Grace shares her much fun she and her girlfriend, Lizzy, had at Ana’s wedding. She compares and contrasts Ana’s Armenian wedding to the other “boring White weddings” she’s been to. Maz Jobrani mentions his non-traditional Persian-Indian destination wedding in Mexico. Ana shares her feelings about being the non-traditional Armenian bride.

  1. My family had a wedding custom called a shivaree. I have no idea what ethnic background that came from. Its pretty rude, you go to the bride and groom on the wedding night, make a bunch of noise outside and “steal” the groom for the night.

  2. I don’t know about Maz using “white” to mean boring and lacking culture. I imagine all sorts of, say, Euoprean-based cultures (Polish, German, etc.) can throw some nice shindigs. I’m Cajun, and um, well, we definitely know how to have a good time lol A boring wedding is a boring wedding; I don’t think it has anything to do with heritage but more so to do with the imagination (or lack thereof) of the wedding party. (Cause yeah I’ve been to some real duds.)

  3. Ana, I think it’s clear how happy you are now that you’ve had your wedding! And no more planning, yay! Many many congratulations from all of us members <3

  4. I don’t think if I ever got married I’d drink or have my groom drink too much. Plenty of opportunities to do that later, but not really fun to be drunk on your wedding and not remember it or too drunk/hung over on wedding night and the next day.

  5. Of course you’re a good person Ana! You’re one of my heroes. Beautiful, so reasonable, incredibly intelligent, and very knowledgeable.

  6. Excellent PG! Congrats Ana on the wedding!! Can’t wait to hear Cenks take on it, another PG about food please. :)

  7. Just got married myself Sept. 11th. It is crazy/stressful planning a wedding. Congrats on your wedding. BTW, it’s not about all white weddings ending at 10pm. Some venues don’t allow you to go past 10pm. We had no choice. :P

  8. Congratulations to Ana!

    And I can not stop myself from saying that Ana is beautiful. I am a sexist since I am not saying that Hasan is also a beauty, though he is, when he is on the show. My only excuse is that I am not trying to treat Ana’s looks as a totality of her person, because I like her otherwise (even though I sometimes critique her).

  9. Ana, trolls bother you because you are good at what you do. They know the effect you are having on people and they don’t like it and they are trying to stop you. Worry about you, Christian and all your fans that love you.

    1. true dat. It always makes me sad that the trolls go after Ana. It seems random trolls bother women a lot more than men. I hope Ana knows the vast majority of us think she is doing a great job.

  10. Ana, please dont let those handful of TROLLS dictate how you are with us adoring fans! I am homebound like a prisoner, disabled since childhood (talk about finding out who your “true family & friends” are, or lack there-of!) and can only live life thru ppl like you showing me. Living only 2 hrs from tonights TYT on Fusion show was heartbreaking, as I miss every lifetime experience that comes my way. I am glad to see you happy, and please keep us die hard fans in mind when the Troll obsession wants to take over! Congrats!

    1. Bernice, you have some beautiful words there, and I just wanted to send my love ur way from a fellow disabled fella from the other side of the world. I am so thankful that my disability doesn’t completely dictate my lifestyle, I couldn’t imagine it. It is so sweet that you can find your out through TYT, and I’m super glad its them and not a show like Hannity or O’Reilly lol. Much love and peace to u :)

  11. thank you all as always . CONGRATS to Anna, may you and Christian gaze into each others loving eyes for the rest of your,long, healthy, brilliant, fruitful ,satisfying,life adventure together. May you hold each other up as equal partners and lift each other up ,when you fall, and when you live in the weird world of success,
    We luv you Anna for making the air waves more honest, for expanding the greatest rebellious tradition in the history of the world ,since it was named: journalism . your 1 of my favorite journalists :) n I’m old biatch! so happy for you hope your honeymoon is magical ( I’m old n i don’t do social media ) so this is all i got
