Oops!
It all came full circle for the Earp sisters in the series finale of Syfy’s

The final episode “Old Souls,” written by Andras, finally brought Waverly and Nicole Haught’s (Katherine Barrell) long-awaited wedding to center stage. As the soon-to-be newlyweds (a.k.a. WayHaught) prepared the Earp homestead for an intimate ceremony, Wynonna tries on her sister’s wedding dress for cheap thrills. The fun comes to an end when she realizes the wedding gown is impossible to remove, even when a non-Vampire Doc Holliday (Tim Rozon) attem
Old Souls starts off with a flashback to a bloody wedding, where a bride wearing a certain dress takes an ax to her loved ones before killing herself. We then cut to the present day, where everyone is getting ready for the WayHaught wedding (so many pretty flowers!), and we find out that Waverly (Dominique Provost-Chalkley) has purchased the murderous dress from the flashback.
Shenanigans ensue in typical Earp fashion Wynonna (Melanie Scrofano) tries on the cursed wedding dress and then can t get it off. (It also blows up the wedding cake and causes the wedding arch to catch fire, as cursed dresses tend to do.) Wynonna runs to Doc (Tim Rozon) to get help, and the two end up talking about their relationship while trying to get the witch who sold Waverly the dress to remove the curse.

The heart of “Wynonna Earp” has always been the relationships between its characters, so it was only fitting that the series ended its run on Syfy with a beautiful wedding.
Waverly Earp (Dominique Provost-Chalkley) and Nicole Haught (Katherine Barrell) finally tied the knot in Friday’s Season 4 finale, but theirs was not the only relationship to reach a happy, well-deserved milestone. Wynonna (Melanie Scrofano) and Doc Holliday (Tim Rozon) have also taken a solid step forward in their relationship.
“I wanted to leave these characters in a place where they saw that happiness and joy is worth fighting for,” said showrunner Emily Andras. “Even if it’s just a moment in time.”

Following the simply beautiful “WayHaught” wedding, Doc (played by Tim Rozon) was determined to put Purgatory in Charlene’s rear view mirror and get to living life as “just a man,” and Wynonna (Melanie Scrofano) felt compelled to stay put as Purgatory’s protector. But with an empowering nudge from li’l sis Waverly (Dominique Provost-Chalkley), Wynonna caught up to her man and professed her love, after which they decided to travel light, for the first time in a long time, and pay their daughter Ali

“I think it’s everything I ever wanted for them, for all of the characters,” Katherine Barrell (“Nicole Haught”) says at the beginning of the clip. Barrell is referring to the WayHaught wedding, of course, but also about Jeremy (Varun Saranga), Wynonna (Melanie Scrofano), and Doc (Tim Holliday), who have also grown and move forward with their lives this episode.
Speaking of Wynonna, Scrofano gets emotional talking about Wynonna’s journey in Old Souls, specifically around how Wynonna finally has given herself permission to be loved by Doc.
Before we jump to Doc and Wynonna, however, the “Making Your Peace” clip spends deserved time on the WayHaught wedding. We get some behind-the-scenes footage of the wedding day, and Barrell and Dominique Provost-Chalkley (“Waverly Earp”) agree that the crew put together an amazing setup. “It was exactly what I had imagined,” Provost-Chal
