Meet the new couples:

Rochelle and Rob Brann - New York, NY
A true millennial couple, Rob and Ro met at Rob's college fraternity party and it was "love at first beer." Despite their undeniable connection, Rob's Type A nature and Ro's laid-back demeanor often causes them to bump heads. Going against Rob's "master plan," tensions rise when Ro begins to contemplate whether life would be easier if they moved away from THE HUSTLE and bustle of New York City. Further complicating their relationship, Ro seeks to overcome unresolved abandonment issues with her father, while Rob struggles to choose between his professional obligations and his true passion. With a lot of decisions to make, Rob and Ro quickly find themselves at a crossroads in their first year of marriage.

Erica and Adonis Gladney - Phoenix, AZ
Erica, a real estate agent, and Adonis, an entrepreneur, met six years ago at a party and discovered their instant chemistry, but the two face an uphill battle when days before their wedding Adonis makes a last minute revelation.

Brandon Liberati and Craig Ramsay - Los Angeles, CA
Brandon, a celebrity hairstylist and beauty professional met Craig, a celebrity fitness expert, at a gym in Hollywood over five years ago.

After months of planning, on top of all of the other challenges a newlywed couple faces, Craig and Brandon run into an unexpected roadblock that could completely change the course of their plans for children.
