Though Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas acknowledged the importance of having marriage as an option, referring to the historic political movement to legalize gay marriage, the HGTV couple expressed that they weren't sure if they were personally interested in exercising this right.
"We don't care to be bound legally by the state," Bynum told Instinct Magazine, acknowledging that it's not the answer people are looking for when asking about wedding plans. Thomas added, "It's not like I don't want to be bound." Each HGTV host mentioned some personal hesitations they have about committing to a wedding, with Thomas saying that he didn't like the idea of how much a wedding would cost.
"I also hate the idea of a bunch of people staring at me the entire time," Bynum added, mentioning that he already receives a lot of undue focus in his day-to-day life. Thomas and Bynum rounded out their discussion of marriage with a pretty significant reason behind their uncertainty. "We've already [felt] like we are married," Thomas said. "So, I mean it wouldn't change anything in any meaningful way. Other than tax law, I guess."
