I think I would've been more impressed if they'd let the bride ferry up on a Soyuz and conduct the ceremony there.
How the heck can you have a wedding if one of the parties is not present, anyway? I assume there's got to be some limitations on that? After all, we can't have people marrying some unwitting schmuck without their knowledge, right? Would it be limited to some kind of real-time communication if physical presence is impossible?

Careful Timmy, or you might end up all mainstream and normal.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

They also had comics that weren't written until 10 years later, and a Korean War that lasted roughly 7 billion times as the one in our reality did.

I seem to remember there's a three day cooling off period for marriages carried out over subspace. Of course, that may have been a spoof...
