Line 7:
* [[Broken Aesop]]: The lesson of this episode seems to be "don't be too possessive of your family members when they're getting married - you're not losing them forever". The moral is delivered very strongly by the reprise of "B.B.B.F.F.", and Twilight's realization that instead of gaining a sister, she's just lost a brother. She turned out to have been right all along, breaking the aesop... but [[Tropes Are Not Bad|it still got the message across]].
** Helped by the end of the second part, when Shining Armour tells her that he convinced Cadence by telling her that she wasn't just getting a husband, she was getting a great sister.
* [[Broken Base]]: Even before The Hub's actual premiere, a few fans are calling [[Executive Meddling]] on this two-parter, since it concerns a very frilly, girlish wedding (even for ''this'' show) of two characters only introduced this episode that [[Ass Pull|no one has ever heard of before]] and [[Remember the New Guy?|no character ever mentioned]], for the sake of Hasbro's intense marketing, while other bronies are simply calling it a fitting way to end of the second season and will watch it on TV anyway.
** Yes, Twilight turned out to be right about the Cadance we saw and had anyone listened to her, a disaster would have been prevented, but were the rest of the Mane 6 and Celestia really just being [[Jerkass|Jerkasses]] who forgot the [[Aesop Amnesia|aesop]] of [[My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 E3 Lesson Zero|"Lesson Zero"]] or were their reactions justified by how Twilight had been [[Big Brother Complex|acting]] [[Clingy Jealous Girl|lately]]? Fans can't decide.
** Even among those that enjoyed the episode, a common adjective used to describe it is "fanfiction-y".
Line 13:
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: Cadence {{spoiler|´s Impostor}} trying to dictate what Shining Armor can or cannot wear and hurting him when he disagreed with her made their relationship creepily abusive.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: [[Up to Eleven]] with [http://www.reddit.com/r/mylittlepony/comments/sm22p/a_spoiler_in_the_song/ this]. And [[Word of God]] says [https://twitter.com/#!/dannyimusic/status/193926339043147777 yes, that was intentional.]
* [[Getting Smilies Painted
** This ''might'' be justified due to the fact that what they were fighting about was something really stupid (basically, Wildfire wanted to get a hooficure and her boyfriend didn't want her to).
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: The Mane 6 are bridesmaids? Now this [http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/28730?search=applejack picture] makes sense.
Line 24:
* [[Rescued From the Scrappy Heap]]: Cadence for some people.
* [[Stealth Pun]]: Celestia takes care of the day, Luna takes care of the night, and Cadance takes care of the twilight.
* [[Straw Man Has a Point|Strawmare Has a Point]]: Really, if you want a mature and dignified royal wedding reception, Pinkie makes as much sense as the arranger as [[Pee
* [[Tastes Like Diabetes]]: Little Twilight and Cadence friendship dance.
* [[The Woobie]]: Twilight. Dear Celestia, Twilight.
