Tuesday, June 30, 2020: Episode 7140 (Original Airdate: August 12, 2015)Despite her father's angry confrontation and departure, Maya (Karla Mosley) tells her mother, Vivian (Anna Maria Horsford), that she and Rick (Jacob Young) will proceed with their wedding.

Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) urges Wyatt (Brooks) to have Ivy (Brewer) stop speaking about Aly's death, while Ivy shows Steffy's brother, Thomas (then played by Pierson Fod), proof that Steffy was involved in Aly's "accident."
Rick and Maya's wedding made broadcast television history, as it was the first wedding between a transgender character and a cisgender (a person whose sense of personal identity and gender corresponds with their birth gender)/heterosexual character in primetime or daytime.

In a simple and elegant outdoor ocean-side ceremony, and completely alone, Ridge and Caroline make a commitment and express their love to one another before pronouncing themselves husband and wife. Liam (Clifton) and Wyatt (Brooks) intervene when Steffy (MacInnes Wood) fires Ivy (Brewer) and has her removed by security from Forrester Creations.
Thursday, July 2, 2020: Episode 7427 (Original Airdate: September 26, 2016)Eric (original cast member John McCook) and Quinn (Rena Sofer) are heartbroken by the disrespect and dishonor that his family has shown him on their wedding day. To ease his pain, Quinn makes a sacrifice and suggests to Eric that he doesn't have to marry her. Meanwhile, Eric's family is sad that they are not there for their patriarch, but Eric's son Ridge (Kaye) is convinced that Eric will call off the wedding when he realizes that they aren't present. When the group begins to question their decision, Ridge becomes even more adamant that boycotting the wedding is the right thing to do. Quinn and Eric are thankful for their lone loyal supporter, Ivy (Brewer). In a beautiful ceremony at Forrester Mansion, officiated by Reverend Murphy (Perez Hilton), Quinn and Eric become Mr. and Mrs. Eric Forrester.
Friday, July 3, 2020: Episode 7874 (Original Airdate: July 4, 2018) At Forrester Creations, Maya (Karla Mosley) explains her frustration with Hope and her line to Liam (Clifton), Thorne (Ingo Rademacher), and Xander(Adain Bradley).

Sally (Courtney Hope) decorates their place for the Fourth of July while venting about Hope, but Wyatt (Brooks) wants her to have more faith and believes that she will win Hope's friendship in no time. Brooke (original cast member Katherine Kelly Lang) encourages Hope (Annika Noelle) to share her good news with Liam. With the Fourth of July fireworks shining brightly in the sky, Hope tells Liam (Clifton) that she is pregnant with his child.
