00:00the wedding of Martin Lawrence's daughter and Eddie Murphy's son.
00:04We told you they got engaged over the holiday weekend,
00:07and now Martin Lawrence is talking about planning this event.
00:12And who's really going to foot the bill?
00:15You know, traditionally, if you're doing things traditionally,
00:18not everybody does anymore, it is the father of the bride who pays.
00:23Martin Lawrence, you...
00:26That means everyone's looking at you.
00:28So what is he going to do? He was on with Big Boy.
00:30Here's what he had to say about the wedding.
00:33With you, and not Googling or, you know, the net worth,
00:37but we know you got some bread.
00:39We know that Eddie got some bread.
00:41Who pays for the wedding?
00:43Well, Eddie said, I got to pay for it.
00:45Who, you?
00:46Yeah, he said, I got to pay for it,
00:48because he paid for his last daughter's wedding,
00:51like, the last six weddings, so...
00:53What they got to do with you?
00:56But he said, it is my turn now.
00:58So you can feel it.
01:00I don't mind. I don't mind.
01:03That's tradition. It's traditional.
01:05You know, that's what the father of the bride does.
01:07They pay for the wedding.
01:09He does have two other daughters, though,
01:11so hopefully he doesn't break the bank too much on this wedding,
01:14because I'm sure he'll have a few other weddings
01:16that he'll have to pay for in the future.
01:18Yeah, but that puts pressure on the other daughters.
01:20They have to marry someone.
01:22Because the thing about this wedding,
01:24I was going to say the problem,
01:26but the joyous thing about this wedding
01:28is because it is two huge celebrities
01:31who are the parents of the bride and groom,
01:33the guest list...
01:35It's going to be huge.
01:36You either decide that this is going to be
01:38a very small wedding with just 15 people,
01:40or it's going to be 300.
01:42Like hundreds.
01:43And I feel like they're going to go with the big one.
01:45At the same time, if you have two big people,
01:47I know Martin's going to pay for the majority of it,
01:49but don't we think Eddie's going to sprinkle some money here
01:51or there, like Eric's going to want...
01:54Eddie's done sprinkling money.
01:56Eddie's got his hands in his pocket,
01:58and they ain't coming out.

02:02Listen, this event can be
02:04the comedic event of the absolute year.
02:06I think that...
02:08This almost feels like...
02:10I think people need to take into consideration
02:12after this wedding that they're going to be in-laws.
02:14Like, Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy
02:16are going to be in-laws.
02:17So it just reminds me of that old movie,
02:19Meet the Fockers.
02:20Like, this has all the potential
02:22to turn into a movie.
02:23Right. It's true.
02:24Like, Thanksgiving, the holidays,
02:26the speeches at the wedding.
02:28It's going to be hilarious.
02:29Yeah.
02:30I wonder if they...
02:31Wow, you could do a whole documentary
02:33just planning this thing.
