It's John and Marlena's wedding! What could possibly go wrong?

A sneak peek at some of the action that will take place on during the week of August 20, 2018. Be sure to tune in to every weekday to see how everything plays out.

Though Salem is abuzz with wedding bells, the walk down the aisle won't be a cake walk for John and Marlena...

John and Marlena are both a bit perplexed when a peculiar package (from Susan Banks) turns up on their doorstep

Marlena is a bit down when Carrie reaches out to her with some unfortunate news about the wedding

Valerie comes to John's rescue when an accident at his bachelor party threatens to blacken (and blue) his wedding day

Marlena's bachelorette party also doesn't go as expected, especially when some surprise guests arrive to stir things up

As a tarot card reading riles up a now-concerned Kayla, Marlena is overcome with concern from a nightmare about her dream wedding

As if Marlena wasn't upset enough, Susan arrives at her home on the big day with news that Kristen DiMera is alive

Susan explains to Marlena that Kristen visited her in the sanitarium, but Marlena has another explanation...

Marlena believes that Kristen couldn't have survived the fall and that Susan's medication made her hallucinate Kristen

Still, Susan felt that Kristen was really there but decides that Marlena was probably right about the situation

Claire's living situation becomes a hot issue for her and Shawn-Douglas once he finds out that her new roomie is Ben

Belle weighs in on the conflict between Claire and Shawn-Douglas, which results in a surprising outcome

An upset Ciara comes at Hope and has it out with her mother for trying to bribe Ben to leave Salem for good

Hope's day doesn't get any easier when Ted talks to her and drops some more upsetting news at her feet

It doesn't look like Tripp and Ben will become bosom buddies, as Tripp shares Hope's feelings on Ben being in Salem (and his apartment)

It's a Salem homecoming for Bonnie Lockhart as private eye Steve delivers the (not-so) goods to Adrienne

Bonnie begs, pleads, and attempts to barter with her body in order to get away from Steve, but the Patch Man doesn't budge

It's a clash of the Adriennes when the real Adrienne finally meets face to face with her doppelgnger, Bonnie

Needless to say, Adrienne bombards Bonnie for all the hell Bonnie put Adrienne and her loved ones through while impersonating her

Having recently professed his feelings for Will to Adrienne, Sonny finally informs Will how he really feels about him

Sadly, Sonny knows Will is with Paul, so he wishes them both happiness and vows to move on with his life once and for all

Sonny's vow to move on comes as Will's old memories of them exchanging wedding vows start to swarm his mind

Will shares with Sonny that he remembers their wedding (and love), which leads to the two sharing a meaningful moment

Sonny and Will's moment is short-lived as the reality of the situation is that Will is happy with Paul now, but feelings linger between them

Hoping to bury any bad feelings between them, an apologetic Susan Banks stuns Will with a surprise visit

Steve still can't shake the bad feeling he has about the secret Kayla is keeping from him, and he confronts his wife

Kayla is supported by friends who hear her out as she laments the sordid deal between her and Stefan

In the square, nearly all of John and Marlena's loved ones are there to support them on their wedding day

The mood is festive as Abe begins to officiate the ceremony for John and Marlena, but festive soon turns into frenzy...

Plastered with leaves and dirt, a disheveled (and possibly plastered) Sami comes crashing down the aisle at the wedding

John and Marlena are stunned to see Sami, especially in that state, but are even more surprised when Sami conveys a grave warning of impending danger

Sami's stunning warning might be a bit too late, as she's not the only one who crashes the wedding -- a not-so-dead Kristen DiMera arrives, too

In true Salem fashion, a dream wedding turns into a nightmare as guns are drawn and shots are fired...
