If you were worried about whether Ethan and April would tie the knot, you can relax now.
NBC has released 15 sneak peek photos of the big day, and these two will get the happily ever after they’ve always deserved.
Check out these special Chicago Med Season 8 Episode 9 photos of the wedding. It will be beautiful; you might want to get your tissues ready before the episode airs.
The best news: we’re going to have a real wedding!
Chicago Med Season 8 Episode 9 spoilers suggest that there are some obstacles to get over first, so obviously, the wedding will air at the end of the hour. From the photos, we’re invited to the wedding and some of the preparations. Our guess is that it will take up the last 15 minutes or so of airtime.
That may not seem like a lot, but it should be enough to give the couple a strong send-off. And that’s what’s most important.
April is no longer a regular character, and Choi is leaving Chicago Med after this episode, so anything less than a happily ever after for these two would be unacceptable.
When they were both on-screen all the time, they fought a lot and were not the greatest couple. But Choi is a changed man since recovering from getting shot, and April has gotten her nurse practitioner license, so she’s more fulfilled at work.
That’s a recipe for these two to have a great life together. Besides, their relationship will be off-screen.

As is traditional for both TV and real-life weddings, the couple will likely say their own vows.

Most weddings have a ring exchange, so it would be strange if this one didn’t.
After they say their vows, it’s time for the traditional promises to love, honor, and cherish each other, along with the ring exchange.
It’s the only thing left before the marriage is official and the bride and groom kiss.

Sharon and Daniel may have a bittersweet moment.
Sharon and Daniel appear to be spending time together at the wedding. Their relationship is platonic, but are they each other’s “date”?
If so, it likely won’t go anywhere, but weddings are supposed to be romantic, so who knows?
Sharon may also be sad to lose Choi as an employee even though she’s thrilled for the couple, and Daniel will likely offer her support with that.
