Not Gerry’s father. He wasn't able to be there: https://screenrant.com/the-golden-bachelor-wedding-who-is-gerry-turners-dad-not-at-wedding/ This article describes two wedding cakes. Were we shown them?

The Day After: Golden Bachelor newlyweds seen taking a romantic stroll https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12931939/Golden-Bachelor-newlyweds-Gerry-Turner-Theresa-Nist-romantic-stroll.html?ito=native_share_article-nativemenubutton

Back in the day, Kathy got riled at Theresa for the latter's TMI about her early "connection" with Gerry. Turns out both women knew right away that it was so. ⚡😍 💍 Susan? Tone down the ABC hosting audition. Kathy's doing it better. 🎤 📺 Leslie? No regrets, girlfriend. You'll always have your Prince. 😉 🎸 Joey? Oh, Baby, I'll be there! (Why, he's practically my Homie, being from only two counties away!) 🥰 😄 🌹

Not quite sure what "Southern elegance" means, but I also am not quite sure what "carnival" means here, either. Re: Treesa's gown. I've opined on how the "Virginal Bride" look was completely wrong, given that the entire premise was how love could yet be found the second time around, so about the "Mermaid" style in particular: Not a good look for any actual human. An off-white "body-con" dress of "day length" would have shown Theresa's fit frame just fine.

What? No "spontaneous" Groomsmen Dance?! No Removal of the Bridal Garter?! No "cute children" cavorting?! No faces smeared with wedding cake?! No staggering Drunken Uncles?! No cringe-worthy speech by the Best Man?! Such a lack of dignity, I'm tellin' yas! Oh, not Theresa. Nope. 😉🤑

Call me Ms. Trash, because those perks sound pretty dang sweet to me! (Free trip to Italy? Yes, please!) I trust you didn't watch any weddings of the British Royal Family? 😆😆😆

I truly do not understand this comment, if you refer strictly to Theresa and Gerry. Yes, there were some nervous laughs on the bride's part, and Gerry’s vows were a bit too "Season recap," but I thought the vows part was otherwise pretty on point. Hey, at least we didn't get Stripper Couture as many modern wedding gowns resemble.

Mes amis! We are gathered here tonight to witness the marriage of Gerry (Indiana!), Widower Extraordinaire, and his Treesa, She of the Calming Hand and Head for Finance. A joint venture of Reality TV, by Reality TV, and for Reality TV. Thus, by the power invested in ABC, commercials will be shown, family will speak on camera, the Unchosen will "smile," and the Officiant will do Improv. God bless us, everyone.

This is one of the most beautiful wedding ceremonies I've ever seen. Yes, there were commercial breaks, but I think the main event easily supersedes.

People in formal attire. Stringed instruments in accompaniment. Cocktails at white-cloth-topped tables. Beautiful serene setting. Such a spectacle!

Aging happens....if one is lucky. Denigrating it isn't an attractive trait at any age. I thought Theresa looked absolutely fabulous in that white outfit that showed off her amazing legs.

MAJOR FAUX PAS to propose or announce a pregnancy at another's wedding. Really bad form, ABC.

What's so "sad" about this wedding? And as for its being a "spectacle," as one who got married in a courthouse, I think many "normal" weddings might qualify. It is no secret that Reality TV pays all its participants. It's become a career path. I have a feeling Jesse and his wife probably have agreed on his whereabouts. "Bread and circuses"? Um, TV isn't a new invention. I DO have one criticism: NO WAY should Treesa be decked out like a never-been-married bride!

I hope Cameron finds himself a lovely Kiwi cyclist!

Both Becca and Austin sound ignorant of the religions being discussed.

I think what we see will be a real marriage ceremony. They each could have continued dating on their own without this show. This isn't "MAFS: Australia," and Gerry and Theresa aren't whatever generation is in their 20s now. Catholic Treesa isn't going to merely, as we used to say, shack up with Gerry, nope, not having included her entire family in this televised venture. They will marry. They will honeymoon in fabulous Italy. They will move to and establish a home in SC. They (and families) will be filmed. They have tasted ABC's bread, and will want to keep it buttered. In short, Gerry and Theresa Turner will (aim to) become our Golden Ryan and Trista Sutter. https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/golden-bachelor-gerry-turner-theresa-nist-share-wedding-details-admit-fantasy-suite-everything

Would you call a McDonald's franchise owner "a fry cook mostly of a greasy spoon" (a term usually referring to a diner, anyway)? And if Gerry were a fry cook, or later a janitor, is there some unworthiness attached to these jobs? I get the "lies" accusations, but there seems also to be an implied denigration here. In any case, here is what seems to be the reality of Gerry’s varied career history.

There is no joy in Denver; the Mighty Casey "Experts" have struck out.

I can't really read anything now.

Where might one see this wedding playlist?

One wonders if anything is discussed! Or at least considered seriously by the Triumvirate! Dog-dislikers paired with dog-owners. Physical preferences ignored totally. Brides expected to live in buses and basements. Financial security needs married to jobless. Etc.

Add me to the list of lucky visitors to the Italian (and French and Monagasque) Riviera! In fact, I'm sitting in my Family Room under a framed poster of Portofino, next to one of our photos of the Cinque Terre. Good times!

https://hollywoodontheitalianriviera.com/category/santa-margherita/ In a real sense, you had so stepped!

I have watched every episode, read every post in these threads. Yet for the life of me, I still cannot bring readily to my mind's eye either Emily and Brennan, or *re-reads above posts to get the right paired names* Becca and Austin, such is how much the wives and husbands, respectively, look alike to me. 🤪

Elizzikra, Clare shaded Cameron about his work, asking if he wasn't "bored." He clearly wasn't; she was just being a jerk implying she was bored by his job, even as he tried to involve her. (Meanwhile, she had scorned Cameron for not being in therapy, her job.) And I am similar in preparing for a gathering, the way you describe. What Clare did, IIRC, was to dry out the food because she cooked it too early. These two are completely incompatible.
