This is how it started.... two lonely single loud and ranting comics met. They swore they'd never date within the "inner circle" but fate stepped in a year later after a great friendship had started and from their first date "They knew they were in trouble because they were hopelessly in love and bound for the alter!" But what would become of their acts? Kerri and Ron found a partnership but they had to keep their love a secret because it just didn't work with Kerri's act about her southern mother who's obsessed with her only daughter getting married. When Kerri brought Ron home the first time her Mom threw a huge party.... for Ron...they weren't even engaged, people said "We're so happy for your...um…dating! Praise God for our prayers!"
Ron stuck it out and brought his "blonde princess " to his Korean family and told her to "sit on the floor and eat what they give you" He would play jokes and tell her to do silly stuff in the "name of his culture". The families threw their hands up and rejoiced in this wacky union.
One night while Kerri was on stage doing a joke about Patrick Swayze being her dream man so she could do "the lift" at her wedding...Suddenly the theme song from "Dirty Dancing" came on and Ron hit the stage on one knee with a beautiful proposal and her grandmother's 1927 diamond ring. In true form he grabbed the mike and said "Well I just thought I'd show up and force Kerri to write a whole new act!"
Kerri and Ron began the planning of their Wedding Hollywood Premier Party Extravaganza on the budget of two broke comics. Their parents gave them money but they strategized the more they saved the more they would have for important things like rent and food! So they went to work bargaining and calling in every favor they could for their wacky nuptials. They wanted their "intimate' 300 person wedding to reflect their personalities and for people to walk away saying "That was the best party I've ever been too!" Much to the dismay of their mothers they fired their first wedding planner because she was "too fancy" for their tastes and didn't like the idea of celebrity impersonators, red carpet...Krispy Creme wedding cake, Chocolate fountain and a color scheme that simply said "MORE IS MORE" Ron said "if we could have dancing flamingos we would! Our impersonators may not be good but they're FREE!"
Well the day came and everything went off without a hitch. The ceremony was beautiful and everyone loved the entire event. The Krispy Crème Cake was a big hit and Kerri and Ron danced to "Time of My Life" from Dirty Dancing. Afterwards they headed off to Hawaii for some much-needed R and R.
On their honeymoon the two perfected the art of five star travel on a 2 star budget by visiting several time share tours to get the free dining dollars. One tour guide even gave them $100 cash to sit through the boring tour. They visited the finest hotels and hung out with the fancy people trying their best to blend in. They ate the buffets and shared their common love of sleeping and then eating some more. Kerri and Ron are not what you would call active travelers preferring instead to basically lay around and do nothing on vacations. It's how they bond.
When they returned home they were very blessed to move into their very own place together that they had purchased. Kerri and Ron had big ideas on what needed to be done and absolutely no budget or skills whatsoever. It's been an adventure so far and Ron gives it his best shot to appear like he has a clue what he's doing. Kerri is very good at directing and delegating tasks. She is also good at doing her nails.
These two continue to run around the country telling jokes on TV and at shows and now they have even more material to talk about. Their neighbors call their place the "fun house" because of its eclectic style and wild color scheme. These two decided, "More is More" when it comes to theme rooms and color so that is exactly how they decorated.
Now they have to continue on the adventure of home improvement and adulthood. Maybe Kerri will learn to cook?
