tangerine95 June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 (edited) I'm honestly probably just going to be too happy they got married to complain whenever it happens lol But I really do want them to get a lot of focus in the episode they get married in which is why I don't want the crossover wedding.It does have some positives like all their friends being there,the whole big event feel of the crossovers and the fact that those episodes get the most promo but I'd still prefer an episode where they wouldn't have to share screentime with characters from four shows. I can see it happening in the midseason finale maybe,they're already talking about it so that makes me think its in 6A.I'd be okay with feb sweeps too,it would be nice if feb sweeps weren't horrible for olicity for a change.

Angel12d June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 I'm team "they plan a proper wedding again but it gets interrupted by villains of the week/big bad so they elope instead." Haha. I really want to see Felicity in a better dress but I also think an elopement watched by their loved ones just works for them. Simple, no more messing around. 5 Link to comment

All of the wedding dresses across the Flarrowverse have been questionable, so I'm fine with her getting married in one of her Felicity dresses. (After she and Oliver have many productive discussions about their relationship and she starts Smoak Tech and Oliver establishes a good co-parenting relationship with Samantha that maintains respectful boundaries.)

RedVitC June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 Ooooh, a wedding. I love weddings. I was thinking, with Marc saying that there would be other effects/consequences to what happened on the island (something like that) I wonder if they'll just be like, you know what life is short, our lives are hectic and dangerous, let's just get married asap and have a small wedding. But I'd like it if their friends from the other shows were there too (I feel the same way with Barry and Iris, when they get married I want everyone to be there). But I think that SA said that they would take their relationship slow. So I'm confused they're talking so openly about a wedding this early.(I'm not up to date with Arrow spoilers though, I get most of my info when I pop into this thread from time to time ). 1 Link to comment
Belinea June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 (edited) For some reason, I am not as excited as the rest of you guys for a wedding. I don't even know why. But I had just hoped that they'd have them be a power couple in the background for a bit after rushing the relationship in S4 and then after some solid time they could have had a small ceremony. After the way they screwed the relationship over, I am scared of them going there yet again. *goes into hiding* Edited June 27, 2017 by Belinea 2 Link to comment

Mellowyellow June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 I cannot believe I woke up to wedding rumours!!!! Squeeeeeeee My preference is 620 but I'll take anything I can! I suppose he'll use the same ring though. Hehe it's nice to whinge about this stuff instead! 1 Link to comment

Obviously I want it to happen and I know I will be excited when it does, but I'd rather they left the wedding until later in the season (620 is my preference). Mainly because there's less time for them to mess things up afterwards. LOL. Plus I think it makes sense to take their time for a little while. But yeah, mainly I just want them to be together and be that solid power couple in the background. I've never needed the show to focus on them a lot with engagement parties and all that stuff. Just let them be together and let's get on with the show. 3 Link to comment

I wouldn't say I am excited either, more like accepted it's going to happen. If I had my druthers, Oliver and Felicity would attend multiple couples counseling sessions and occasional ones with Mom and Myson (ugh) and then get married in like S8, but I also realize that pretty much no one but me wants to see that. Really neither of them should be getting married anytime soon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I do kind of think a big, white wedding has been sort of tainted because of 416 even though thy had no guests. ? 3 Link to comment
Cleanqueen June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 (edited) They can be married and have cute couple scenes. And at this point, these two have been through so much and almost lost each other countless times that time is indeed of the essence. I think they're both at a good place emotionally so I'd love to see that. Also 6 season's in to the show, Oliver needs to be planning the next phase of his life.

But I'm at the point that I don't care when it happens just as long as it happens tbh. And I agree, if they're teasing it already it makes me think maybe it's in 6a. IDK. If the odd year pattern follows, then I'd not expect much in 620 but 720 should be great! 5 hours ago, way2interested said: At most I could picture them skipping the reengagement and having them just start out 601 engaged just to avoid having to write another proposal scene to try to rival 409, but that's it. If they were so set on showing their first date, their first time, their proposal, their "vows," etc. I doubt they would want to skip anything at this point. I'm wondering now if 601 just has a re-proposal and that DR and SA are just bouncing off from there because of the plot point checklist method that the writers use, since that could fit SA's tease from before with the "please say yes" quote or him saying that Olicity fans would be happy with where s6 would be going. Or maybe everyone is all-in on skipping the drama between them that they just want them together foreva as soon as possible in 6a to push their relationship as support into the background. Given that the last time we saw the ring, Felicity gave it back to Oliver and told him not to give it to her again, I'm still expecting payoff and have Felicity do the proposing this time around. Have her ask for her ring back. I don't want to miss that. Edited June 27, 2017 by BkWurm1 5 Link to comment
Mellowyellow June 27, 2017 Share June 27, 2017 I think it makes perfect sense for them to get married. They've been through hell and back, seen all sides of each other and yet still look at each other like the other person is a freaking unicorn jumping over a rainbow. There is nothing left to do but to get married and grow old with someone who makes you feel like that. I even feel like they've done enough to establish it on the show. Oliver looked like he wanted thus sped up in 522 but was trying to be patient with Felicity's "one step at a time" and Felicity's whole "regret" speech in 523. Makes sense they'll go for it in S6. No 620 dream wedding but still SQUEEEEEEEEEEE all the same. BRING ON THE HEART EYES!!!!!!! 2 Link to comment

I don't feel like the ring itself is tainted. It's not like he was cheating on her or didn't want to marry her. That part of it was real, it's just he was a total dunderhead and until they figured out why, the wedding and relationship was off. The ring was something Felicity loved and something that was personal from Oliver so I want her to have it back. 3 Link to comment
JamieLynn832002 June 28, 2017 Share June 28, 2017 My feelings on the ring are complicated because while I would like to see Felicity get it back, I also always kind of hated that Oliver gave her his mother's ring. They at best strongly disliked each other so it always seemed weird to me. 3 Link to comment
Mellowyellow June 28, 2017 Share June 28, 2017 They can totally just get a new ring and have some speech about a fresh start. People get upgrade and recuts all the time. In "Magic" they had him on one knee so I'm hoping he'll get on one knee again. But I agree she'll need to give him a big sign. Although they couldjust write him as having enough after losing her and getting on one knee again. Hehe some how I think I'm going to be pretty happy either way! I was probably the only person who didn't mind him being pushy in 416. Oliver is rarely proactive in relationships so him trying to manipulate Felicity into marrying him and him actively running away from Laurel are two things that endear him to me. 1 Link to comment

She'd have to "lose" the marriage licence record in the system and brain bleach anyone that might remember two years ago when they got engaged in front of cameras and stayed friends even after he killed her boyfriend, but otherwise you're good to go! Now this would only really make sense if he gets outed as the GA. And by "make sense" I mean, be absurdly ridiculous and completely out of character for Felicity to accept, but they'd have their excuse. In all honesty, I think we are safe from a secret marriage. These are the writers that hated juggling Oliver's secret as the Arrow. I don't think they'll add another secret to juggle. But it would give them an excuse to have Olicity together but never at a Bed, Bath and Beyond. Link to comment
