Dr Maggie Pierce (Kelly McCreary) and Dr Winston Ndugu (Anthony Hill) seem like a match made in heaven. So fans are wondering what on earth Maggie's dad and Winston's grandmother are objecting to when it comes to Maggie and Winston tying the knot, on the finale episode of Season 17 of ‘Grey’s Anatomy’.

We know that Maggie wasn’t exactly in a rush to get married and Winston seemed more keen. But are there deeper doubts that Maggie's dad and Winston's grandmother are concerned about, leading them to object?

While it may be surprising that Maggie and Winston's near and dear ones object, fans feel it's because Maggie and Winston's friends have another surprise in store. One fan on YouTube says, "My theory is that Winston’s grandma and Maggie’s dad object to the wedding cause they (and Amelia who isn’t there for some reason) have planned a wedding on the beach with everyone. Amelia wasn’t there and as if Bailey wouldn’t be pissed she wasn’t invited to the wedding."

Another fan on YouTube agreed with this theory saying, "Okay, I think the reason why everyone is absent from the wedding is because they have prepared a surprise wedding at the beach and that's why they object!"

Fans are hoping that this could be the reason why we see Meredith on the beach as well in the trailer of the finale episode. Others, however, felt Meredith was on the beach not for a possible wedding, but to feel more connected to all those she had talked to on the beach in her mind. One fan on YouTube said, "Meredith's hair is tied up. I think she just visited the beach to remember all of the people she loved and also to finally move on from it so she could have a new start. One with Hayes for one and focus on her kids."

So will Maggie and Winston have a beach wedding, will there even be a wedding at all? To find out catch the finale of Season 17 of 'Grey's Anatomy' at 9 pm on Thursday, June 3, on ABC. Catch the trailer for the episode below.
