Speaker 1 (00:00):
Kiki, is that's here that you I need? You have
to sort of explain this to me. But you wrote
the wedding venue two er start this weekend, so I
know what that means. But I'm putting my bridal team
on a point system. Lol. It's strict around here, Yes
it is. What does that mean? What does that mean?
It's a point system?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (00:19):
So all right, my friends, all right that are going
to be helping me with my wedding, and my sister
and she's a part of this team as well. I
figured the best way to handle this situation that we're
about to walk into is just come out from the
gate with a point system. So everybody will start with
five points. Every meeting you miss, every venue tour that

(00:42):
you can't come to, everything that you drop the ball on,
you hook it a point. Once you lose your five points,
you are on a performance improvement plan. Okay, and then
and then if you don't do the steps of that,
you are out of the Bridal team.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
You do Reliaze, these people don't work for you, hold on,
they don't.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
No, no, no, no no no.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
These are your friends, Yes, these are your friends that
you're inviting into the circle.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
Your bridal team. Yes, hire hire a wedding planner.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Then no, no, no, no, no, we don't have the
budget for that. We have a dedicated bridal team.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
So you have you've bestowed the honor of them doing
all the work for you.

Speaker 5 (01:24):
Well, no, they're gonna help me.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
They're gonna be there to support me.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
But then you're gonna tell them whether they're not doing enough,
and you're gonna dock points.

Speaker 4 (01:30):
You're gonna give them to merits.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yes, yes, that is how you You know, everybody gets
a fair equal points, you know, five points to start
and then at the end if you would hope that
you have all five of your points.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
So who is on this team? Your sister, yes, so far,
and then who else?

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Jason, Kaylin, Colleen? Then for it? Ryan Ryan. Ryan is
the chief of staff.

Speaker 5 (01:52):
Oh yeah, I'm sure you all will get.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Your get your assignments from Ryan.

Speaker 4 (01:56):
We all need a Ryan. I don't have a Ryan.

Speaker 5 (01:58):
Yeah, okay, Ryan, I'm fine with this.

Speaker 6 (02:02):
Okay, even though you did not ask, I am completely
fine with this. However, is there an incentive like if
I do really well, is do I get something like
a little treat or something?

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (02:12):
You get points back?

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Yeah, like, if you lose the point, then can you go,
you know, do a little extra and then get yourself
right back in.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Yeah, that comes with a performance improvement plan. So I
don't want to have to I don't want to have
to put you on a PIP. But if you end
up on a PIP, you can work your way out.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Of So how many people are attending the tour this
weekend to the venue?

Speaker 3 (02:28):
So the stre this weekend is just requiet for Helena
and Ryan she was half and then no, no, no,
I haven't even announced my bridal party. Now I don't
have a date, so people don't know if they're in
it or out yet.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
But yeah, listen, I've worked on many for free.

Speaker 6 (02:46):
So honestly, if she does have incentives to do well,
then maybe I wouldn't.

Speaker 5 (02:51):
Mind this because I've done it for free.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
See, it's almostly.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
It's not like this obviously on the on the male
side of the wedding planning, because most men are doing
much of anything. So again I will say this much,
it's because it really doesn't I'm not gonna say it
doesn't matter what the guy thinks. But like my friends
who my friends who have gotten married, it's sort of
like I'm fine with whatever you want. Like it's not
that they don't want to be involved, it's just that
they're gonna get you know, they'll go to the cake

(03:17):
tasting thing and it'say, I like this one up, but
we're doing this one and you know it's just like okay,
well then why am I here?

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Right?

Speaker 1 (03:22):
You know, so it's like we're doing this your way
and I'm fine with that. But then don't be mad
when I'm not jumping up and down to do whatever.
But I'm we don't have any duties, like I haven't
had to do any work.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
Oh lovey you see wow.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
But I think if I had.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
To do work, I'd probably be like I'm good, Like
I'm actually just gonna show up like I don't need
I don't need to do that. I don't need to
be subjected to this, like I'll just I'll just come
to the wedding like I.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Want to support your friend, help your friend, come on, man.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
But it sounds like it sounds like I work for
you for the next two years and I don't really
feel like it.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
Yes, that's part of being a bridal team. People love
to want to be in a wedding, but instead you
have actually done it. You don't know the amount of
work that comes comes with it. You don't know how
much money you are required to spend to be a
bridesmaid or a groomsman. It is expensive and it is
a commitment. So I am in the beginning going to
give everybody an option.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
You know, now, I've never really heard of bridal party
having to go on venue tours.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
I've never heard that.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
No, you don't have to, but you should.

Speaker 4 (04:21):
You get a point off if you don't.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Right, extra part.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
Someone texted the bridal party should only be a part
of dress shopping, hair makeup and the bachelorette.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Venues should only be a kiki in big tim Oh please.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
No, I agree with that. That's why I'm only taking
my chief of staff and my sister.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah, you don't want like too many opinions too, right,
that's gonna get tricky too, because, like.

Speaker 5 (04:44):
You know, so we're going to be silenced.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
I don't know what.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Texasn't make a whole lot of sense. Something I want.
I think it's I once got. I think it's what
this is meant to say. Kicked out of my best
friend's wedding because two years in advance, she started a
monthly meeting with all of her bride I ended up
missing the first one because I had the flu, and
I missed the second because he landed on my husband's
birthday and I chose to go to dinner with him
instead of meeting for her wedding. So she told me

(05:12):
that she should be more important than my husband and
kicked me out of her wedding.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
She did you a favor.

Speaker 5 (05:18):
I love bred so much.

Speaker 6 (05:19):
My best friend and I who I will not name,
but you guys all know, got kicked out of a
maid of honor duties multiple times for one wedding. And
one of the times is because she wore two short
of shorts around.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
The groom whoa keep all shorts and they were down
to her knees. But like, you'll get kicks out of
the wedding for some while.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, brides get really crazy.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Yeah I knew gave Really your.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Emotion is hahi?

Speaker 5 (05:40):
You know you get nuts?

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, someone's calling you a bride zilla already. Everyone can
make its every appointment. Only my husband came to venues
with me. Don't need other opinions on where we got
married that's true. Now are you expecting these people to
contribute financially as well to.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Their portion of what they need to cover?

Speaker 4 (05:57):
Excuse me?

Speaker 2 (05:58):
You have a portion?

Speaker 1 (06:00):
What is what is my portion of what I need
to cover for your wedding?

Speaker 3 (06:04):
You are part of the entertainment committee, okay, Yeah, so
when we get that all finalized, you will get.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
Your your invoice suities.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, in your assignment.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Yes, Salina is part of marketing.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Girl. I don't know.

Speaker 5 (06:21):
You want to rethink that one. No, I mean look
at her go party bus.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
She's on a TV tour right now. So yeah, on
a press tour. So we have to get you a
press tour for your wedding.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
I got you, girl.

Speaker 3 (06:32):
I told me at the end of this, it's just
gonna be me and Big Tim at my wedding.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Yes, that's what I'm saying. That's what I mean. You
know what I don't. I don't want to be on
the committee. I just want to show up and have
a little chocolate fund and get the.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Hell out of there.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Abuse.

Speaker 5 (06:46):
I'll be there.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
Yeah, yeah, come in there, get my little my little
chicken breast. Yeah, they talk better than they These are
the radio blogs on The Fresh Show.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
You gotta stick around. I was thinking about going, but
I think I'll stick around. I think it's a good idea.
I like writing in our diaries, except we say I'm aloud.
We call them blogs, Calin.

Speaker 5 (07:06):
Go, thank you, dear blog.

Speaker 6 (07:08):
So I feel like I'm typically someone who can kind
of usually take myself outside of my own perspective and
see other people's perspective. But there is like one thing
that I really just can't comprehend that people don't feel
the same about me.

Speaker 5 (07:23):
And if you have.

Speaker 6 (07:24):
Allergies or like a traumatic story, please don't at me.

Speaker 5 (07:27):
That's not what this is about.

Speaker 6 (07:28):
But and people have called us out, specifically Fred, like
the way in which we love animals is a little
bit more probably than others, specifically dogs, like I will
I'll put my face up to like a barn animal's
face too.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
Yeah, Like I'm a Sickoh, I get it.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
Because I don't think any of them are going.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
To hurt me, right, Why would they?

Speaker 4 (07:47):
They wouldn't because.

Speaker 5 (07:48):
They feel us exactly, they know us.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
As you know, Caln, I believe that I can reason
with the wild animal. And this is not a joke,
This is not a bit, This is not a gimmick.
Like I firmly believe that in the wild, if I
came across a wild animal, that we wouldn't have an issue.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
I feel the same.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
I genuinely believe that if I were walking down some
trail and a jaguar came out or something, that I
could reason with it and be like, yo, I'm good,
Like I'm totally good, showing pictures on my phone to
be you know, animals I've rescued and stuff, and then
boom in the jaguar. Before long, the jaguar and I
are hunting together for prey, petting each other and yeah,
I'll just you know.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
Wants to send us into the world.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
You would like to lock me in this aquarium I
mentioned before with a jaguar, I just like saying jaguar.

Speaker 4 (08:32):
By the way, it's not it feels like you do.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Yeah, anyway, you can continue anyway.

Speaker 6 (08:36):
So I've always loved animals, and we love dogs specifically.
And while I have had dogs in the past, like
family dogs, I you know, have sense taken over my
boyfriend's dog because we are just we are we're road dogs,
like we're busties whatever, and so I have it's the
first time of me like having a dog as an
adult and she's small, she's like thirty eight pounds, and

(08:57):
just just the experience of seeing people who are like
really not dog people has been very shocking for me.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
And like even in my building, like if people.

Speaker 6 (09:07):
Are weird about like riding the elevator with her, like
I very much judge them, like I'm like, you should
live in like a special like non dog building because this.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
Is this is weird energy. Another thing that I've.

Speaker 6 (09:18):
Noticed is like I always ask if I can bring
her with, because if she can come with, she's coming with.
And this is specific to people's homes as well.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
And I'm starting to get like weird reactions from people.

Speaker 6 (09:31):
Is it rude to ask even like you can tell
me no and I'm cool about it.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
Is it rude to ask if I could bring a
dog to your house?

Speaker 4 (09:38):
Why are you looking at me? Who is looking at me?

Speaker 3 (09:42):
As I am a dog owner, I'm a dog mom.
This is Lexus world, in my opinion. So when we
get on the elevator, this is his elevator. Right now,
we're the guest. So I have the same problem as you.
My sister allowed, for example, not hate stocks, but she
is not a dog person, like she does not play
around with dogs, she doesn't want to be around dogs.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
And I always.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
Say, like, you're weird, Like I'm like her, this is
your nephew, right, like this is your family. So it's
it's the same thing here. I don't think it's a problem.
I get dogs like I look at children. That's my baby.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Well to some MAKEX sense.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
I use that by the way, that one right there
makes people so angry for some reason. All the people
think dogs are like cutes And I know that's some
what you mean literally, but yeah, right, that's that's what
I mean when I say that. But I've got I've gotten.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
It before too.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Well you think having a dog's are coven No, that's
not what I said, But I treat we've always treated
animals in our family like they're the same as family,
and they're not, of course, Like I get it. If
it's a person eating or a dog eating, well, I mean,
I hope you know what's ever in a situation, I
have to choose between dogs and animals. But whatever the
case between humans and animals, but whatever the case may be,

(10:46):
they get the same love and attention that we would
give to any other member of the family. That being said,
I don't think people are going to tell you no
as often as they would like to.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
And I know that you think that you.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Take no well, but I think that if you were
to say can I bring my daughter my best friend
to your house with me, and they and they say uh,
I think it probably puts some people in a spot
because maybe they don't want that, but they're not. Maybe
they're there they don't want hair in their house, or
they have allergies where they just don't want it, or

(11:21):
they don't know the dog, or they or they don't
know how your dog's didn't get along with their dog
or whatever. I don't know that I think people would
necessarily tell you no as often as you think they would.

Speaker 5 (11:30):
Well, I've gotten it.

Speaker 6 (11:30):
Three times and I've taken it well, I secretly judge
for sure.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
Well, that's what I mean, though it's not people are
afraid of that.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
Well, you know, they can be afraid, but ask for
what you need. But I don't know.

Speaker 6 (11:40):
And one of my friends, you know, she has let
me bring her every other time, and then finally she said, well,
my husband is really weird about it and doesn't want
her to come over. Anymore. And I said, okay, that's fine,
and she said, but when we get her, I go.
But I thought you guys were gonna get it dug.
And she's like, well, when it's ours, it's fine. So
I don't know, it's just been an interesting thing, and yeah,
you're right, maybe I put people on the spot.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
But because like we've had you know, we have dogs
in Arizona. My mom has dogs, two dogs, two cats.
And people will be like, well, you have a big
yet backyard and you have dogs, So I'm gonna bring
so and so dog over to whatever.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
And we've done that before.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
But the problem is so and so dog is maybe
not that well behaved, or so and so dog maybe
isn't nice to one of our dogs, or so and
so dog peace in the house.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
And so there's just so many variables.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Okay, And so I think my mom, who loves animals
and volunteers with animals and all the things, I think
she's now inclined to say no, I don't want that,
because it's just there's just so many variables. And I
don't really think as many people as you think are
going to be honest with you about it, because I
just don't because you can say that's cool. But if

(12:42):
I'm like, hey, I want to bring so and so
over and it's like no, it's deflating.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
It is deflating.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
And you've admitted that you would judge the person saying
I probably would too, So rather than do that, I
probably wouldn't just I just wouldn't say. I wouldn't ask hey.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
Elaine, Hey, what's up? Hi Elayne? What do you think
about this? Do you think? Do you think you have
a dog?

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Do you think that if you want to take the
dog everywhere and you call ahead and say can I
bring the dog? Is that fair to the people that
you're asking?

Speaker 5 (13:07):
Ale?

Speaker 4 (13:08):
Yeah, No, I.

Speaker 5 (13:12):
Don't think she's the a hole.

Speaker 7 (13:13):
But I have a German Shepherd, and my German Shepherd
is like my child and I love to bring her
everywhere that I can. But if someone called me and
was like, Heylene, is it cool if I bring my
dog over to play with your dog?

Speaker 1 (13:27):
I'd be like, I think it just puts people on
a spot that you don't necessarily need to put them in.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
Okay, because it's.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
Like her toys.

Speaker 7 (13:39):
She doesn't want anybody to play with her toys, so
I have to like pick.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
Them all up and put them all away, and then
it's like.

Speaker 7 (13:46):
Get along, yeah, okay, oh no, my dog loves other dogs,
loves other dogs, but not to the extent of like, hey,
we're going to be Bessie's but I put the dog,
but she wants them to come over, and then she's
going to try, like, you know, be like oh wait, no,
don't do that or don't do that well.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
And also dogs in a dog park are different than
dogs in their own home sometimes. Yeah, And I don't
even know if it's about. And thank you Elaine, by
the way, I appreciate you calling. Have a good day.
I'm not even sure if it's about. Certainly, if they
have dogs, then that's important, I get yeah, But then
if they don't have dogs, it's kind of like I
don't know, Like I don't think a person. I don't

(14:24):
think a bad person is a bad person if they
don't want another dog in their house.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
Yeah, I agree with that.

Speaker 5 (14:29):
Interesting, Yeah, I don't know if I do.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
You're not a bed. Yeah, you're not a bed.

Speaker 6 (14:34):
Also, I know my dog, like I would love Willy
to come over now, Benzo the tank is I'm not
bringing him out?

Speaker 5 (14:39):
Which yes, which if if the.

Speaker 6 (14:41):
Issue is there's another dog I have the utmost respect.
I just would love if you guys would go, Can
I bring Benzo? Can I bring Lucks? Can I bring
them over? That would be the best day of my life.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
But I love it, I get it.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
Yeah, I just tend not to.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
I don't know, I tend not to ask questions like
that because maybe that's maybe that's wrong on me, But
it's just like that way, I'm not putting anybody in
the spot where they have to say something that is
within their comfort level and their right, but then also
would cause maybe you to think differently about.

Speaker 5 (15:08):
Me, right, And I love dogs, O love you guys.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
See, this is what I mean. There is judgment.
