Speaker 1:

We're back.

Speaker 2:

We're back.

Speaker 1:

Did you miss us? We missed you guys A whole bunch actually, and we're actually really sorry about leaving you hanging. When was the last time that we did a recording?

Speaker 2:

Oh, it's been since before the wedding.

Speaker 1:

It was right before the wedding because we had decided, okay, we're going to get married and then we'll come back to this. We just had a whole lot on our plate the month of December and now, just thinking back on it, so much happened that month of December up until now, honestly, when we've really been able to catch our breath. We got married, we bought a house, your business took off up here. I got laid off.

Speaker 2:

We lost a chinchilla. We moved, yeah, yeah, we moved.

Speaker 1:

Exactly. See, there's just so much on the list that I haven't even been able to talk about because it's been so jam-packed. But I think what we need to cover today is pretty much just about the wedding, because a lot of people have been asking what happened with the wedding. Yeah and um, it's. It's kind of hard to remember the day. What did you take from it?

Speaker 2:

what did I take from the wedding?

Speaker 1:

yeah, like what, just thinking back on that experience? What did you think about the wedding?

Speaker 2:

I couldn't have pictured it any better. I mean mean, it was, I don't know To me. I feel like it was picture perfect. It was a it was a long week, that's for sure Like that, like leading up to it, cause the wedding was on December 31st.

Speaker 1:

New Year's Eve. New Year's.

Speaker 2:

Eve and we started prepping for it literally like the week before, like we flew out to California cause the wedding was in California.

Speaker 1:

Yes, Not to say that we prepped the wedding a week before the wedding had been. We'd been planning it for months, but our festivities started about a week before the wedding, when we actually flew out to California. Now we don't really have to hide any details, since it's already passed. We got married in Rancho, palos Verdes, california, at Wayfarer's Chapel, which was a beautiful beautiful ceremony and that week was great. But you said that you wouldn't change anything. It was picture perfect for you. I would have changed the ending.

Speaker 2:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, good point.

Speaker 1:

Okay Well, you asked about the wedding, okay Well when we think of the wedding and after the wedding, I I wish there was something that we could have changed, but you can tell them what happened?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so, okay. So back to the wedding. So we were prepping for it. Everything was going good. Family flew in four days before the wedding. We were literally we'll get to this in probably the next episode but we're literally signing papers on our new home the same day we were doing the rehearsal. So that was really, really like whoa. We are knocking shit out right now, like we are doing all kinds of stuff. We're literally up on the mountaintop, um, at the, at the church, doing the rehearsal, and also the same time, you're signing our paperwork for our new house. We're sitting there together and it's just like it that I that right. There was a very surreal moment of like we are taking control of our lives, like we are.

Speaker 1:

So not only were we in the process of getting married, we were also in the process of buying our home and meeting the deadline until I became Mrs O'Shell, because then, if I would have became Mrs O'Shell before that, you know, it would have been a whole other obstacle course of being able to get the house. So, but that we'll talk about in another episode. But yeah, family and friends Chance's family is in Texas, here in Texas, so they were the ones who did all the flying out, as well, as his best friend, cormac, flew in from New York City that week and you will later find out that Cormac was the beginning of the end as we would like to say when it comes to what happened the night after the wedding.

Speaker 1:

So the wedding rehearsal happened. We were getting everything together. There was an issue with my dress. I don't know if I told you that, Did I?

Speaker 2:

text you, yeah, you told me Okay.

Speaker 1:

So I had dropped off my dress in Palos Verdes, maybe like four days before the wedding, because it needed to get pressed and get all the wrinkles out, because I don't know what the material of the dress was, but it needed to get the wrinkles out. It easily wrinkled, so I wanted to make sure that I had it the night before the wedding. The day before the wedding I went to go pick it up and it hadn't even been touched yet. So I'm there flailing and I'm like, okay, things are starting to just go awry. This is like the omen that things are not going to go well. This is the first thing that's just kind of making me doubt is everything going to go smoothly? So after we kind of got in the tiff with the laundry service that was supposed to iron my dress and we got that all sorted out, things were kind of smooth sailing. But I don't think I was a bridezilla, do you?

Speaker 2:

No, not at all. I mean I wasn't your bridesmaids, but I don't think I was a bridezilla, Do you? No, not at all. I mean I wasn't your bridesmaids, so I wouldn't know exactly, but according to everybody else, no, you definitely weren't a bridezilla. It was very chill. I think we were both very chill, but it's because we spent so much time planning it beforehand, or you did. I didn't do too much of it, but you spent so much time to where. When we got out there, it wasn't really a big deal. Like you already knew everything. You already had everything purchased. There's this stupid one little fly in our house that keeps yeah, you're.

Speaker 1:

I don't know why it's like leaving that garage. I see it like flying around the mic.

Speaker 2:

It's so annoying, but yeah, it was so essentially. I think that's why we weren't stressed and why you weren't a bridezilla was because of going into it totally planned. There wasn't really a lot. I feel like to fail either if that makes sense.

Speaker 2:

This church is known for being on time. Everything flows perfectly, so you didn't really have to worry about that. And then the reception was just a basic hall that like we didn't have like all kinds of different moving parts. You know what I mean. Like if you're putting on a wedding for a hundred plus people and there's catering and all kinds of stuff like our wedding was pizza and literally cheesecake, so like it was.

Speaker 1:

But I also have a theory. I have a theory that if you are a bridezilla, if you are a bridezilla, you care more about the wedding than you do about your marriage and where I mean when, when I was planning the wedding, I was like you know, this is really about us.

Speaker 1:

what we, like you know, for the reception we did pizza and cheesecake because that's such a big part of our relationship is cheesecake factory cheesecake, and we love pizza and cheesecake because that's such a big part of our relationship is Cheesecake Factory cheesecake and we love pizza. Everybody loves pizza. So we didn't go super extravagant on the reception. We didn't even know up until maybe a month before the wedding that we were going to do a reception. We had planned to just get married, and that be it.

Speaker 2:

Then we were just going to go to Disneyland. Yeah, we were just going to have a beautiful ceremony.

Speaker 1:

And then we were going to do like a little something in your aunt's backyard or your uncle's backyard or something, yeah something. But we just decided to get everybody together at the. It was a Masonic Lodge, that was the place.

Speaker 2:

Of all the places.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was amazing, it was fine. Was it the most picture perfect? You know, visual no, but again, I didn't really care To this day. I still don't care. I love that everybody had fun. We had fun, the main takeaway is everybody was on the dance floor.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

All night yeah, so that was really really fun.

Speaker 2:

Um, and now we're hearing uh, now we're nearing right the end of the night, um, people start picking up. It was really really like to see family come together. I think that was really cool for me to like to see your family and my family like working together to put the chairs back, and it was like we didn't we obviously we didn't we didn't hire people to put all of our stuff up and then everything like that.

Speaker 2:

It was an insanely casual reception yeah everybody just started helping put the chairs back in the corners and grab the linens and throw the leftover food out, and it was just to me that was really cool to sit back and just be like wow. And at the same time I also started at that point feeling really bad and was kind of like just thinking you know what it's been a long like week of you know preparing at the reception and all of this stuff.

Speaker 1:

It was just like a big adrenaline dump.

Speaker 2:

after the adrenaline I think I'm just getting really tired. We're about to head out, we're getting in the car Last one's there to leave. Obviously, halfway to getting to the hotel I look over at Haley and I'm like I don't feel good, I don't, I feel terrible and like I'm not going to admit I can be a little dramatic when it comes to getting sick, like, but this is our wedding.

Speaker 1:

As all men I know, I was like oh no, this is our wedding night.

Speaker 2:

I'm feeling. I'm starting to feel really bad. We get to the hotel and that alone should have been this perfect situation too. That was awesome because I'm walking in in my tux, you're walking in in your wedding dress, it's New Year's. Eve. Everyone's clapping and I'm just like I want to get to my hotel room.

Speaker 1:

What did you start to feel Like? What was the number one symptom that you were like okay, something's not right. The aches.

Speaker 2:

Just aching Hurting. No nausea yet or anything like that. So, yeah, we get up to the room and you know, of course, like it's our wedding night, so we lay down and then I just look over at her and I'm like nothing happening tonight. I feel terrible and like it's which is hilarious to me, because like what guy in the world would be like, no, that ain't happening tonight.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was supposed to be yeah.

Speaker 2:

And instead it was. That's exactly what it was. I felt awful. I mean, there was no way we were doing anything whatsoever. I felt so bad. Then we got on DoorDash, got CVS to come bring me some medicine. I had to walk down to the lobby with like 103 degree temperature and wanting to throw up and just feeling like crap. And the worst part about all of this is the next day is our little honeymoon, but with my family we're going to Disney.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You tell that part it wasn't necessarily like a honeymoon.

Speaker 1:

It was more of just a-.

Speaker 1:

Celebration yeah, yeah it was a fun outing because none of his family's been to California before, especially Disney, and I mean the kids were there, so it was supposed to be a real fun day of both of us showing them around, showing them around a park that has meant so much in our relationship. It's where Chance proposed. It's where we go every single time we go to California. We always make an effort to go out there because it's just such a happy place filled with so many great memories for us. So I was so excited and the family was so excited, that we were going to be able to experience that together.

Speaker 1:

So I tell Chance I'm like, okay, let's just try to shake this off by the morning so that you can go, because I know he was really looking forward to going. Everybody's tickets had been paid for, the reservations were made, so there was really no getting out of this. You're not going to tell nine-year-old kids, yeah, we can't go to Disney anymore, even though you know you've been hyping them up for it. So you know we're giving him the medicine. We're like, okay, sleep, don't even worry about anything, just try to shake it off by the morning and see if maybe you can tough it out for the day he tries. And then what is it? I get up at maybe five in the morning to start getting ready, because I plan to take the family there, to be there for rope drop and get the full experience and he rolls over and he's like, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm not going to be able to go. So I'm like, oh my God, okay, I'm not going to leave him alone in this hotel room right now. He's hunched over. And when Chance gets sick I don't know if it's just my husband or husbands around the world, but when Chance gets sick it's like a plethora of symptoms that range from oh I have a cold to I'm on my deathbed.

Speaker 1:

So you never know the actual severity of what the disease is man disease, right? So I tell him I'm like okay, okay, okay, help me. Just I'll pack everything up and you just try to get out of bed. I'm going to get you in the car and I will drive you to the hotel where I'm picking up the rest of your family, because we were staying in a different hotel. So we get him into the car. That's a chore because of just how sick it is, so it's hard. I'm loading everything up, I'm getting him into the car and I'm like okay, I will drop you off at the hotel and you can stay with your dad for the day, because his dad wasn't going to go to Disney.

Speaker 2:

We left our hotel. I went over to my dad's hotel because my dad wasn't going to Disneyland, because his feet were hurting and he didn't want to walk 10 miles around.

Speaker 1:

He's just got bad legs um so which I get to be able to really keep up. Yeah, so but I mean, it worked out perfectly. You were able to spend the day with your dad. Even though it wasn't the most ideal situation, you guys had each other for company, yeah, um, and then, when was it that we found out that it was covid?

Speaker 2:

do you remember a week later I think it wasn't that it wasn't right then, because I took a covid test- yeah, so hold on.

Speaker 1:

Let's rewind to remember Cormac we mentioned earlier. Cormac was the beginning of the end. We had hung out with him a few days before the wedding when he flew in. We had gone shopping, kind of showed him around Los Angeles area, and he had wanted to go take a nap midday, which I don't think anything of that because I'm a midday napper too, but apparently that's different for him yeah, he didn't that's.

Speaker 2:

He didn't really nap yeah, so on the reg.

Speaker 1:

So what was his like? What was he saying to you?

Speaker 2:

that he just wouldn't feeling good. Like it was maybe three days before the wedding and I know we keep kind of jumping around the timeline but like maybe three days before the wedding he wasn't feeling good. And like we were setting up for the reception and everything like that. He's like I just need a nap. He wouldn't like. He's like I just I just don't really have allergies, um, but yeah so, but we didn't think anything of it, like all right, he's just he's not feeling too bad. Like we're all thinking about the wedding and everything like that. But yeah, come to find out right when we uh get back home. And I talked to him and I told him, um, you know that I was feeling bad. Well, he knew I was feeling bad because I didn't go to Disney, and he went to Disney too.

Speaker 1:

He did come. So that was funny. It was me with like all your side of the family and like your best friend.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, um, but yeah, a few days after that he was like oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that my mom just told me so his mom had covid at christmas and so he got covid from his mom and then came out to the wedding and didn't realize he wasn't feeling bad yet because literally he left december 26, the day after christmas, so he was with his mom on december 25th, came out and then infected the whole family. Yeah, so I was the first one to get sick, um, and then that whole next two weeks, like everybody's home already, obviously, like we, everybody went to disney and then the day after disney everybody flew home and, uh, people started started feeling bad. Um, so that was a bummer, we, we, uh my brother calls it it was the, uh, the mass covid spreader, not yeah, it was a super spreader event.

Speaker 1:

Super spreader event um, that's that's what it was. I uh, the mass covid spreader, not, yeah, it was a super spreader event. Super spreader event, that's that's what it was.

Speaker 2:

I felt really likely nobody actually got like like deathly sick, yeah, or anything yeah this was pat. This was when covid is treatable at that point and everything so. Um, yeah, it could have ended better. Everything else was great, but I think me not being in disney, like you said multiple times that it almost made it a better experience for you as well, like being brand new to the actual family, you know, like being an actual member of the family.

Speaker 2:

The official initiation into the family yeah, like you got to go spend all day with my family without me yeah, and I and I mean it was a really good day.

Speaker 1:

One of my favorite things in the world is going to Disney with people who've never been, because I love to see it through their eyes. And I was able. Since I am the planner that I am, especially when it comes to Disney, I wanted to make sure that they were able to get on every ride and that they had nothing but a positive experience, you know. So throughout the day I kind of got to watch everybody smile and laugh and hang out together. It was good for what it was. It was very, very good. I mean, to this day I still wish that you were there. I don't think the kids even realize that you weren't there talking to them.

Speaker 2:

I know we talk about it and they're like Chance. We went on indiana jones and the rock was falling and I'm like I didn't go with you like, I wasn't there yeah, I know you had so much fun you didn't even realize that the one that was being celebrated in your family was not there but I know no, I think I think it was a good little bonding experience for you with my family and my nieces and nephews.

Speaker 2:

I think it kind of got you a little bit closer because you got to show them the park and I didn't interject Cause, like I'll be honest, like I'm the louder speaker, I'm I come off stronger. So I think it was I think it was you're.

Speaker 1:

You're part of that family, so you're, you're kind of the leader of that family.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think it was kind of meant for for me to get sick and you have that time with them. So that's why I say picture perfect and I wouldn't change anything about it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, well, I mean the wedding itself. We put okay. So we need to preface this by saying that we paid for the wedding all by ourselves.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we were proud of that.

Speaker 1:

So that was very. It made me very proud of us.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Because we were able to do what we wanted. Um, didn't really care about what anybody else had to say about it.

Speaker 2:

That's probably another big thing about like the brightzilla part you were talking about. Like we knew nobody could tell us like what they're gonna do. Nobody else really had an input um, yeah, it's.

Speaker 1:

I'm sorry, did you pay for this? No, ben, shut up.

Speaker 2:

It was our day, our wedding, our everything Right, but yeah.

Speaker 1:

And the thing that we wanted initially. So, rewinding it, we kind of planned the wedding on a whim. We were originally supposed to go to Paris and do a little kind of elopement thing. Then I found out that my grandparents were sick and we just didn't know if they were going to make it or not. Plot twist they did and they had a blast at the wedding, but we were going to go to Paris and do that.

Speaker 2:

When they got sick, we were like, ok, I really to have it in california where my family's at, so that my grandparents didn't have to travel and all that, exactly so. And it was also like right before that you had went on a vacation and you were like I don't want to do this without you. And then I had went on a vacation without you and I was like I also don't want to like go on vacations without you, and we're like we really need to get married, like we need to step this up, and I think that's how we came to the decision that we were just going to have the wedding like yeah but we were kind of in a time crunch because I wanted it to happen in a good time frame to where our families could go.

Speaker 1:

They had time to plan flights, hotels and all that fun stuff and I think we did the best with what we had.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And the place that we decided to get married, because we decided, okay, if we're going to have a wedding with everybody, I want the ceremony to be the most beautiful part of everything. I don't care too much to splurge on reception stuff. We weren't going to have a reception, like I said earlier.

Speaker 2:

A lot of people are there Up until maybe like a couple months before no-transcript. I just think about it like a little bit more, like should the reception be the number one priority? I just I don't agree with that mentality of we need to impress absolutely everyone and spend all of our money on that, Like the reason we had.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm sure people had stuff to say because our reception wasn't the most picturesque thing, but our ceremony was beautiful and that's as long as I had pictures of that. Like the important thing marrying you that's all I really cared about.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

But I was really happy with how much our families kind of chipped in to help. Since we're not drinkers weren't like, okay, what kind of alcohol are we gonna buy? I had, like my uncle and cormac and everybody. They kind of took care of the alcohol and they manned the bar and, you know, were helpful to the people who like to drink and nobody asked for help with flights or stay or room and board or anything like that.

Speaker 2:

Like a lot of times you know you'll want to fly family out or whatnot, but luckily all of our texas family flew out no issues. So that was all good too. Appreciate all of that. But no, I was really and I really I stand by him. I wouldn't. I wouldn't change anything about it, even the sick part. I liked you being able to have that special time with my family yeah, that was really nice.

Speaker 1:

Um, if we kind of go backwards a little bit, I know the timelines are kind of everywhere, but just so much happened I forget what happened in what order the day that we flew out to california chinchilla died our chinchilla died our chinchilla died, which was like my best friend, so like I was a big gamer at the time.

Speaker 2:

Um, and I have this chinchilla that literally every night I would let out of his cage and he would come up and he would jump on me and sit with me while I played video games with my friends or whatever. And just I loved that guy so much and so did Haley. We had an actual bond with him. Like this is a basically rodent you're talking about that. When you walk up to the cage it would walk up to the edge Like pick me up, pet me, give me treats.

Speaker 1:

It's hard to make me cry.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so this is Christmas Eve. We're flying out to go.

Speaker 2:

It was on Christmas Eve, which made it even worse To go there and, yeah, 11 o'clock in the morning we wake up and I I had accidentally left one of the cage doors open or whatever and one of the dogs got ahold of him. But one of the dogs got ahold of him the day before. That happened the day before, and he squealed and then was fine, like our dogs aren't aggressive, like our dogs aren't going to eat him. But chinchillas are one of the most fragile animals like in the world.

Speaker 1:

Literally like you just squeeze them a little bit and their organs just like, yeah, um, that happened the day before and I heard a squeal and I freaked out because that was a. That was a different squeal than I heard before but then he was fine like he was he was a little bit yeah, obviously scared or whatever.

Speaker 2:

And anyways, long story short, the next day we woke up and he was a lot worse. He was barely breathing and we had to take him and put him down. Yeah, we had to have.

Speaker 1:

Like a few hours before our flight.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we're literally leaving, like we were supposed to leave at noon and we ended up delaying our flight till later that evening because we had to take him to the vet to go see if they could help them but in the back of our mind we kind of knew it was they were gonna put him down.

Speaker 1:

We just couldn't watch him suffer yeah, that was, that was a bummer and then so we, literally we, he, he was put down and we had to just go and board our plane.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. So now we're like flying out to California for our wedding and we're both just like crying on the plane like the whole way there Because this isn't happy, Like nothing's happy, about what just happened. But I think once we got there it was kind of.

Speaker 1:

We made ourselves switch gears to. Okay is this is we're in wedding mode. We are getting married. Yeah, you know we will grieve after we celebrate. Yeah, because no one's going to have any fun if we're here just depressed. Yeah it was terrible For a week. So, yeah, that happened and that was really depressing and that kind of took a turn for the worst, but all in all it was a great time.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, highly recommend getting married if you're in love.

Speaker 1:

Yes, and please invest in a videographer and a photographer.

Speaker 2:

I think that was so. Like you know, a lot of people might we won't even say dollars, but spend a lot of money on drinks and alcohol and food or whatnot. But like we put all of our money towards the photographer and videographer of our ceremony and then we had them at the reception for an hour so they got us in our first dance and everything like that, and it was perfectly fine. Perfectly fine. But, um, I would, I would highly highly recommend spending the money on a good videographer so you can cherish that moment forever. I mean, hayley and I still to this day.

Speaker 2:

I'd say, once a month, we'll look we watch our video watch the video and just be like oh and then, like that, we had full speeches. We had all the videos of the entire full speeches. The speeches were phenomenal. My brother gave a great one, hayley's dad gave a great one. Um it was. It was phenomenal it was really, really good.

Speaker 2:

I I loved being able to go back and watch the whole speech, because when you're sitting there and like everyone's looking at you and you know you, I don't think you like really take it all in. So to have the video, to be able to listen back to the speeches and to be able to watch you dance with your mom or your dad or watch your first dance or all that stuff like experience it from another view, it's just so worth it and if you can only afford, or if you're you know about to get sick with COVID and you really can't focus on anything.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, except the fact that you're sick. But wouldn't you say like. So if somebody was like I can only afford one, like to put like videography or photography, which one would you do?

Speaker 1:

videography 100. I just think there's so much more emotion that you can capture in video than in photo and you can, like we have beautiful, beautiful wedding portraits.

Speaker 1:

They're, they're gorgeous, but the the video is just the movement, the livelihood of it, the everything I think was because you can still I mean, it's something to look back on when you know when your grandparents are gone and you know you get to see the smiles on their faces again and you can actually see them moving in real time versus, you know, just kind of stuck in a picture. So that's something that I will always cherish and I will always vouch for people to really invest in a quality videographer.

Speaker 2:

For sure.

Speaker 1:

And be picky about it. 110%, just find somebody who matches your style. I wanted mine to kind of feel like a movie, and the person that we hired did exactly that, and I couldn't have asked for it to be more beautiful. Like, like you said, we watch it. I mean it's it's pinned on my instagram profile. Um, we'll pin it to no niche needed or I'll post it on no niche needed so everybody can see the video.

Speaker 2:

It was such a good day it was such an amazing day and the fact that we did it all at the same time of also putting money down on a house, signing the contract, talking to inspectors, doing all of that while we're also literally at our reception hall putting that together was just I know, pat ourselves on the back.

Speaker 1:

We did that thing so we'll go more in depth on, like the house process, you know, moving and everything.

Speaker 2:

Maybe next episode We'll go into after the wedding.

Speaker 1:

We did a whole bunch and there's a reason why we haven't got to kind of revamp the podcast since December of last year. There's just been so much going on, but in the best way. I mean. Life is so unpredictable and when it gets going, just enjoy it.

Speaker 2:

So stay tuned for the next episode.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we'll see you then.

Speaker 2:

Awesome.
