- Bethenny Ever After: Season 2
I was in stitches watching Bethenny takes her CPR class on this week's episode. As a former babysitter (yes, I was, that's how I made money in junior high and high school) I knew what she was going through all too well. One never ever wants to use what they've learned, and (being a former boy scout) one always wants to be prepared. So I was happy to see she was learning, although I am surprised she didn't ask me to join in on the class.
I have to give kudos to both Julie and Max! Having worked with both of them on the wedding I have no doubt they took control of the situation for Bethenny and Jason during this exciting and scary time. While Jason was calling his buddies and Bethenny was multitasking and trying to give orders, it was refreshing to see Julie step in and take control of the situation. She is one of the most level-headed women I have met. She is there to get the job done and quite frankly she doesn't care about the fluff. She puts Bethenny and Jason's needs 100% before her own. She always has their best interest in mind. Without her I think Bethenny and Jason would still be trying to pack to head to the hospital. Her focus puts mine to shame! Seriously without her, Cookie would have been left to get the nursery in order. Now that's something I want to see!
And Max - what can we say about Max? He is by far one of the kindest people I have ever met. He is hard worker who aims to please. When Julie asked Max to go pick up the bassinet and underwear I nearly fell on the floor laughing! That poor guy gets put in some of the most crazy situations, and I thought helping Bethenny pee in a bucket took the cake! You try purchasing post-prego panties for your boss! I can't even imagine what that poor guy was thinking when he was at the salon. In a way it was an uphill battle, he was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. You can see when talking with Bethenny he is a true gentleman trying to navigate his way through bachelorhood. There's an innocence about him that makes him charming. I know someday he is going to find the right lady. In a way, I see Max as a young Jason. I have no doubt that he too will make a great husband and father in the near future and I wish him all the best and success in the world!
I think we all should give Jason a standing ovation! Seriously, could he be more supportive, proud and happy to call Bethenny his wife? He went above and beyond for her; sitting by her side coaxing and encouraging her. And you could tell that if he could have taken her pain away, he would have. I know he was just doing his job as a husband and father to be, but there was something about it ... he was a peacock, protective and proud.
Shawn your blog was so sweet and I am so glad that you heard from Bethenny after Bryn was born. What an exciting time for them. I am wishing them and you a life time of happiness. I want to say again that the wedding was absolutely beautiful.
Shawn, I wasn't quite sure what to think of you on this show. But after watching, I found out you are a wonderful wedding planner. And after reading your blogs, you have a wonderful gift with words. Well done Shawn!
Shawn: After reading your blog I said to myself I love this guy. The wedding was just beautiful you did a great job.
Shawn:
You simply are such a sweet gentleman, your blog is beautifully written and so heartfelt. Tenderness oozes from your pores and your comments about the new parents are so sweet. God bless you.
This episode culminated in the birth of little Bryn. This is all so beautiful and I feel honored to have watched it. Love to the parents, Julie and Max for their roles of assistants extraordinaire. Watching little Bryn will be fun filled as the changes will be so joyful.
signed: So Pleased With the Outcome
i love youuuu you are the best i agree with everyone wanting y9u to have your own show full of bridezillas - your eyes would be frantic! hahah seriously you are efficient smart witty funny cool patient and im chaotic so i admire and laugh with you and lets be friend please i love youuuu!!!!!!!!!!! im female in case u were excited, sorry. love love love u sweetie!!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxo
Such a sweet blog. Thank you. I wish I could hire you for my wedding planner -- actually, for ANY job -- but Washington's a little too far away :)
I hope you get on some other reality show, you're enjoyable to watch.
you did such a great job! you dealt with Bethenny with the utmost respect and patience. I hope you get tons of jobs from the episodes you were featured. great job Shawn...........you must be so proud. Take Care, JJ
Shawn, You are truly an amazing person. Love your blog. I hope Bravo gives you your own show. You did an unbelievable, beautiful wedding for Bethenny and Jason. You deserve all the best.
Shawn, I cannot tell you how much I LOVE YOU. Your "wicked" sense of humor when it came to that damn MAD dog, Cookie ASA CUJO, I have watched your remarks about the dog over and over, and laugh harder everytime. When you said you call Cookie Cujo, and then with that straight face you 'put on', your remark, " I don't like that bitch"...has to be one of the funniest of the entire show. You just "roll your eyes" and try to get along with that dogzilla, but Cookie will never change, and with the new baby, knowing she is NO LONGER FIRST in Bethenney's life, Jason and Bethenney are going to really have to consider whether it will be safe to keep CUJO around. Bethenney may love her, but as many shows as I have seen, this dog is not likable by anyone. I just don't think she needs to be around the new baby. Also, on the wedding, you did the most wonderful job, and knowing Bethenney had no one to walk her down the aisle, you were RIGHT THERE FOR HER EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. You went OVER AND BEYOND THE DUTIES OF A WEDDING PLANNER. You became a true life time friend for Bethenney...I just hope she realizes ALL this and continues to allow you to be part of her new life with Jason and the new baby girl. You are the "greatness" of the meaning of a true gay man, who is ALWAYS A GIRL'S BEST GIRLFRIEND!!!! I had a friend like you a few years ago, and he was the best girlfriend I EVER HAD. Sadly he passed about 2 years ago, but he will always be remembered in my heart as my one true friend. I loved him dearly. I hope this show brings you GREAT SUCCESS, because you truely deserve it. Good luck for all the future has planned for you!!! Love ya, Becky, a friend from Texas
Dear Shawn, as always you are so generous with the compliments. You really don't seem to have a mean bone in your body. Seeing the good and acting positive will take you along way in life. I am sure that is why you have such a great personal life. Being gracious makes people want to be around you . Whether it is family or friends, how we treat people impacts the strength of our relationships. My guess is there is a large team Shawn system. You reap what you sow Shawn. Sow love and friendship and you will have an abundant harvest always.
Shawn - you are sweet and funny and and strong and cynical and you were the perfect match for Bethenny.
My friends and I hope that you are involved in all of Bethenny and Jason's life events so that we can continue to see you on the show!
So nice to see you here. You really have such a genuine, kind way of expressing yourself. I love your blogs and hope to see more of them. When you were watching last night, were you afraid Cookie was going to bite the baby? :) Keep in touch, we love you Shawn!
Shawn you are such a sweetheart! Please tell me Bethenny is brining you back to do a baby shower, a "Welcome Home Bryn" party, a house warming, a baptism, a Simchat Bat...WHATEVER...just tell me you are coming back!!! You are a wonderful addition to the show and I love the relationship you and are having with Cookie. Maybe you could do a couples therapy with Cook's therapist!
It is refreshing to see a reality show that is about love and relationships with wonderful people. Although the drama is fun to watch...at the end of the day It is nice to be reminded that there are good people who don't need or want the drama. It is really nice to read your sweet, thoughtful blog.
YOU should have your own show on the style network,etc. I loved your responses and facial expression during the whole wedding planning fiasco..Priceless. I sooo loved your saying about you being like a swan, the feet are going crazy under the water where you don't see it and above the water you're as calm as can be!! Wonderful quote that I MUST use myself sometimes...Good luck in your endeavors and hope to see you on tv again.
Shawn are we gonna see a "Shawn Getting Married" or something similar, I would definitely watch. Love the blog.
Shawn, Bethenny was so lucky to find you. You are such a great human being. Everyone should be so lucky as to have someone like you in his/her life.
And you throw a mean wedding, too!
I hope Bravo can keep you in our lives somehow.
Hi Shawn! You are a talented man! Who on earth could pull off that wedding the way that you did? In four weeks, no less! It seems to me, by watching Bethenny since the first season of the Housewives, that once she's gotten to know someone on a "personal" level...like peeing in a bucket. She's their friend forever! So, looks like you may be stuck with her, and how great is that? She has a wit all her own! So do you, so you are able to keep up with her! You did such a great job for that wedding...even though your balls were in danger at times!! Hahaha!
You have great restraint. that dog is useless they had better be careful with it around the baby . it is completely untrained and spoiled. you are a good guy
Shawn, I just love you to pieces....your insight and humor brought me to stitches...I could not stop laughing. I truly believe that you could be a terrific friend to Bethenny and Jason. Hugs, Nana
Shawn, your blog is beautiful you should write a blog after every esp you clearly see everything Bethenny and Jason true fans see.Thank You
Shawn,
You did a great job. I loved you. You were so funny. Great flowers. I worked with the person who was doing the flowers for you. He is a great guy and a great floral designer.
Shawn, As the weeks went on through Bethanny's wedding I thought to myself, Bethanny and Jason were very lucky to have found you. She could have never pulled this off without you.
You truly are a gentleman, funny and most sincere. Good luck to you in the future. I hope to see you on Bravo with your own show. I would definetly tune in. Have a great summer!
Shawn, Love you! Love you! Love you! what a beautiful job you did. I think business will be booming for you for years to come. You accepted the challenge, outside of your comfort zone for many reasons, (time frame, tv) but you did it! BRAVO!
beautiful blog shawn. Such lovely sentiments. I also loved this episode and felt so happy for the Hoppy's.
What? You were a babysitter when you were a teenager??? You might born as a patinet person!!! I can see the quality in you through TV and the blog; patient, positive, & mellow!! LOVE YOU
You are a class act. I would love to see more of you on the show, even though your "tasks" have been successfully completed.
Truly enjoy you!
Thank you for being so positive! I hope to see you in the future on BGM? or your own show. Bethenny has surrounded herself with positive peopole and you are top of the list.

You are such a peach! I am in love!!! You are kind, considerate, (non-gossipy) and a very good friend. I so hope we see more of you on the show. Take care..we all love you and the wedding was spectacular!! If I ever get married again- I'm calling!!
Shawn love reading your blog. Miss you on BGM?. Still like other would like if you had a show of your own, Bravo would be complete with a wedding planner . I hope the surprise guest is you on the next WHWL .
DESCRIBED YOURSELF DEAR! YOu did such a good job describing Max & Julie as workers, yet you don'[t see how good at the same thing you are too! you put their needs above your own to o! I truely admired the way you took care of & helped Bethenny thru the entire Wedding chaos that could have turned into quite the 'fiasco'! you were level headed & quietly went about doing what you had to do. you were wonderful! I'm sure you will enjoy seeing baby Bryn, good luck & best wishes to you my dear man, you are on your way to fulfill YOUR dreams too! just know that.....
Shawn, You have such a way with words that it makes me smile and tear up at the same time! You are so kind and sincere and REAL!! I wish Bravo would make you stay in the show or get your own, you definitely deserve it!! Maybe you should think of writing your own book - your words are beautiful and from the heart!!! All the best in the future my friend:)
Shawn, you are a gift from God. How lucky that Bethenny picked you to "do" her wedding. It was breathtaking. What a kind a good friend you are.
Dear Shawn, I posted on Andy's blog my suggest of having you paired with Danny from HW of NJ! Having two completelty different guys on the show would be hilarious.Hope you make it to Andy's show.
You are adorable and I echo the other comment that Bravo should give you your own show. I'd definitely watch. You are a delight.
Very nicely written!I hope for much success in your future and maybe we will see you on Bravo some more in the future as well. God bless!
Sean, Yes, you definitely deserve your own show! I adore you. You did an excellent job on the wedding.... I mean... You assisted in collecting urine in a bucket! That's dedication. I tihnk you are adorable, sweet, and extremely talented. I can not wait to watch SEAN's SHOW, when Brave gives it to you :)
Shawn we want to see more of you. Please Bravo we want Shawn!! I dig your facial expressions and quips. You crack my husband and I up. I thought you did a great job with the wedding. I imagine you are quite busy with client events ect. but we adore you and are on the "WE WANT SHAWN BANDWAGON"
Dear Shawn, If Bethenney was smart what she should do is go big and have you plan a huge event featuring her "products". I think she has been signing stuff at the liquor store, but that seems so trashy. If she doesn't want to do this, then contact Jill. SHe is launching her bedpread line. She could use your help.Point is we want to see more of you!
Dear Shawn, Did you ever notice how people are so like their dogs? Cookie is just like Bethenny..looks cute, but you never know when you are going to get attacked. I always said it is the little yippy dogs that bite the most..like Bethenney. My Rottie is like me..does not bite..but has a presence that lets people know that if you cross the line, she will put you in your place. You seems like the lab type...loyalty first.
