In honor of the 15th anniversary of our favoriteGreys Anatomywedding, weve updated the list with additional nuptials.
It instantly became iconic.
It was an all-timer of a TV-wedding moment forGreys fans and stationery lovers alike.
And now, like any good wedding guest, its time to judge them.
But the romance, the drama, and the dress dont hurt either.
What do you say?
Teddy Altman and Henry Burton
Season 7, Episode 11 Disarm
The vibe:Sterile Courthouse Chic.
:Its memorable only because its happening at all.
Its pretty audacious for Teddy to marry a patient for get him proper health insurance.
Teddy probably doesnt even remember it.
Lets talk reception:It takes place in an OR and the theme is Intense Trauma Surgery.
:Only if the Justice of the Peace had a cold.
:Theres nothing to RSVP to!
We are cheated out of Scott Foley in a tux and thats an injustice I will not stand for.
Emergency kitchen-table C-section wins every time.
Is it romantic?:NO.
These two should not be getting married.
Meredith knows it she calls the wedding and the marriage doomed.
The sky knows it it releases a deluge of rain that day.
Does he just think Amelia had a Slurpee craving?
Oh, Owen, you dummy.
Bridesmaids Meredith and Maggie and best woman April wear dark-purple gowns.
Lets talk reception:Again, its pretty standard.
Theres dinner and dancing in a basic reception hall with twinkle lights hanging from the ceiling.
Some Seattle-based twinkle-light retailer is really making a living off the doctors in this town.
:To dry off from the rain, I guess?
There are at least three more interesting things going on that day.
At a wedding!!
:Itlooksromantic, but we dont spend much time with the bride and groom.
Fashion report, yo:Maggies dress for her real wedding is a tasteful lacy number.
Honestly, both Maggie and Winston look hot as hell here.
The pops of bright florals?
Lets talk reception:Looks like a great beachy party!
Even Cormac Hayes is dancing, and that guy seems mostly allergic to fun.
:We dont get any weepy vows, which is kind of a bummer!
:It is objectively one of the prettiest weddings on this list but kind of boring.
They even have a flower arch!Greysloves a good flower arch.
:All the events before and after this tiny ceremony are much more memorable than the ceremony itself.
Although they do still find time to take enough photos for a wedding album.
Did they tell the photographer that they just ran away together from Aprils other wedding?
Can I get a copy?
Lets talk reception:Just motel sex, I guess.
:Since we already know these two dont make it, you may need them for sadness reasons.
:Well, its definitely a surprise.
So, yes, the WTF factor will stay with people for a long time.
:Its great that April leaves her tenure onGreys Anatomywith a happy ending, but lets get real.
Who is moved by this couple?
Lets talk reception:Lets assume they piggyback on Alex and Jos.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall when they walk in and tell everyone their news.
Arizona walks April down the aisle (tears!)
and Jackson is there because he is Aprils person forever and always.
[Insert ugly crying noises here.]
:I have an appointment, but Ill definitely look at some photos, maybe?
Is it memorable?:Nope.
Give me Post-it Note wedding or give me death.
From that standpoint, it is pretty romantic.
Also, those two are so giddy throughout the very short process, it is adorable.
Fashion report, kindly:Sensible pantsuits all around!
Lets talk reception:A simple snuggle sesh with Zola in the hospital.
Add in a piece of cake, and weve got ourselves a real party.
:Its always nice seeing Meredith and Derek so happy, but no need for tears here.
:Very skippable, especially if you sent a gift after their first wedding.
Its all pretty memorable and definitely hilarious.
Its nothing special, but it is situationally appropriate.
Lets talk reception:Honestly, having your wedding at a bar might be a genius idea?
:For that priests niece, yes!!
:Teddy and Owen are basically a bicycle crash (too soon, Father?)
in human couple form, so I would feel compelled to see this go down.
You go, hospital chapel!
Lets talk reception:This one looks fun!
Derek wouldve loved it.
:Skip the ceremony, head straight to the after-party.
:Eh, mainly because everyone knows Cristina and Owen are rushing into this thing post-season-six hospital shooting.
There are low expectations for this working out.
Fashion report, just:Have Cristina and Meredith ever looked better?
:Only to see Cristina in that dress.
Callie Torres and Arizona Robbins
The vibe:Outdoor Feminine Circus-Tent Dreamscape.
Its a very nice speech which earns Bailey the privilege of being the officiant at the wedding.
Im sorry, the privilege is ours.
:Theres no big, swoon-worthy moment, but the love is real between Callie and AZ.
Lets talk reception:Its fun!
Theres lots of dancing and a giant cake.
What more could you want, really?
RSVP?:Yes!
Its fun and loving and Bailey is running the show, so you better be there.
Why dont more people get married in the winter?
:Guests will remember having to wait five hours for the bride to show up.
Bailey is such a boss.
:Oh, very.
Callie, Arizona, and Meredith wear whatever red dresses they have in their closets to be Baileys bridesmaids.
Lets talk reception:On the plus side, there is macaroni-and-cheese in cupcake form.
The negative, the DJ wears a fedora.
Its a wash.
Are tissues required?
:Webber picks Bailey up in a limo!
Bailey tells Ben that she loves him more than [she] can hold in [her] heart!
Webber arrives after Adele has died and imagines him and his wife dancing on their wedding day!
Are you a robot?
Of course you need tissues!
:For both the macaroni-and-cheese cupcakes and the couple who are so very much in love, yes.
Simone Griffith and Trey Delgado (and not Lucas Adams!!)
:A bride takes off when shes halfway down the aisle?
Ill never forget it!
:For Simone and Trey?
Not even a little bit.
For Simone and Lucas?
Oh, baby, yes.
She needs to follow her heart!
Either way, Im into it.
:Only for wiping the sweat while watching Simone and Lucas finally gothere.
Jo Wilson and Alex Karev
The vibe:Last-Minute Ferry-Boat Realness.
Its nice to see them laugh and love and get a freaking win for once.
Lets talk reception:Party at Jacksons house!
That crew has been drinking all day, so its probably v. messy.
That seems appropriate for Alex and Jo.
:It seems like an all-day hoot, so Im in.
Cristina Yang and Preston Burke
Season 3, Episode 25 Didnt We Almost Have It All?
It is memorable before it even gets started … and then it is memorable because itnevergets started.
All the way to Switzerland, apparently.
This wedding is the opposite of romantic.
It stomps on hearts and never looks back.
The dress is best remembered for Meredith having to cut a weeping Cristina out of it.
Heres hoping they burned that thing.
Lets talk reception:Things are too dire for even a Twisted Sister Dance It Out session.
:If Cristinas heartbreak doesnt get you, the vision of sisterhood as Meredith holds her best friend might.
:At the time, it was the event of the year.
You cant miss that.
Is it memorable?:Very!
:Are you crazy?
Its a cancer wedding, so yes!
Whats more romantic than two people trying to pledge their love to one another before one of them dies?
In what world,Greys?!
Lets talk reception:We never make it there because Izzie is deteriorating rapidly.
:Izzie makes Cristina her maid of honor because Cristina tried to save her life.
Izzie gets up out of her wheelchair and attempts to walk down the aisle.
When Izzie falters, George walks her the rest of the way.
Alex tells her that today, becoming responsible for her, makes him a true man.
So yes, all the tissues are required.
:Its the most gorgeous, saddest wedding you will ever lay your misty eyes on.
Its in a barn!
There are wooden directional signs!
There are little tins of mints that say Mint to Be on your way in!
AND THERE ARE BUTTERFLIES IN BOXES!
:Did you read what I just wrote?
It is extremely romantic and it makes my stomach tingle every time I see it.
Just, you know, not for the groom.
This wedding is picture-perfect, although they never make it to the pictures thanks to Jacksons big moment.
Lets talk reception:There isnt one!
Though I imagine the spread was going to be wonderful.
They probably were going to serve pies or something equally as twee.
RSVP?:Yes!
I live for the DRAMA.
:For Meredith and Derek, it is perfect.
Fashion report, kindly:Wear a freshly pressed pair of scrubs and call it a day.
Lets talk reception:Lets not?
Ill take a DJ wearing a fedora over that any day.
:To the most exclusive wedding of the century?
Uh, yes, yes, one-thousand times yes.
