Gina and Clint's wedding was featured on last week's episode of Married at First Sight, and Gina shared her first impression of her groom on the January 11 episode of Married at First Sight: Afterparty.
"I think the first thing that I'm noticing is conversation just felt easy," Gina shared with Afterparty host Keshia Knight Pulliam.

"I definitely can feel the chemistry in conversation, but I'm not feeling a ton of physical chemistry."
Keshia therefore asked, "You don't feel the sexual sparks flying?"
"No," Gina confirmed, "not flying."
When asked how Gina planned to keep Clint out of the friend-zone, Gina replied, "Girl, I don't know! I guess I just have to hold onto that idea that it CAN happen."
Gina had apparently been in this situation before, but her ex-boyfriend managed to change her mindset.

"In my previous relationship, it was definitely his sense of humor [and] the way he treated me [that made me attracted to him], and he was great in bed too -- so that helped," Gina said with a laugh.
During Gina and Clint's first conversation after their wedding ceremony, the pair discovered they both lived in the same high-rise apartment complex in downtown Nashville.
Gina noted that Clint looked "a tad" familiar, and she confirmed to Keshia on Afterparty, "I had seen [Clint] in the elevator before."

In fact, Married at First Sight's production staff apparently almost spoiled Gina's match for her early into the Season 16 process because of her and Clint's living situation.

"They definitely almost got busted, for sure. Our home visits were within 24 hours [of each other]. They did my home visit the day before, and then the next morning, I went out to walk my dog and I briefly remember passing a van and there was a man in a headset," Gina recalled.
"And I was like, 'Are they about to tell me I've got a match? That's quick!' So I walked my dog, come back, and the whole production team is outside. I'm like, 'Oh, did you guys call? I left my phone upstairs.' And they were like, 'Oh no, we just forgot to get a little footage of the building,' is what they had said."
Gina said she "played FBI" to find out more information.
"Once they left, I asked the valet what they were doing -- and he was like, 'Oh, they're interviewing some old man upstairs,'" Gina revealed with a laugh.
Gina and Clint were matched for matrimony because they're both successful and passionate about their careers while being family-oriented, adventurous and supportive.

Clint said he liked the "concept" of waking up next to the same woman for the rest of his life, but he confessed to being a bit of a player in his past.
"I've slept with 65 partners, but at the end of the day, I just haven't found Mrs. Right. But I'm super ready for it," Clint revealed in a confessional on the show's latest episode.
"This is the ultimate journey for an adventurer like me and the guy who has been trying to find the right person for my whole life."
Once Clint saw Gina for the first time, he gushed about how she's a natural beauty with beautiful eyes and a nice figure. He said he loved the fact she's spontaneous and adventurous, especially since he's a sailor and has two boats.
"I feel like the stars have aligned and the universe is working in our favor," Gina told the cameras after getting to know Clint a little bit better.
"He has a sense of humor, he has a nice wave to his hair -- which is super sexy -- and so I'm excited to just have fun and get to know him."
And Clint said he could see excitement and passion behind Gina's eyes, which made him feel like they'd be "golden" as a couple.
Married at First Sight currently airs on Wednesday nights at 8PM ET/PT on Lifetime.
