

359
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,440
I was Thor.

360
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,040
That was fun.

361
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,400
That same one, we did a disco night.

362
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,360
So I had like disco pants and then we played Mamma Mia.

363
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:08,840
But like in the hotel room?

364
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,880
This was just all like in the Airbnb.

365
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:12,840
We just Airbnb.

366
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,840
So before you went out or you didn't go out,

367
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,200
you just hung out in the Airbnb?

368
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,640
Well, these bachelorettes are like a two to three night thing.

369
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,280
So it's like you stay in one night, you go out one night,

370
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,400
you stay in one night.

371
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:24,880
Yeah.

372
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,920
And it's like booked minute to minute.

373
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:27,840
Everything is booked.

374
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,600
You had like a professional brunch.

375
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:31,200
Yeah.

376
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,520
Someone came and set up one of those long tables

377
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,680
with like little pretty everything

378
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:37,280
and had brunch brought to us.

379
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,200
I had one a couple months ago.

380
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,040
We had an at-home Hibachi come.

381
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,200
The guy came and set up his Hibachi table

382
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,520
and just made us dinner, which was delicious, by the way.

383
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:46,720
I'm like, this is amazing.

384
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:47,880
Did they throw it in your mouth?

385
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,160
Yeah.

386
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,400
Did they throw it in your mouth?

387
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,680
They also had a water gun full of sake.

388
00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:54,080
This is scaring me.

389
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,320
Stop it.

390
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:00,240
OK, how much does a bachelorette party,

391
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,240
let's be general here, how much does it cost you

392
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,600
as a bridesmaid?

393
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,920
Flight or no flight?

394
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,920
All right, give us one with a flight, one with a no flight.

395
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:13,840
One with a flight is probably $600.

396
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,760
One without is probably three to four,

397
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:17,920
depending on where and how much the price.

398
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,000
And you're paying for the bride.

399
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,080
The bride's everything.

400
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,360
So you guys are paying for yourself and also splitting

401
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,800
the brides.

402
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,000
And that's a no from me.

403
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,680
All right, can I tell you what I did?

404
00:12:30,680 --> 00:12:31,440
Please.

405
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,400
We rented a yellow school bus.

406
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:34,160
Sure did.

407
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,680
And we went to Manny Yonk.

408
00:12:36,680 --> 00:12:37,200
Sure did.

409
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,520
And then we went home.

410
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,320
We partied and we had pretzels.

411
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,640
We had soft pretzels on the bus.

412
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:44,160
I remember that.

413
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,320
And then we had like an old man for a bus driver.

414
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:47,040
Yeah.

415
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,560
And then he dropped us off at Manny Yonk.

416
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:50,800
We went to a couple bars and then he drove us home.

417
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,560
Great, because the bachelorette party used to be

418
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:53,960
a night, not a weekend.

419
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,880
Now it's a two to three day event.

420
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,000
And it's making me not that I'm close to getting married,

421
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,880
but I'm like, if I ever get married and I have a bachelorette

422
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,280
party, it's going to be like in my parents' backyard

423
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,760
at their pool with like mimosas.

424
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,960
But I feel like you're not going to do that because you've

425
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,720
been to so many.

426
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,200
And she sang four this year.

427
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,240
She's been to a million weddings.

428
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,160
I feel like you're going to be like, you're going to do

429
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,080
what I want to do.

430
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,400
Do you have a number?

431
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:20,880
Total.

432
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:21,480
Like, do you know?

433
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:22,000
Do you know?

434
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:22,520
My entire life.

435
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,760
Yeah.

436
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:24,480
Yeah, I count on last night.

437
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,880
I was 18.

438
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,240
Oh my God.

439
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,920
I don't know that many people, Jewel.

440
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,640
I think I've been to four.

441
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,200
And like most of them, they're all family.

442
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:33,400
Yeah.

443
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,440
Well, a lot of that's cousins.

444
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,680
A lot of that's cousins.

445
00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:39,120
Right now you're in your friends.

446
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,720
Right now it's all my friends getting married.

447
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,560
If you asked me five years ago, it was all my cousins

448
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:43,200
getting married.

449
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,600
And I still have not been to 18 weddings in my life.

450
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:46,800
I know I haven't.

451
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,960
So when we're talking about going to these weddings

452
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,200
in succession, I asked you this for the other day,

453
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,480
because I was actually curious.

454
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,880
Does the food get boring, like wedding food?

455
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,040
Oh, God, we got to drink again.

456
00:13:58,040 --> 00:13:59,680
Here's another chicken.

457
00:13:59,680 --> 00:14:01,200
Here's another chicken.

458
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,640
Like, the.

459
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:04,520
Bon?

460
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,400
They've changed a little.

461
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,240
At least the cocktail hour food has changed.

462
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:10,800
Your meal is kind of the same.

463
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,560
It's like chicken or vegetarian or steak.

464
00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:16,920
But I just was at a wedding two weeks ago.

465
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,520
The cocktail hour had a bacon bar.

466
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:20,840
It had chicken and waffles.

467
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,280
It had like six different kinds of wings.

468
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,880
It had like mac and cheese bites.

469
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,680
And I eat everything.

470
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,960
And then my meal got put down in front of me.

471
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,080
It was like shrimp and asparagus.

472
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:30,920
I was like, I don't want this.

473
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:31,920
You're like, I'm not even hungry.

474
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:32,760
I'm not even hungry.

475
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:33,560
I don't want this.

476
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,880
And I'm going to one on Friday and my meal options

477
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,880
were either ribs or brisket.

478
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,240
What?

479
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:40,880
At a wedding?

480
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,400
At a wedding.

481
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,840
I'm like, well, I don't know that I can eat ribs all

482
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:45,800
decked up and ready.

483
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:46,720
So I got the brisket.

484
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:47,960
Also, it comes with mac and cheese.

485
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:48,960
So that's fun.

486
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,240
Was this the Montana one?

487
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:51,800
No, this one is in Brooklyn on Friday.

488
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,960
The Montana one was very, there's a lot of meat.

489
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,960
A lot of like weird meats.

490
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,760
Not weird, but like venison, bison.

491
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:01,880
Bison, that's what I had.

492
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,040
I couldn't think of all the animals.

493
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:04,320
Brooklyn, that sounds hipster.

494
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,840
That's what it is.

495
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:07,120
Wow.

496
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:11,080
So you've experienced a lot of different types of weddings

497
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,640
through that.

498
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,360
And how, what do you drink so that you don't get wasted?

499
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,400
She just gets wasted.

500
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,880
Yeah, no, I just drink a lot.

501
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,840
No, the key is to drink water.

502
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,760
It's like you have a drink, you have another,

503
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:25,880
you have a water.

504
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,000
Do you actually do that?

505
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,920
I drink so much water.

506
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,080
Because they also refill in your little water glass

507
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:31,680
at your table.

508
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,440
That's always full.

509
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,880
Every time I go to like check my phone,

510
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,000
I chug my glass of water.

511
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,600
She black out, if not.

512
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:37,720
Oh, I know that.

513
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,440
But she goes to a wedding or bachelorette party

514
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,880
or shower every weekend.

515
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,440
So it's like, how do you go and just not?

516
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,200
I mean, I'm going to go big or go home.

517
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:46,960
Yeah.

518
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,840
So I'm probably going big.

519
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:49,760
But you're like, it's fine.

520
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,040
I am.

521
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,040
I'm definitely going home.

522
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,680
I'm going big and then I'm going home.

523
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:54,680
That's true.

524
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,080
That's true.

525
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,400
Julia, that to me, because of the type of person,

526
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,600
you're very social and you're very good at that.

527
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,960
To me, that sounds like a nightmare.

528
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,160
And I love weddings.

529
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,280
But the thing is, and this is what I do now,

530
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:14,000
is because of my job, I get a decent amount of PTO.

531
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,240
And I have very flexible working hours.

532
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,680
I almost always take off the day after a wedding weekend

533
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,720
or bachelorette weekend, just to give myself that day,

534
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,160
to reset that Monday.

535
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:27,240
I'll take off that Monday.

536
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,560
Even if I get home 9 AM on Sunday,

537
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,280
I'll still take off that Monday to catch up on the emails

538
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,400
I missed, catch up with a laundry that's piled in my room,

539
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:37,160
clean my house.

540
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,440
Because if not, all of that just piles up.

541
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,360
And then I'm crying by the end of the week,

542
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,120
because I'm like, I didn't get anything done.

543
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,960
I know, because you're just.

544
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,840
It's a whole weekend.

545
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,480
Have you dealt with any bride zillies?

546
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,680
Luckily, no.

547
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:52,280
None?

548
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:52,760
None.

549
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:53,760
No bride zillies.

550
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,600
There have been some interesting other bridesmaids

551
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,320
that I've had to just be with.

552
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,120
Bridesmaids?

553
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,680
Bridesmaid zillies.

554
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:03,880
Bride millies?

555
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,000
They're like the evil stepsisters.

556
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,880
Oh, we'll call them that.

557
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,080
And they weren't even evil.

558
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:11,640
It's just different personalities.

559
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,800
And I'm like, oof, I'm just going to go over there.

560
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,440
Well, that's what gets me is that she'll

561
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,520
tell me that she's traveling to some state or some whatever

562
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,440
with 16 girls.

563
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,000
Like there's so many females.

564
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,560
Because it's not just bridesmaids.

565
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:26,200
It's friends.

566
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,120
No, it's friends.

567
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:28,240
It's extensions.

568
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,640
And that's a lot of personality.

569
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:30,320
Yeah.

570
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,280
Of girls.

571
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,360
So how do you plan stuff like that with all those girls?

572
00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:38,000
And what if somebody's like, wait,

573
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:43,120
I just saw an Instagram meme, because I love reels and memes

574
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:43,520
or whatever.

575
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:44,800
It's a real.

576
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,640
So it's somebody saying, then don't show up.

577
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,520
And the thing said at the top, when

578
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,840
you're about to go on a bachelorette party weekend

579
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,800
and your friend says, I have no money

580
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,840
and I can't spend a lot of money this weekend

581
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,520
and she's at the bottom going, then don't show up.

582
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:00,160
That would be me.

583
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,080
Because how do you deal with somebody that's like,

584
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,600
I have no money.

585
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:05,720
I can't do any of this.

586
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,680
And then somebody said, well, this is what the bride wants.

587
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,800
You need to pay X amount of dollars.

588
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:10,400
Yes.

589
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,600
A lot of times, the big expenses,

590
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,480
they'll ask the money ahead of time.

591
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,120
Like if we have a sit down dinner,

592
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:20,840
a lot of times it'll have a prepaid so much per head

593
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,440
and we'll pay that ahead of time.

594
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,760
And then other than that, I'll just not drink.

595
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,520
I'm like, we're at the bar and they're like, do you want

596
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:26,960
another drink?

597
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:27,760
I'm like, no.

598
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,600
I'm like, I don't want to spend another $12.

599
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,680
When we've got cases back at the Airbnb.

600
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,720
And I'm like, I'll just shock on a white cloud before we go

601
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,120
and I'll be fine.

602
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:38,280
You're so smart.

603
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,040
How did you get to be so smart?

604
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,560
You're so smart.

605
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,160
Now the brides are like, you don't have to come.

606
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,920
But there's that like guilt where it's like they invited you.

607
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,440
They want you to be there.

608
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,080
If you really can't afford it, you can't afford it.

609
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:52,800
You can say no.

610
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,760
But a lot of times it's people just being like, oh,

611
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:56,760
it's a lot of money.

612
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:57,600
And I'm like, it is.

613
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,120
But we all did it for them.

614
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:01,040
That's the other thing is like, these are my friends that

615
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,040
are already married.

616
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,440
You're like, we did this for you.

617
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:05,680
It's your turn to do it now.

618
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:06,480
Right.

619
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,800
But I'm looking at your past four weekends shelling out $600,

620
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,320
$800 a weekend.

621
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,960
Then you have to get them a wedding gift.

622
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,400
What do you give the brides when you are a bridesmaid after you've

623
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,920
spent hundreds of dollars on them?

624
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,720
Just tack on another hundred and call it a day.

625
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,720
You do.

626
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,280
That's actually a good idea.

627
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:33,280
Well, because it's, you know, there's probably $50 to $75

628
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:34,880
for a bridal shower gift.

629
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:39,040
All of the, which I think is stupid, that girls have to give

630
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,120
a bridal shower gift and then a wedding gift.

631
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:42,000
Yeah, I think so too.

632
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,640
Why am I giving you all of my money?

633
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:44,040
Yes.

634
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:44,520
Pick one.

635
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,680
I'll give you one or the other.

636
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,920
Bridesmaids just need to show up to the shower.

637
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,360
You can leave the gift to everybody else.

638
00:19:50,360 --> 00:19:52,760
But even not a bridesmaid at these showers.

639
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,880
I'm like, I still have to get you a shower gift.

640
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,200
And it's usually like a pretty bowl or a plate or something.

641
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:58,800
But it's not cheap.

642
00:19:58,800 --> 00:19:59,280
No.

643
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,280
And then I'm sitting down with my checkbook the weekend

644
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:02,040
before the wedding.

645
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,440
I'm like, well, all right, I already spent this much.

646
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,760
What's the reasonable amount?

647
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,520
And I'm like, I don't know.

648
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:08,960
I know.

649
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,440
I don't know.

650
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:09,960
I know.

651
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:10,560
I call my mom.

652
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:11,720
I'm like, what do I give her?

653
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,360
That's something that I still struggle with because there's

654
00:20:15,360 --> 00:20:17,320
apparently like an unwritten rule.

655
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:22,520
If you're a couple, it's changed, obviously, over the years

656
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:23,600
financially.

657
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,720
I think the last time mom and I talked about it,

658
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,480
it would be like 50 a person in your couple.

659
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,520
So it's like $100 per couple.

660
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:34,680
And I was like, all right, cool.

661
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:35,480
I'm a single.

662
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:36,240
I'm going to pay 15.

663
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,760
She was like, no, you have to do 75.

664
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,560
And I was like, what?

665
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,200
It's $100 per person.

666
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,280
You're supposed to cover your plate.

667
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,880
You're supposed to pay for what your plate costs.

668
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,240
But I didn't pick farm at the then.

669
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,800
I didn't pick the place with $160 for the food.

670
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,160
You're supposed to give the bride and groom

671
00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:00,000
their money back for their wedding, basically.

672
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,040
That's a no for me.

673
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,120
You get 50 bucks.

674
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:04,600
I know.

675
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:05,080
I know.

676
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,040
It's so hard because you're just shelling out this money

677
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,360
and it's a lot.

678
00:21:10,360 --> 00:21:10,840
It is.

679
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,840
And it also being a single person going to all these weddings,

680
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,720
I'm paying all of it by myself.

681
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,320
Like the hotel rooms is, I do end up splitting a room

682
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:20,600
with my other single friend.

683
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,400
We kind of laugh about it because we'll both book a hotel room

684
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,320
and then like two weeks before, I'm like, well, neither of us

685
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:26,080
have dates again.

686
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,560
Let's just share a room.

687
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,440
But it is.

688
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,040
But even still, there are a few weddings where I had to get

689
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,000
the hotel room by myself and I'm like, I have friends who

690
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,960
are splitting this with their significant other.

691
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,560
I'm giving all this money by myself.

692
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:40,360
Yes.

693
00:21:40,360 --> 00:21:44,480
Even the wedding gift, they're giving more per person.

694
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,160
I'm still doing everything else by myself.

695
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:47,600
Right.

696
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:48,440
And that's hard.

697
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,120
A lot of money.

698
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:49,840
I know.

699
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,920
And are you invited as a bridesmaid with a date?

700
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:53,320
No.

701
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:54,640
You're not?

702
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,080
Usually it's every bridesmaid or groomsman gets a date.

703
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,760
And it doesn't matter if the bride or groom knows them,

704
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,640
but they're in the wedding, so they get a plus one.

705
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,760
I think it's changed.

706
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:06,240
Yeah.

707
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,400
I think it's not the rules that you.

708
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:09,480
I mean, that was how many years ago.

709
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,640
Because I had some people at my wedding that I didn't know.

710
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,160
And I think that's what a lot of these couples getting married

711
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,160
are trying to avoid not knowing people at their wedding.

712
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,480
But also, I'm like, I wouldn't bring one.

713
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,040
You wouldn't?

714
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:21,760
No.

715
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:22,840
I'd have to find one.

716
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,360
Well, I know.

717
00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:25,960
But even a friend.

718
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,080
But all your friends are there.

719
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:27,640
All my friends are there.

720
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:28,600
All your friends are there.

721
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,320
I have a couple of college friends who are engaged.

722
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,960
And I'm like, if I get invited to them,

723
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,080
I would like a plus one.

724
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,080
Because I don't know how many people will know with that one.

725
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:36,560
Yeah.

726
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,760
But all these weddings, I'm just like, I know everybody here.

727
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:40,840
I don't know the date.

728
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:41,080
No.

729
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,320
And you don't want to babysit anyone.

730
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,760
So you did the shower.

731
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,480
You did the bachelorette party.

732
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,120
Those are your obligations as a bridesmaid.

733
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:55,160
Is your obligation to go dress shopping with the bride?

734
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:55,720
No.

735
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,040
And I have gone dress shopping with two of my friends

736
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,560
that I was a bridesmaid because they invited me

737
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:04,400
and I wanted to go.

738
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:05,280
I think that's fun.

739
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,360
But it's usually mom and sister.

740
00:23:08,360 --> 00:23:09,400
Yeah.

741
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:10,440
I was just lucky in there.

742
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,760
Like, hey, you can bring a third person if you want to come.

743
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:13,600
And I was like, OK.

744
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,320
And listen, apparently I'm good luck because both times I went.

745
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:16,640
They found the dress.

746
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:17,240
They found the dress.

747
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,320
I'm two for two right now.

748
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,480
So if you need a dress, bring me along.

749
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,440
Well, David's bridal is no longer.

750
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,880
So where do you go to get a dress?

751
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,160
Do you know?

752
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,600
One of my friends got hers from Claire's boutique in Delaware.

753
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:32,560
I heard that name a lot.

754
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,920
There's I forget the place somewhere in Ardmore.

755
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:35,840
We went to a couple in Philly.

756
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,040
So like little boutiques because there's no big other

757
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:40,760
than Kleinfeld in New York.

758
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:41,040
Yeah.

759
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,680
There's no big dress shop.

760
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:42,920
No.

761
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,560
And from, you know, my little time in these dress shops,

762
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,960
their little boutiques take more time

763
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,800
to like understand what you want.

764
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,880
They'll like have you look on there online before

765
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,280
and like flag dresses you like.

766
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,840
And then they'll have those dresses pulled for you already.

767
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,160
So you don't have to like waste time looking through every single dress

768
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,000
where they have it already for you.

769
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:02,440
Gotcha.

770
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,120
And we just I just sat there with a glass of champagne and watched.

771
00:24:05,120 --> 00:24:06,760
That's what I would do.

772
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,200
I would be that one saying, listen, I know this is your dress.

773
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:15,200
So like I want to find this and help you find this dress for you.

774
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,320
That's what I love about bridal dresses.

775
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:18,720
Go do it, Carly.

776
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,040
Carly, I'll come with you.

777
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,560
I love weddings.

778
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,520
Actually, I want to be a wedding planner.

779
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:24,520
You want to be a wedding?

780
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,600
No, at one point in my life, I wanted to be a wedding planner

781
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:27,480
and being at all these weddings.

782
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:28,840
I'm like, I don't know.

783
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,560
I know it's a lot like Jennifer Lopez.

784
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,480
Like she had it rough.

785
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:34,080
The wedding plan.

786
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:35,480
Yeah, but she like found love in the end.

787
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:36,640
She's probably fine.

788
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:37,880
And it was Matthew McConaughey.

789
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,560
So it's Jennifer Lopez.

790
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:39,920
I know.

791
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,200
I mean, don't give in to her.

792
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:41,760
Stop it.

793
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,480
Stop this right now.

794
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,680
I just love wedding dresses so much.

795
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,720
I think what you two need to do and I I'm busy this day.

796
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,160
I'm very busy and I cannot join you.

797
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,280
But what you need to do is you're going to go wedding

798
00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,840
dress shopping with Julia and just get wasted and try on a bunch

799
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:05,200
of dresses as if you're doing a dual friend wedding and they

800
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,040
will never know and then you'll leave and not buy the dress.

801
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,840
Like Phoebe and Monica from Friends.

802
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:11,360
Yeah.

803
00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:11,760
Yes.

804
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,040
And then you can sit on the couch in them and watch TV.

805
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,200
Or Miranda and Carly from Sex in the City,

806
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,360
except she ended up getting hives and having to take the dress

807
00:25:21,360 --> 00:25:24,560
off one episode of New Girl where Cici and Winston go shopping

808
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,320
and they get so very drunk that she buys a really ugly dress.

809
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:28,680
They're there.

810
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,160
That's more like it for you.

811
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:31,560
That I think is the real one.

812
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,840
But then I'll just turn it inside out and wear it that way

813
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:34,880
and it'll be perfect.

814
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,760
Best episode ever.

815
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:39,800
Moving on.

816
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,000
Moving on to the more ridiculousness is.

817
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:43,560
Yeah.

818
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,160
If you have any fails or funny stories,

819
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,240
I feel like you have a lot of them.

820
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,160
I do.

821
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,920
One of the weddings I was in at recently in July,

822
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,760
it was a decent sized bridal party.

823
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,680
So we're taking pictures and the photographers

824
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,200
like telling us to move certain ways.

825
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,080
Like we couldn't all be next to each other because it was too

826
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:02,400
long.

827
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,920
So he says to some of the groomsmen like come kneel down

828
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,120
in front.

829
00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:09,560
So one of the groomsmen gets over, kneels down

830
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:10,760
and you just you hear it.

831
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:11,600
His pants ripped.

832
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:12,480
No way.

833
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,040
The whole like the seat and he didn't move.

834
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,400
He stood there for the pictures and I don't know if everybody

835
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:18,120
heard it.

836
00:26:18,120 --> 00:26:20,440
But I heard it because I was standing right next to me,

837
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,360
stands up and I look at him and I go, did you rip your pants?

838
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:25,240
He was like, oh my God.

839
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,360
And surprisingly enough, that is the third time out of wedding.

840
00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:29,400
I saw a guy rip their pants.

841
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:30,520
No way from dancing.

842
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:31,480
I'm dancing usually.

843
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,240
One of them he tried to do a split.

844
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:35,080
I don't know why.

845
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,440
And then spent the rest of the night with his jacket tied

846
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:38,640
around his waist.

847
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,160
This is his answer for that is so funny.

848
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:47,360
OK, so give us a fail or I guess that's a fail.

849
00:26:47,360 --> 00:26:50,240
I have this isn't one specific story,

850
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,200
but this happens at every wedding I go to.

851
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,680
And if my one friend started it and it just we continue to do it

852
00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,600
every wedding we're at, we find a man with a belt and we take his belt

853
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,800
and we make the whole dance floor play limbo.

854
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,720
It's so much fun with a belt with the belts.

855
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,120
We just take the belt and we add to people and we just start

856
00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:09,560
making people play limbo.

857
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:10,800
Hilarious crowd.

858
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,000
Do you pick the belt from the guy who ripped his pants?

859
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,680
It's like we find one of our friends, someone we know.

860
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:17,760
I'm like, hey, can I borrow your belt?

861
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,320
And they're like, oh, I don't know.

862
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:20,480
It's fine.

863
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,640
And they give us our belt and we play limbo.

864
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,600
It's so fun because everybody does it.

865
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,840
The aunts, the uncles, the moms, kids, everybody.

866
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,040
Everyone does it.

867
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,560
It's hilarious.

868
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:30,520
Take that to your next one.

869
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:31,720
Do you done?

870
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,680
Are you a dancer at these?

871
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,400
I mean, I know you're a dancer, but like are you a stupid question?

872
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,560
I know. But see, we it depends for us.

873
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,640
Sometimes we don't like to dance at weddings because people expect us to

874
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,840
like get the party started and to us, that's like a job.

875
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,040
So we sometimes we're like, OK, we'll get in there when we want.

876
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,600
I mean, if the music is.

877
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,600
Something I like, I do not leave the dance floor.

878
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,640
OK, second, a slow song comes on.

879
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,000
I'm getting your out.

880
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,760
I'm like, where's the snack table?

881
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,200
I heard there were cookies.

882
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,120
I'm going there.

883
00:28:05,120 --> 00:28:06,520
Let me know when the song's over.

884
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:07,640
That sounds like my vibe.

885
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,720
But other than that, I'm on the dance floor.

886
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,200
You are. I don't leave.

887
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,960
Do they still do the baskets in the bathroom with like everything you need?

888
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:16,480
Yes. Yeah.

889
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,280
Yeah, that was cool when I was getting a basket of flip flops.

890
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,280
And then it's gone before I even a chance to see them because everyone books it,

891
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,600
gets their pair and hides it under their chair until.

892
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,120
Oh, until it's time to put them on.

893
00:28:28,120 --> 00:28:30,200
Stop. Oh, yeah, they're gone.

894
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,400
And then the first like minute of the reception.

895
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,480
And are you after partying?

896
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,720
Like is there always an especially as a bridesmaid, right?

897
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,440
You have the responsibility of like you have to stay up.

898
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:50,760
Yeah. But the past few the after part or not, there was a there's a couple where

899
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,240
I think this was like a may it started as a COVID thing

900
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,280
instead of having like a separate place for the after party.

901
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,720
They just like extended the reception to include another two hours.

902
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,760
Really? These are just like five hours long.

903
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:08,960
Oh, my God. And I'm like, I'm so tired.

904
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,760
And the band and the DJ have to keep playing because everybody has to keep getting paid.

905
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:13,800
Yes.

906
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,240
I mean, yes, the DJ keeps playing.

907
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,360
Yeah, what do you do? Music stops and everyone's like.

908
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:26,480
No, but the reception time will end and the DJ will be like, OK,

909
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,200
after party starts now.

910
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,400
And that's when they bring out like their late night food and there's like pretzels

911
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,280
and cheese steaks and like pizza.

912
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:34,880
We had pizza at this last one.

913
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,680
And I'm like, yeah, I'm going to go get a slice of pizza and get back on the dance

914
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,640
because it's midnight now. Right.

915
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,240
It's a different feast.

916
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,240
It is what it was for years.

917
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:48,560
I thought so for mine, we had the wedding was early.

918
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,640
I don't like big gaps in between weddings and receptions,

919
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,200
but I had an away wedding, which was very non-traditional.

920
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,440
So I got married in the Poconos, so people traveled, had to stay overnight.

921
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,280
Now it's like a big deal back then back in the day.

922
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:08,040
But we had to have a certain amount of time because of the church or whatever.

923
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,440
So we ended up having a bourbon and cigar bar,

924
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:15,000
then a cocktail hour and a half, then a wedding.

925
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,240
And that was like a huge deal.

926
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,840
And then a bonfire after the wedding.

927
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,360
So, yeah, we did do like an after party.

928
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,600
And that, yeah, but you didn't provide.

929
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:30,200
Like what they're doing for Philadelphia weddings is like the staples of Philadelphia.

930
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:35,600
Yeah, their late night, like 12 o'clock in the morning moment was soft pretzels,

931
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,880
cheese steaks, tasty cakes.

932
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,480
Like it was all the things that I guess represented Philadelphia,

933
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,000
but it was at midnight like you didn't do that.

934
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:43,760
No, no, no, no, no.

935
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,920
Hey, if you guys don't want to go to sleep, we're going to dance around this fire out back.

936
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,920
And she's going to put a top hat on in his robe because he forgot to pack clothes for the hotel.

937
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,840
And we're and that was the beginning.

938
00:30:55,840 --> 00:31:00,160
Yeah, of the end of the end for for us.

939
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,640
I think before we do anything else,

940
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,440
it's really for me so I can listen back and remember what you said.

941
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:14,960
But for everybody, where is your go to wedding dress shop?

942
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,320
Like as a guest, where are you shopping?

943
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:21,680
Either Lulu's or Amazon.

944
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,520
Yeah, but I love Lulu's.

945
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,360
I love Lulu's also and I like them because I.

946
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,320
I know my size at this point.

947
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,320
That's always a hard thing.

948
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,120
Is it true to size?

949
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,640
Yes, if you guess a thing and this is what I found.

950
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,400
Everything is true to size if you read the reviews the right way.

951
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:45,840
And if you read what the fabric is, if you read reviews, people's people are so good about.

952
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,760
I'm this tall, I weigh this much, I ordered this size fit perfectly.

953
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:50,960
I'm like, amazing.

954
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:51,920
Yeah, that's also me.

955
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:53,200
I'll order that size.

956
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:58,400
But a lot of times reading what the fabric is, you know, if it's going to give a little

957
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,640
give, it's a little stretchy order, same size.

958
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:05,680
If it's something that might not be, you get a size up and you really got that same with Amazon.

959
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:10,080
I mean, I get so much on Amazon just by reading reviews and seeing pictures.

960
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,800
And I'm like, she looks amazing.

961
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:12,920
She's about my height.

962
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,240
I'm going to get that dress.

963
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:15,920
But I'm wearing on Fridays from Amazon.

964
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,040
Do you review?

965
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:18,000
No, I really should.

966
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,240
You should, Joel.

967
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,480
You could make money doing that.

968
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:21,480
I know, I really should.

969
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,040
Pay for these weddings.

970
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,840
For people that like weddings like us, Julia.

971
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,160
I don't not like wedding.

972
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,160
Hold, hold the phone.

973
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:32,560
I don't not like weddings.

974
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:38,760
I think over the years and I think a catalyst to it was Pinterest, where everybody was

975
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:40,480
getting ideas from other people.

976
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,400
Before that, you just talked to someone.

977
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:44,280
Oh, how was that wedding?

978
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:45,840
How like what happened?

979
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,200
There wasn't a picture board for you to be able to see different colors together or

980
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,600
how they did their centerpieces and yeah, there's some really, really, really good

981
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:59,440
ideas to keep things, you know, frugal or simple.

982
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,600
Like you're you didn't do centerpieces.

983
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:02,120
You did.

984
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:03,440
I did cupcakes.

985
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,280
That was your wedding cake was your centerpiece.

986
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,440
Yeah, cupcakes.

987
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,600
And that was before Pinterest.

988
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,720
I know I was so ahead of my time.

989
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,240
So I'm going to ignore you.

990
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:18,320
So after Pinterest, I feel like everything got sensationalized.

991
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,440
And some things are over the top.

992
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:21,680
Some things are not over the top.

993
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,760
I think, you know, there's so many pieces to it that are perfectly fine.

994
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,320
But like a three day, four day bachelorette party.

995
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:31,960
Yeah, I think is wild.

996
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,040
I think that's a lot to ask of your friends.

997
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,560
It definitely is because it's it's.

998
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,040
I mean, it's the flight.

999
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:41,840
It's the house.

1000
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,320
It's, you know, the food and drinks for the house.

1001
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:45,840
It's the outfits for the night.

1002
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,720
So it's even if it's not like a theme, it's still OK, we're all wearing black.

1003
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:50,720
She's wearing whites.

1004
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:54,360
Now I have to plan my black outfit, which is, you know, I have one black,

1005
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,360
very simple dress.

1006
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,760
I bought it to four bachelorette parties at this point.

1007
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:58,760
So I'm like, why would I?

1008
00:33:58,760 --> 00:33:59,760
Yeah, it's black.

1009
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,960
But, you know, some of them are more than that.

1010
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,040
Like I don't own a lot of blue clothes.

1011
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:05,040
I'm not a blue person.

1012
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,240
I was at a bachelorette party.

1013
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,640
One of the night themes was something blue and we all had to wear a blue outfit.

1014
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,040
Looked so cute.

1015
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,440
We're all in different shades of blue.

1016
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:14,040
Looked adorable.

1017
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,040
But I had to buy.

1018
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,040
You had to.

1019
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:17,040
Yeah.

1020
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,040
And I probably never wear it again.

1021
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,040
I don't wear blue.

1022
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,040
Right.

1023
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:21,040
So if you need a blue outfit, let me know.

1024
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,040
I mean, see, see fit blue.

1025
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:23,040
Yes.

1026
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:24,040
I don't.

1027
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:25,040
I don't hate weddings.

1028
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,040
I hate you.

1029
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,040
I just there are some things that I think people could dial back.

1030
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,040
Like, yeah, no, I agree.

1031
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,040
Save your money, you know, do it.

1032
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,040
Save it for my wedding gift.

1033
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,040
Simpler.

1034
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,040
Yeah.

1035
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:39,040
Yeah.

1036
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,040
I thought you were going to make fun of me for that.

1037
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,040
Are you getting married again?

1038
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:44,040
No, I want to.

1039
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,040
I'm not going to Andrew, but I want to.

1040
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:47,040
I'm busy.

1041
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,040
Okay.

1042
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,040
I'll be there.

1043
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:50,040
Okay.

1044
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:51,040
Thanks.

1045
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:52,040
Julia will go to the bathroom with you.

1046
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,040
I will make sure your dress is in the right place.

1047
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,040
I'm wearing a cigarette in the background.

1048
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,040
I'm wearing the same one.

1049
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,040
I'm wearing the same one.

1050
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,040
David's bridal.

1051
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,040
David's bridal.

1052
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:07,040
David's bridal, which is no more RIP and also not the dress she wanted.

1053
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,040
No.

1054
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:09,040
Not what you went in.

1055
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:13,040
I was going to say, I've seen pictures of your dress and that's not what I would have.

1056
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,040
So Andrew and I are the same size.

1057
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:23,040
I did not want a dress that made me enormous and him look like little because, you know,

1058
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:28,040
like ball gowns were big when I was getting married and I was like, I don't want a ball

1059
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,040
gown.

1060
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:34,040
I want a very tight mermaid comes out of the knee, like, you know, kind of dress and I

1061
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:39,040
tried them on and then I picked a ball gown because I am a ball gown kind of person and

1062
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,040
that that is me and I was like, I'm getting this dress.

1063
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:47,040
I put it on and people can make fun of it all they want.

1064
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:52,040
But when you know it's the right dress for you, you know, and I put it on and I was like,

1065
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,040
that is the right dress for me.

1066
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:58,040
Well, I also, you know, going to all these weddings and I've gotten good at kind of

1067
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,040
and knowing my friends to getting a guess on what like their dress will look like.

1068
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:03,040
Really?

1069
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:07,040
And I mean, even the ones that I went shopping with, you know, they tried on a bunch of different

1070
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,040
styles, different things and I'm like, no, you're going to get this.

1071
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,040
You're going to love it.

1072
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,040
And I like, you just know, but they have, they both, the ones I went with tried on like

1073
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:20,040
ball gowns and there's just something about a ball gown that I'm like, but it's so pretty.

1074
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:21,040
It is.

1075
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,040
And when else do you get to wear it?

1076
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:24,040
Right.

1077
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,040
Where it's like normal.

1078
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,040
But then I'm like, okay, but two hours into the reception, I'm going to be like, get this

1079
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:30,040
skirt off of me.

1080
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,040
No, you won't.

1081
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:36,040
But that's the thing is this change at the reception.

1082
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:41,040
So many people will have a big ball gown on for their ceremony and then get like a little

1083
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,040
white slip dress to put on at the reception.

1084
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:45,040
Yeah.

1085
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:46,040
And they'll change.

1086
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:47,040
That's a new thing.

1087
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,040
I don't know how I feel about that.

1088
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,720
I don't either because I'm like, if I'm spending all this money on a dress, I'm wearing it

1089
00:36:51,720 --> 00:36:54,040
until the second I have to take it off.

1090
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,400
But I also would want it to be something comfortable that I will stay in all night.

1091
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:02,840
I'm not a fan of the second dress and then people are wearing like the sneakers, the

1092
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,040
white sneakers with the dress.

1093
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:05,040
Oh, see, I'm a fan.

1094
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,040
Guys, come on.

1095
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:11,040
You guys get one night to be the princess of the ball.

1096
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,040
I'm a princess every day.

1097
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,040
Why are you wearing sneakers?

1098
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,040
Because do you know, feet hurt after a while.

1099
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,040
I wore belly slippers under my wedding dress.

1100
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,040
I didn't even wear shoes.

1101
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,040
I just...

1102
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:21,040
And that's embarrassing for you.

1103
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:22,040
I'm embarrassed for you.

1104
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:23,040
That's the same.

1105
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,040
It's just different.

1106
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,040
But I will say...

1107
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,040
It's the same, but it's different.

1108
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:32,040
I will say a bridesmaid hack is numbing spray on your feet.

1109
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,040
Stop it.

1110
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:34,040
What?

1111
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:35,040
Is that...

1112
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,160
I can't remember the brand, but there's this numbing spray that I think is supposed to

1113
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,040
be for like aches and pains.

1114
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,040
No, spray it right on your feet.

1115
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,040
You're good for a few hours.

1116
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:45,040
You're good to go.

1117
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,040
Oh, that's amazing.

1118
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,040
Yeah, gosh.

1119
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:48,040
What other hacks do you have?

1120
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,040
Do you have any other hacks?

1121
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:51,040
Yes, I have a few.

1122
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:52,800
That's a good one.

1123
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,040
Another one is always...

1124
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,040
I mean, this isn't a hack.

1125
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:56,400
This is just a thing to know.

1126
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,600
Always have your lip gloss with you because you're...

1127
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:00,920
As a bridesmaid, you're getting makeup done.

1128
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,600
They put your lipstick on there and giving you anything to go.

1129
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:08,320
So get a lip gloss with a little bit of color in it so you can just reapply as you go.

1130
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:09,840
Brilliant.

1131
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,520
If you have your makeup done and you're in the wedding, it's an outdoor wedding, it's

1132
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,720
hot, you don't need to like bring powder or anything.

1133
00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:21,280
All you need is a clean brush and just dab.

1134
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:22,280
Stop.

1135
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:23,280
You just dab.

1136
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:24,280
Don't wipe.

1137
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:25,280
Just dab the sweat away.

1138
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,280
It doesn't mess up the makeup.

1139
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:27,280
It just keeps it good, but it gets all the sweat off.

1140
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,940
Just a clean, dry makeup brush.

1141
00:38:30,940 --> 00:38:31,940
Always have that with you.

1142
00:38:31,940 --> 00:38:32,940
Such a good idea.

1143
00:38:32,940 --> 00:38:35,240
I'm going to do that as a guest.

1144
00:38:35,240 --> 00:38:36,240
Tell me more.

1145
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:38,600
I always have a brush with me.

1146
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,160
Whether it's for me or someone else, I always have a brush with me.

1147
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:42,160
Oh, wow.

1148
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,720
Are you holding a pocketbook?

1149
00:38:43,720 --> 00:38:44,720
I do.

1150
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:45,720
I have a little...

1151
00:38:45,720 --> 00:38:46,720
A little clutch.

1152
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:47,720
A little clutch.

1153
00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:48,720
Yeah.

1154
00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:49,720
A pocketbook.

1155
00:38:49,720 --> 00:38:52,720
Are you holding a pocketbook?

1156
00:38:52,720 --> 00:38:56,520
I'm trying to think of other hacks.

1157
00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:00,240
This isn't a hack, so to speak, but it's fun.

1158
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:06,160
I now, I think all three of the weddings I've been in, the bride has said, can you just

1159
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,920
take little videos all night?

1160
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:09,920
Yeah.

1161
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,420
You get the pictures.

1162
00:39:11,420 --> 00:39:17,200
Everyone's taken pictures, but getting the video of the groom dancing with the mom or

1163
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,760
the bride's maids all dancing together, that you may not get if the photographer is not

1164
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:21,760
there.

1165
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,280
I have so many little videos.

1166
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,600
Has that been your job to just get little videos throughout the wedding?

1167
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,720
When I send them and the bride can decide what she does with them, some people will

1168
00:39:31,720 --> 00:39:36,080
make a little montage of it all before the actual wedding video comes out.

1169
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,360
Some people just have them, but it's a lot of fun.

1170
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:41,880
Oh, here's another thing.

1171
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:45,240
This has only happened at one wedding, but it was so funny.

1172
00:39:45,240 --> 00:39:52,640
The bride's cousin brought a GoPro on a bottle of fireball with one of the poor spouse.

1173
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,720
It's recording every time someone takes a drink.

1174
00:39:55,720 --> 00:40:01,040
There's a 10 minute long video on YouTube of everyone in this wedding just drinking

1175
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,040
the fireball.

1176
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,240
It is so funny.

1177
00:40:04,240 --> 00:40:06,720
I mean, that is a good idea.

1178
00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:10,880
And it's like a GoPro, so you get the person drinking and it's like the wide frame, so

1179
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:12,960
you see everything happen in the background too.

1180
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:13,960
Hilarious.

1181
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,360
Then you're all sharing the vid.

1182
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,760
COVID and the video.

1183
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:29,200
That's where I insert a little thing that goes and cue that sound now.

1184
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:30,200
Great.

1185
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,480
I just learned this hack too.

1186
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:39,080
We got very strict instructions from our hair person at this last wedding I went to.

1187
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:48,520
The night before, we had to shampoo our hair twice, no condition, and blow dry it straight.

1188
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,520
Yes.

1189
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:56,240
So then the next day when the people doing our hair were doing it, everyone's curls

1190
00:40:56,240 --> 00:40:59,240
stayed until the last second of that wedding.

1191
00:40:59,240 --> 00:41:00,240
No way.

1192
00:41:00,240 --> 00:41:01,240
Everyone's hair looked so good.

1193
00:41:01,240 --> 00:41:06,080
My hair was up, so it really didn't matter, but the girls who had the long, big curls

1194
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,880
the next day looked so good all day.

1195
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,200
That is such a good thing to know.

1196
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,160
Well Julia, we are going to play a little game with you.

1197
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,160
Awesome.

1198
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,160
Are you ready?

1199
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:17,160
I don't know.

1200
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:24,480
We're going to find out all of the things that Julia loves or doesn't love about weddings.

1201
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:29,360
It's called rapid fire with Julia Gullia.

1202
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:30,600
Tell me you know who Julia Gullia is.

1203
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:31,600
I know who Julia Gullia is.

1204
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:32,920
I said Victoria, she's not going to know.

1205
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:33,920
She's so young.

1206
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:34,920
That's amazing.

1207
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:36,520
I have seen the wedding sing.

1208
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:41,960
All right, Julia Gullia, I'm going to say something.

1209
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,760
You're going to give me the answer, rapid fire.

1210
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,280
Lots of flowers at a wedding or no, not at all.

1211
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,600
Lots of flowers.

1212
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:49,920
Long dress or short dress?

1213
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:50,920
Long dress.

1214
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:52,320
Big wedding or small?

1215
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,440
Medium.

1216
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:56,440
Church wedding or non-traditional?

1217
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:58,080
I would do church wedding.

1218
00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:59,320
Church wedding.

1219
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,680
Pre-wedding fireball shots or please don't drink before the wedding?

1220
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,720
Pre-wedding fireball shots.

1221
00:42:05,720 --> 00:42:08,040
Destination bachelorette party or keep it local?

1222
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,800
Keep it local.

1223
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,160
Destination wedding or keep it local?

1224
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:15,960
Puzzles on the destination.

1225
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:16,960
That's true.

1226
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,720
All right, strippers at a bachelorette party?

1227
00:42:19,720 --> 00:42:23,720
No.

1228
00:42:23,720 --> 00:42:27,040
Give me a budget or give the bride whatever she wants.

1229
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,040
Budget.

1230
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:29,920
I agree.

1231
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,880
Long and funny speeches or not funny, keep it short?

1232
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,760
Keep it short.

1233
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,760
Stay for brunch after the wedding or no, my duties are done.

1234
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:38,760
No, brunch.

1235
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,480
I need that for the next day.

1236
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,880
I know this answer, but hair up or down?

1237
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:45,640
Makeup done or save the cash?

1238
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:47,640
Makeup done.

1239
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,440
Bridesmaid flash mob or no, that's 2000 and late?

1240
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,240
No, that's 2000 and late.

1241
00:42:52,240 --> 00:42:54,280
Oh my God.

1242
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:58,520
Bridesmaid and groomsmen make an entrance and be funny or no, just walk in?

1243
00:42:58,520 --> 00:42:59,520
Funny entrance.

1244
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:00,520
Funny entrance.

1245
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:01,520
Carly or Victoria?

1246
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:02,520
Pepper.

1247
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:03,520
Oh, Pepper, you got a vote.

1248
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:04,520
You got a vote.

1249
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:05,520
Guess what, Julia?

1250
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:06,520
I win.

1251
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:07,520
You won.

1252
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:13,520
You don't have to be a bridesmaid for at least a month.

1253
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:14,520
Oh, you're right.

1254
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:20,000
I do have to go to another wedding on Friday, but I'm not in that one.

1255
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,200
But it is in Brooklyn because nothing's lit up.

1256
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:23,200
Nothing's local.

1257
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,200
Oh my gosh, that's right.

1258
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:26,200
Julia, Julia.

1259
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:31,080
Julia, Julia, you won the game.

1260
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:34,600
You are the forever wedding guru.

1261
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:35,600
Yay.

1262
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,960
I'm going to be a professional wedding guest.

1263
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:43,200
You are very chill and I feel like you'd be a very chill bridesmaid and nothing would

1264
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,560
phase you and nothing would be too dramatic.

1265
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:50,760
So I mean, bridesmaid in my mind, a bridesmaid's duty is to be there for the bride.

1266
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,480
Not cause drama, not make anything about myself.

1267
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:54,480
I'm there.

1268
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,040
Maybe that's why I've never been a bridesmaid.

1269
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,240
This could be the longest day.

1270
00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:00,320
I could be that tired.

1271
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:01,320
I could be this.

1272
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:02,320
I could be that.

1273
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:03,600
But like, come down to it.

1274
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:04,840
These are my friends.

1275
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,840
The ones asked me to be in their wedding.

1276
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,180
I'm honored.

1277
00:44:08,180 --> 00:44:10,800
People think that being a bridesmaid is like, oh my God, I can't believe I'm in another

1278
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:11,800
one.

1279
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,840
I love the chance that my friends are like, I love you enough for you to stand next to

1280
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:17,800
me while I get married.

1281
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:19,000
I'm like, thank you.

1282
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,000
Like I love this for me.

1283
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:21,880
I'm literally honored to be your bridesmaid.

1284
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,040
Like put me up there.

1285
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,200
I want everyone to see that you love me this.

1286
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:30,840
No, but actually I'm like, I'm like, this is, I, people think it's such a burden because

1287
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,320
there is so much that goes into it.

1288
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:37,640
But in my mind, the day of you're standing up there, you got your flowers, your hair,

1289
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:43,840
your makeup's done and you look at your friend who is beaming so happy, could not look better,

1290
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,640
like truly the best day of her life and you just get to be a part of it.

1291
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:48,640
And I'm like, I love this.

1292
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:49,640
I love that.

1293
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:50,640
I love that for you.

1294
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:51,640
Me too.

1295
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:52,640
I love this for me.

1296
00:44:52,640 --> 00:45:00,640
That's the nicest thing you could say about your friend.

1297
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:01,640
Yeah.

1298
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:07,080
My friends are just the most thankful for the showers and the Bachelorettes and everything

1299
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:08,080
we do for them.

1300
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:09,080
But you're lucky.

1301
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:12,800
I'm like the most appreciative and just like love that we are all there for them, which

1302
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,680
makes getting through it a little bit easier.

1303
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:15,680
Yeah.

1304
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:16,680
And it's worth it for you.

1305
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:17,680
It's worth it.

1306
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,080
I'm like, this is, they are why I'm doing this.

1307
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:20,080
Do you cry?

1308
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:21,080
Every wedding.

1309
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:22,080
Oh, without fail.

1310
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:23,080
Oh, I love that.

1311
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:24,080
That's so sweet.

1312
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:25,080
Yes.

1313
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:36,560
They both looked at me for a response.

1314
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,680
And I agree.

1315
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:40,180
It is very sweet.

1316
00:45:40,180 --> 00:45:43,000
Well, thank you so much, Jewel.

1317
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,000
Thank you.

1318
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:49,720
And if you want to see Julia in person with her Zen voice and her sweet little nature,

1319
00:45:49,720 --> 00:45:54,960
you can come to her class and her sweet little nature.

1320
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,080
I love your little sweet little nature.

1321
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:04,920
Real quick before we send off, because I think all people want to know, band or DJ.

1322
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:11,360
So I'm going to say DJ, but I've been in a few weddings where there's a little bit

1323
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,040
of instrument that plays along with the DJ.

1324
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,720
There was a drum, the little drum set at the last wedding I was at and the drummer just

1325
00:46:17,720 --> 00:46:19,160
played along with the songs.

1326
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:20,160
So much fun.

1327
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,200
A wedding I was at, there was a saxophone player who just walked around the dance floor

1328
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,920
and played a saxophone along with DJ.

1329
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:29,720
But it's still, I mean, the band gets a little, a whole strictly a band.

1330
00:46:29,720 --> 00:46:31,040
You're like, okay, let's be done.

1331
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,640
Like I want to hear Beyonce and I want to hear Beyonce sing Beyonce.

1332
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:34,640
Right.

1333
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:39,080
And I want to hear Beyonce sing it, but having a little something to go along with it.

1334
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:40,400
It's a lot of fun.

1335
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,120
That is really cool.

1336
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:43,120
Yeah.

1337
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:49,320
I've also seen like a band during the meal, like playing some like, you know, chill stuff

1338
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,360
in the background while we're eating.

1339
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,880
And then when we're on the dance floor, it's the DJ.

1340
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:54,880
Like I've seen both.

1341
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,440
Oh, that, that bride has a lot of money.

1342
00:46:58,440 --> 00:46:59,440
Yes.

1343
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:00,440
Correct.

1344
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,680
That is accurate.

1345
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,400
We just love your little nature.

1346
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,360
And we really appreciate your hacks.

1347
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:09,360
Actually.

1348
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:10,360
Oh, yes.

1349
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:11,360
That's huge.

1350
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:17,600
Your hacks and we just are in awe of you and your stamina and your financial stamina

1351
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:22,040
to get through all of this and that you are so happy about it.

1352
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,440
I know that you're a night, you're genuinely a nice friend.

1353
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,040
I think we would be the opposite.

1354
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,040
Yeah.

1355
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:29,040
We would be the complainers.

1356
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,960
But seriously, thank you so much for taking the time today.

1357
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:32,960
Thank you.

1358
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:36,200
There is no one else we would talk about weddings to than you.

1359
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,400
And we're going to go dress shopping and we'll document it.

1360
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,880
I'm telling you, it should happen.

1361
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:41,880
It should.

1362
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:42,880
We'll go.

1363
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:43,880
Okay.

1364
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:44,880
It'll be fun.

1365
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:45,880
She's busy for the next 12 months of wedding.

1366
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:46,880
Going to weddings.

1367
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:47,880
We only have one more.

1368
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:49,440
But we'll figure it out.

1369
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:50,440
Love you, Joel.

1370
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:51,440
Thank you.

1371
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:52,440
Love you guys.

1372
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:53,440
Woo.

1373
00:47:53,440 --> 00:48:00,800
Remember, you are always fit at Lulu's and on Amazon, but you're always fit to be real

1374
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:11,520
and always allowed to be a little extra.

1375
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:15,880
With your little nature.
