Welcome back to Weddings-ish with Jove!

This week, Jove is joined by not one but two special guests, content creator and actor Benton McClintock and his husband Tom Prior. From a fated fashion week party meet-cute to a cross-country proposal in Montana and a spontaneous New York City Hall wedding, their story is the definition of modern romance.

Benton and Tom open up about how they fell in love at first sight (and first flirt), what it’s like to navigate a long-distance relationship across continents, and the deeper connection they found through sobriety and shared creativity. The pair also dive into their viral engagement video, their hilariously relatable City Hall wedding, and their dream of one day hosting an intimate celebration in Italy.

Episode Highlights: - Their chaotic and cinematic meet-cute during Fashion Week - Falling in love (and saying “I love you”) just two days into their London trip - How sobriety shaped their relationship from day one - Tom’s surprise proposal in the mountains of Montana - The 77-second City Hall ceremony

This week, Jove sits down with the wildly creative bridal designer (and recent bride!) Madison Chamberlain, whose colorful, textured, and joy-filled designs are redefining what it means to be a bride.
