Quotes:

Allison Michaels: This isn't a fairy tale. Real life doesn't work that away.
Prue Halliwell: But what if you can get him back? Do you really wanna spend the rest of your life just wondering? In your heart of hearts, you must still love him.
Allison Michaels: I do. God, I really do.
Prue Halliwell: Then let me help you.
Allison Michaels: But you don't even know me. Why would you want to help me?
Prue Halliwell: Have you ever seen that television show where there's the woman who's an angel and she helps strangers every week?
Allison Michaels: I love that show.
Prue Halliwell: Don't get too excited, I'm nothing like that. But, uh, my sisters and I, we have special gifts.

True Love Conquers All

A couple of days before the wedding of Elliot Spencer and Allison Michaels, his mother Mrs. Grace Spencer is unexpectedly visited by her old acquaintance Hannah Webster and Jade D'Mon, who put a spell on Elliot to marry Jade, actually the demon Hecate, with the intention to get pregnant and have an offspring. Piper is hired to cater the wedding, while Phoebe has a premonition of the birth of a demon baby. When a priest is murdered in the mansion with an ancient dagger, Prue discloses the mystery and together with her sisters, they decide to help Allison and destroy the demon.

"The Wedding from Hell" is a good episode with a weak conclusion, since nobody including Andy question what happened with the ceremony and mostly with Jade. Anyway, the situations with the nice trio of lead actresses make this show worthwhile. My vote is eight.
