In this episode of "Married With The Richards," Reese and Amber dive into the their wedding story. They talk about if they were to have a wedding today, what they would do different knowing what they know today and because of their relationship with God. "If we planned a marriage as much as we planned a wedding, then we would have a great marriage."

They shared their exciting baptism story, out in West Monroe, LA in 2015. Long time family friend Gordon Dasher baptized them in the Ouachita River and they had Jan Dasher and Phil and Kay Robertson (from Duck Dynasty) as witnesses. If you loved hearing this part of their story and would like to hear Gordon's take on it, go checkout that podcast episode over at The Bearded Outdoors Podcast.

They also dove into the subject of having a good time without alcohol. Reese and Amber both grew up around alcohol and both began drinking at an early age. They even met in a bar at 19 years old, drinking under age. It was a huge part of their life and everything they did, and they didn't know how to have fun without it. Hear how they began to learn that you can actually have parties and even have fun at parties without a drink in your hand.
