Line 24:
* {{spoiler|Ethan and Lilah}} in ''[[Ctrl+Alt+Del]]'' run away to Jamaica, and then decide to have the big wedding after all. Hiding their already-married status until the big wedding day becomes a big plot point (and a source of blackmail for one character).
* Michael and Deanna in ''[[For Better or For Worse]]'' secretly got married before they moved in together, but later had a big fancy wedding for Deanna's mother to plan.
* ''[[The Wedding Banquet]]'': Wai-tong and Wei-wei have a low-key wedding, but a chance encounter with an old friend of Wai-tong's father leads them to organize a by-the-book traditional wedding ceremony, complete with lavish banquet and dozens of guests.
* In ''Abie's Irish Rose'', Abie and Rose Mary ultimately have ''three'' weddings: a Methodist wedding before their feuding parents get involved, a Jewish wedding to please Abie's father, and a Catholic wedding to please Rose Mary's father.
* On ''[[Dharma and Greg]],'' the title couple elope [[Fourth Date Marriage|on their first date]], getting married in Vegas. Naturally Greg's conservative parents are shocked, and the two wind up having a more traditional ceremony a few episodes later.
* In ''[[The Princess and the Frog]]'', Tiana and Naveen's ''real'' wedding happens in the swamp while they're frogs, but once they become human again, they have a more standard ceremony in a church.
=== Plan First, Elope Later ===
Line 49:
* On ''[[Gilmore Girls]]'' Lane and Zach's weddings put an interesting twist on this pattern. The first wedding is a Buddhist wedding to satisfy Lane's grandmother from Korea, the second wedding is a proper Seventh Day Adventist wedding for Lane's mother and extended family in America, and then the reception is done in a style more appropriate to the couple themselves.
* In ''Papa Married a Mormon'', precursor to ''[[The Great Brain]]'' books, Tom,Sr. and Tena marry four times. Tom whisks Tena away to Salt Lake City, where they get married by a justice of the peace a few days before her eighteenth birthday. When she turns eighteen, they go back and marry again. Shortly before the birth of their first child, the bishop agrees to marry them in a private Mormon ceremony and even fudges the date so no one will say anything about the child. Years later, they have small Catholic ceremony when Tom, Sr is on his deathbed.
* Will Riker and Deanna Troi in ''[[Star Trek: Nemesis]]'' have a Starfleet wedding in dress uniform on the ''Enterprise'', and then a Betazoid ceremony for Lwaxanna's benefit. We don't get to see that one.
** [[Naked People Are Funny|It was quite]] [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome|a shame that we didn't]].
* In [[Night Court]], Bull Shannon - noting that most of his friends and family are at each other's throats regarding the plans for his upcoming wedding - winds up improvising a ceremony on the courthouse roof while insuring that everyone's complaints get addressed.
