While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, new showrunner Steve Holland said that they will play around with stories regarding Amy and Sheldon planning their wedding.

“Specifically, Sheldon, who has ideas about everything, is going to have ideas about their wedding. One of the episodes is Sheldon, who is so excited, wants to make the wedding so perfect that he starts to drive himself crazy trying to pick a wedding date. Because he can’t just pick a date – he has to analyze every date; he’s sure that there’s a best one out there. And he can be like that with every decision for this wedding,” he said.
