SPEAKER_00 0:00

And welcome back to Vitals and Values. We took a few week hiatus for a few important things. A couple pivotal moments in someone's life. Our wedding and our honeymoon.

SPEAKER_03 0:15

Kind of big deals.

SPEAKER_00 0:16

Kind of big deals. We got through most of the wedding with with different um with different stuff, but then obviously uh two weeks of honeymoon, we were not recording that many episodes.

SPEAKER_03 0:28

No, we had all the intentions of getting ahead, but it did not happen.

SPEAKER_00 0:33

Yep. Just like everything in life, you can do anything, but you can't do everything. Correct. And we all have to have priorities. And we let it go. We took a couple weeks off.

SPEAKER_03 0:44

Maybe uh maybe people uh were happy to not hear us for a couple weeks, but here we are, back at it.

SPEAKER_00 0:49

Crazy enough, from a viewership perspective, our views just kind of chugged along. They didn't go as good just because there was new episodes, but like we're still seeing plenty of people listening to the episodes last three last month.

SPEAKER_03 1:02

Because we're lots of fun.

SPEAKER_00 1:03

I guess we're cool. We're so fun. We're unique talking about health and science and so interviews and stuff.

SPEAKER_03 1:10

And all the good things. But we're gonna be slightly different than that today, I would imagine. Yeah. In our conversation about how that all went.

SPEAKER_00 1:19

We're going to the recoup, the wedding, the honeymoon, uh, what we did, what were our thoughts.

SPEAKER_03 1:24

Um, we tried to stay healthy or didn't.

SPEAKER_00 1:27

Oh, keep watching because I'm gonna tell you how people say a lot that if you go to Italy and Europe, uh you can basically eat what you want and lose weight because uh we don't know that. Wait, wait till the wait till the farther in the episode we talk about it.

SPEAKER_01 1:44

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 1:44

Uh, because I put that to the test and we'll see how that happened. Um, but from the wedding perspective, uh kind of go through the 30,000 foot from your lens. Like, what did we do? Uh how was the process?

SPEAKER_03 2:00

Everything started. So we were married on Saturday. I feel like everything kind of started Friday afternoon when we're getting ready to go for the rehearsal, the rehearsal dinner, which uh for people that are not in our lives, um, we ended up deciding to do the rehearsal dinner at my house.

SPEAKER_00 2:19

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_03 2:20

And shout out to my sister Jana. She said, Well, I'll do the food.

SPEAKER_00 2:25

Chef. Fantastic.

SPEAKER_03 2:27

So we looked at some caterers. We looked at some rest and Chris.

SPEAKER_00 2:31

Chris made an incredible tri-tip.

SPEAKER_03 2:33

We looked at some places. We thought about caterers. Everything's kind of like meh or expensive. And I was like, I kind of just want to do it at my house. But it that's a lot of work. So Jana stepped in and said, I'll do it. And then Chris, her husband, stepped in and said, All grill tri-tip.

SPEAKER_00 2:48

Yeah. Cause like it was amazing. Oh, because because like the whole from my standpoint is we're going through a rehearsal dinner. Like the people can sometimes treat it as like almost like the mini wedding.

SPEAKER_01 2:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 2:58

And people drop some serious cash on a rehearsal dinner.

SPEAKER_03 3:00

We just wanted it fun.

SPEAKER_00 3:02

Well, you have two choices here. You either go intimate and foodie, and you're gonna drop five grand before you battery.

SPEAKER_03 3:09

Fancy fancy meal.

SPEAKER_00 3:10

Yeah, for because it was gonna be for 30 plus people. Um, or you go more casual, but then the food's never that good. It's like fine, but it's casual and you save some money and you create a better ambiance because sometimes a lot of these like nicer restaurants where you're more foody, they're a little more stuff, stuffy.

SPEAKER_03 3:29

Yeah. Like we didn't want that.

SPEAKER_00 3:31

We wanted people to inter like to interact, mix and mingle. We wanted to have fun and like create some lively energy. And yeah, I didn't think it was gonna happen that way. And super important, I practice what I preach.

SPEAKER_01 3:44

What?

SPEAKER_00 3:45

I am I don't I believe in abundance. I'm not a scarcity person, but I'm also a man with a budget. And we had a budget, and I was like, I s we stuck to that.

SPEAKER_03 3:55

We did great.

SPEAKER_00 3:56

We did a great job.

SPEAKER_03 3:57

Um, so I I what surprised me uh starting that whole wedding weekend out was the rehearsal dinner. First of all, it went so well, and I had so much fun.

SPEAKER_01 4:09

Yes.

SPEAKER_03 4:10

Like I was shocked at how like the end of the night, I was just like, that was so fun.

SPEAKER_00 4:15

Well, because like um, we had Martha's pizza, uh, Chris made tri-tip, Jana made a couple different lentil type salads.

SPEAKER_03 4:24

And lentil salad, some roasted potatoes, a carrot salad, and then Mediterranean style Mediterranean vibe across the board.

SPEAKER_00 4:31

We went to Nantucket and got a hodgepodge of succulent desserts and bread.

SPEAKER_03 4:38

And shout out to Louise Earl Butcher. They gave us the most beautiful charcuterie board.

SPEAKER_00 4:44

Yep. Charcuterie board was awesome. So fun. Um, there were actually alcoholic beverages. I even may have had one or two.

SPEAKER_03 4:50

You did.

SPEAKER_00 4:51

I also had a Diet Coke, obviously.

SPEAKER_03 4:53

Ice champagne.

SPEAKER_00 4:54

And um, and so yeah, so that whole process went really well. Everyone mixed and mingled really well. People are inside, outside. Shout out to Josh. I gotta say it. What? Oh all right. So so Josh, I love you.

SPEAKER_03 5:09

And Josh is one of his groomsmen.

SPEAKER_00 5:11

Yeah, well, my groomsman, uh, he's the director of Antidiet Diet Club. And like, honestly, he feels so bad, and it's not a big deal. It is what it is. Our the our the living room is a sunken living room and it's hardwood throughout. And so if you don't know, that hardwood can create a looks like it's all flat. It looks like it's all flat. And here's right at the beginning of the night. So you can't blame alcohol, you can't blame anything. Like Josh had a full glass of red wine, didn't notice the step down, fell and lobbed an entire glass of red wine onto the carpet. It was a rug, so it's not as bad. And then onto a white ottoman. And uh he felt so bad. I'm like, bro, it's it's okay. The rug's not that great. The ottoman, whatever. And actually, we got we got quite a bit out. Yeah, it looks it's all right. It's fine. We twisted the other way, and it's whatever. It's fine. It's just stuff, people. It's just stuff. Uh, but yeah, so that and then my groomsman gifts were a heck of a hit. I got all my groomsman custom bobbleheads. It was a hit, and everyone lost their friggin' minds. They were so good. If you guys haven't gone to like Josh's Instagram or a couple of these different things, oh my gosh, they turned out so well.

SPEAKER_03 6:31

What's Josh's Instagram?

SPEAKER_00 6:33

I don't even know.

SPEAKER_03 6:34

Isn't it like six something?

SPEAKER_00 6:35

That's what I'm I can't remember what it is.

SPEAKER_03 6:37

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 6:38

Just look up Josh Sycamot. Josh Sycamot. There you go.

SPEAKER_03 6:41

Um, I like how we haven't even gotten through the rehearsal dinner.

SPEAKER_00 6:44

I know, and we're already like five minutes in. People are like, why do we care?

SPEAKER_03 6:50

This is fun. Um, so rehearsal dinner was awesome.

SPEAKER_00 6:52

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 6:53

Couldn't go better. The w weather was beautiful, people went in and out, mingled, food is great there.

SPEAKER_00 6:58

And then wedding day.

SPEAKER_03 7:00

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 7:01

I would like to put it out there that I'm not kidding you. Rehearsal dinner, wedding, and honeymoon could not have gone more smoothly and better. It all went so well. Other than two snafuos we'll go into, and they're both my fault. And not really fault, but reality.

SPEAKER_03 7:19

What are you referring to?

SPEAKER_00 7:20

I got a cold. Oh I was fighting a cold for literally 12 days to the point where finally the day before the we left for our honeymoon, I got an anti because I just was not kicking it.

SPEAKER_03 7:32

So I I can't believe it lasted that long. And I it is um it is an amazing uh miracle that I did not get sick. I don't know how.

SPEAKER_00 7:41

It's definitely not a healthier lifestyle than me.

SPEAKER_03 7:46

Um but okay, yeah, wedding day went great.

SPEAKER_00 7:50

You got uh house is beautiful.

SPEAKER_03 7:53

Great friends were perfect. Shout out to Becca Horn, one of my friends. She held everything together. It was great.

SPEAKER_00 8:00

Becca is the living, breathing 27 dresses.

SPEAKER_03 8:02

Yeah, so she literally she has been in 20. I think we were the 27th.

SPEAKER_00 8:06

It was it was like 26 or 27.

SPEAKER_03 8:07

She had been in 26 weddings, I think. So I think we were 27.

SPEAKER_00 8:10

That was wild.

SPEAKER_03 8:11

She was she she definitely knows weddings, let me just tell you.

SPEAKER_00 8:15

And then so you got ready there. Uh we got ready at Pat's.

SPEAKER_03 8:19

And tell everybody your favorite part.

SPEAKER_00 8:21

Okay, so it's hot, but I was like, Pat lives right downtown, I don't know, uh half a mile from um Le Grave. Mile from LaGrave. Yeah. Um, and he's right next to a bunch of lime scooters and bikes. And I thought there'd be nothing cooler than us suited and booted, taking scooters, electric scooters through downtown to uh Le Grave for the wedding. And we did it, and our videographer was there, and we're just all cruising. And what's crazy was there was a bunch of stuff happening downtown. So there's cops everywhere. We're technically probably breaking the law because I don't think you're supposed to be on the streets, but we're just cruising. And you could tell it's a wedding. Like I'm suited and booted, we're all in black suits, and so we're we're we're scootering down Monroe, and everyone's kind of looking at us, and like cage people are like, yeah, because they can kind of get the vibe that's coming. And I go, Don't mind me, I'm just gonna get married. I was like, Don't mind me, I'm gonna get married. And then everyone's just like, Woo! And I'm just scootering through downtown to it. I'm so excited to see the videos from that because our videographer scootered with us, um, or at least before that. He actually didn't get that part. We did it around Pat's house beforehand. Oh, okay. Um, so he didn't get me like down Monroe, just like going, Don't mind me, I'm about to get married, and everyone going, woo, but it was so much fun.

SPEAKER_03 9:48

You had a great time.

SPEAKER_00 9:49

Oh, it was so perfect.

SPEAKER_03 9:50

And stay tuned, electric scooters and bikes come back in.

SPEAKER_00 9:53

They do.

SPEAKER_03 9:54

But they play a big role.

SPEAKER_00 9:56

Um, and so yeah, so we got to the wedding. Obviously, Chat GPT, shout out to you for helping us set up our entire schedule.

SPEAKER_01 10:03

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 10:04

Because our schedule was perfect. It was great. Like we never felt rushed. We decided to do the video the the photography, the photos before the wedding. So we did a first look before the wedding. Uh-huh. Because it's just like, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 10:17

The timing just is hard.

SPEAKER_00 10:18

Everyone trying to shove in all these pictures in between the wedding and the reception, and then people every every wedding I've ever been to, there's always a moment where someone gets snappy because you're trying to do so much and so much, so little time. It's just not worth it. Like for that one look, I didn't we what? We did a first look.

SPEAKER_03 10:36

We did.

SPEAKER_00 10:36

I didn't cry. I had something in my eye.

SPEAKER_03 10:39

Somebody between the two of us may have had wet eyes.

SPEAKER_00 10:43

I no, I no, it was hot in that room. It was hot in the room. I didn't cry.

SPEAKER_03 10:49

Okay. I didn't call whatever you say. Whatever you say.

SPEAKER_00 10:51

Yeah, we so we did a first look in the chapel on the side.

SPEAKER_03 10:54

It was like so everything was super relaxed. I was super like not nervous. Everything went great.

SPEAKER_00 11:01

Well, and I think one of the things, like through this whole process of us getting married, some of it probably has to do with age. Like it just feels different when you're in your 30s. Um, you kind of know who you are, you know what you want, all this kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_03 11:15

It matters to you.

SPEAKER_00 11:16

Yeah. Um, and obviously, from our perspective of faith and values, we both went into this whole wedding process going, it's one freaking day. Like, it could all go to shit. It doesn't matter. Like, in the next 50 years of your life, what's one day? Like, who cares? Like it all go great, great. If it doesn't, it doesn't matter. Like it does like there it rains. Okay, cool. Like, what is it like who cares?

SPEAKER_03 11:46

Probably I would not have liked that.

SPEAKER_00 11:48

Yeah, but in 20 years from now, would it really matter?

SPEAKER_03 11:50

It's hard to keep your hair looking nice when it rains.

SPEAKER_00 11:53

Well, that's true.

SPEAKER_03 11:54

So that it didn't rain. But I think um speaking of uh the value side of things, one thing I think that was important to both of us was to have the actual wedding ceremony be very uh traditional. Well, it I didn't care if it was traditional. I just wanted it to, which it turned out to be that way, but I wanted to make sure the real meaning of marriage from a Christian standpoint was really like brought out of respect because I've been to the last couple weddings, except for one massive Catholic wedding I was at, um the last couple weddings I've been to have been very they felt very short. It just didn't feel as meaningful to me as I would want them to be, and it didn't really seem to me to focus on what marriage actually is and the importance of it. And so we really wanted that to be a big piece of ours.

SPEAKER_00 12:43

And I I still because in the uh rehearsal the day before, like the amount of people in today's world that have never experienced a m like a grand organ. It was so fun. Lara Lara loves the grand organ and it's fun, it really is.

SPEAKER_03 12:58

If it's played well, and it was played well.

SPEAKER_00 13:01

And I remember the first time with the rehearsal, like most of my grooms have never heard that in their lives, and then all of a sudden you go, bam, and then it's everyone loud. Oh, they jump. And so I remember we're still we're standing up on wedding day, we're all looking at you, and you know it's about to org it's about to hit. Because what did you play? Oh, to join the hill. So all of a sudden that and I looked at the whole crowd, and everyone 85 to 90 percent did this. So cool.

SPEAKER_03 13:37

I can't wait to see the video of this.

SPEAKER_00 13:38

We're not ready for it.

SPEAKER_03 13:40

I love it. No one you if you've never experienced a great organ, like you can feel it. It's so cool.

SPEAKER_00 13:47

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 13:47

Oh, that's uh I and I that was cool for me because I grew up in a church that used a lot of tradition, traditional pieces like that, and having the organ, and that's not the kind of church we go to anymore. So to like kind of do that in the wedding, kind of like the last almost, I thought was pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00 14:03

100%.

SPEAKER_03 14:04

So that all went great. The reception. We took uh a trolley from the wedding to the reception. That was super fun.

SPEAKER_00 14:12

Yep, that was super fun. We uh we almost gave away our special moment because we stopped on Gillette Blue Bridge and they were like, hey, give her a couple twirls and stuff. And we do a couple of these these twirls.

SPEAKER_03 14:25

Like we knew what we were doing.

SPEAKER_00 14:26

Everyone was like, that was really good. Did you practice that?

SPEAKER_03 14:30

No, we're just talented.

SPEAKER_00 14:32

Because coming up, if if anyone knows me, I don't like to dance, or at least I freak out. I don't feel like I'm a good dancer.

SPEAKER_03 14:38

I don't There was a surprise.

SPEAKER_00 14:40

There was a surprise at the reception.

SPEAKER_03 14:42

Oh stay tuned.

SPEAKER_00 14:43

And um, but yeah, that went all great. We had our one snafu that ended up turning into the greatest win.

SPEAKER_03 14:50

Well, and I would say, okay, yes. But I was gonna mention the one other kind of snafu was the church was hot as well.

SPEAKER_00 14:59

It was hot as balls. So it was toasty. It was hot as balls. But we survived in the actual uh uh church, yeah. The church, but that's fine.

SPEAKER_03 15:08

But yes, yeah, the other the snafu.

SPEAKER_00 15:11

Yeah, so the photographer accidentally left her keys in the trolley, and then that threw off our timing to do photos, uh couple last photos at the reception on the Mines golf course. So then we had to pivot, make a couple changes, and we'll do the we'll do the po the photo, last couple photos at sunset instead of in between. And that ended up being the greatest windfall because like we ended up having the whole golf course to ourselves and doing some stuff on the on the different fairways that we could have never done.

SPEAKER_01 15:38

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 15:38

And like the lighting was so good. I'm so pumped to see those photos.

SPEAKER_01 15:41

It's gonna be great.

SPEAKER_00 15:42

Um, but yeah, so then that whole process, the food was incredible. Shout out to the mines and like the gypsum, their food is fantastic.

SPEAKER_03 15:49

And the setting was beautiful. Like I see pictures and it's so pretty.

SPEAKER_00 15:53

And then, yeah, I mean, uh the biggest thing there was like uh the first dance, Lara and I took lessons for a month and choreographed a uh a wedding dance where I wanted to like make it get very interesting, and so I um You wanted to show off his muscle. I did. So we learned that whole process um of doing the dance moves, and then I wanted to like make some big moves. So I I fli I grabbed Lara and I flip her over my uh over my shoulder and I do like the little old spin thing. Everyone lost their minds.

SPEAKER_03 16:36

It was so funny I cannot wait to see videos of that.

SPEAKER_00 16:40

Um, and then we did the greatest um Irish goodbye you could ask for. Uh shout out to Becca for helping that happen. We were both exhausted. I still was fighting that cold and everything, and it hit we hit like 10:30. Oh, that was the thing. We did a long drive competition at the end of the night.

SPEAKER_03 16:56

How could you forget? You were so excited.

SPEAKER_00 16:58

Oh, so pumped. We did a glow in the dark long drive competition at the end of the night, right on the right on the fourth hole there. And uh I duck hooked the first three drives and everyone's like, oh no. And then finally, it was like a last shot of the night. I hit an absolute bomb. It was beautiful. Probably 300 yards, a little over 300 yards, um, down the middle, and it was just like, oh, this is the last chance, and I just hit it. I finally hit a good one, and uh it was fantastic.

SPEAKER_03 17:27

Did it all did that not turn out all how you wanted it to?

SPEAKER_00 17:30

It all turned out great. It really did. Um anything unexpected or good or chaotic happened. I mean, we kind of walked through it all. I was terrified the wedding dance wasn't gonna work out like just remembering to do it and doing it right, everything we can do.

SPEAKER_03 17:43

We nailed that thing. We didn't screw up one piece.

SPEAKER_00 17:46

We nailed it.

SPEAKER_03 17:47

It was great. Um so uh encouragement to anyone out there if you're just like I'm not very good at something, I don't know, just do it.

SPEAKER_00 17:55

It's super fun. It's called practice, like just with anything else. You don't think, you know, even if we screw up, everyone sucks at everything at the big when they first do something.

SPEAKER_03 18:02

Even if we were even if we screwed something up, nobody would have cared. Oh it was super super fun. I never felt like I was that excited for my wedding. Like I was never one of these girls that I dreamed of my wedding when I was 10. Um, and I always thought, I probably won't have like a traditional wedding, it's not that big of a deal. And guess what? I had that traditional wedding. And let me say I had such a good time.

SPEAKER_00 18:26

Me too.

SPEAKER_03 18:26

Like those two days were so fun. And I would definitely do it all that way again.

SPEAKER_00 18:33

Well, we had a great team around us. We did. Like we had um, and like your cousin um Bailey Bailey helped out incredibly.

SPEAKER_03 18:41

Thank you, Bailey.

SPEAKER_00 18:42

Bailey was awesome. Um our uh our so like so like for example, and like um trying to be real. Like I'm holding to a budget and this whole process, and all of a sudden we came in and our my anticipation was a certain amount of money, and then we start getting budgets back for things, and then the flower budget. We saw what what our my original like flower budget was and what that would get us. And we went in more. And I was like, Yeah, that's not that that won't be.

SPEAKER_03 19:12

I'm sorry, I like real flowers and I think they're very pretty, and I wanted them.

SPEAKER_00 19:16

100%. And then so I was like, all right, well, our but our our flower budget basically tripled. Um, and so which is fine. But then I'm sitting there myself going, okay, cool, something's gotta go because I'm holding to this freaking budget. I'm not living in scarcity, but I'm like, we we're spending a decent amount of money, but I'm not just gonna have this crazy costly wedding for no reason.

SPEAKER_03 19:37

Just keep adding the cost more.

SPEAKER_00 19:39

And um, and then it turns into a six-figure wedding, and you're like, What why? Um, but then so then I cut the alcohol budget.

SPEAKER_03 19:46

We were not gonna pay for anyone's alcohol.

SPEAKER_00 19:48

We're gonna have alcohol there, but in the cash bar.

SPEAKER_03 19:51

And then right at the end, your dad was like, ah, I'll I'll pay extra for the for the well the uh the food budget turned out less than he thought it was gonna be, and so he he did it.

SPEAKER_00 20:02

Yeah, and so we we had the alcohol, we had the bar and stuff, and it all kind of came to be. Um, but yeah, and so it was it was super fun to get that back. But I I did find that funny because I'm like, all right, well, if that's going up, we gotta we gotta stick to the plan.

SPEAKER_03 20:16

We did it. And we figured out it turned out. So, what were your takeaways?

SPEAKER_00 20:21

Um, I think that one of the biggest takeaways from a wedding perspective for us was this we we both are very type A, like plan, do, get stuff done. So the week before the wedding, like I was not anxious at all. To be honest, for the people that will find this out shortly, uh, just because I we finished a whole new marketing campaign on Friday of the wedding. We were at work. We were like, so Josh was coming in for the wedding, and so I had him bring in all of his professional videography audio equipment. And so the Friday morning of our wedding, we're recording patient interviews, their kind of uh story behind the practice, we're doing all this other stuff while we're getting ready for a wedding. And I I think it all went because like number one, we planned for it, like we kind of anticipated it, we got it all kind of ahead of time. Um, and then I think both of us have this at least for me, this mantra what's like perfection's a myth. And like for me, the one day is not like people obsess over like hitting a weight loss goal. Like I've done like when when you've done something that's really big and you've hit it, then you realize like it's not that special. Okay, cool. You did the bodybuilding show.

SPEAKER_03 21:45

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00 21:46

And you get past it, and then I passed it, and then you like yeah, you you just you start to realize that the quality of your life is not in these big moments. The quality of your life is in the daily pattern of emotional state, how you treat your day. How do you like how do you treat your emotional self? How do you treat the people around you? What's your new like all this stuff one day is menial in 90 years, 80 years of life. It's just, it's like I just didn't I I would I w I wanted it to be a certain way, but simultaneously I'm like It's not that big of a deal. It's not that big of a deal.

SPEAKER_03 22:21

But it turned out great in the end.

SPEAKER_00 22:23

It turned out great. Groomsman all did an incredible job. Um, everyone there was awesome.

SPEAKER_03 22:33

Thank my sister for taking care of my practice while I was out for the honeymoon for two weeks, which stay tuned. We're gonna talk more about that soon.

SPEAKER_00 22:40

Yep. So we'll do the honeymoon uh episode next because that gets there's a lot. A lot we did a lot in two weeks. It was so great. Um we were actually about to make this one episode and then it got too long. We were just like, yeah, we're just gonna do this in two episodes because but yeah. Um so yeah, so kind of final thoughts on the wedding and the whole process of it.

SPEAKER_03 23:01

I would say uh so many people told me, a lot of my patients actually, they were very supportive. Thank you to all my patients. Um they so many people told me it's gonna go so fast. Make sure you absorb it all. And so the whole day I was like, I'm absorbing, I'm absorbing, I'm absorbing it. And I did not think it flew by. I thought it was a beautiful pace and it was super, super fun. And I'm very thankful to have that in our past and have such great memories.

SPEAKER_00 23:28
