After their snap decision to elope, Niles and Daphne realize their family will be disappointed they didn't get to attend the wedding.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: What?
Martin: I said "I'm coming." And it's not my fault I'm late, it's Daphne's. I don't know where she is. I had to make my own lunch.
Frasier: Oh, dear lord, give it here. Two bags of chips, three puddin' cups, and a root beer.
Martin: What's wrong with it?
Frasier: A, this is not a lunch, and B, I fail to see how it took you so long since you did not make anything but simply transferred smaller containers into larger one. Let's go!

Quote from Roz

Roz: So if you guys have two weddings, when's your anniversary going to be?
Daphne: Well, I suppose to keep up appearances, it'll have to be the second one, won't it?
Niles: Well, we could celebrate two anniversaries. A public one, and then a second, secret one just for us.
Daphne: Oh, I like that. Sort of sexy having an anniversary only two of us know about.
Roz: Three of us.
Niles: I still can't believe we're married.
Daphne: It's our one-day anniversary.
Roz: And we're the only ones who know.

Quote from Niles

Daphne: Well, I better go and figure out what to pack for the honeymoon.
Niles: I'm just bringing sun screen.
Frasier: Pardon me. I have to go and poke out my mind's eye.

Quote from Niles

Frasier: Niles, what you and Daphne shared today was utterly unique.
Niles: You think so?
Frasier: Yes, it was a singular moment. Anyone fooled by a repeat performance would have to be a complete imbecile.
Niles: True.

Quote from Niles

Niles: But, if it's what Daphne wants, I'll support her. We'll get Roz back, we'll find a different judge and we'll just do it all over again. And, it'll be just as perfect as today's was.
Frasier: Fine. But I'm not singing "Wonderful World" again.
Niles: Maybe more perfect.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: How could you tell Roz and not tell your family?
Gertrude: How could you have two weddings without telling your mother about one?
Roz: How could you cheat Alice out of being a flower girl?
Daphne: We just wanted to be married.
Martin: Hold on, I got a question here. [opens the door] You've been married for a week, how come you're not on your honeymoon?
Daphne: Thank you... Martin.

Quote from Niles

Frasier: Yes, if you'll excuse me, I'm in a rush to get to the farmer's market.
Niles: At this hour? I hope you like listless radicchio.

Quote from Daphne

Officiant: Seriously, do you have the rings?
Niles: Oh, no. In my rush to get here, I completely forgot about them.
Daphne: Does this mean we can't get married?
Officiant: It would, if we didn't offer seven different wedding band packages for you to choose from. Now, depending on your budget, we can offer you anything from the "B-Steel My Heart", that's genuine stainless right there, to the "Never Ending Love", which can be returned for up to ninety days, no questions asked.
Daphne: They do seem the nicest.

Quote from Daphne

Daphne: [answering the phone] Hello?
Roz: Daphne, it's Roz. Quick, turn on your TV. My building's on the news.
Daphne: What?
Roz: Some murder/suicide thing, I'm gonna wave to you from my balcony.
Daphne: Darn, I'm not home.
Roz: Where are you?
Daphne: You're not going to believe this, but Niles and I flew to Reno and we're getting married right now!
Roz: You are not!
Daphne: I am so!
Roz: [squeals]
Daphne: [squeals]
Roz: [squeals]
Daphne: [squeals]
Niles: [to Officiant] Apparently, it's some sort of dolphin emergency.

Quote from Daphne

Officiant: You may exchange rings as a symbol of the promises you've made here today. By the power vested in me by the state of Nevada, county of Washoe and the all-new Lucky 7 Resort and Casino, I now pronounce you husband and wife. Good luck. [wedding bells start playing] Hey, don't forget to check out our topless buffet.
Niles: He never said "You may kiss the bride."
Daphne: You may kiss the bride.
