Here Comes the Drama with Christa Innis

38: Venmo Requests, Demanding In-Laws & A Bride’s Outrageous Ask


Listen Later

What’s worse: your dad bailing on your wedding and then sending you a Venmo request for the deposit, or your mother-in-law going on vacation with his ex?

Yeah… welcome to this week’s chaos. I’m kicking things off with a brand new game: red flag vs. green flag wedding edition. Spoiler alert, locking up guest phones? HARD no. Then I’m diving headfirst into one of the messiest three-wedding family sagas you’ve ever heard. We’re talking divorces, mistresses, and family photos that should’ve come with a seating chart and a referee.

And of course, I wrap it up with your confessions, the kind that remind us all that where there’s a wedding, there’s always, always drama.

My new book Here Comes the Drama: A Ferris and Sloan Story is live!
