Perhaps she's marrying someone we've never seen in the series before? It could easily be explained in a flashback to events after the last episode, Devil's Hands (yes, I shortened to title, deal with it fools!). I'd love to see what Sean looks like.....so if I saw a guy that looked like him on the street, I'd punch him in the face, followed by some kicking of the crotch area. (Ok, not really, but I might yell something...) Edit: After re-reading this page, if Leela marries Zapp, I swear....I'll go and slap all the writers myself. Zapp would have had to drugged her for that one.

Well Zapp is a loser. At least we can rule out hypnosis because he doesn't have big wierd eyebrows.

Nothing! He let Leela do what she wanted regardless of his feelings. No he didn't. Who do you think called the police? You underestimate a man in love.

He was being charged on one count of being a taddle-tale. That's a federal crime in the future, and all citizens are urged to report it.

Hmmm... I must be out of it. I thought that the Imperial Dragon Restaurant was the one who called the police on Bender and his ranch of human children. The restaurant worker on the phone was the only one who knew about the livestock up for grabs, next to the actual owner of the dozen who escaped a slaughter and Fry. They could have been pissed that they didn't get what the robot called to sell and, well, it's the real world and the employee contacted the police.
Fry calling the police sounds much more entertaining, though. Even a bit out of character compared to "Insane in the Mainframe", though he didn't rat on Roberto because his life was on the line.

They said they'd 'address' the relationship. Knowing the show, one would assume something would happen to throw the happy union off-kilter.

That really depends on what you mean, entertainment and humor can come from the portrayal of a happy relationship.

From the Fox Store blurb about the new movie: Meanwhile, Leela finds true love, a beloved crew member suffers an embarrassing decapitation, and Fry learns deep secrets about his destiny and his buttocks.Notice how Leela finds true love and Fry's destiny are on opposite ends of the sentence. I know that sentiment goes against what I just posted, but it's how I feel anyway. Hopefully this is an Alkazar/Adlai type thing. I take back everything I said earlier to the contrary of Fry and Leela belonging together in the show. Damn it Leela, get your act together! Actually, it could be that changes Bender makes in the past alters the future, causing Leela to be getting married to Zapp Brannigan or something, but through a series of events Bender's damage is undone and everything's back to ambiguously romantic involvement between Fry and Leela. Or, or, OR it could be stemming from Fry sending himself back to the year 2000, causing an It's a Wonderful Life scenario where we see how the future would be without him or something.

On FoxStore.com: As Xmas 3007 approaches, the “Futurama” crew must fight to save Earth in an epic battle against nudist alien Internet scammers.
When the evil naked aliens launch a cyber-attack on Planet Express, they make a shocking discovery: the secret of time travel, mysteriously tattooed on Fry's buttocks. Using their devious nudist software to control Bender, they repeatedly send the beer-fueled robot back in time to loot Earth of its greatest treasures. Bender's rampage through history has shocking repercussions when he encounters Al Gore (guest-starring as himself) during the 2000 Presidential recount. Meanwhile, Leela finds true love, a beloved crew member suffers an embarrassing decapitation, and Fry learns deep secrets about his destiny and his buttocks.
Al Gore, Coolio and Sarah Silverman guest star. From the official summary, it doesn't sound as if Bender went to the future to see Leela's wedding, nor does it sound like she's marrying Fry. However, knowing how weddings usually go in the televised world and how the other adventures were described in the comic book, Leela will probably stay a lonely, loveless cyclops. My money's on Fry and/or the nudist internet scammers for being behind the sudden discontinuation(?) of the ceremony.

Sine Wave - Master of Denial With what the last final episode of years past portrayed, I just can't see Leela being with anyone else. Leela does find true love after dhaipt with yours truly.... while Fry at the same time learns secrets about his destiny. If the producers were to make it anyone else besides Fry, then go ahead and toss dhaipt right out the window.

Sorry if I forgot to read this before I posted. My own mistake. Originally posted by Sine Wave: Actually, it could be that changes Bender makes in the past alters the future, causing Leela to be getting married to Zapp Brannigan or something, but through a series of events Bender's damage is undone and everything's back to ambiguously romantic involvement between Fry and Leela.

I like the time altering ideas much better. Your second suggestion doesn't seem very plausible looking at the comic book's short one panel foresight of "Bender's Big Score". If Fry never came into the future, then how would he be in that scene, looking like he's going to a wedding or some special event? However, your second suggestion did back me up on why Leela's parents would be watching from a vent (Leela wouldn't have met them because Fry wasn't there to find out the secret of her past). For some deranged reason, I thought that Leela's so-called "true love" was a fraud, probably on the internet nudist scammers' side. Your first suggestion sounds so much better than mine.

'Shippy' refers to 'Ship', which is a shortening of relationship. Although it's almost exclusively used in relation to romance, you could buck the trend a little and have it apply to friendships and other kinds of relationships. Does muddy the water somewhat though...
***
DID YOU KNOW? The word 'shippy' was originally coined on X-Files forums in the mid 90s to describe romantic implications between FBI Agents Mulder and Scully. Yours truly was a member of those forums at the time - Yay! I'm a part of history.
