"90 day fiancé"...


whew!

this is a disaster.

i’m ready to go home.

so, how have things
been with syngin?

it’s been up and down.
a couple of weeks ago,

we had a reading.

she was like, "is this like
a soulmate relationship?"

and syngin was like,
"yeah."

i’m like, "i’ve never thought
of you as a soulmate."

i was just wondering
if you have any prenups.

no prenup.

it doesn’t make sense.
it’s stupid.

so, jasmin,
what are your plans

after the wedding
work-wise?

i can do shows and media
every now and then,

but i don’t want
to go 9:00 to 5:00.

i just want to focus
on my inner peace,

and he’s fine
with that.

i mean, if they’re
throwing around words like

"classified," there’s
probably something

pretty serious
out there.

the boys were pretty upset
when mursel left,

so i’m going to let them
know what’s going on.

i’ve got something important
to tell you.

mursel’s coming.

why don’t i write
you a check

and buy you a plane ticket
back to the dominican republic?

i didn’t bring you here,
but i can send you there.

anna: it’s been
an intense 90 days.

we had to overcome
a lot of obstacles.

and today’s the big day.

mursel and i
are getting married.

all right, let’s go, guys.

but first, we had to pick him up
from the airport.

ding, ding, ding.

gino and leo
are coming with me.

my oldest son, joey, isn’t going
to go to the wedding,

so he’s with my mom.

but joey could still change his
mind and come to the wedding.

i’m hoping he will.

are you guys
ready for this?

how close
are we from it?

like a 30-minute drive.

we’re on day 90
of the 90 days,

and when mursel
lands in omaha,

we’ll only have six hours
left on this visa.

i’m praying
that nothing happens

because there’s no room
for error today.

okay, i’m making a phone call.
you guys got to be quiet.

shh! shh! shh!

shh! shh! shh! shh!

hi, carol. this is anna.

i was just calling
to confirm everything.

i think about 8:00
is when we’ll have the ceremony.

is that okay with you?

i’m sorry.

he’s just getting in,
and then we’ll have to

get dressed and all that, so...

okay.
okay. i really appreciate it.

thank you so much.

oh, my god,
we got so much to do.

the clock’s ticking.

a flight could be delayed,
he could be held up in customs.

if anything goes wrong,
we’re in danger of missing

the visa deadline and mursel
will have to go back to turkey.

i’m going to freak out if he’s
not on the freakin’ plane.

that would be
a huge disappointment.

okay.

leo, wait for us, dude.

we got to look for chicago.
oh, chicago midway?

yeah, it’s right there.
it says it arrived.



all right, okay,
we got to be careful.

walk her --
hold her hand.

here.

here,
come on over here.

oh, okay.

waiting for
mursel to get here,

i’m excited, i’m nervous,
i’m worried.

i’ve got all these emotions
running through me,

and i can’t believe that
we’ve got this second chance.

and i’m just --
inside, i’m freaking out.

leo, look, leo, look.

mursel!

i’m excited for them
to get married

because my mom’s always sad
whenever she’s --

i’m excited
to get cake.

shh.

my mom’s always sad whenever
mursel’s, like, not here,

and then now mursel’s
going to be here every day.

anna: boys, we’re not done.
we got to get mursel’s bags.

oh, yeah.
leo, come on.

oh, here.

mursel, it’s coming.

i’m so excited that
mursel landed

and got here without any issues,
but now we got to get home.

leo, come on.

and we’ve only got
a couple of hours left

before the visa expires,

so i’m really flustered.
we’ve got a lot to do.

we have a couple weeks
left before the wedding,

and i’ve been very stressed out
and sad and depressed.

i was completely,
utterly destroyed by that

when i heard that.

i don’t think i have
that full soulmate feeling.

hey, babe.

i wish we had more time,
but time’s ticking.

so i would really, you know,
like to talk to tania.

how are you?

um...

just feeling super low
and confused.

and i feel like --
almost like i came out here,

and i don’t even know
what i’m doing here right now.

hmm.
yeah.

babe, i’m sorry.

i...

i know.
i just feel hurt.

i feel hurt.

i felt like i was holding
on to something

that i wasn’t fully
sharing with you.

and that’s why
i kind of just...

it, like, felt good
to finally let you know.

like, how would you feel
if you heard

those exact words
come out of my mouth?

you think you would
just be fine about it?

no, that’s why
i’m not mad that you’re upset

or anything, and that’s
why i never really wanted

to have that conversation
because it’s like

i feel like i don’t even
fully understand

or know
what soulmates are.

like, do people only
have one soulmate?

do people have
multiple soulmates? like...

i don’t know.
i just view...

maybe i view it too strongly,
but i always view like

when soulmates meet,
it’s like your soulmate.

like you said, "our souls
are meant to be together"

and things like that.

that’s things we have
literally said before.

that’s what
kind of gets me going

through the tough times,
when we’re arguing,

i’m like, "hey, i believe
we’re meant to be.

like, we’re soulmates
so we’ve got to work

through this"

i’m just worried.

yeah.
even if we get married now,

it’s like, are we
compatible, you know?

of course this hurt him,
this was a shock.

so i need to give him time
to heal and things.

but i’m so sure in our love
and in our relationship,

and our future that i don’t
want there to be, like,

questions that there just
shouldn’t be questions about.

it’s like maybe
i’m crazy for being like,

"he’s not my soulmate
or not even."

i don’t think
that you’re not.

but i know our souls --
like, we’re meant

to, like, find each
other somehow, come on.

i found you literally
in a bar across the ocean.

and i remember standing
outside that bar.

like, i was at a bar
across the street

and looking at your bar
and being like,

"yo, i need to
get in this bar."

i got turned down the first
time, and what did i do?

i went back,
and i was like,

"no, i need to come
inside this bar."

i didn’t know who or what was
in there waiting for me.

and i know it hurt, baby.
i know it really hurt.

but, like, you have to know
that fact has never

changed how i felt about you
or how much i love you

or how much
i want a future with you,

how much i want to
have kids with you,

how much i want to
just explore life.

like, that fact
has never changed anything

about our relationship.

so do you still want
to marry me?

i still
want to marry you.

good.

but we’re going to get married
literally to just keep on

living together and keep on
working through this.

we have a long
path to walk.

yeah, hopefully with none
of those surprises anymore.

i don’t have any other

soulmates
in my back pocket.

too soon?

i’m sorry.

i feel good.
i feel good after

talking with
syngin today.

we have a lot of things to work
on before we get married,

and is that okay
to get married on

when we have so much
to work on?

but as long as you’re actively
working on it, it’s okay.

i love you.

i love you,
too, baby.

jasmin: i’ve never been
to any weddings.

i only see weddings in movies,
so it’s interesting.

as long as she doesn’t run
the other way

at top speed,
you’re all right.

i don’t think so.
i think she’ll be good.

oh, bryson, you look cute.
come here. do a spin.

it’s my wedding.

i’m excited, and i’m scared
at the same time.

yo, cuzzo.

it’s the big day.
it’s the wedding day.

i’m feeling excited.

i mean, i feel like we both
are really excited,

but like i said,
i’m not, like, a wedding person.

i don’t know much
about weddings.

i’ve never been
to any weddings either.

i’ve only seen weddings
in movies, so it’s interesting.

when i first met jasmin online,
i had no idea, you know,

that she was even real
in the first place.

i did not think that
we’d be getting married,

but, you know, we are,
and it’s great.

it feels good.

hey.
hey.

you see?

oh, that’s pretty.
what is that for?

for you to hold?
that big one?

yep, you’re going to
hold it like this.

no, i’m not.

yeah, like...

i got to cut them
for you.

never made a bouquet before.

going to get all the thorns out
and try to make it smooth

so she can carry them.

yeah, i just want everything
to be perfect.

i think i got
the hang of it now.

ow!

can’t have, you know,
the big dream wedding that

i really want,
so i’m just going to do

what i actually can afford.

i think i did pretty good.

jasmin: what i’m wearing
today, it’s not like

a traditional big wedding dress.

it’s more like
a c*ck small dress.

i ordered that dress
online in finland,

and i brought it myself.

i didn’t get a big wedding dress
or anything like that

because i thought we were
just going to have,

like, a courthouse.

i didn’t know we were going
to have in a park wedding

so i wasn’t prepared
for like big wedding.

you look
very, very wonderful.

we all good?
yep, ready to go.

ready. good.

so in traditional weddings,
i’m not supposed to

see you, but i’m sure
we’ll be fine.

yeah.

my ideal wedding
would just be me and blake

and our parents
and small ceremony

and not too many people
around or just elope

and just be us two,
small and intimate.

my ideal
one with me, you know,

i would want everybody
that’s close to me to be there,

but i understand, you know,
we have 90 days,

and it’s kind of short,
so we kind of have to

compromise somewhere
in the middle.

it smells good.
yeah.

-does it look good?
-yeah.

the wedding,
we’re going to have it at

warner center park.

it means a lot to me
because i grew up, like,

right there, so there’s a lot of
memories at that place.

then some of my family
and loved ones are there.

it means a lot to me.

-what’s going on?
-what’s up, buddy?

thank you guys for coming.
thank you.

-hey.
-how are you?

thank you guys
for coming.

you look beautiful.
thank you.

mm!
you look beautiful.

thank you. you too.

i’m good. how are you?
good to see you.

hi.

let’s do this.

joey: i’m happy that we’re
all here today to celebrate

blake and jasmin, and there’s
a couple of concerns that i had,

but we’ll see
what the future holds.

just got to support him,
you know?

got to support him.
yeah.

so, ready for it?

let’s do it. i’m ready.
okay.

let’s go.

kerline: my wish is for my son
to really be happy.

he has been hurt before,
but jasmin made it clear to me

that she does not want to work,
and i still have a problem

with that because marriage
is not easy at all.

it takes teamwork.

as long as she doesn’t run
the other way

at top speed,
you’re all right.

i don’t know
if that’s happening.

i don’t think so.
we should be good.

blake: you know,
the 90 day process was rough

in the beginning,
and at certain points

i didn’t know if we were
going to make it,

come out the other end,
but we did.

you know, it’s happening.
it’s real.

thank you.

dearly beloved friends
and family, good afternoon.

on behalf of blake and jasmin,
i’d like to thank you

and welcome all of you
for being here.

by your presence,
you celebrate with them the love

that they have discovered
in each other

and you support their decision
to commit themselves

to one another
for the rest of their lives.

and it is into this union
that jasmin and blake

come now to be joined.

blake, repeat after me.

i, blake, take you, jasmin,
to be my wife.

i, blake, take you, jasmin,
to be my wife.

i will share
my life with yours.

i will share
my life with yours.

and build
our dreams together.

and build
our dreams together.

i will support you through
times of trouble.

i will support you through
times of trouble.

and rejoice with you
in times of happiness.

and rejoice with you
in times of happiness.

jasmin, please repeat
after me.

i, jasmin, take you,
blake, to be my husband.

i, jasmin, take blake
to be my husband.

i will share
my life with yours.

i will share
my life with yours.

build our dreams
together.

build our
dreams together.

support you through times
of trouble.

support you
times of trouble.

and rejoice with you
in happiness.

and rejoice with you
in happiness.

blake, place the ring
on jasmin’s finger

and repeat after me.

i give you this ring.

i give you this ring.

as this ring has no end.

as this ring has no end.

my love is also forever.

my love
is also forever.

jasmin, place this ring
on blake’s finger

and please repeat after me.

i give you this ring.
i give you this ring.

as this ring has no end.

as this ring has no end.

my love is also forever.

my love is also forever.

and so now by the power
vested in me

by the state of california,

it is my honor and delight
to declare you husband and wife.

you may kiss the bride.

you walking?

-way to go, blake
-congratulations.

there we go!

was he crying?
oh, i didn’t know

that he was crying.

oh, okay.
well, he was crying.

good, that was good.
i wanted that.

that’s when everything
hit me, you know?

wasn’t so bad, was it?

no.
that was easy, right?

yeah, i was struggling
with my words.

it was great.
i loved it.

yeah.

i’ve definitely had some doubts.

a lot of doubts,
actually, you know?

and up until the last minute,
i was like,

"i need to see it
to believe it for myself."

you know, just a real
connection between them.

and i think i noticed that.
i saw that today.

you know, they shared a moment,

and it was nice to witness
that at the ceremony.

look at damien
on the red phone.

-what?
-okay, now look at ashley

with that phone.

oh, my goodness,
blake!

the 90 days went fast,
really fast.

i feel like i just got here
two weeks ago.

and i’m happy.

yeah, i think it’s because
everybody’s here

and they see the love.

you know?
it’s really good.

perfect.

my dress.

oh, my god.
it’s so nice.

oh, i need
something with you.

you’re over here in america
to get a green card

so that you can have
a better life.

how many more days
until you leave?

why would you
even do that?

i’ve got problems
with you already.

robert: today is my big day.
it’s my wedding.

i’m excited, and i’m scared
at the same time.

how you feeling today?

i’m happy. i’m just not
"whoo" happy.

i’ve been in previous
relationships in the past.

i have five children
by four different women,

but i’ve never been married.

i’m a firm believer
of you’re married together,

you stay together.

no divorce.

i’m still a little concerned
about getting married to a woman

that i only
physically met for one day

before coming to america.

to be honest,
i’m still nervous, very nervous.

oh, bryson, you look cute.
come here, do a spin.

seeing bryson in his little suit
look so cute,

looks like a little
mini version of me.

you look nice.
give me a high-five.

i got ready.

then we leave
to the wedding chapel.

tight-a*s pants, yo.

what? that’s why i didn’t
want to do it.

with your
patrick swayze pants, now.

no.

thank y’all
for being here.

absolutely.

what time is it?

well, we ain’t going to
get -- it’s 6:00 now.

it’s 6:00.

robert: i never thought
that this day would come.

now the reality
is really hitting me.

i think it’s that lotion
i got on my hands.

i think it was --

yo, real talk. if i said to you,
"let’s drive off,

let’s go to, um..."

all these thoughts is
racing through my mind

that i am going to be
bonded with anny for life.

in my mind, i’m like,
"it’s not too late."

i don’t know.

mike: i want to talk to natalie.

i’m just looking for some type
of closure, answer, something.

i don’t know.

mike: i’ve been back
in the states for a week now.

just trying to
knock out.

you know, just trying
to keep busy right now.

but, you know, any hardship
of a relationship,

you’ve got feelings.

you got a lot invested,
you put a lot of emotions.

and, yeah, i mean,
it’s just -- it’s hard.

this is the longest we’ve gone
without talking to each other.

i’m just looking for
some type of closure,

answer, something, reasoning.

i don’t know.

-hi.
-hey.

your mom’s okay?

what have you been
doing this last week?

sure.

no.

you know, we just
didn’t leave on good terms

when i left you,
so, i don’t know.

i’ve just been
thinking about that a lot.

yeah, there’s a lot to talk
about it, don’t you think?

you don’t think nothing
about it?

i’m trying to talk to you
about it.

well, yeah.
i don’t know.

i’ve had a real tough week
since i’ve been back, so...

do you love me or what?

i’m asking you,
do you love me?

i’ve always
loved you, natalie.

but right now, i don’t know.

kind of cut me deep.

you were there. what do you mean
what did you do?

and other things.

you don’t remember doing
all the other things?

mm-hmm.

mm-hmm.

how did i cut you?

i think i am beyond
responsible right now,

and i need you
to be more serious.

so do i. so do i.

mm-hmm.

we have disagreements,
you’re absolutely right.

perfect. okay. all right.

i don’t know what’s honestly
going through her head,

you know?

i’m going to talk
to you later then, okay?

because i mean, this is not
working out right now.

all right. bye.

it’s very important for
the legitimacy of your wedding

i don’t have no friends
that’s going to want

to pay this expensive trip.

i know there was
some talk about getting

a prenuptial agreement.

decided not to do it.

i have to protect max
and cece’s future.

why did you decide
not to get one?

angela: this is more like
downtown or something.

oh, god. i don’t
like this already.

i don’t like this
already.

the other night,
we had dinner

with michael’s family
and his mom,

and they want us to get
married here in nigeria.

you know, they didn’t say
everything i wanted to hear,

but i opened my mind to
listening instead of talking.

we’re here.

so today, michael’s taking me
to the marriage registry

so i can find out
a little more about

getting married in nigeria.

thank you.

am i 100% sold on it?
no.

but i did agree to come,

so let’s see what
this registrar has to say.

angela.

this is my third trip.

yes, sir.

i’m nervous.

this is not getting
married today, is it?

can i ask you this.

getting married with
the spousal visa,

is that a better chance
to get him with me,

where he belongs,
in the united states?

honestly, i’ve had my mind set
on getting married

in the united states.

but coming here just right now,
talking to you,

you’ve told me what i needed
to hear from you as an official,

you know?

hearing the registry say
that getting married in nigeria

is the best route for
michael and i to be together,

it’s not what i want,
but time is not on our side

right now
with this k-1 visa denial.

let’s go ahead and sign
this registry.

thank you, baby.

okay.

me?

oh, gosh.

i don’t have no one
that can come.

yeah, i know.

so i don’t know if it’s
the best way to go.

thank you.

deal?

deal?

deal.

michael: max, max, please.

can you help your sister out?

it’s been a week
since our wedding.

my heart still flutters.

-hey!
-literally, i have such energy

and positive emotions.

it’s beautiful, it’s wonderful.
i wouldn’t change a thing.

sarah: so, how was your time
with daddy and juliana?

good.

did you guys go
trick or treating?

what did
juliana dress up as?

a zombie.
a zombie?

but kind of
hot, right?

-yeah.
-dad, stop.

she was offered
a lot of tricks.

so max and cece,
it’s getting late.

you two go upstairs,
get your homework done

and get ready for bed, okay?
i love you, sweetie.

-love you.
-i love you too, monkey.

-see you in the morning.
-yeah, good night.

-love you buddy.
-love you.

good night.

so, the wedding
turned out great.

oh, man.
it was a blast.

it was beyond anything
we could have dreamt of.

the service was amazing.
thank you.

that blew my mind, really.

it was perfect.

it’s so funny because
remember it rained

before our wedding,
but the day before

and the day after
our wedding?

that’s kind of
how it was for you guys.

yeah, i thought about
the same thing.

but the actual
wedding day was just --

gorgeous. perfect.
glorious and perfect.

yeah.

yep.

so, um, i know there
was some talk about

getting
a prenuptial agreement.

did you visit
the mediator?

yeah, we did. we did.

how’d that work out?

decided not to do it.

why did you decide
not to get one?

to be honest, it was
a horrible experience.

juliana was so upset.
i don’t want to do it.

i believe in love,

and i believe
in this relationship.

not the kind of way
i want to live my life anyway.

you know, contracts
when it comes to

being married.

it puts such a bad,
dark cloud

over the whole thing
in a way.

sarah: i really wasn’t surprised
at juliana’s response.

when she met mike,
she probably felt like,

"okay, this is somebody
i can rely on."

but then she gets here,
and a few weeks later,

she’s in a lawyer’s office
suggesting that perhaps

she won’t be able
to rely on him.

so, if there’s
nothing in writing

and something happened,
how do you know whatever

you’ve had set aside
for the kids

is going
to be protected?

if something happens
with juliana and i,

they’ll be fine,
you know?

that’s more estate planning
and setting things up

so that they’re okay,
blah, blah, blah, you know?

i’ve always trusted that
you take care of your family.

if you feel that the kids’
futures are protected,

i just have to trust that
everything’s going to work out

just fine, right?

life is dealing
with unknowns.

you can’t pretend to be able
to plan for everything,

every contingency.
there’s no way.

i’m not
worried about that.

you know?
yeah.

the kids will be fine.

anna: we’re very behind.
people are coming in an hour.

i don’t have anything set up.
i don’t have anything done.

my hair’s not done, nothing.

once we get back to the house,

we’ve only got two hours
before the ceremony.

okay.
you need to breathe.

i know, i’m, like,
starting to freak out.

robert: right now, i’m having
second thoughts.

woman: all rise, please.

a lot of second thoughts.

there’s something i want to say.

i can’t do this.

oh, my god.

-don’t turn off it!
-i’m fixing it.

okay, you guys
stop hitting

each other
like little babies.

we’re very behind.
people are coming in an hour.

i don’t have anything set up.
i don’t have anything done.

my hair is not done,
nothing.

anna: on the way back home,
i’m kind of freaking out.

there’s only five hours
until the visa expires,

and once we get back
to the house,

we’ve only got two hours
before the ceremony

and it’s just insane.

we’ve got to get all this stuff
done, and there’s no time.

okay.

you guys, we got to hurry
and get some stuff.

leo: let’s go
in the house.

okay. come on.

okay, um...

look. mursel, look.

mursel, look.

you go...

yes, very easy.
you, okay?

-hey, anna
-yeah?

okay, i’m sorry --
no, you’re fine.

oh.

okay, so if you want to help
with the outside stuff?

sure.

i decided to have the wedding
in the backyard.

i went and got flowers and
some decorations this morning.

i’m really excited that
my friends are here to help.

it’s just kind of
really crazy right now.

don’t drop the lights.

yeah, you want
to be careful, bud.

they’ll, like, shatter.

i’m excited,
but i’m really stressed out

because everything’s taking so
much longer than i had planned.

oh, there. you’re here.
oh, thank you.

thank you.

oh, god.

i’m trying to get
my makeup and hair done.

-okay, let me help you.
-i’m, like, losing it.

-don’t.
-i don’t know what to do

with my hair.

vivi’s helping me
with my hair.

liliana and stephanie
are in the back

helping set up for the ceremony.

it’s pretty crazy.

like, i want to wear it
half up, but --

okay.

and then i have that thing
you let me borrow.

you want half up with a little
bit of hair in front?

yeah.

okay.
you need to breathe.

i know. i’m, like,
starting to freak out.

hey.
how are you feeling?

excited,
apprehensive?

no, i’m excited.
it’s good.

i just wish
that it wasn’t so rushed

because there’s four hours
left on this visa.

four hours left
on the visa?

all right.
i got to get this dress on.

i might need everyone
to help zip it up.

-you look so pretty!
-okay.

-sh**t. okay, we’re good.
-get your shoes on.

- look at them
-you look so pretty.

your hair looks so good,
your makeup looks so good,

and everything is all together.

-it did.
-thank you, you guys.

-oh, god.
-yay! whoo-hoo, b*tches!

okay, so who in your
family is here?

just leo and gino.

no, joey?

-no joey, no --
-joey refused to come.

what happened?

he does not want me
to marry mursel.

so he just said,
"i’m not coming."

yeah.

anna: i asked joey to come
to the wedding

just to be there
to support me,

and he still is adamant
about not coming.

and my mom doesn’t think
that highly of mursel,

but it’s my wedding day
and my mom should be there.

i’m hoping that they’ll
change their mind

and show up to the wedding,

but it’s got to be
now or never, so...

i really appreciate you guys
all being here for me.

i wouldn’t be able
to pull this off

without you guys.

-we’re here, man.
-we got you.

-what?
-what is it?

-oh, my god.
-oh, my god.

-what?
-what is it?

wait, why is mursel
standing right here?

oh, my god.

what’s up, mursel?

what is it for?

-you’re not allowed to be here!
-no, he his tradition.

is your tradition,
turkish tradition?

-what?
-for put on anna?

put on?

you put on her?

okay, are you ready
to see mursel?

-okay.
-oh, snap!

okay! you ready?

one, two, three.

oh, my god!

oh, my god.

whoops.

-no, you can’t kiss him yet.
-i’m not.

i’m just
going like this.

okay.

- oh, yeah, yeah.
- okay.

anna: i’m really stressed,
but we’re at the finish line.

we’ve got a lot of people
outside waiting for us.

we’re only like two hours
behind schedule.

with two hours left
before the end of the visa.

oh, my gosh.

you’re about
to actually do this

when i walked out
to the backyard,

my first impression was my
friends did a really great job,

and it just looked
really, really nice.

a little part of me is upset

that we couldn’t have the big
wedding that i had planned,

but i guess the most
important thing is that

we’re getting married.

-can i walk you there?
-yeah, you can walk with.

aw, he can
walk you down.

should gino and leo?

-yeah, why not?
-gino.

yeah.
oh, that’s -- aw.

-that’s sweet, leo.
-that is so sweet, leo.

i had originally asked joey
to walk me down the aisle,

but he didn’t want to do that.

knowing that joey
isn’t at the wedding,

i guess it just hurt me
that he didn’t want to be there.

so it was really special
when leo came up

and asked if he could
walk me down the aisle.

i’m very grateful that i have
at least two of my sons

there with me being a part
of this wedding.

all right.
give me a hug.

thank you.

gino.

thank you, sweetie.

woman: okay, well,
good evening, everybody.

it is truly wonderful
for two people

to find one another
and to love so deeply

they choose to embrace
the bond of marriage.

anna marie and mursel,
if you’re ready to step

into the circle of matrimony,
i want you to join hands.

do you, mursel,
take this woman, anna marie,

to be your wife today,
to love her and honor her,

to nurture and support her
until death do you part?

yes.

and do you, anna marie,

take this man who stands
before you, mursel,

to be your husband,
to love him, to honor him,

to nurture and support him
till death do you part?

if so, please
tell him, "i do."

i do.

mursel, place the ring
on her hand.

and, anna marie, will you place
the ring on mursel’s hand?

so in the presence
of your witnesses,

i pronounced that you are
now husband and wife.

you may seal your union
with a kiss.

anna: i just can’t believe
that we’re here.

we had to overcome
a lot of obstacles.

you know, the language barrier
was difficult.

joey and mursel
not getting along.

the drama with his family.

and then of course
mursel leaving.

i didn’t think
that we would get here.

but this is the beginning
of the rest of our life.

i’m excited.

perfect. perfect.

there you go.
you got it.

-whoo!
-oh, there we go.

-all right.
-cheers!

no, not alcohol.

aw, thank you, leo.

you’re a sweetie.

-ching, ching.
-ching, ching.

to a long, healthy,
happy marriage.

thank you for everybody
that came.

i appreciate it.

you guys are so nice
to each other.

yay!

i know.

oh, my god.

so we ended up with two hours
before the visa expired.

mursel, two hours.

two hours,
visa finish.

angela: being at the airport
saying goodbye to michael.

it’s sadder i think
than any other time.

what?

-tania!
-i’m coming

i definitely thought it was
going to be more further along.

people are already
arriving, so...

no.

michael should have had
that visa,

and he should have been
on the plane over there.

and that’s that.

so now i got to go back and...

oh, gosh, this is
the worst part of it.

i have to go back
and tell my family

that i might be coming back
to nigeria to marry their papa!

yeah!

we knew there was going
to be hurdles in this process

to legally get married,
and now the hardest part is

breaking the news to my family

that i might be planning
on marrying michael in nigeria.

and if we get married
in nigeria,

we need somebody
from the united states

to witness michael
and i’s wedding,

but i don’t see that happening.

i just don’t.

if i don’t have a witness
come time to get married here

in lagos, nigeria,
the wedding can’t happen.

here we are, baby.

being at the airport
saying goodbye to michael again,

when i was thinking
that this time

that michael would be with me
in the u. s.,

it’s sadder i think
than any other times

because it just seems like
people keep trying to stop

me and michael’s
love for each other.

i love you.

what?

michael,
i don’t like surprises.

shh.

michael,
what are you doing?

you’re making
my mind race.

you got...

oh, my god!

yes, i love it.

so you’re going
to wear this one?

okay, put mine on.

and i’ll put yours on.

oh, it’s so pretty!

oh!

yeah.

i just love these.

yes. oh, yes.

i love you.

yep.

you’ll be all right.

i know michael’s
sad about this.

seeing michael cry
gets me upset.

how can anybody think
our love is not real?

nobody goes through
this much damn

if it’s not real.

i got to go.
i love you.

got to go.

♪ don’t you ever let me go ♪

i don’t care what we go through,

what we’re gonna go through
in the future.

i know me and michael always
find our way back to each other.

i love you.

michael, get ready.
you’re coming to america.

♪ i know i stand my life ♪

i love you, michael!

♪ you always seem to do ♪

♪ wait for you ♪

it’s wedding day.

how you feeling, baby?

feeling good.
i’m excited about it.

♪ wedding day ♪

yeah, today is the day.
today’s the wedding day.

my 90 days were a little rough.

there was of course,
some parts where it’s like,

"are we going to stay together,
is this right?"

you know, the whole
soulmate thing really had

syngin questioning stuff,
which is understandable.

but here we are.

it’s crazy. it’s been
a couple of months,

couple of weeks,
couple of days.

now this comes down
to a couple of hours.

i know.

how are you feeling?
you nervous? excited?

i just feel
like really behind,

and i’d love to get
everything set up right now.

are you feeling
a little stressed?

we should have been there
like an hour and a half ago.

like, things would’ve probably
been set and done by now.

tania: the wedding is
in mystic, connecticut

and we rented an airbnb
that has a beautiful backyard,

but i am a couple hours
behind on my wedding.

i feel like
it’s going to be --

what?

i haven’t even
started vows yet.

oh. neither have i.

oh

oh

d. i. y. wedding.

i’m gonna write some, like,
promises to you.

like, i promise to...

promise to do me good
every morning.

baby.

syngin’s way better
with words than i am,

especially when it comes
to, like, expressing love.

he’s so poetic, and i just
don’t have that.

so i’m nervous,
and i’m feeling like

i’m going to have time
to sit down and write them out,

but i’m not too sure if i will.

d. i. y. wedding.
here we go.

i’m super grateful that
syngin’s friend, chart,

and his wife andy are here.

they’re helping us.

but i definitely probably

could have just used
a couple more hands.

man: are you guys are going
to take some photos

before we do
the ceremony, or...?

i ended up not getting
the photographer.

okay.

so i don’t know
what’s going on.

yeah, you’re camera guy.

take a thousand
and pick the best you want,

you know?

you’re the camera guy.

we are doing a backyard wedding,

and there is a lot
to turn this back yard

into a semi-dream wedding.

putting an aisle here,

and then we’ll have candles
on the edge of that,

but we have to put
the black thing down first

with the rose petals, yeah.

i love to create an ambience.

i want people to come in
and feel like they’re almost

transported to
a different place,

so it’s super important for me
to have everything set up

before people even get there.

careful of that rock
to the front left.

we have to set up a bar.

we have to set up the grill area
so we can barbecue some food,

the chairs, the tables
that we can all sit at.

candles everywhere ’cause it’s
going to be a nighttime wedding.

there is just a lot to do.

and it’s taking a lot longer
than i would’ve thought.

we got to put pep
in our step ’cause

we really do have
like a lot more to do.

we got all those candles
and stuff we got to put out.

should have asked
for that help.

i know i should have.

syngin: kind of a little bit
behind schedule,

so things are
a little bit frantic.

you know, people are giving
a helping hand where they can.

normally, i’d prefer to be
chilling right now,

a couple of hours
before my wedding,

but, you know, that’s simply not
the case right now.

tania: yeah, go ahead
and start lighting candles.

i definitely thought it was
going to be further along.

she’s more organized usually,
so there’s so much to do,

and the ceremony
seems like it’s happening now.

people are already arriving,
so i’m really nervous.

that way.

tania: people are pretty
much arriving now,

and i’m still not even ready.

we still have a couple
more decorations to go.

i’m definitely not showered,
makeup’s not done,

hair is not done,
but every minute counts.

i guess i’ll just bird bath it.

-almost there.
-almost there.

-tania!
-i’m coming!

finally, it’s done.

it looks better than i thought
it would have,

so i’m extremely happy.

imagine we were supposed
to do this four hours ago.

how are you guys feeling today?
how’s syngin?

mm.

no jitters?
or was everything

just so nerve wracking
because you didn’t know

if you were going
to finish in time.

yeah. it was just more,
like, set up.

so all that stuff weeks ago,
all of it’s gone?

you’re ready for this?
oh, i mean --

are you actually
ready for this?

um, i mean, i was --

yeah, like, of course
we’re always going to have

things to work on
and stuff.

we only had 90 days
with him in the states.

right. but do you feel better
about it now, though?

yeah, i do feel better.
i do feel a lot better.

you were, like, pretty nervous
last time we talked.

no, i do feel
a lot better.

i think that’s
a question for syngin.

does he feel better?

this is crazy.

i don’t even have
vows yet.

i don’t.
i have nothing.

the 90 days went super fast.

all the different things
that we went through,

it’s coming down to today.

all the stress, all the talk,
all the...

just everything.

nervous man.

i’m nervous right now.

i’m nervous about commitment
and now to be saying,

"i fully commit to you
for the rest of my life,"

is a very, very big statement
when you still haven’t

really figured out
if your future aligns.

let’s go get married.

let’s go.

you can do it.

i like breaking boundaries
as much as i can,

so i’m not doing a white dress
like the average wedding has.

i am doing a black dress.

-ready, mommy?
-mm-hmm.

i’m doing a black lace dress
over pink satin,

and it’s going
to be beautiful.

-that looks gorgeous, tania.
-i felt great when i put it on.

i had it fitted to my body
so it shapes it out great.

it fits my boobs amazingly.

i love this dress.
it’s everything i wanted.

woman: so cute.

♪ i’ll pour out my soul ♪

mm.

♪ throw away the nerves ♪

♪ always gonna love you
like no other ♪

all right.

wow.

i’m just watching it
all play out as she walks down.

she looked absolutely stunning.

like, i sometimes
can’t believe how beautiful

of a woman
i’m getting married to.

she looked gorgeous.

i got quite emotional in there.

it’s like, "damn, you know,
this is a very surreal moment."

officiant:
good evening, everyone.

thank you for coming together
here on this beautiful

and special day witnessed here
by just a few friends and family

and some friends
back in south africa.

hi, mom! hi, dad!

tania: thanks for
being awake at this time!

thank you.

what you’ve accomplished here
today is no small feat.

you have each taken the time

to learn what makes
each other smile...

right?
yeah.

and importantly, you learn
how to best support each other

when life is less than simple.

i join everyone here today
in wishing you both

the absolute best in your
continued journey

through life together.

and now we will move on
to the vows of marriage.

would you like to go first?

i would love
to go first.

oh, my god. i can’t.
oh, you’re going first.

i go down on my knee
to promise to uphold you

and love you and respect you
and treasure you

for as ever
as long as god

gives us this time together,
you know?

since the first day
i met you

sitting at the corner
of the bar...

...i always knew that

there was more than
a one night stand.

but seriously,
i love you.

you bring the best
out of me,

and i promise that
i’ll always be there

respecting you
and honoring you

for as long
as i possibly can.

-whoo!
-beautiful.

you’re such a romantic.

baby, i have a lot
of promises for you.

i promise to call you
as often as i can

when i get home drunk.

i promise to tell you
how much i love you.

i promise to be patient.

i promise to be softer
and let you in more.

and i promise
to continue to break down

the walls
that i’ve built.

i love you.

i love you, too.

as for their rings,
tania and syngin

have chosen a special,
unique style.

they will symbolically connect
their love

through tattoos!

-whoo!
-yes.

give it up for tattoos.

oh
my first tattoo.

oh, my

you ready?

as ready as i’ll ever be.

oh, i’m so scared now.

mnh-mnh.

okay. that’s good.

tania: we decided on
the sagittarius symbol.

sagittarius is the travel sign,

and it just felt like
super important to us.

like, we met while traveling,

and it just seemed to be
the power of our relationship.

officiant: the first tattoo!

i think the tattoos were
definitely, like, a cute touch

for who they are.

that’s definitely something
that’s permanent.

with this tattoo,
i thee wed.

with this tattoo,
i thee wed.

and tania.

with this tattoo,
i thee wed.

i hereby pronounce you
husband and wife.

you may kiss the bride!

-congratulations.
-thank you, man.

it just turned out beautiful.

they’ll both be great
in the world,

and i couldn’t ask for anything
better or more

as a mother for my daughter.

the 90-day process
is hard as hell.

we had ups and downs,
times that we weren’t sure

if we’d make it,
but we did.

we did. i’m grateful.
i’m so happy we did.

i’m happy to start
a life with you,

and i’m ready to see
where we go with this.

congratulations to
the both of you.

thank you!

syngin: here we are
busy getting married,

and it’s completely
insane to ever think

that me meeting that girl
and her sliding her number

to me would lead
to all of this.

we did it.

high five.

love you.
we did it.

love you, too, babe.

we’re married!

yep!

robert: today is my big day.
it’s my wedding.

now the reality
is really hitting me.

i never been married before.

it’s a big commitment.
it means a lot.

come here,
let me fix your coat.

right now i’m having
second thoughts,

a lot of second thoughts.

i’m going to pull it down
a little from here.

look at you.

you’re like a big kid
in a candy store.

officiant: all rise, please.

welcome everyone to
the little wedding chapel.

today, you become a creation
as you two come together

as one that has never, ever
been before in the earth.

leaving and knowing
you have found a true love,

an everlasting love.

so i’m going to ask you,

is there anyone here who objects
to these two being married?

if so, if you’ll speak now,
or forever hold your peace.

um...

there’s something
i want to say.

i can’t do this
right now.

so i’m going to ask you,

is there anyone who objects
to these two being married?

if so, if you’ll speak now
or forever hold your peace.

um...

there’s something
i want to say.

i can’t do this
right now.

and that’s because
i haven’t done something

that should’ve
been done to you.

wow.

yay.

it’s beautiful.

beautiful.

i love you until the day
i leave this earth.

you’re welcome.

robert, do you take anny
to be your wife?

yes, i do.

anny, do you take robert
to be your husband?

yes, i do.

well, since you’ve made
these commitments

before everyone here,

by the laws
of the state of florida,

i declare that you are
now husband and wife.

you may kiss
your beautiful bride.

congratulations, everyone!

i’m happy, excited.

i got my beautiful wife here,
family here, friends.

i’m loving this moment.

what’s the future
hold for you guys?

i ain’t say 10 babies.

no i did not.

acts like
i want an nba team.

kids running
around the house.

i did not say that

shaun: next week,
the couples tell all.

you say he’s not
your soulmate.

because you have a different
meaning of soulmate.

so why marry him?

why did you to get divorced?
was there an infidelity?

i’ll let michael
answer that.

are there any other secrets
that you keep from his family?

they don’t really
need to know.

i never lied to.
i never lied to you.

he was cheating?

shaun: mike, what is
she talking about?

i got to a point
where i was depressed.

i was thinking about suicide.

i-i’m speechless.
i-i don’t...

my bank account.

sasha’s true behavior,
we’ll see that once

he actually
gets the green card.

i’m so
sick of hearing this.

jasmine, it feels like
we’re not worth your time.

you done send me
some nasty texts!

-and me too.
that’s why bryson is not

going in your crib.

this story goes real deep,
and it’s dark.

remember this, baby.

cut him off
the screen,

or i’ll walk
out of this

michael, michael. okay.
we’re handling it from here.

angela. uh-oh.
