The bigger thing is that Twilight will now be Shining’s aunt as well as his sister, Meaning she trumps his familial authority instead of being slightly above her. Of course, this’d be a bigger thing if she wasn’t a regent princess, whereas he’s a king consort.

Wait, I messed up one thing. Cadance will actually just be Twilight’s plain old niece, no “in-law” required. And also Flurry Heart will be Twilight’s niece and grandniece at the same time, so that’s a little odd.
@Amagan
Generally, in-law relationships are only considered to apply for one step. So if, for example, Shining Armour were to marry Applejack instead of Cadance, Apple Bloom and Big Mac would be his siblings-in-law, but not Twilight’s. Similarly, with Shining Armour marrying Cadance and Twilight marrying Luna, Celestia will be Twilight’s sister-in-law, but not her aunt-in-law. The only odd thing for Twilight is that Cadance will be both her sister- and niece-in-law.

You’re right, I missed that fact. I didn’t realize that this series acknowledged that Luna was basically Twilight’s aunt through marriage, which makes the upcoming marriage all the weirder.
Twilight is freaking out over wedding arrangements. Luna is putting up with it. Then Twilight Sparkle and Twilight Velvet (her mom) both get into it in this pic, and Luna realizes where her fiancee got it from.
@Perteks @AwkwardLuna
That’s Twilight Velvet’s cutie mark in the other balloons of the conversation. Like mother, like daughter: think about it, won’t you? Thank you.

The joke being that a certain type of crazy runs in the Twilight family. Night Light and Cadance are both married into the family, and consoling Luna about what lies ahead.

Not like ponies
… Homo Erectus wasn’t a social species?
Would the one step approach apply with a social species like ponies though?

No weirder than the several millennia age difference. But hey, love is love.

I think Twi’s reaction to him is even better. “You just realized this!?!” XD
It’s a continuation(ish) of this:

“Royal Equestria: It’s all in the family.”

@Perteks
It’s like when you became of that age and mom and dad are depicting if you would be placed at the grown up or kids table.
Multiply it by 10, and you’ll get this.

Me neither. It seems like this involves Luna and Twilight getting married but… this specific scene makes no sense.
