Pt. 1

S3 E14: It's 1991 and Paul and Jamie are planning their wedding. There's a lot to think about and do, from selecting a date and sending the invitations, to finding a caterer, choosing clothes and hiring a band. However, they're having a hard time keeping the guest list under control, especially since their parents keep finding old friends and acquaintances to invite. And everyone is more than willing to give them advice. However, when Jamie discovers that Sylvia Buchman's name is misspelled on the invitations, she and Paul are forced to act ... and act fast. Finding that Paul already mailed the invitations, Jamie drags him out to stop them from being sent. And, after successfully bribing the letter carrier with an invitation of his own, they get them back -- only to have Sylvia drop by unexpectedly and discover the mistake anyway. Meanwhile, Paul lobbies heavily to use Ira's band, but Jamie wants to keep looking. In addition, Paul and Jamie are also supposed to be writing their own vows, though they haven't started yet. And, as the presents begin to arrive, producing a wealth of gravy boats, everyone who was invited seems to be coming, making their crisis with the guest list even worse. The tension mounts, aggravating Jamie's smoking habit and causing Paul to spend more and more time seeking refuge in the TV. However, it's when the families meet to sample the caterer's menu that Paul and Jamie begin to have second thoughts. As if she hasn't enough to think about already, Jamie discovers that it is customary for the bride and groom to get each other gifts. And then there's the matter of a band. But when Paul asks Ira, Jamie takes offense but agrees to hear them play their next date -- at a state prison.
