It was very touching how both Archie and Belle's father could be there. So much love from all of Belle and Rumple's extended friends and family, so sweet to see the happy tears flowing from such a big crowd.

In all honesty though, they should have waited until next season to  have the wedding. The setting was gorgeous, the dress was really nice, but it felt so rushed. Everyone was at Granny's celebrating the naming of the baby, there was no one there!! Surely Ruby, Granny, Grumpy, would have wanted to be there?? I'd love to see a Rumbelle baby, Rumple will be adorable (and hilariously overprotective), but as far as the wedding goes, and I cannot get over this, THERE WAS NO ONE EFFING THERE!!

Besides Rumple was not ready to get married. The dagger switcheroo is proof of that. He loves Belle, I don't doubt that, but the man is not right in the head. I have a feeling that when the reasoning behind that is revealed it will be pure and uttter Rumple-logic. It will make sense to him, and him alone. And after being locked up by Zelena, who was doing God knows what to him, with his son's consciousness rattling around in his head PTSD is a strong possibility.

Also, I'm an avid Rumbeller, I swear... I feel the need to point that out after reading through my post...
