00:09How are you?

00:10I am good.

00:11Excited to be here.

00:12Sorry, as you started talking, then I looked at your hand and I was like, oh, ring.

00:16Hello.

00:17I know.

00:18Every now and then I look down and then I'm like, oh, I'm engaged.

00:20This man.

00:21He did it all on his own.

00:22Did you tell him what you kind of wanted?

00:24Well, as a joke, years ago, like when we first started dating because we were both like pretty

00:28sure in the beginning, I sent him just a bunch of like big old rings kind of messing

00:33with him and he combined them.

00:35Congratulations.

00:36I'm so happy for you.

00:37We were talking about this a little bit at the airport because we rode up here together,

00:41but you were saying you haven't like totally got into planning.

00:44We haven't.

00:45Yeah.

00:46But like slowly starting to.

00:47Do you think you want something big, something small?

00:48I think it's going to be small.

00:50I think we have talked about this much.

00:53This is as much planning as we have done.

00:54We have said everything else is a big old to do.

00:58We just want this to be about what it's supposed to be about and have our friends and family

01:02there and just really enjoy that moment.

01:17on how much we have to drink.

01:18We'll see.

01:19I mean, I definitely probably will have like a jazz band from New Orleans, something like

01:26that.

01:28We'll definitely probably ride off on horses or ride in on a horse or ride in on a horse,

01:34maybe in on a carriage off on a horse.

01:36I like this.

01:37Is it been weird saying fiance whenever you're talking about duck?

02:00And that was really kind of it.

02:01So I cannot believe I'm getting to sit on the stage.

02:15Well, have you spent much time with him?

02:16I've only also like spent probably like 15 minutes with him.

02:18I was playing a show with him out in Colorado.

02:21And he invited me up on the bus and it did feel like I had known him forever.

02:25Really?

02:26Yeah.

02:32Do you have any plans made or are you like, let's just get there and figure it out?

02:35Girl, I'm getting old.

02:36I'm getting old.

02:37You're not getting old.

02:38No, honestly, my 30s have been a lot better than my 20s.

02:40Isn't that so true?

02:42Everyone says that.

02:43They're like, you turn 30 and everything changes.

02:44And you're like, what?

02:45Goodbye.
