During the latest episode ofAlex Cooper’sCall Her Daddypodcast released on Tuesday, March 11, theStranger Thingsstar, 21, pulled back the curtain onher May 2024 weddingtoJon Bon Jovi’s 22-year-old son — including the couple’s surprising ode to the iconic 1978 musical.

“It’s lightning in a bottle — the feeling is unmatched,” Brown said of the day as a whole. “I will say, as much as I did control every factor of it. I remember everything about the ceremony, the vows. I remember the feeling, not caring.”

“My guests were stood up for most of our ceremony,” the actress recalled to Cooper, 30, “‘cause we forgot to tell them to sit down, and even that, I’m like, ‘I just don’t care.’ I love it, it’s just part of it, it’s the story you get to tell. And after, I let the reins go and whatever happens now is just fun.”

“So we did a 6-minute choreographed routine,” Brown revealed, as Cooper appeared visibly shocked. “I know, this is — and I can’t believe Jake actually did it.”

And Bongiovi was just as hopelessly devoted to theGrease-inspired routine as Brown, the star told Cooper, admitting that it took over a year to nail the dance to a medley of “You’re The One That I Want,” “Summer Nights,” “We Go Together” and more.

“We dressed as Sandy and Danny — it was epic. It was unbelievable,” Brown recalled. “People could not believe what they were hearing. And that was the only thing I looked to Jake and I was like, ‘If you let me down on this… we have been practicing for a year and a half.’ ”

“And we went to dance lessons, like that, it was very, very strict for me. I’ve always wanted to do that,” she continued. “I’m either going to do that or dance down the aisle, so it’s you choosing, and Jake was like, ‘OK, we’ll do the other one.’ But he loved it, he absolutely loved it.”

As for how the routine ultimately turned out, theGodzilla vs. Kongstar said, “We did not miss one beat.”

“And after practicing for a year and a half, I thought, ‘Wow,’ and I don’t regret that one bit,” she continued. “It was like we put on a show, and he also is an actor, so we just loved being able to do that for everyone and perform.”

Also six minutes in length at her wedding was Brown’s vows. After revealing that she penned her own, the actress jokingly recalled, “People were like, ‘When’s it going to end?’ ”

“I’m an actor, I cannot help it,” she added. “I had to say everything I felt. I was like, ‘And one more thing.’ ”
