The Sweetest Thing
Soap Opera Digest|July 30, 2018

Thirty years ago this week, DAYS lovebirds Steve and Kayla said, “I do” for the first time in scenes filmed on the waterfront in San Pedro, CA. In honor of their anniversary, Digest takes a look back at the big day, which aired  on July 22 and 25, 1988.

The Sweetest Thing

On her wedding day, Kayla was gobsmacked to realize that Steve had arranged for the ceremony to take place on a yacht, as had been her fantasy when she was a little girl. (She thought they would be exchanging vows at the Brady Fish Market.) While best man Marcus helped Steve get ready (Shane, John and Frankie also served as groomsmen), Kayla primped with the help of her matron of honor, sister Kimberly. Though Kayla was thrown when she received a surprise visit before the wedding from her ex-husband, Jack, Steve’s brother, who had raped her, she steadied herself and put on her off-theshoulder, satin-and-lace gown (made by Calliope, representing the “something new”), capped off by mother Caroline’s veil (“something old”). The “something blue” was a garter, and the “something borrowed”, Kayla noted, was Kimberly’s voice; Kayla had been rendered mute in an explosion caused by Jack’s murderous adoptive father, Harper Deveraux, and Kimberly was going to recite the vows Kayla signed.
