“White Wedding” · Season 7, Episode 20

In this episode: Meredith Grey (3), Miranda Bailey (2), Callie Torres (2), Derek Shepherd (1), Arizona Robbins (1)

[voiceover] Germs, disease, toxins, our bodies encounter dangers all the time, just beneath the surface, hidden. Whether you realize it or not, your body is constantly protecting itself. Every time you blink your eye, you wash away thousands of unwanted microbes. Breathe in too much unwanted pollen and you sneeze. The body knows when it's encountered something that doesn't belong. The body detects the invader, it releases its white blood cells, and it attacks.

You realize your door is unlocked? I could be anyone. I could be a burglar coming to burglar you. Where's the baby? [Callie shows her the baby on the monitor, she smiles] Oh, I could be a baby-napper trying to baby-nap you.

I know why they sent you and it doesn't matter what you say, the wedding's still off. My mom's right, it's a joke. It's not a wedding, and it's not happening. I can't have a priest; I no longer have a minister. [sobs] I'm not being given away by my dad, the wedding isn't legal, what's the point? This isn't a wedding, it's not even in a church, it's nothing. It's a couple of girls playing dress up. It's not real, it's not real.

[sighs] Okay, first of all, you do not need the law or a priest or your mother to make your wedding real. And the church can be anywhere you want it to be. In a field, on a mountain, right here in this room, anywhere because where do you think God is? Come on, He's in you. He's in me. Just right here, in the middle of us. Your church just hasn't caught up to God yet. Your mother, she hasn't caught up to God yet. And, by the way, she may not ever catch up, but it's okay. It's okay. If you are willing to stand up in front of your friends and your family, and God, and commit yourself to another human being to give yourself in that kind of partnership for better or worse in sickness and in health. Honey, that is a marriage. That is real, and that's all that matters. Besides, I got legally married to a man in a church. Look how well that turned out. [laughs]'

Applicants Grey and Shepherd...

That'd be us.

JJudge

I need to see some ID. Okay, this seems to be in order, I'll jump right in. We are here today to participate in a marital union...

...To celebrate love and happiness and loyalty, and in my opinion, a little bit of magic.

JJudge

In the form and regulations of the state of Washington,

To bring together two exceptional and beautiful human beings...

JJudge

Since it is your intention to enter into marriage, join hands, and repeat after me. I, Derek Shepherd...

I, Derek Shepherd...

I take you, Calliope Torres to be my wife.

For better or for worse in good times and in bad...

I choose you to be the one whom I spend my life...

I love you.

I love you.

JJudge

Okay, you sign there, and you sign there. [they both sign] By these documents and according to the state law of Washington...

Okay, I hereby pronounce you wife and wife. [Callie and Arizona kiss]

JJudge

Congratulations.

Why, thank you.

[voiceover] Just when we think we figured things out, the universe throws us a curveball. So, we have to improvise. We find happiness in unexpected places. We find ourselves back to the things that matter the most. The universe is funny that way. Sometimes it just has a way of making sure we wind up exactly where we belong.
