It's our FIRST official episode & with less than 70 days until her wedding, Nina is in execution mode trying to finalize the fine details of her destination ceremony, but stress and other people's expectations are working her last nerve.
Lex tries to sell Sasha & Nina on Bridal Expos. Hard pass. And Sasha navigates her anxiety and familial guilt while trying to plan the non-traditional Redwood wedding of her dreams. Her advice? Unsubscribe from all the wedding planning e-mails. This checklist madness must stop, Zola!
Later in the show, Sasha & Nina recount how they met during their boy-crazy teen years (aka the OG Hot Girl Summer), and how a water balloon fight turned into a decades-long friendship. Nina also shares her Dominic Toretto-esque approach to cultivating life-long friendships. HINT: It's all about family!
