Days: Wedding Ceremonies

Days had two marriages and two weddings, though three couples wished to be wed. Below are my thoughts.

Lani and Eli were scheduled to get married, her mother returned and sang. Sadly Lani lied and ended her engagement to Eli and stopped their wedding. Eli has no idea that Lani was doing this to protect his grandmother Julie. If Lani married Eli, Gabi planned to stop Julie's donated heart (from her late husband Stefan). Since Lani was the one who shot Stefan, she felt responsible for what happened. Instead of telling the truth to everyone destroying Gabi's leverage, Lani lied and told Eli she didn't love him enough to marry him. Actually she loves him too much to see him in pain over the death of his grandmother, and would fear if he found out why what he would do.

Since Lani and Eli didn't wed, Adrienne and Jack both spoke up about getting married. Adrienne and Justin who had missed the non-ceremony, had been celebrating Justin getting a marriage license. Jack also went to get one, which thrilled Jennifer. So the siblings ended up sharing their wedding day, and using Marlena to marry them. Due to the abruptness, only JJ and Sonny were there and none of their other adult children.

I wasn't sold on the idea of anyone co-opting Lani and Eli's day for their own wedding. Yes, the reception was still going to happen, but having a disastrous wedding and then using the facilities. Why do I think that is a recipe for a mistake and something awful will occur.
