00:00A Florida couple invites all of these wedding guests to their wedding at a mansion in South Florida.
00:09Great venue.
00:10This, I know the area, too.
00:12This is Southwest Ranches.
00:17And, in fact, this is a little-known story, but BJ and I, we almost moved to Miami.
00:24During the MJ and BJ morning show, we almost moved to Miami to base out of Y100.
00:32Yeah, that's probably the best thing for the morning show.
00:34That was a very late MJ-BJ day.
00:36I remember that.
00:37We actually, we were in some negotiations.
00:39We flew down.
00:41So we were going to move to Miami, become the morning show on Y100 and FLZ.
00:46That would have been nice.
00:47Yeah.
00:47And we were talking about it.
00:49South Beach, man.
00:50And, actually, Southwest Ranches is a place where I would have probably looked, because there's a lot of land out there.
00:56It's not on the water at all.
00:58No, no, it's not.
00:58It's inland.
00:59Especially it would have been Mr. 305.
01:01Here's the deal.
01:01Florida couple, they wanted to have their dream wedding on the grounds of this multimillion-dollar mansion.
01:09Tennis court, gazebo, pool with a waterfall, a grotto, 16,300 square feet.
01:17So people start showing up, the caterers, the tents, everything is showing up to this mansion.
01:22The place is gorgeous.
01:23This house is ridiculous.
01:24The place is, it looks like a resort hotel.
01:26The house is, and it's for sale for like $5.6 million.
01:30That seems like a bargain for this house that I'm looking at.
01:33It's a lot of money, but I'm looking at the house, and this thing looks like it's more expensive than that.
01:37So everyone starts showing up for the wedding, and the guy who's living there, he's like, what the hell is going on here?
01:47The house is for sale right now, and apparently the owner is the son of a guy that was early investor in IHOP, in the International House of Pancakes.
01:59They're going to say the iPod or something.
02:01This is IHOP money.
02:04This is pancake dough right here.
02:06Dude, all the boysenberry you want.
02:08Exactly.
02:10Sucka.
02:11Absolutely.
02:12So all these people start showing up to this resort-looking house for the wedding, and the guy's like, there's no wedding here.
02:19Get off my property.
02:20He has to call the cops.
02:23I mean, talk about the cojones here.
02:26When you see a place you like.
02:27Courtney Wilson and Shanita Jones had invited their whole family and friends to the wedding at this dream home and estate, and it turns out it's not theirs.
02:38They didn't rent it.
02:41It's not a wedding venue.
02:44It's got a bowling alley, 15 bathrooms, home theater, 800-square-foot bar.
02:49Wow, bowling alley.
02:50That's worth the break in right there.
02:52It's amazing.
02:53In their online wedding invitation, Wilson and Jones referred to themselves as the royal couple and promised a reception that featured red carpet cocktail hour on Saturday, followed by brunch on Sunday.
03:04When Wilson showed up to set up the Saturday morning deal, the homeowner said, you don't have permission to have a wedding here.
03:11And sends him away.
03:13Then they won't leave.
03:15He had to call 911.
03:16911, they kept harassing me, calling me, said they have a wedding here, and it's God's message.
03:23No.
03:24When officers arrived, they instructed Wilson, get out, leave.
03:27And he complied.
03:29And then the Sun Sentinel, the newspaper down at Fort Lauderdale, they tried to interview him.
03:34He said, I don't want to talk about it.
03:37I don't know God, but I would imagine he'd be too busy to be dealing with this mess.
03:40Yeah, the owner of the place, the guy's name is Finkel.
03:44Never trust a Finkel.
03:46The guy's name is Finkel, and his father was Nathan Finkel, and his dad was like one of the early investors in IHOP.
03:57That's a nice investment.
03:59We've got to do this.
04:00When you finally get...
04:02Engaged?
04:03We are.
04:03We have been married.
04:04When you finally get married, when you finally decide to get married, we just got to find some house and just show up, and we're having a wedding there.
04:12Let's find some...
04:13Derek Jeter's house.
04:14Let's just show up.
04:15By the way, that deal should close soon.
04:17Good, it'll be empty.
04:18You know, Derek Jeter's house allegedly has been sold.
04:22Or that place that looks like Busch Gardens off of Busch...
04:26That's Patel.
04:27That's Patel.
04:28That's Kieran Patel's place.
04:29Okay, let's do a wedding there.
04:31I'm looking at the inside of this mansion.
04:33It looks like he took the light fixtures from an IHOP.
04:36Look at this cheesy stained glass feature.
04:39Oh, man.
04:40But can you imagine?
04:41But this couple, the word is they're kind of weird and cultish.
04:46Just strange.
04:47Like the Eyes Wide Shut house?
04:49This is just weird.
04:51And it's God's message for them to be there?
04:55But anyway, I love this idea.
04:57We're going to do this.
04:57When you finally get married, we're just going to show up at some estate
05:01and just with tents and the caterers and just we're having a wedding.
