Marriage Expectations vs. Reality: Building Our Union, Not Just a Wedding

In this episode of Flirting & Farting with The Shallahs, we peel back the curtain on marriage expectations versus reality — from our untraditional wedding to the daily choices that keep our love alive.

We share why we chose an intimate, budget-friendly garden wedding, went Dutch for dinner, and focused on investing in our marriage, not just the wedding day. From pre-marital counseling to navigating gender roles and solo dates after kids, this is the honest conversation about what it really takes to build and sustain a marriage beyond the altar.

We get real about the challenges of staying connected in busy seasons, the importance of communicating needs as parents, and how to create space for both partnership and individuality. Whether you’re preparing for marriage, newly married, or deep in the trenches of parenthood, this episode is packed with insights, laughter, and love.

Join the journey — build with us, laugh with us, love with us.
