It's the day we've been waiting for... our wedding invitations have finally arrived and we unbox them LIVE on the Podcast!

Not starting off the year on the right foot after a MAJOR faux pas over the weekend. Also, how did something from our friend John's holiday party inspire our wedding?!

We're back from our holiday break with a little surprise... We're now officially Married! Gage's Mom Jody joins us for this very special episode as we also enter the year of our wedding! The clock is TICKING now!!

Merry Chrysler everyone! Today we're talking with the 3rd member of Gage's "Best Bitches" crew, Chandler Rasnake for some good dirty details about Gage and of course a few can't miss gems!

We're freshly back from our Disney cruise experience and even though Mickey wore us out, we still had time for some wedding planning activities this week, that will get us one step closer to having everything ready to go for our big day, as we approach 8 months!

As busy as we usually are, and stay, this is the first time we've experienced an extended period of time where our busy-ness is affecting our wedding planning-- but we're trying to stay on track as much as possible. Also, there's Tattoo drama. we're prepping for Disney and you're invited! Plus, even more drama during our newlywed game!

As the saying goes "Time flies when you're having fun" and we've been having a blast planning our nuptials for officially over a year now, and now one of our fellow members of our best bitches is now engaged and we discuss how we were involved with the proposal during our last trip to Houston. AND the first member of Al's side of the party, his co-best man, Grant Bridges joins us to be interviewed...

Coming in HOT, no seriously, why is it still 80 degrees in November!!-- from Houston with our latest VERY EXCITING development, which we realized was our first official vendor contract signed, sealed and delivered. Plus, we discuss our wild time in a hotel that is in DESPERATE need of repair in Houston's Greenway Plaza area!

We've got updates for ya this week and we'll tell you all about our wild weekend with Jelly Roll, a fancy night out at Dallas' annual LGBTQ+ fundraiser, Black Tie Dinner, and discuss our upcoming quick trip to Houston, yes we're going again but there's cake involved!

An idea we've had since the beginning of planning our wedding is to have an official monogram or logo that incorporates the two of us, our personalities but is still on theme... How in the heck are we gonna accomplish that?! Luckily, Gage's "bestest b**ch" Madison Dever is on the case!

Live from Houston, we're have updates on a TON of stuff we were able to get done during our weekend trip (thanks to Gage!) And of course, out of no where our first BIG"bump" in the road happened while we were here too. We've got the good, bad and UGLY all in 1 episode!

Al tries to get Angela from Big Brother's help surprising Gage with the details of his upcoming birthday present; Also, Al & Gage talk about their upcoming trip to Houston to meet with potential vendors.

We're back from our "coming out" break and this week we are so excited to introduce you to another one of Gage's Best Bitches... In fact, she's the BEST-EST Bitch of all, the one and only Madison Dever, who's not only part of Gage's Wedding Party, but a HUGE part of helping us plan our big day!

In honor of National Coming Out Day, Gage & Al share their own unique coming out stories, which eventually led them to find each other. We hope this serves as a reminder to all, regardless of their sexual orientation, that everyone deserves the right to live your life genuinely, completely and honestly and be their true authentic self. We'll be back to the podcast next week!

After a chaotic weekend, Al & Gage realize that THEY might be the problem and maybe should have hired a wedding planner after all... But it's too late to turn back now! So join them as they discuss a few parts of the wedding planning LIVE on the pod, and hear a little bit of drama that unfolds in the process!

After a week that included a LOT of bad news, including a run in with Dallas PD Narcotics Detectives, and being without water for 24 hours after a pipe burst, Al & Gage did have some light at the end of their tunnel when it came to some wedding vendors. A HUGE Thanks to Renee at Total Events DFW for your amazing recommendations!

It's our time to SHINE down the runway... it's time to sashay shantay, cause gurl WE BETTA WERK!! Gage and Al discuss their fashion and design for the wedding. Also, Gage is SICK (and not in a good way), an argument about the ceremony breaks out midway through, and will brain fog be the excuse to ruin this week's "newlywed game?!"

Al & Gage talk about their exhausting personal, and professional schedule-- all while trying to plan this wedding. Plus, we introduce you to the first of our "best bitches" aka our wedding party, Gage's sister, Sierra joins us for some Q+A with Al, and is also the special guest host for the "Newlywed Game!"

We've got our date (finally), our amazing venue, we've picked our "Best Bitches" but now we have to figure out who we're inviting... but more importantly who we're NOT inviting-- and who we're inviting if the people we originally invite, can't come! You'd think it would be more of an Al problem than a Gage one, but we've both run into our fair share of unique situations when it comes to the invite...

Straight couples called it their "wedding party" but we're calling them our "Best Bitches!" We'll talk about the differences and similarities of this very important aspect of planning an LGBTQ+ wedding, as well as introduce all of the amazing people who we've called upon to help us be a part of our special day. Also, would you pay to attend a friend or family member's wedding? And does Gage have A...

GET THE POPCORN READY because we spill all the tea on the insane amount of drama surrounding picking a date for the wedding! Also, Gage might be banned from TikTok and Al suggests an official wedding hashtag based on something Gage said in the previous episode.

Location! Location! Location! Before we can tell you about all the drama that went down just trying to pick a date for our wedding, we've got to talk about the location we're going to host the wedding in and some of the early lessons we learned touring 3 venues during one of Texas' now famous "winterpocolypse" that we seem to have every freakin' year now!

Al talks about when he first made the decision to pop the question, how he involved all of Gage's closest friends and family members, and how one of their friends almost ruined the surprise engagement just 48 hours before it was supposed to happen! Plus, Al & Gage end this episode with the first round of their version of "The Newlywed Game" to see how much they really know about each other!
