  • Thanks so much for coming.

  • Thank you so much for having me.

  • Are you meet at Megan's party.

  • The weather's getting warmer.

  • The days are getting longer.

  • The flowers are in full bloom.

  • Yep.

  • You know what that means.

  • It's time to dust off those dancing shoes, folks, wedding season has officially arrived.

  • How do you know the grooms?

  • It's a funny story.

  • The last party I just saw, I'm here for seven.

  • And with it, the oft coveted, the hallowed, the revered plus one.

  • Love the shoes, girls.

  • Going on now, especially in the month of June, we all love to celebrate love, but attending a big shindig with a sea full of strangers isn't everyone's cup of tea.

  • It's true.

  • Being invited to be a plus one can offer a lot of upside.

  • Free cake, free booze, a conga line, say less.

  • But it's also a role that can carry a lot of responsibility.

  • When you get invited to an event that not anyone can be invited to, I think it's a big deal.
