In Episode 4 of Everybody Raved!, hosts Scott Hall and Austin Syms kick things off by breaking down Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s $50-million, “rent-all-of-Venice” wedding. A rapid-fire “Wedding Traditions—Keep, Retire, or Modernize?” segment follows, where Austin defends the bouquet toss and Scott buries the garter toss. Planner-designer Alexis Doktor joins to bust the “day-of coordinator” myth, explain why event-management packages save sanity, and share how she and a caterer rebuilt a four-tier cake minutes before showtime.
