(Cut to the side room)
Rachel: Gunther, what the hell is the matter with you? Are you insane or something?
Gunther: I love you. You cant marry him, hes not good enough for you.

Rachel: Ross! Stop it!
Ross: (protesting) Hes ruined our wedding!
Rachel: Go outside and wait for me, Ill handle this.
Ross: But .
Rachel: Go!
Ross: Fine. (to Gunther) Dont bother coming to the reception. Consider yourself uninvited.
Rachel: Ross!
Ross: Im leaving, Im leaving.
Minister: Well wait for you outside. Take all the time you need.
Rachel: Thanks. (The minister leaves and closes the door) Gunther, Im gonna wipe that smile off your face with my fist!
(Cut to the ballroom Ross has returned to reassure the guests)
Ross: Well be resuming the ceremony in a couple of minutes, thanks for your patience.
Monica: Are you ok?
Ross: I am gonna kill Gunther. I cant believe this.
Phoebe: I knew this was gonna happen. Gunthers been in love with Rachel for a long time.
Ross: What?!
Phoebe: Nothing.
(Jennifer and Brad walk up)
Jennifer: I must say this is the most interesting wedding Ive ever been to.
Joey: You obviously didnt come to Rosss wedding when he married Emily.
Brad: Right, the one where he said Rachels name instead of Emilys.
Ross: (to Joey) Thanks for bringing that up.
Phoebe: My guitars in the limo. Do you want me to entertain the guests?
Chandler: We want the guests to stay, not leave Phoebe.
(Dr. and Mrs. Green and Mr. and Mrs. Geller approach)
Dr. Green: Dr. Wethead, whats going on?
Ross: Just a minor delay, Rachel will be right out.
Dr. Green: (pointing to Jennifer) Thats Rachel right there, lets get on with it.
Sandra: Thats Jennifer Aniston Leonard. Geez, you cant even recognize your own daughter.
Judy: Are you ok Ross?
Ross: No mom, Im not ok. A coffee shop manager has ruined my wedding.
Jack: It wouldnt be the first wedding of yours ruined son. Youve got to roll with the punches. (Ross glares at his father) Im just saying, you couldve said someone elses name again.
(Cut to the side room Rachel and Gunther, whos holding a napkin to his nose, are talking)
Rachel: Gunther, you are, or after this, were my friend. But youve got to understand something, Im in love with Ross. Ive always loved Ross and always will.
Gunther: But he slept with Chloe. He broke your heart.
Rachel: And I forgave him. Thats what love is all about. I dont love you Gunther and I never will.
Gunther: Nevers a strong word.
Rachel: Do you want me to hit you in the face again?
Gunther: No.
Rachel: Then listen to me closely, I love Ross and Ross is the one for me. You and me, never gonna happen. Besides, I didnt date Ross for three years after he cheated on me, you had your chance to ask me out but you never seized it. Face it, you blew it.
Gunther: Would you have gone out with me if I had asked?
Rachel: Truthfully?
Gunther: Truthfully.
Rachel: No. (Gunther is crushed) Youre just not my type. I am sorry. But somebody will love you Gunther, youre a good person.
Gunther: But not you.
Rachel: Ok, how many different ways do I have to say it?
Gunther: Sorry.
Rachel: What about the girl you brought to the wedding? Do you like her?
Gunther: Yeah.
Rachel: Well there you go, thats half the battle. Shes obviously interested in you or she wouldnt be here with you.
Gunther: You think?
Rachel: Yeah. Now can I go back to my wedding?
Gunther: Yeah. Im sorry Rachel.
Rachel: Id say its ok, but your timing to tell me all this really sucked. You do realize that its probably best if you leave the wedding.
Gunther: Yeah. Apologize to Ross for me. He still wants to kick my ass.
Rachel: Dont worry about Ross, Ill handle him.
Gunther: How?
Rachel: He lives in fear, he knows Ill kick his ass.
(Cut to the ballroom Rachel returns. The guests get very quiet)
Ross: (to the guests) It looks like were ready to resume. (to Rachel) Is everything cool?
Rachel: Lets do it. I love you.
Ross: I love you too.
(everyone returns to their places)
Minister: Ok, where were we?
Joey: The part about objecting.
Chandler: Shut up Joey!
Monica: Would you two knock it off please?
Minister: Ok, lets try this again. Today we are here to celebrate Rachel and Rosss love for one another and they have asked you in the audience to share in their display of their love for each other. If there is anyone here who has any reason why these two shouldn't wed, speak now or forever hold your peace. (Pause)
Woman: I object!
Ross: What the hell is going on around here? Who is it this time? (Turns to see Emily at the back of the audience)
Emily: Well isnt revenge sweet?
Minister: Here we go again.
Rachel: I should have killed her when I had the chance! (to Ross) Howd she get in here?
Ross: I dunno.
Minister: Ladies and gentlemen, we have to take another short break and work out this problem. Well be right back. Ross, Rachel and miss, please follow me.
(Ross, Rachel, Emily and the Minister go to the side room)
Monica: Howd she get in here?
Phoebe: Yeah, she called for directions last night so I told her where wed be.
Chandler: You told Rosss ex-wife, Emily, where the wedding was gonna be? What are you, stupid or something?
Phoebe: I was just trying to be nice, how was I supposed to know that shed show up and ruin the wedding?
Monica: Ah, the fact that Rachel ruined hers didnt clue you in?
Chandler: Apparently not. But that doesnt explain how she knew it was today. (Joey starts walking away) Joey, where are you going?
Joey: Huh?
Chandler: You told Emily when the wedding was didnt you?
Joey: Maybe.
Monica: Joey!
Phoebe: And you guys think Im stupid.
Joey: Look Im sorry. I bumped into her on the street and I didnt know what to say.
Chandler: How about hi! Nice to see you! Goodbye!
Monica: (pushing Chandler aside) What did you say?
Joey: She asked what everyone was up to and I mentioned that Ross and Rachel were getting married. She wanted to know when so I told her. Look, I figured she go back to London, how was I supposed to know that she show up here?
(Jennifer and Brad approach again)
Jennifer: Two for two.
Monica: Huh?
Jennifer: Ross and Rachel each have one objection each, I cant wait to see who the tie breaker is.
Brad: Cut it out Jen. (to Chandler) So that was Emily.
Chandler: Yup, in the flesh.
Brad: One question, what was Ross thinking? Shes, shes, shes, well I cant describe how ugly she is.
Jennifer: Thats not nice Brad. You were ugly once too.
Brad: Yeah, when I was first born and had blood all over me.
(Dr. Green, Mrs. Green, Mr. Geller and Mrs. Geller approach)
Jack: This is worst then when he said Rachels name at his last wedding.
Sandra: Jack, his last wedding was to Rachel. They got married in Vegas remember?
Dr. Green: That wasnt a real wedding. Everyone knows that Vegas weddings are only recognized in Vegas.
Sandra: How did you become a doctor?
Judy: I wouldve expected this at Monicas wedding, but never Rosss.
Monica: Ah Mom, Im standing right here!
Judy: Its ok sweetie, I didnt happen now, did it?
Chandler: Come on Mon, lets go for a walk.
Monica: I hate that woman sometimes.
Phoebe: So Dr. Green, have you met Jennifer and Brad?
Jennifer: Its a pleasure to meet you, Im Jennifer and this is my husband Brad.
Brad: Nice to meet you sir.
Dr. Green: Nice to meet you both. (to Brad) Werent you in that movie Legends of the Fall?
Brad: Yes, I was.
Dr. Green: (to Jennifer) And you were in The Object of My Affection.
Jennifer: Uh huh.
Dr. Green: Youre both movie stars. What are you doing at my daughters wedding?
Jennifer: Were friends of Ross and Rachels.
Brad: Oh by the way, your eldest daughter asked me to sign her fake breasts.
Dr. Green: And I wonder why cant that one get married?
(Cut to the side room)
Minister: (to Emily) Ok. Whats your problem with these two getting married?
Emily: I dont have a problem actually. Rachel just ruined my marriage to Ross before it even started, thats all. Lets call this revenge.
Rachel: Listen missy, I didnt ruin your marriage to Ross, youre the one who couldnt stand the fact that we were still close friends!
Emily: Well consider us even.
(Camera cuts to Ross who is laughing)
Rachel: What is so funny? This wench has ruined our wedding!
Ross: And Gunther didnt?
Rachel: Dont start with me.
Ross: Calm down Rach. Im just laughing cause I cant believe that I was once in love with her. Are we done here?
Emily: Let me get this straight, I come here to ruin your wedding to Rachel, and all you do is laugh at me?
Ross: Pretty much. Look Emily, youre from my past and there you will stay. You cant do anything to screw up my life anymore than you already have. (to Rachel) Im really sorry about this Rach, but dont let a vengeful ex-wife of mine ruin our wedding day. I love you. Hell, I was still in love with you when I married Emily. Why do you think I said your name at the altar?
Emily: What?!
Rachel: You heard him. He was still in love with me. As they say in your country, you are the weakest link, goodbye!
(Ross opens the door and Emily leaves)
Minister: After today, Im getting out of this business. Are we ready to resume?
Rachel: Yeah and I promise, no more interruptions.
Ross: Just in case, can we skip the objection part?
(Cut to the ballroom Ross and Rachel return. The guests get very quiet again)
Ross: Can I have your attention please?
Rachel: Its already quiet.
Ross: Thanks. (pause) Im gonna do this myself. Is there anybody else here who thinks Rachel and I shouldnt wed? (long pause) Great. Were gonna go get married now. Enjoy the show.
Joey: I think theyve already seen enough of a show. (Rachel and Ross glare at Joey) (Joey to Chandler) Im just saying.
Chandler: Shut up Joey.
Minister: Ok. Thanks for your patience folks. Ok, lets get these guys wed, theres another wedding ceremony in here in ten minutes.
Rachel: (to the Minister) Can we start over? Itd really be better if we could just start over.
Minister: (to Rachel) No time for that dear.
Ross: Its ok Rach, its just great that were actually finally gonna be married again.
Minister: You guys have already been married once?
Rachel: Yeah but we were drunk.
Ross: And in Vegas. You know what they say about Vegas .
Minister: That you get married?
Rachel: Exactly. We better get on with the ceremony.
Minister: Right. Where was I?
Joey: Is there any reason why these two shouldnt wed.
Ross: Shut up Joey!
Joey: (to Chandler) Why does everyone keep telling me to shut up? Im only trying to help.
Chandler: Shut up Joey!
Minister: We are here to celebrate Rachel and Rosss love for one another and they have asked you in the audience to share in their display of their love for each other. Ross and Rachel, please stand. (Ross and Rachel stand) May I have the rings please. (Ben approaches and gives the Minister the pillow with the rings on it) Thank you son.
Ben: Youre welcome dude.
Ross: (to Joey, who is laughing) Joey!
Minister: Rachel, while placing this ring on Rosss hand, repeat after me. I, Rachel, take thee Ross to be my lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death parts us.
Rachel: (who is crying) I, Rachel, take thee Ross to be my lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death parts us.
Minister: Now, Ross, while placing this ring on Rachels hand, repeat after me. I, Ross, take thee Rachel to be my lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death parts us.
Ross: (who has a big grin on his face) I, Ross, take thee Rachel to be my lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death parts us.
Minister: These rings are a symbol of your love for one another. Wear them always and you will never be without the other. Ladies and Gentlemen, by the power invested in me by the State of New York, I now pronounce Ross and Rachel, Husband and Wife. (to Ross) You may kiss the bride.
(Ross kisses Rachel and the invited guests give them a standing ovation)
Monica: (to Phoebe) I didnt get a standing ovation at my wedding.
Phoebe: You also didnt have to people object at your wedding. I think the guests are just happy that the wedding is finally over.
Chandler: And the crowd goes wild. Geez, you think they hit a grand slam or something.
Joey: From the way Ross is grabbing Rachels ass, I think theyre about to.
Ross: (breaking the kiss to Rachel) I love you Mrs. Geller.
Rachel: I love you Dr. Geller.
Ross: One thing, whos a better kisser? Me or Monica?
Rachel: You know?
Ross: I know. You told me in Vegas.
