I thought the strippers were disgusting, too. I would have been so uncomfortable in that environment, especially with the male stripper apparently simulating sex on the lap of one of the brides. And the female strippers looked like they had been “rode hard and put away wet” to quote one of my good friends.

The TV Guide entry for tonight's episode says EIGHT singles instead of ten. I'm wondering if the bride who thinks her match is not her type has bailed? They are in the promo clip for the wedding day, so who else could it be? Perhaps another issue for one of the cast forced them to bow out? I think Kare should go through with it. being able to show emotion is not a bad thing and Miles seems like a sweetheart and one of the best guys this season.

I don't think it means anything. The summary for next week's episode says, "For the first time in the show's history, one couple already know each other; 10 stranger spouses celebrate saying 'I do' and spend their first night together as husband and wife."
I'd guess that it's just a matter of them holding one wedding over until next week's episode, possibly Bennett and Amelia, since it looks like (based on the previews) that they know each other. Tonight's episode probably ends with that revelation and then we're meant to believe that they might not go through with the wedding. The showrunners love faux cliffhangers and deceptive editing.

I have only seen the first episode so far, and already can't stand Brett. He's so icky!! The poor girl who ends up with him; I really feel for her. She's the nurse, isn't she? He was not attractive in any sense even before the bachelor party and his drunk antics. Did they ever address where he went to at the end of the night? The other guys were funny, sitting out on the porch! lol
Miles is adorable, and seems so genuine. It made me so sad to hear his almost-wife say such negative things about him, and act like she didn't want to give it a chance. He's so sincere and he'll likely be very reassuring to her, so I hope she goes through with it. And doesn't hurt him! His friend Woody seems fun and nice, but all those red flags about him not being ready were kept in the show for a reason, I bet.
The quirky couple, wow. They are really quirky people!!!! I can't get over her hairy armpits in that dress. Then her earrings in the preview, on wedding day? yikes. I do hope they work out, though, and can appreciate each other's weirdnesses. I guess the show had success with their last nerdy couple, so were willing to try it again.
I hope the second episode is onDemand tomorrow.

I’m glad Karen gave Miles a chance. I didn’t even mind his friend Woody last night.
The one girl with the cats was funny too. She reminds me of Amber though I have a crush on my husband. I keep mixing up the 2 ladies with long dark hair.
Bennett seems very laid back . Sitting on the bed with his friends with not a care in the world...lol Loved his mom coming in talking about his socks and hair. Yes the hairy arm pits, birds nest on her head was strange not to mention what the heck were her bridesmaids wearing. Wonder how they know each other?
Ready for the drama too come out...it always does.

Both Amelia and Bennett seemed a lot like their moms. The nuts didn't fall far from the tree.

I read that MAFS Fan told which 3 couple stay together? Did anyone see who they are? Yes they said the following: {Spoiler} Miles and Karen and Amani and Woody stay together at decision day. Olivia and Brett get divorced by decision day.
Not shocked at the last one.

Olivia was very personable and really gave Brett more credit than he likely deserves, on their wedding day. He did seem to rein it in a bit, but when his brother said he always has a sarcastic reply to everything, she did give him a look, like she's already seen that. Poor girl. She and her cats are in for it.
Woody and Amani were cute together! She does seem like she's got enough to be a good partner to him, being outgoing too, bold enough, etc. I hope he doesn't hurt her, since she's been cheated on so often in the past. I like the two of them together, so far, and I really like Miles. Karen's growing on me too after she gave Miles a chance.
Anxiety girl, the princess bride (can't remember her name), looks like she's going to be a nightmare next week. And she's marrying the super passive guy, so I'm thinking he's in for some trouble. I don't think I'll enjoy watching that relationship at all.
Oh my gosh, the birds nest on the head, all the armpit hair, the large macramé fringe earrings = Amelia is out there! Her expressions at the wedding were so extreme, too, with her mouth WIDE open. I couldn't understand the fringed bridesmaids with one of them on a unicycle, giggling their way down the aisle. Some attendees were in masquerade masks too. Lots of bizarre things, including the moms, but since Bennett's mom is quirky too, maybe he won't see Amelia as that weird. I wonder what happened between them when they met before? He seems like a nice guy, and I hope she can ... I don't know, chill a bit? Not sure what I mean, because "come down to Earth" doesn't sound very nice.

MAFSfan also posted about Amelia and Bennett knowing one another {Spoiler} They have a mutual friend.
That’s all that was said- so nothing that crazy.

Okay, I'm only partway through the episode, but I'll say right now that if Amelia and Bennett get divorced, I will be SO sad. They're so incredibly sweet together.
OTOH, Henry and Christina are kind of a disaster. He's lovely, but clearly is not right with her. Unless he opens up and becomes more confident, I think it's doomed.
I guess we'll know soon who stays together - whenever MAFS Fan posts her spoilers!

I thought Olivia looked so sad on Unfiltered last night. At one point, she looked like she wanted to cry. She looked lovely, by the way. And Amani looked sooo happy!

Wow, so much awkwardness between Henry and Christina. He looked so uncomfortable. He clearly didn't know what to say to her. I felt really bad for him though when Christina first called him by the wrong name and then forgot his name altogether. Not an auspicious beginning.
Bennett and Amelia did not disappoint when they "met". They seemed to click as well as I hoped they would. How wild they've already met, and that it was not under bad circumstances, just not the right timing for them. Bennett sounded infatuated when he described her earrings and then called the bird on her head "nuts". I think he didn't mean it in a disparaging way at all.
Karen and Miles had a better start than it seemed might happen from before the wedding.
One of my favorite scenes from last night was the one with Woody and his new fathers-in-law. The genuine joy he had that his new wife was so loved by two fathers was so sweet. How great that he gains in his life not one but two men who seem to be great fathers.

So far so good with most of them.
Henry really is awkward she has to do all the talking it seems. It looks like he is game for things though by watching next weeks previews.
Bennett wears a dress to bed....lol. They are pretty weird . There clothes are definitely different.
Glad Karen is opening up to Miles. Loved her braids. What is with Woody and his wife interrupting their wedding night....lol
Forgot Olivia was a nurse. I don’t like the suit cases on the bed either, his suitcase was pretty old..lol

Not a spoiler! Danielle told Bobby they were having a boy on last night's Couples Cam.
We're already a few weeks in and I think it's pretty clear already that Henry and Christina are not a match. It's genuinely painful to watch their interactions. I have to wonder about Henry having a group of attractive women as friends....and yet none of them want to date him. Seems like that's saying something.
Could Bennett and Amelia be any more made for each other? They look like a matched pair.
Brett seems to be behaving like a good guy so far, but we know that's going to change, based on the previews. Poor Olivia.
I'm always amazed at the horrible things the family members say to the new spouses about their family member at the breakfast/brunch after the wedding Yeah, Woody's mom, Amani really needs to know that her new hubby is a rage monster! Was there a less dramatic way to talk about that? OR, maybe just let Woody discuss that with his new wife in his own time.

I was thinking that too, Critical. I have been surprised at Henry's dad who seems to be saying a lot of stuff I would be embarrassed if my dad went around saying. I don't understand why they want to give a bad impression to the new spouses. I can't believe they do that at all much less on a show for the viewing audience to hear, not just the spouses.

I tend to believe there is alcohol involved during those family visits and that filming goes on for hours.
I find it interesting that we're watching Christina not asking Henry any personal questions or showing curiosity about his life.

The genuine joy he had that his new wife was so loved by two fathers was so sweet. How great that he gains in his life not one but two men who seem to be great fathers.I loved that part too! Those men were mature enough to not only attend their daughter's wedding together, but get along well enough to chat with her new husband and be supportive. Lots of divorced people could learn from those two. Hopefully, Woody matures a bit too. I like him a lot, though, and it seems he and his wife get along really well (so far). The other scene I found funny was when Amelia's friends with their weird fringe headgear, asked Bennett if the armpit hair bothered him. He hadn't even noticed! And then said it was good, it was empowering or something like that. Good for him, although I do feel a little bad for him in a way. I don't want him to get hurt, and sometimes she comes off so flighty that I'm afraid she'll lose interest in this "experiment." I still can't get over her wide open mouth and giggling all the time. It makes her look dumb, and she's a doctor so she's clearly a smart person. I really like Miles a lot. And I really dislike Christina a lot - wow, what a spoiled brat she can be. Henry seems a little "off" to me, so far, too. Those girls that were his friends, were too much, and didn't he say he doesn't have many friends? Something's just weird about him, and considering how nervous he was, I can't see these two making it.

Oh my word, Bennett's sleep dress was just too funny!!! When he pulled it up around his knees, there was a wet spot on it too!! Ahhhh!!! Then he sat like a carrot for awhile. All the in-laws brunches seemed to go pretty well, despite the show teasing big conflicts and drama. Brett did okay at that meeting, but I can't see him holding it together for much longer; I think we'll see his bad side again soon. Yep, poor Olivia. Is it just me or does anyone else need subtitles with Woody? Was he complaining about Amani talking about not having sex? I couldn't make out what he was saying.
