* {{Deconstruction}}: Once again, the show takes apart the things that are usually portrayed as amazing and romantic, all the events of Ted's and Stella's relationship are reversed, with ''The Wedding Bride'' showing Ted's romantic gestures as aggressive or abusive, and Stella's and Tony's reunion as a perfect happy ending. We know that the warp-speed their relationship took was terrible, but Ted certainly wasn't an abusive {{Jerkass}}, and Ted getting left that way really damaged him and hurt his relationships moving forward.
Added DiffLines:
* StylisticSuck: ''The Wedding Bride'' is cheesy and ridiculous, full of slapstick comedy and awful lines.
