In this episode, Matt, Steve, and Jessica will talk all about the week before Matt and Jessica got married. Jessica will talk about how empowering her bachelorette party was because of all the awesome things she got to experience like learning how to pole dance and lap dance. Matt on the other hand doesn’t remember much of his bachelor party except that they went long-boarding, because he had to go to Ann’s house after she called him and asked him to go pick up their kids because her husband had physically abused her.

He considered calling the police on the man but the man’s mum was present at the scene and she requested him not to because it would destroy his future. Matt had to take his kids away from that scenario, and he took them to stay with Jessica, which was the first time she had all three kids with her. That experience gave their marriage a little bit of a weird start because it affected Matt so much.

On the day of the wedding, Jessica recalls that Matt’s daughter Sarah came up to their house to get ready with all the girls, and she all of a sudden got very emotional because there was an issue with her hair. But Jessica feels Sarah’s reaction to her hair issue was more about the fact that she couldn’t process that her dad was marrying someone else. Fortunately, Jessica’s aunt Cassie calmed Sarah down and got her excited. They all later went to the little chapel where they got married in the presence of a few members of their extended families and friends. Stay tuned to hear more of the heartwarming story about how the day went down.
