I love that Teddy has a "Let's get married in front of all our friends in less than 30 minutes" plan all sorted out and on standby, since he knows enough speedsters and teleporters to make it practical.

[nightauditguy]

Why did Cassie feel the need to grow? Couldn't she just move to the front?

[didiji]

Yeah, the same thought crossed my mind.

[matrix_dragon]

Sometimes I think Pym particles know it's a comic, and trigger based off the need to take up group shots.

[cainofdreaming]

Wouldn't be the first Pym invention that becomes inadvertently sentient.

[daydreamingtugrul]

But how will we know it's Cassie unless she grows?

[mastermahan]

Prodigy is standing behind her, annoyed he can't see.

[zachbeacon]

She needed the extra reach to catch the bouquet?

[lieut_kettch]

The other alternative is to shrink and stand on someone's shoulder.

[scorntx]

Cass... shrink?
Why, that's a ridiculous concept! The height of madness!

[super_fly]

The tailor got the measurements wrong and there wasn't time to do alterations

[didiji]

Such a beautiful moment, we need more of those! :D

[scorntx]

*Kermit-style flailing*

Yaaaaay!

also somewhat smaller yay for Eli showing up again.

(Now, I'mma assume Wanda is standing juuust off to the side, completely ignoring anything that says otherwise.
Because Wanda is standing right there and she's fine and that's all there is to it the end.)

[matrix_dragon]

Wanda is there. She is happy. The writers are not making her the whipping girl for whatever horrible thing they've decided to do this time. She is at peace. Any appearance of her in the comics is a Life Model Decoy Skrull from an alternate universe.

[lordultimus]

In fairness, this looks like a super private wedding, possibly even one done on the fly given that sign.

[scorntx]

They invited Pietro and Tommy.
And America's right there, so there's no excuse for her not being there that'll fly short of being totally dead.

[cainofdreaming]

Well, she was last seen on Mutant Zombie Island, formerly (as in before her visit) known as Genosha.

[icon_uk]

Pietro and Tommy are there at least partly because they have super-speed

As the preview shows, they're sorting this out in under half an hour.

[scorntx]

America can create portals that go across freaking universes.

All they'd have to do is phone Wanda up, ask where she is and have her kick open a portal and get her.
(And if they called Pietro, why in sanity's name would they not get Wanda, or would he not check to see she's there?)

[bruinsfan]

What I want to know is where are Billy's parents. I'd think them attending would be a top priority. Wanda barely knows Billy (and maybe Teddy not at all), but they raised him!

[scorntx]

It's the law of being a fictional character who's adopted.
Once you find it out, the people who actually raised you Don't Matter.

(And Wanda has met Teddy.
... don't know they've interacted much, but they have at least met once.)

[bruinsfan]

But Billy isn't even adopted!

Either the essences of Wanda's twins bonded to pre-existing children after Agatha Harkness erased them, or they were thrown back in time to reincarnate as the new children conceived by other parents. If not, how could Billy be older than Franklin Richards, who was roughly kindergarten age when Wanda gave birth (in publication year 1985)?

[onsokumaru]

Is that Pietro? I thought that was Noh Varr.

[bruinsfan]

I assumed Magneto. He's made more effort to be close to Billy and Tommy than Pietro has, hasn't he?

[scorntx]

Magneto'd be awkward, what with being part of Krakoa.
And, y'know, the whole "demonising the woman who until recently he thought was his daughter" thing they got going on.

[bruinsfan]

I suspect no one does that within earshot of him.

[cyberghostface]

Can you please make the title less spoilery?

[daydreamingtugrul]

I went through the trouble of finding and resetting my password just to say and repeat this. I can't believe nobody, not even the mods picked this up.

[comicbookgal52]

This is wonderful! I've been following Teddy and Billy since the Young Avengers 12 issue series and this fills me with joy.

[lordultimus]

"Why let Northstar have all the fun?"

[onsokumaru]

I usually dislike marriage issues, but I actually wish we got one for this. Maybe they could do a second marriage with a lot of guests?)
There would be fun moments with Roberto, maybe some drama with Wanda being there alongside mutants like David, and of course a loooot of godly mischief (and you know, I'm actually surprised he didn't find a way to crash into this stealth marriage)

[alliterator]

Empyre: Avengers Aftermath #1 will show the actual wedding apparently.

[shadowpsykie]

oh so they survive.... yay!.... which of the other gays dies :(

[bruinsfan]

D-Man suddenly looks up startled from whatever he was doing and spontaneously combusts...

[cainofdreaming]

"I just almost bled to death in Ravencroft! I thought that would tide me over one event, at the very least!"

[deh_tommy]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[beoweasel]

Noooo, we can't have them getting married! That will make them totally unrelatable to the audience! Quick, somebody mortally wound Scarlet Witch so Wiccan has to make a deal with Mephisto or something!

[siamesa]

Yay! Young Avengers was the comic that got me into Marvel, and I won’t deny I had the “and we’re just so glad you two found each other!” scene running through my head when I finally started coming out to my parents (who thankfully reacted about the same way)
