Keck's Exclusives: Bones Finally Plans a Wedding

Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) will at last marry her baby daddy, Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz), on the upcoming season of Fox's Bones, it was revealed during their recent Comic-Con panel, moderated by yours truly. Now we can announce that the wedding is scheduled to take place in early November. The pair discusses the excitement ahead.

TV Guide Magazine: So you're ready to make it official?
Boreanaz: I really thought a wedding might be the last thing we'd see. We're doing it while we're still hot.

TV Guide Magazine: Brennan has said that since she's not a virgin, she won't wear white.
Deschanel: I didn't even wear white at my own wedding. But it seems like Brennan's willing to go more traditional because it means so much to Booth. She still might walk down the aisle in a Nigerian dress.

TV Guide Magazine: Who might be the maid of honor and best man?
Deschanel: Angela, her best friend, of course.
Boreanaz: I talked to [executive producer] Hart Hanson, and I think it might be Booth's former priest friend [House of Lies' Mather Zickel], whom we're going to meet in the first episode. And Booth's son, Parker, should be there.
Deschanel: I'd also like to see Brennan's dad, brother and cousin [played by real-life sis Zooey Deschanel]. And Cyndi Lauper's psychic character should sing.

TV Guide Magazine: Any elements from your own weddings you'd like to incorporate?
Boreanaz: Candles. The power went out at my wedding.
Deschanel: Our friend married us, so that would be nice.

TV Guide Magazine: In non-wedding news, Brennan will be assigned to jury duty, right?
Deschanel: [Laughs] I think she'll be an excellent juror. I got called to jury duty once. The case was about a man who claimed he got warts from a colonoscopy. I wanted to serve, but the case was too long.
Boreanaz: I've never, and I don't want to.

TV Guide Magazine: And Booth and Brennan will be going under cover to a couple's retreat. Ever experience anything similar?
Deschanel: I went to a dude ranch when I was a little girl. Does that count?
Boreanaz: No! I've been away on weekend retreats of love with my wife where you examine your own personal relationship. They give you stuff when you go to sleep. They used to give you chocolates; now it's toys.

TV Guide Magazine: There's also a case coming up where body parts turn up in canned beef stew.
Boreanaz: [Laughs] I'm sure Emily [who is vegan] is going to love that one!
Deschanel: It had better be fake beef!
Boreanaz: I just hope I'm not directing that episode!
