H: That's right everyone, the wedding video is finally here
H: And I know you're probably really eager to see the wedding, see all the videos we took
H: Some photos, but first I want to show you something
H: So if you don't mind, let's go back to March 2016
H: I was a freshman in college, and Shane had just graduated
H: I saw a video about him on Youtube, sent him an email to introduce myself
H: And we began Facetiming the next day
H: We exchanged way too many selfies, it was basically love at first sight
H: And within weeks we were sending videos like this to each other
H: I love you
H: Okay, we're gross, I know
H: Luckily soon we got to be together in person
H: And over the course of the next two years I would fly to Pennsylvania a lot
H: I did this thing where I took a selfie in the bathroom mirror
H: At the Minneapolis airport every time I flew to Pennsylvania
H: Even when there were other people in the bathroom, apparently
H: And every single one of our visits was magical
[soft piano music]
H: In March 2018, two years after we met, we packed up Shane's car
H: And he moved across the country to Minnesota
H: Here's our things S: All my things
H: Well, most of these are mine over here
H: TV
H: Anything to say? S: I don't know if I'm gonna fit in that
H: [laughs]
H: We got our first apartment together and lived there for a year and a half
S: This one you might have to give me a little thump
H: Alright, you're gonna have to open that door
S: It looks like it's kind of open H: It is open, I literally mean shove it open
S: Alright, I can fit in the door, that's a good start
H: [laughs]
[upbeat instrumental music]
H: Shane proposed on the day I graduated and we got married in a private backyard ceremony
H: A year later because of the pandemic
H: Our life together has been a fairytale from the beginning
H: And we've waited so long to have our fairytale wedding
H: So now, without further ado, here we go
S: We're here, at our wedding venue, Andrew and I are in our...
S: Our what is it, our groom suite? A: Uh, yes
S: And we are watching soccer
S: Or are you gonna show off this way? A: Well, it's a commercial now
A: [laughs] I don't know how to do this, I'm not a professional Youtuber
A: Now I can't see the screen S: Oh, god
A: Okay, so little update on the weather S: [laughs]
A: There are baseball sized hail S: Hails
A: Hails, multiple hails, two tornadoes and a thunderstorm with 70mph winds coming
S: Yep A: At about 3 o clock
S: Like multiple storms like that A: So there's that
S: Yep, they're coming right when we're supposed to do photos, so it's gonna be interesting
A: Is there anything else? S: No, that's good
A: And there's Jake, okay
[piano music]
M: Hello H: Do you want some water?
H: A video of you having water? Oh my god, she's so cute
[upbeat instrumental music]
M: Hi Chlo Chlo, your mommy's getting married!
H: So boring, though M: She's getting married!
[music]
H: While I was busy getting ready upstairs, let's check in and see what Shane was doing downstairs
H: Okay, how about right before that? That's better
[music]
H: Oh, geez
H: That suit was pretty hard to get on, let's move on
H: Okay, time for the first look with my dad
G: And where am I looking, that way? L: You're gonna look straight ahead, not yet
M: Not yet, not yet L: And...
G: [laughs] Oh my lord L: Look at you, aww
G: Oh man, look at you H: You like it?
G: Yeah, dress, eyes, couldn't be better All: Awww
H: Because Shane and I got married last year, we didn't do a ceremony again this year
H: Instead, our special moment was our first look
H: And I had my dad walk me in for it because he never got to walk me down the aisle
[piano music]
S: Alright, ready? H: Yep
G: That's it, that's the spot
S: [laughs] Wow
G: I think that's what I said
H: You look so good S: Oh my god
H: You got your bowtie all set S: Aww, you look amazing
H: Thank you S: George, so do you
All: [laugh] G: I look okay
S: Can you breathe, is it like..? H: It's actually better
H: Yeah, I think it loosened out because I've been wearing it
S: Your hair and makeup... [laughs]
H: See the back? S: Yeah
H: I know S: Wow
[piano music]
H: [laughs]
[piano music]
M: So, Shane over there, obviously
M: And then Hannah over here, getting their solo shots done
M: They both look amazing
P: Back up where you had it earlier
H: This is literally what I think of as a bouquet
M: That's Hannah's idea of a wedding pose [laughs]
P: And whip it, and whip it M: Oh yeah [laughs]
P: More fiercely whipping it, and big circle go
H: Oh my god [laughs] All: Oh wow, oh my goodness
M: Yes! That was so cool! You fully did it
[piano music]
H: After Shane and I had our photos taken together and then our individual photos taken
H: We did photos with my maid of honor and his best man
H: I think Meredith and I took some really classy photos
H: While Shane and Andrew were a little bit more...
H: Inventive
H: Before we knew it our guests had arrived and it was time for cocktail hour
H: Next it was time for dinner and we walked into the ballroom
H: To the theme song of The Office, played on an acoustic guitar
[cheering and clapping]
H: And yes, you might have noticed that we are compiling this video with clips
H: That people took on their phones throughout the night
H: But anyway, dinner was amazing, we heard a beautiful welcome toast from Shane's cousin Sarah
H: And we got to hear speeches from our best man and maid of honor
H: And they were incredible
M: I remember when Hannah came to school after her very first visit with Shane
M: And she was the actual smitten kitten, and she stayed that way every since
M: To this day every time Hannah sees Shane, her eyes light up
M: And she literally just glows
M: I've spent a lot of time with Hannah over the years
M: And I can tell you that the only other thing in the world
M: That makes her eyes light up like that
M: Is a hot fudge sundae from McDonalds
[laughter]
H: After dinner we moved into the carriage house for dessert and music
H: It started off with a pretty big bang because of a guest appearance by Rainn Wilson
R: Apparently I am the fella who brought the two of you together
H: If you want to see the full video that Rainn Wilson sent us
H: We'll put the link in the description box below
H: After that, it was just time to hang out
H: My personal favorite was probably the guess who game
H: With the faces of The Office characters on it, plus me and Shane
H: We also finished off the night with some pretty delicious s'mores
[music]
H: So there you go, that was our wedding
H: And as much as we were looking forward to it, and as amazing as it was
H: We're pretty much the same people that we were five years ago
H: Now my video S: Alright, down by my foot
S: Lean it on my foot, other side foot, sideways, no, other way
S: And tip it back, yeah, there you go, lower
H: No, I can't see your head
H: Your face is way up there, it's not gonna work like that [laughs]
H: Okay, I'll just hold it like this
H: [laughs]
Both: [laughing]
