Aren't Katie and Donna Logans. I didn't expect them to be there. They dont seem close to Steffy. And Beth isn't Steffy or Finns kid. 

Glad Wyatt and Flo didn't get an invite. They are useless.

Wish Judge Judy had come with Byrd to the wedding. She could have told the assembled lot that beauty is fleeting but stupid is forever.

Seriously! When he came through the door, I'm thinking," Why in the world is Byrd doing this wedding?"

It was such an odd casting choice. Has he done any actual acting roles at all outside of 20+ years on Judge Judy?

[CountryGirl]

OMG, this has me 🤣 🤣😂:

 

[RuntheTable]

And so the wedding of the century has commenced!

Is it normal protocol for the father of the bride to tongue bath his daughter before the ceremony has even started? I don't remember my dad doing that, but then my dad has never wanted to have sex with me.

I hate man buns; I really do. I used to work with a guy who sported one. I would surreptitiously watch him during the day; playing with it, adjusting it, tightening it, and I would have those weird, short visions, almost like a vignette, where I would come up behind him with a big ole honking pair of scissors and SNIP! But Thomas can keep his. MA knows how to work that thing. 

Poor Hope; they sure didn't want her upstaging the bride. It looked like she was on her way to appear in the local showing of Pride and Prejudice. 

I loved Paris's gown, but not for a wedding. He outfit was more suitable for an evening at the local cabana on one of the islands. 

It was nice to see Pam again, although she didn't have her umbrella. 

All the men looked sharp.

Brooke looked amazing; loved her dress and hair. 

Li was lovely as well. 

For once I liked everything Steffy was wearing, and I didn't even have a beef with her hair. 

I still think Bill and Katie should have been there. He is Kelly's grandfather after all. And that little girl is a sweetheart. 

Where were Douglas and Beth?

 

[CountryGirl]

I'm guessing with covid, they wanted to limit the kiddos so that's why we only saw Kelly onscreen and she peaced out pretty quickly.

But Hayes was mentioned as napping elsewhere and Douglas and Beth were at a kiddie camp, I think. 

[CharlizeCat]

Right. Hayes (still can't stand that name) was off-camera with Amelia and Douglas was on a long-anticipated school field trip. There was no explanation about Beth. Probably with Donna. *sarcasm.*

$Bill is always welcome on my screen, but I don't know if would have been appropriate to invite him to the wedding. I seriously doubt that Finn has any knowledge of that chapter in Steffy's life. Although, I think it would have been hilarious if Bill showed up and his appearance would have to have been awkwardly explained to Jack and Linn. Then, to have Sheila show up. I would pay good money to see that!

I didn't care for Steffy's dress that much. It was too "nouveau riche" looking or something. I also don't care for sexy wedding gowns. Save it for the honeymoon. But, it was a definite improvement from the last 4 or 5 wedding outfits. 

Hope's dress ... oy vey! That must have been Steffy's last FU to Hope or something because it was all wrong. The color was awful and the style was matronly and looked like maternity wear. My initial thought was maybe it had been planned all along for Taylor and Hope had to wear it at the last minute.

Brooke looked gorgeous and if her hair looked like that every day , then I'd be firmly behind the longer locks.

Paris' attire was fine but again, all I could focus on were the huge saggy bazooms.

I had to ff through Ridge's speech. I caught something towards the end about ice cream and saving baby opossums and crows and rolled my eyes. Seriously? What was the significance of him whipping out the childhood photo at the very end? I thought maybe it was to show how much Kelly looks like Steffy did when she was the same age.

I have three sisters. Our dad made a short speech at all three of our receptions. We’d have died of embarrassment if he’d talked about us like Ridge did about Steffy today. Can we call that wishful incest? I didn’t even recognize the human being he was describing. Yuck!!

Obviously, I do not have three sisters. I have two sisters. Counting myself, that makes 3 of us. Therefore, our dad made three speeches at three receptions. I really do need to reread my posts before I hit submit reply. Geesh.

If I had to guess judging from the red hair, this was right after Steffy had been found in Morgan DeWitt's house after he'd been assumed lost at sea for months. That context would be lost to new viewers given how long ago it was.

Than we could see if Carter’s butt is as well developed as his chest. 
 

I would bet dollars to donuts that Eric looks better without a shirt than does Ridge. 

The pastor looks very familiar but I just can place him. Who is he?  

I now pronounce you Mr and Mrs Boring.  Wasn’t that the same kissing pose when Stuffy married Liam?  At least Wyatt was wild enough to get Stuffy to jump off the yacht.  Maybe Finn is not so boring. Finn’s kissed produced headlights on Stuffy.  
 

Why is Stuffy wearing white?  She’s definitely not pure anyway anyhow and her virtue ended as a teenager  

 

Great reception with just champagne and cake. Pam is really leaving because she was incensed that she and Charlie wasn’t asked to cook or bake the cake but she should have brought lemon bars as a wedding present. 

 

She’s back, Sheila is back but the wedding wouldn’t have been so boring if TIIC had Shelia crash the wedding and Stephanie’s portrait fell off the wall 😜. 

[LittleIggy]

Never thought I would be glad to see Sheila, but after a week of piled high and deep 💩shoveling, I was.

I was half expecting Finn and Steffy to go with Officer, I mean, Rev. Byrd to sign some paperwork after the ceremony.

[CharlizeCat]

I thought that young Steffy in the photo Ridge showed had blonde hair. Now the photo in the Twitter spoof by Matt Hanvey had red hair from the Morgan kidnapping, but that looked very Photoshopped to me. It would seen odd that after all the nauseating gushing, that Ridge would show a photo from a traumatic time in Steffy's life which she might not even remember. But then again, look who we're talking about!

I don't agree with the 1st item on this list (Katie & Donna aren't related to either Steffy or Finn, and aren't close with either of them) so I can see why they weren't invited.

But to this list I'd like to add:

Sixth - how did Sheila know Finn was going to get a phone call from the hospital

Seventh - how did Sheila know Finn was going into the room *she just happens to be waiting for him* out of ALL the rooms in the mansion

Hot take, but just from the stills and short clips I've seen, I don't hate Hope's dress design. The color is unflattering to be sure, but given how wardrobe hates her in particular, she could've gotten much worse. Like Paris, for example.

5 hours ago, Gam2 said:

Five....which is a lot at her age, but like I mentioned in another post, Hope at one point did nothing BUT have weddings in 2012. Steffy's at least had hers spaced out a bit hahaha.

That's not sideways bashing of Hope, for the record, but I got my issues with this wedding well beyond the number of times she'd been down the aisle previously.

I didn’t hate the design, but, if they were going for a Jane Austen/Regency look, her girls needed to be lifted and supported.

Listen, you're getting a little too cerebral for this show! We can't have none of this question-asking nonsense around here! 😂😂😂😂

[RuntheTable]

It looked like the guest house bed was rumpled and had been slept in; has Sheila been squatting there waiting to make her move? Her presence also begs the question of how did she even gain entry to the estate? What does it say when I have better security in my little 1800 square foot tri-level, than these rich folks with million dollar mansions? 

"It's me sweetheart; I'm your mother", yes, that is the Sheila I know. Here are the facts, now just shut up and accept them, and let me take over your life.

Yes, this actually has my attention more than Sheila being his mom. Did Jack help Sheila snag Eric's swimmers? Or did he have an affair? If Finn is the product of an affair, then how did Jack sell that to Li? We haven't been told why they chose to adopt, so that could play into it as well. But if he is Eric's? Now that could be epic. The repercussions would be deep and devastating. I can only hope it wouldn't lead to an Eric/Sheila redux. I would much rather see Eric move on with Donna, but I can see Sheila getting in the middle of any new relationship Eric may enter into. Or, just flat out pressing Eric to reconcile with her "for their son."

But I think I can see what conflicts are going to arise. Finn being Finn, will want to embrace his birth mother. Even after everyone tells him about her, he will either be non-believing, or will stand firm on how his mother has changed. Of course this will drive Steffy round the bend, because I don't see her welcoming her new mother-in-law with open arms. I guess we will get to see if Tanner Novlan has any acting chops since this will be much meatier material. Let us see if he can balance his great love for Steffy with his desire to establish a relationship with his new found mom.

I haven't even watched yet, but didn't they plan this wedding in like 4 days? It makes sense he couldn't get the day off.  The real question is, isn't he still on paternity leave?  Also makes sense that they only had champagne and cake or whatever leftovers were in the fridge, and that Hope's dress was make from the sheer curtains from a guest room.

Sheila again?  Is she still waitressing at Il Giardino?  Isn't that where we last left her?

Given what Finn's just been through, wouldn't he demand a DNA test before just accepting Sheila's word? 

Never mind. This is the show where $Bill didn't require any proof that Wyatt's his bio son. /eyeroll

I was so happy to see Alley Mills. She looked great with her natural hair color. A fleeting wish is that to save casting money, retire Charlie and put Pam together with Eric. I know it would never happen, 

I wouldn't mind seeing Finn be Eric's bio son, but the worried and distracted expressions on Jack's face this whole time makes he think he's Finn's father. 

 

[LittleIggy]

Sheila wouldn’t be Steffy’s MIL since she has no legal relationship with Finn. Assuming the adoption was legal, Lin is the only MIL.

Since when have legalities or technicalities ever stopped Shelia? 😁

How many damned offspring does Sheila have now?  At this point, she's like the monster queen from Aliens.  It would be easier for me to appreciate KB as a crazy villain if she weren't an even bigger wacko in real life.

Finn makes five....but I thought her whole thing with babies started  because of the one she miscarried with that doctor Scott and she couldn't have any more? Or something like that?

[blackwing]

I am here for Sheila.  The character's return is like a breath of fresh air for this show.  Anything to detract from the endless Steffy/Liam/Hope iterations and the ridiculousness of Carter/Quinn.

If I had my way, Sheila would go on a rampage and kill half of the residents of Bell A.  But they would be interesting and creative deaths, like in "And Then There Were None".  I believe she once killed someone by unleashing a swarm of bees into a guy's house.  Let's have some fun deaths on this show!

[backhometome]

Hope basically spelt out in her speech that a shit storm was coming.

I am excited for Shelia to cause drama for Steffy. Something that has nothing to do with waffle head.

Why would Finn just accept this random woman was his mother.

That appears to be the sole saving grace this far. It's absolutely ridiculous that the namesake of Stephanie fucking Forrester hasn't had better stories than she's gotten these past  10+ years (and even the ones pre-Liam weren't exactly stellar or had much room for growth) but better late than never, no matter how temporary.

Did she ever leave town last time? I can’t remember what became of her.

[CountryGirl]

IIRC, Sheila exposed the Queridge affair to Eric, faked having an injury after a fight with Quinn and was allowed by Eric to stay in the mansion to recover. I want to say James showed up and she blackmailed him into lying about the severity of her condition. Quinn busted her, then she got the waitressing job, and eavesdropped to get dirt. She tried to get some guy to seduce Quinn but he turned on her and told Quinn. Eric and Quinn gave Sheila her walking papers and last we saw, she was walking away from the mansion, smiling like the crazy lady she is.

[Waldo13]

Lurch you schmuck, it’s Dr and Mrs Finnegan.  Also in the land of the Foresters, it’s usually fatherhood first and marriage last 😜. 

I’m sure TIIC got Finn to shit in his pants to actually make him look as he did when Shiela was telling him she was his mother. 

Yes, this is an incredible day. Incredible indeed just to fuck up this boring ass wedding. Shiela Shiela Shiela, is that the same as Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice 😂.  

I hope Shiela rips the dead animal off Stuffy’s head and kicks Brooke in her golden cooter. And they thought Quinn was bad.

Oh, Finn, she is never gonna let you go.

Somehow, Brooke and Ridge don't look that excited to meet Finn's bio-mommy.

Or Steffy either:

Or Thomas and his man-bun:

Or Eric.

Li's expression is a bit unclear.

Jack looks guilty AF. I mean if you wanted a picture of "Oh, shit!" here it is.

A Sheila return is the last thing I wanted, but maybe it can be like Quarter - the thing I never knew I needed.

 

[TobinAlbers]

Today set up tomorrow to be quite interesting with us getting the Forrester's reactions and Finn getting educated on who his wife really is when she puts a motorcycle boot up his ass about Sheila.

A) Scott Clifton's reaction to Steffy's 'Everyday with Finn is a honeymoon' cracked me up. I say Scott Clifton and not Liam because that was totally SC's reacting to that line rather than Liam, LOL.  It was a nice moment between the actors.

B) Thomas' reaction to Sheila's entrance for the first time had me rooting for his evil shadiness to be unleashed. MA nailed in one look the absolute hatred he has for the woman who 'killed' his beloved mother.  Of course I wouldn't put it past this show for them to end up having hate sex but hopefully they won't. Will we have Sheila let lil Tommy know that she almost snapped his neck once when he was a baby in a cradle with Stephanie watching helplessly?

C) Sheila's been following/stalking Finn his whole life?  I would not put it past this show if we get a second reveal of Vinny's death and Sheila is just off camera holding a gun on Vinny making sure he filmed that suicide video to Thomas before jumping in front of Liam's car. Sheila seems totally the type to have orchestrated that suicide by Liam's car set up and basically told Vinny that if he didn't do it she'd either kill Thomas or Douglas to make him wish he had. 

D) And now Finn. Good gravy how DUMB is this man?  This isn't a person with an open heart as everyone kept repeating adnauseum.  This is Finn being written as not having one whit of sense when it comes to finding a stranger in this wife's family home.

Dude. This stranger says she is your mother. You ask for no proof and she presents none.

She continues to say she's been following your whole life. That she had to say someone once she saw you were getting married. Realistically, you should be thinking she's a stalker, deluded, and/or obsessed with a supposedly famous family and she's invented this storyline to be part of the story.  She could've been a crazy Steam fan who sees you as the interloper in their true love and came to kill you so that Steffy could be free for Liam again and that she's saving Steffy from you. You have NO idea who this woman is and you're hugging her and taking her right into the family party to do who knows what.

Had she shown you one iota of corroborating evidence - a picture of her with your father holding a baby, that she knows you have a birthmark on a specific part of your body, SOMETHING - then maybe I can see you wanting to believe it a bit.

But to not take one bit of evidence? To take this woman who you don't know to see your bride? C'mon man. 

The only person I'm concerned about in the fallout is Ted King because I love me some Ted King and he's being wasted as this dithering dad.

E) I can't decide if Paris and Zende were rude to ditch the wedding reception to go hook up or had the right idea.  Lope need to escape out the back, grab all the kids- including Hayes - and book over to the cottage to shelter in place until the aftermath is over.

Quote

It won't be long before a grown up Diana comes back and Thomas accidentally marries her.

It's all good as long as he hasn't slept with her since she's his aunt :)

But Diana I think would be a great addition, but she'd have to end up with a Spencer or Logan.  Thomas could marry Mary/Erica Warwick which would be funny due to the James/Taylor hook-up.

Whoever is doing Steffy's hair should be fired.  Is that a multicoloured wig?  If not, what is the possible explanation for why anyone who makes their living as a hairstylist would think that looks good?  It's like she dipped the front half of her face in black dye.  Her expression says "OMG this is the first time I've looked in the mirror, what is going on".

Thomas looks like he's auditioning for the part of Larry "Shark" Warton Junior.  Not a good look for him either.

Li Finnegan's expression says that she has known all along exactly who Finn's biological mom is.  Will be interested to hear the whole story.

Whatever happened to Sheila's other kids?  There was Mary who was Rick's babysitter.  A baby we saw named Diana who was Massimo's daughter.  And then of course Ryder and Daisy.  Where are Ryder and Daisy right now?  In prison or free?

It won't be long before a grown up Diana comes back and Thomas accidentally marries her.

That one really pisses me off. Sure, others in those girls' lives helped instigate conflicts between them-- Katie and Taylor at the top of that list--but Liam was the carnival prize who did nothing to pick a side or remove himself out of the frey. If anything he willing jumped right back in when he was with Ivy, by far the best woman to ever put up with him, for no good reason.

I too was mildly annoyed at Steffy for acting like she didn't go after Hope for basically existing. Hope is no saint and she's certainly had her spoiled rich girl moments, but there was one clear bully between them both and I hate TIIC trying to both sides this shit.

Eh, whatever. Steffy's gonna get her karmic payback real soon, I suppose.

[La di Diva]

While Steffy's wedding hair is dreadful, nothing can top the fried 2-tone look she sported at her Wyatt beach wedding.

Of all her marriages, Wyatt was the one were she seemed the happiest, at least in the beginning.

By my count she's had 6 weddings -- 4 to Liam if you include the vow renewal, Wyatt, and now Finn, That seems an awful lot for someone  barely 30 -- even in Soapland where Erica Kane was married 11 times.
