FIFA World Cup 2026 it's mojo in the morning show so Shannon uh you're panicking about the wedding

00:01:40 - 00:02:51 | Speaker 3:

date I think I'm just like getting super stressed because we don't have a wedding date so Wes and I got engaged back in January right around the time of my birthday and everybody keeps asking me when are you guys getting married have you set a date yet where are you guys getting married what are you doing and I'm starting to feel panicky and uncomfortable because we don't have a specific date set yet we have no plan whatsoever we are just enjoying our engagement but I feel like I am getting judged for not having any sort of plan right now how are you gonna judge you I don't know I feel like when when people ask oh do you guys have a date set yet and my answer is usually no we don't we're just enjoying our engagement oh the wedding is kind of at the bottom of our priority list right now which is really true we have a ton of other things on our plate and we're trying to get some other things figured out before we plan like an actual party a wedding and I feel like people look at me and they're thinking oh she she must have cold feet or they don't really want to get married and that's why they're dragging their feet.

00:02:51 - 00:02:55 | Speaker 4:

Have you ever had anybody say that to you at all? Like, do you have cold feet?

00:02:55 - 00:03:06 | Speaker 3:

No, no. That's just like when somebody gives me the look after I say, oh no, we're not even really planning anything yet. Like, we don't have any ideas of what we're going to do. They look at me like I'm crazy.

00:03:06 - 00:03:17 | Speaker 4:

Are both of you guys on the same page with waiting? Okay, so this is not you saying I want to wait until we get some things out. This is both. Do you know yet if it's going to be a big ceremony or are you just having a couple people?

00:03:17 - 00:03:33 | Speaker 3:

or the only thing that we have talked about is that when we actually get married married like for real married we want it to be just our little family so Wes and myself he has two kids and then Lucy and Smith we want it to be just the six of us very intimate and then we'll have like a party

00:03:33 - 00:04:11 | Speaker 4:

okay so we don't know when here here's the question how long can you be engaged before people say all right enough already like what's the longest engagement is there anybody that has had a really long engagement. I think back to celebrities. Weren't there some famous celebrities? Wasn't it Oprah? Or who was it that was engaged? I don't think Oprah was ever engaged. No, Oprah was never engaged. Who was... There was the... I thought there was like a long... I'm going to Google this. Longest celebrity engagement. Because I felt like there was somebody that was always engaged. And they never really...

00:04:11 - 00:04:16 | Speaker 3:

We are going to get married. I just don't know an exact date to give you.

00:04:16 - 00:04:43 | Speaker 4:

but yeah the 11 longest celebrity engagements oh these ones don't seem that long Miley and let's see here Miley and Liam Hemsworth engaged for six years off and on Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie two years Amy Adams seven years with Darren Legallo what were you gonna say Megan

00:04:43 - 00:04:46 | Speaker 2:

Did somebody say Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell?

00:04:46 - 00:04:51 | Speaker 4:

Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, actually, yes. Hold on, are they on this list? I don't even think they're married. No, they're not.

00:04:51 - 00:04:58 | Speaker 3:

I don't think they're married. I think they're just like a couple, a forever couple. I thought they were like engaged and then never wanted to get married. I don't know, who cares?

00:04:58 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 4:

I just love her. Oh.

00:05:00 - 00:05:03 | Speaker 3:

Here's one. Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard, four years.

00:05:03 - 00:05:04 | Speaker 4:

Oh, they were, yeah.

00:05:05 - 00:05:19 | Speaker 3:

Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde were seven years. Oh, yeah, yeah. There you go. Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux were engaged for three years. All right. Well, Mojo in the Morning. Nicole, how you doing?

00:05:20 - 00:05:21 | Speaker 4:

I'm doing well. How are you?

00:05:21 - 00:05:27 | Speaker 3:

Good. Shannon has not set a wedding date, and she's starting to get the hairy eyeball from people.

00:05:28 - 00:05:55 | Speaker 4:

Oh, Shannon, do not let them do that to you. I was engaged for three years before we got married. Really? Two before we even planned our wedding. Yeah, we were, I mean, we were young, so we wanted to finish school and kind of get our job started. But, yeah, we just did it our way. We were like, we'll get married when we get married. And we did not let people pressure us or push us into doing anything before we were ready to do it.

00:05:55 - 00:06:01 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, I feel like you tell people we're going to get married when we want to get married, and that's, like, not a good enough answer for them.

00:06:01 - 00:06:06 | Speaker 3:

Yeah, Kylie says that she also gets judged all the time. Hi, Kylie.

00:06:07 - 00:06:19 | Speaker 4:

Hi. Yeah, I'm a 2025 bride who's been engaged for over a year now, and I still get judged. It doesn't matter. You could get married tomorrow, and they're still going to judge you. Nothing's good enough for everybody.

00:06:20 - 00:06:21 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah.

00:06:21 - 00:06:25 | Speaker 3:

Do people question it because they doubt it, or what's the reasoning why people are so questioning?

00:06:27 - 00:06:56 | Speaker 4:

So, honestly, I've gotten a bunch of different – they're like, why wait so long? I'm like, well, we're paying for our own wedding. Everything's expensive nowadays. We're going to wait. And then they're like, well, don't you – well, what if he leaves by then? I'm like, man, he's been with me five years now. If he's going to leave, he was going to leave. Who would say that to you, by the way, too? If he's going to leave, isn't that a good thing before you get married? Right. You would think, but according to them, if you get married, that's going to keep them. If he's staying for that, I don't want to get married to him. Exactly.

00:06:57 - 00:06:58 | Speaker 3:

Thank you for the call.

00:06:59 - 00:06:59 | Speaker 4:

Absolutely.

00:07:00 - 00:07:03 | Speaker 3:

Oh, my God. We thought three years was long. Samantha?

00:07:04 - 00:07:05 | Speaker 4:

Hi.

00:07:05 - 00:07:07 | Speaker 3:

How long were you guys engaged?

00:07:08 - 00:07:39 | Speaker 5:

We were almost hitting seven years. Wow. Yeah. It was. What was the reason for you guys? well we were still kind of young we got engaged around 22 and i was still finishing college and he was doing his figuring out what he wanted to do college or apprenticeship so it just kept getting pushed back and then we wanted to get a house so it was just a long long wait were you concerned

00:07:39 - 00:07:46 | Speaker 2:

by like the fifth or sixth year or were you just it would happen whenever it happened uh no

00:07:46 - 00:07:56 | Speaker 5:

So that's one good thing about him is that there's never any doubt about it. It was just, we're young, weddings are expensive, and houses are better.

00:07:56 - 00:08:01 | Speaker 3:

Here's a question, because I understand. Houses are better.

00:08:02 - 00:08:04 | Speaker 1:

I mean, a house is a lifetime. A wedding is a day.

00:08:05 - 00:08:07 | Speaker 3:

Yours is kind of a house issue, right, isn't it? Yes. You're trying to. Yes.

00:08:07 - 00:08:34 | Speaker 1:

So Wes just sold his home on the east side, and our plan is to use the money from the sale of his home to do some things to my house that are going to make it more comfortable for all six of us to be in the home that I'm currently living in with the kids. And so we kind of really want, well, not kind of, we want all of that stuff to be done and settled before, you know, we throw everybody under the same roof. And it wouldn't be fair to the kids if all of a sudden

00:08:34 - 00:08:40 | Speaker 3:

you just mash them all into a place that doesn't fit them, right? Yeah. I mean, our, my, my house

00:08:40 - 00:08:48 | Speaker 1:

would fit everybody, but you know, there are certain things that we, we just, we want to do to make it more comfortable for everybody. And we want that to be done. We don't want to have to live through that with everybody.

00:08:49 - 00:09:02 | Speaker 3:

Somebody on the phone who is engaged for like a crazy long period of time, we're going to talk to them in just one second. But first, here's a good thing that you could say of why you're not walking down the aisle and married yet. Devin?

00:09:03 - 00:09:04 | Speaker 6:

Hi, good morning.

00:09:05 - 00:09:08 | Speaker 3:

Hi. Why is it okay to wait and not run down the aisle?

00:09:10 - 00:09:37 | Speaker 6:

It's completely okay to wait because if you're waiting for, you know because you want to good for you enjoy that time that's what i thought i was going to do and then i realized nine months later that i don't want to marry this person um they're a terrible person and they did some unforgettable speakable things and are now in prison and i could have i could have married that person so it's okay to wait it's okay to wait because you never know

00:09:37 - 00:09:58 | Speaker 3:

west might end up in prison for what though would it be though yeah i think i think your case is different i think you know i was no megan wants to know what what it was that this person did that oh no no i meant less but oh okay all right um how about this for an engagement listen to danielle danielle how long of an engagement

00:10:00 - 00:10:01 | Speaker 5:

Oh, my God.

00:10:02 - 00:10:03 | Speaker 5:

Oh, my goodness.

00:10:04 - 00:10:05 | Speaker 4:

Aren't you already married at that point?

00:10:05 - 00:10:24 | Speaker 5:

Yeah. Pretty much. Yeah. We have a house. We have two kids. Are you guys ever going to get married, or are you just going to stay engaged? Like, that's your thing? I don't know. Finances, I don't know. It's expensive to get married. Yeah. And now it's like 19 years. We pretty much are married. Aren't you already married? Now it's your thing.

00:10:24 - 00:10:25 | Speaker 4:

I think.

00:10:25 - 00:10:29 | Speaker 5:

Do you want to get married, or at this point is it just... I do want to get married. Okay.

00:10:29 - 00:10:48 | Speaker 4:

What if we marry you? Can Mojo marry you? Yeah, we'll marry you right now. Put him on the phone. By the way, at this point right now, can you put on a tuxedo and a white dress and go get married like that? Have you been together for 19 years and you already know every deep, dark secret about each other?

00:10:49 - 00:10:56 | Speaker 5:

Yeah, we could. But why not take a vacation and elope together? Are you talking to me or her? Yeah, we've talked about that.

00:10:56 - 00:10:58 | Speaker 4:

Both. You guys, why don't you have a double wedding with Shannon?

00:10:59 - 00:10:59 | Speaker 5:

00:11:00 - 00:11:03 | Speaker 4:

And the prison couple. Let's get the prison couple.

00:11:03 - 00:11:07 | Speaker 5:

I mean, that would be like one hell of a one. Do you guys know who the Moonies are?

00:11:08 - 00:11:10 | Speaker 4:

Isn't that like a religious group or something?

00:11:11 - 00:11:30 | Speaker 5:

It is. It is. And they do those mass weddings. We should do that with everybody who's been engaged like five years or longer listening right now with Shannon. And we just put you like in LCA. Mojo will be up on stage. We'll do a mass wedding for all of our listeners. I just said I want it to be small and intimate. Absolutely not. Same thing.
