Hi, I'm Cody...

2
00:00:18,643 --> 00:00:22,134
and I'm Maria - we're a couple..

3
00:00:22,267 --> 00:00:24,267
We've been married for about 9 months.

4
00:00:28,377 --> 00:00:30,377
We live in lovely Ottawa, Ontario, Canada,...

5
00:00:30,552 --> 00:00:33,091
...where the temperature is currently well below zero.

6
00:00:34,124 --> 00:00:36,124
The reason we got married... our lifes have been very hectice...

7
00:00:36,617 --> 00:00:38,617
...with work and bills and schedules....

8
00:00:39,308 --> 00:00:43,356
...phone calls, emails, deadlines, latenights,...

9
00:00:43,652 --> 00:00:46,591
...sleepless nights, early mornings, long days.

10
00:00:46,631 --> 00:00:50,423
It was getting to the point, where we felt like we didn't have any time together anymore.

11
00:00:50,848 --> 00:00:52,848
We needed to bonding in.

12
00:00:53,267 --> 00:00:56,120
Since our wedding, we've been getting this great magazine called "2".

13
00:00:56,248 --> 00:00:58,248
It's a magazine just for couples...

14
00:00:58,378 --> 00:01:02,732
They run a contest - every issue for an all expenses paid trip to a Club Med Resort...

15
00:01:02,733 --> 00:01:05,501
for a couples makeover-experience.

16
00:01:05,715 --> 00:01:07,075
So we applied.

17
00:01:07,194 --> 00:01:10,005
We wrote an email to the publisher - we sent some pictures of ourselves...

18
00:01:10,221 --> 00:01:13,373
... and told them all about - who we are - and why we needed their help. 

19
00:01:13,978 --> 00:01:15,978
A few weeks later we got a call.

20
00:01:16,908 --> 00:01:22,041
We've been chosen for the couples makeover trip for the "Spring 2007" issue.

21
00:01:22,290 --> 00:01:24,854
So they arranged for us to come to Toronto...

22
00:01:25,756 --> 00:01:27,756
...gave us a hole bunch of free stuff...

23
00:01:29,135 --> 00:01:31,895
...and put us on a plane with a full makeover-crew...

24
00:01:31,896 --> 00:01:35,529
... including a photographer - an assistent - a style expert ...

25
00:01:35,530 --> 00:01:38,524
...a rider - the magazine publisher and a camera crew.

26
00:01:38,661 --> 00:01:42,729
And that's where the adventure began!
