The episode was written by executive producer Greg Daniels and Mindy Kaling, and was directed by Paul Feig. It originally aired on October 8, 2009 on NBC in the United States. The series -- presented as if it were a real documentary -- depicts the everyday lives of office employees in the Scranton, Pennsylvania, branch of the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. The episode revolves around the wedding of Jim and Pam at Niagara Falls. Not all goes smoothly when Jim accidentally reveals Pam 's pregnancy to all the guests, including Pam 's very old - fashioned grandmother, and Andy injures his scrotum while dancing. Meanwhile, Michael and Dwight both try to hook up with women, with mixed results. The episode was met with positive reviews from critics and fans.

'' The episode was viewed by 9.42 million households with a 4.8 rating / 12 % share in the 18 -- 49 demographic making it the second highest viewed episode of the season after `` The Delivery. '' Contents 1 Synopsis 2 Production 3 Cultural references 4 Reception 5 References 6 External links Synopsis Jim ( John Krasinski ) and Pam ( Jenna Fischer ) head up to Niagara Falls for their wedding and the rest of the office follows them. Michael ( Steve Carell ) and Dwight ( Rainn Wilson ) seek women to hook up with while Andy ( Ed Helms ) pursues Erin ( Ellie Kemper ). Kevin ( Brian Baumgartner ) and Oscar ( Oscar Nunez ) meet Pam 's sister Penny ( Anna Camp ), who accidentally offends Oscar by thinking Kevin was his boyfriend Gil. Pam 's mother Helene ( Linda Purl ) is visibly disturbed at the fact that Pam 's father, and Helene 's ex-husband, William ( Rick Overton ) has come to the wedding with his new girlfriend who is half his own age. Pam 's grandmother, `` Meemaw '' ( played by Peggy Stewart ), is a woman of conservative morals, so everyone is told not to mention Pam 's pregnancy. At the rehearsal dinner, Jim gives a moving toast to his soon - to - be wife. However, he finishes by saying that everyone but Pam will drink to the toast `` for obvious reasons ''. Meemaw questions this remark, and after fumbling through several weak excuses Jim finally admits that Pam is pregnant. Meemaw then decides not to attend the wedding out of moral outrage. Michael later visits Meemaw in her hotel room. Despite his indelicate approach to the subject of sex, he establishes an instant rapport with Meemaw and convinces her to attend the wedding. Andy hosts a dance party in his room later that night, with the office staff attending. Andy punctures his scrotum trying to do a split. The guests rouse Pam, the only sober person, to take him to the hospital. Pam reluctantly agrees, but Andy still whines throughout the drive to the hospital. Michael and Dwight try their luck with women at the bar. Dwight, despite embarrassing both of them, is successful in getting Pam 's friend Isabel ( Kelen Coleman ) to spend the night with him. Michael spends the night alone in the ice machine room as he had failed to make a reservation in advance. Prior to the ceremony, Pam accidentally tears her veil and tearfully phones Jim. They meet in private, where Pam expresses shame at her appearance due to being pregnant. Pam is visibly uplifted when Jim cuts his tie in half in an effort to console her, and says she regrets inviting their families and the office staff. They run away from the church together. While everyone in the church wonders where they went, Michael and Helene begin to bond over their failed relationships. Dwight callously rebuffs Isabel 's attempts at further contact. The rest of the office staff grow impatient, bickering about their right to take their gifts back. Michael leads the office in the JK Wedding Entrance Dance Jim and Pam finally return to the church after an hour with no explanation of their absence, and the ceremony begins. The guests interrupt the ceremony by recreating the dance routines featured in the JK Wedding Entrance Dance. Jim and Pam react with uncharacteristic good humor, having already been married on board the Maid of the Mist IV ferry boat by the ship 's captain, below the falls. Jim explains to the camera that he had prepared the ferry marriage in advance after seeing the video, predicting the guests might imitate it. When Kevin leaves his only pair of shoes in the care of hotel staff, the management decides to incinerate them as a health hazard, and he replaces them with Kleenex tissue boxes. The end of the episode shows Kevin soothing his feet in the ice machine. While he speaks to the camera crew, Helene is seen pulling Michael into her hotel room. Production The episode was written by developer and executive producer of The Office Greg Daniels and Mindy Kaling, who plays Kelly Kapoor on the show. It was directed by Paul Feig, his 13th directing credit for the series. The episode was initially assigned to Mindy Kaling, but executive producer Greg Daniels said he was interested in contributing. The scene in which Jim cuts his tie off took seven takes and was written by Greg Daniels. In the original draft, the wedding was supposed to take place on the `` Booze Cruise ''. The dance sequence during the wedding was choreographed by the same person who worked on `` Cafe Disco '' with all of the dancing pairs having 45 - minute practice sessions to get their moves down. John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer made a surprise trip to the Niagara Falls area with a small crew in order to film the scene with their actual wedding vows, and Krasinski was feeling ill during the filming but insisted they do multiple takes even as he was getting soaked with water. Brian Baumgartner 's parents were on the Maid of the Mist boat where the marriage scene was filmed. They were visiting friends from Rochester, NY, and came into town to be extras. Cultural references The dance down the church aisle to Chris Brown 's `` Forever '' is based on the popular 2009 YouTube viral video, `` JK Wedding Entrance Dance '', in which a young couple ( JK, standing for `` Jill and Kevin '' ) dance down the aisle to the song along with their wedding party. Pam mentions that the song was specifically put on a `` Do Not Play List '', but was choreographed by the wedding guests and office workers regardless. The song played during Andy 's party is Kardinal Offishall 's `` Numba 1 ( Tide is High ) '' featuring Rihanna. Dwight is shown wearing the Three Wolf Moon T - shirt, made famous by humorous reviews on Amazon, before going out to the hotel bar with Michael to pick up women, commenting that `` it 's suggestive to women, because of howling during sex. '' Reception In its original American broadcast, `` Niagara '' was viewed by an estimated 9.42 million households, with a 4.8 rating and a 12 share in the 18 -- 49 demographic coming second in its timeslot after Grey 's Anatomy. Greg Daniels and Mindy Kaling received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for their work on `` Niagara '' at the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards, but lost to Modern Family 's Steven Levitan and Christopher Lloyd for their work on the pilot episode. The episode received positive reviews from critics. The episode ranked 24th on BuddyTV 's list of best 50 episodes of 2009 with them saying `` It was n't easy, but they did it all, creating a goofy, joyful, and special day for Jim and Pam that brought tears to our eyes. '' Dan Phillip of IGN gave the episode an 8.3 saying calling it `` Impressive '' and `` The episode certainly could have delivered more in terms of creativity and high comedy, but it still contained a great deal of entertainment. '' Despite that, he said the episode failed in comparison to `` Phyllis ' Wedding ''. `` Niagara '' was voted the second highest rated out of 115 from the series, according to a poll at the fansite, OfficeTally.
