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 Daphne

Niles: Remember how excited we were at our first wedding?
Daphne: Yeah, we were both shaking.
Niles: Yeah.
Daphne: Hey, I noticed the first time you promised me your honesty and protection, but not the second time.
Niles: No, because I vowed to always be true and to be your constant champion. It's the same thing.
Daphne: I suppose.
Niles: You liked it better the first way. [She nods.] Okay, we can go back to that.
Daphne: Thanks.
Niles: You making any changes?
Daphne: Nope, same old, same old.

Frasier: Oh, dear lord, is that... Donny? Everybody, look at your shoes.

Quote from Frasier

Donny: Wait a minute, Daph... is that Daphne?
Daphne: Donny?
Donny: Hey.
Daphne: What a surprise.
Donny: Everybody. Boy, I hope this isn't uncomfortable.
Frasier: No, no, not at all. Say, is that a drinking fountain over there?
Martin: Sure looks like one.

Quote from Frasier

Daphne: I'm sorry everyone, but Niles and I, we're already married.
Gertrude: What?
Frasier: Mrs. Moon, I'm afraid it's true. Niles and Daphne are already married, and they were simply trying to spare your feelings.
Roz: You knew about Reno?
Frasier: I was talking about yesterday. What happened in Reno?
Roz: They got married yesterday?
Gertrude: This is all a lie?
Daphne: No, yesterday was a lie. We eloped last week.
Martin: I thought you had to wait for the license.
Niles: That's why we went to Reno.
Frasier: Why didn't you tell us?
Niles: We thought you'd be insulted.
Frasier: I'm insulted now!

Quote from Daphne

Niles: I hope you can all forgive us.
Frasier: Of course, your happiness that's what's important.
Daphne: This is such a relief.
Daphne: It just felt wrong to start off a marriage with a lie.
Gertrude: Um, was the first one at least in front of a minister?
Daphne: Of course.
