The episodes are out of order because of the way the producers made the episodes.

Snow Falls
episode 03

He and Snow White first met when he was engaged to another princess, Annette, and was riding to the wedding. Snow White stole a pouch that had his mother's wedding ring in it. He then captured her and threatened to turn her in to the Evil Queen unless she gives him back his ring. They then fight the Troll Group which Snow sold the ring to and return it to him. Afterwords, they go their separate paths, looking very reluctant to do so.

Pilot
episode 01

However, at their wedding the Evil Queen enters and promises to destroy their happiness with the Dark Curse just as they are about to kiss. It is not known yet how Snow White and Prince Charming end up marrying. Snow becomes pregnant, and they discover that their child will be their savior from Rumpelstiltskin, whom the pair visited in prison. Snow goes into labour just as the curse approaches. James takes newborn baby Emma and puts her into the wardrobe, but is stabbed immediately afterwards. Snow finds him and kisses him, but he stays unconscious (the Evil Queen and Snow White presumed he was dead, but in Storybrooke, we find out he isn't and is in a coma) and she's promptly ravaged by the Dark Curse.
