Jim and Pam are one of my favorite TV couples of all time. In my eyes the way their relationship progressed was right on and Jim's toast summed it up just perfectly:
"Four years ago I was just a guy who had a crush on a girl who had a boyfriend, and I had to do the hardest thing that I had ever had to do, which was just to wait. Don't get me wrong, I flirted with her. Pam, I can now admit in front of friends and family that I do know how to make a photo copy...didn't need your help that many times. And do you remember how long it took you to teach me how to drive a stick? I've been driving stick since high school. For a really long time that's all I had. I just had little moments with a girl who saw me as a friend. And a lot of people told me I was crazy to wait this long for a date with a girl who I worked with, but I think even then I knew that I was waiting for my wife."
Unfortunately, it was ruined by his slip-up and Michael's cringeworthy attempt to fix the situation. It was so embarrassing I actually covered my eyes and curled up in a ball on my couch. Andy's injured scrotum, MeeMaw threatening to leave, and Pam ripping her veil all contributed to a wedding weekend to remember. Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, the opening notes of "Forever" filled the church and dancing hell broke loose. At first I just shook my head in disbelief, but as each one of our beloved characters danced down the aisle and Jim and Pam just continued to give each other their trademark looks, I couldn't help think just how perfect it made this wedding.
Other great highlights:
- The dance-off at Andy's honeymoon suite party
- Dwight the womanizer
- I thought their mental snapshot bit was cute--very Jim and Pam.
- Kevin and Oscar being mistaken as a couple
- Kevin's wedding ensemble complete with hairpiece and Kleenex box shoes
- Dwight's turtle wedding present
- Jim and Pam running off to get married by the falls
- Michael hanging out with MeeMaw and possibly spending time with Pam's mom
