Days of Our Lives
Friday, September 29, 2017
Beautiful, heartfelt show today, as the double weddings are featured. A replay of all closing scenes from yesterday, ending with the texts arriving for the participants, and we learn that Father Louis had a family emergency, had to leave, so now they all do not have someone to perform the ceremony. Bonnie has waltzed in wearing a horrible green low cut dress, (reminds me of a giant green leaf, lol). Chad is on the phone reassuring Abby they will get someone, Sonny gets a bright idea that Bonnie can marry them. She is horrified at the idea, Sonny reminds her how she got ordained for some Valentine's Day thing, she is declining right and left, Justin walks in, hears the news, offers himself as the one to marry them all, evidently has whatever is needed, as he did marry....(my CC said Amy & Victor???) Ahhh, all is well.
At Club TBD, Julie is telling Doug all about how she & Chloe were vying against Myron to buy it, then joined forces, etc. Doug is silent. She starts babbling that he said nothing, is he mad she did not consult him first, bought it, etc. Doug finally says, so this is my place. Yes of course. Then I want the very first dance with my girl, he takes her in his arms, they sway a bit, as Doug sings "I Love You Truly" to her. She is overcome with emotion, and I loved these scenes!
In the park, Gabi is talking to Ari, Eli arrives, she sends Ari off to pick some flowers. She & Eli chat a bit, the poor me bit, but everything is as it should be. Ari returns with her basket full, they all take off for the church. One flower fell out, is under the bench. A pair of men's legs come walking up, stop, pick up the flower, and goes on.
At the church, couples are arriving, seating themselves here and there. Rafe/Hope, Brady/Nicole, Maggie/Victor, Claire/Theo, Lani, Steve/Kayla, Kate/Andre, John/Marlena, Abe/Val. Small talk for everyone. Brady goes off to make sure Father Louis is all set, returns as can't find him. Rafe chats a bit with Nicole, Love is definitely in the air. Doors open, here is Ari, sprinkling the flower petals, everyone "awwwww", accompanied by her mother, who makes sure she gets seated up front in the big chairs on the side.
And so it begins...Music begins to play, doors open, Sonny comes in, followed by Justin & Bonnie. Sonny & justin stand up at the altar, while Bonnie goes back down the aisle, shoving herself into the pew next to Victor. LOL. Doors open again, tis Paul, with John & Marlena, up to the altar. (there are hugs all around). Paul joins Sonny, John & Marlena take their seats. Now Chad arrives, with Andre & Kate behind him. Up front, more hugs, handshakes all round. Finally the music begins, Here Comes the Bride, the doors open, Abby comes down the aisle, with Jen & JJ, and lots more hugs & handshakes.
Justin explains the absence of Father Louis, and that he will be conducting the ceremony. He makes a small, heartfelt speech since he is father of one of the grooms, and uncle of the bride (was puzzled about that remark, til I remembered he was married to Adrienne, sister of Jack, who is Abby's father). The doors suddenly open, we see man's legs. Ah, but it is late arrivals Doug & Julie, who make excuses, apologize, scurry to their seats. Justin then says that the couples have asked various members of their families to say a few words. Brady talks of fighting for the love, never letting anything get in the way. Andre talks of how proud he is of Chad, how no one would think of the DiMeras in terms of love, but with Chad & Abigail, they will. That Chad has actually made him a better man. He wishes them a happy ever after, and almost forgets, but remembers to wish the best for Sonny & Paul as well.
Maggie speaks of second chances, she knows a lot about that herself. She goes on, love, love, love. And now comes the vows the couples will say to each other. Paul is first and really gives a fantastic summary of himself, of age 4, baseball career, admitting he hid his orientation, and then crediting Sonny for making him realize who he is, and where he wanted to be the rest of his life. It is a long, but beautiful speech. Sonny's turn, his is shorter, but just as heartfelt. Lots of shots of the guests, smiling, looking at each other, etc.
Now it is Chad & Abby's turn, Chad cannot imagine how he will follow that, Abby offers to go first, lifts her veil off, smiles, as he does as well, tells him that she always planned everything in advance, but that is no longer the case. She has no idea what will happen next month, next week, the next few days, even the next 10 minutes.......Cue the doors flying open loudly. Everyone turns to look (we see only those legs of a man. Shocked expressions on the faces.
