The wedding goes forward, despite Dan's disapproval, especially when he finds out that Crystal is pregnant.  (I remember calling it when I first saw this episode, as soon as they said that Crystal kept going to the bathroom.)  He does come around eventually.  Jeff Abugov's script again offers drama and comedy, the latter including the awful pink bridesmaids' dresses that of course haven't improved with age.  Note that Crystal's recounting of her marriages does not match what we heard in the first season.  Also, the title is retrospectively plain, considering how many more weddings would be on this somewhat soap-operatic sitcom.

Lynn Ann Leveridge appears as Lucy and would return as an unknown character.  Kristopher Kent Hall takes over the role of Lonnie, which he'll keep for three years but only four more appearances.  And, yes, Crystal and Anne-Marie (Adilah Barnes) remember each other from high school.
