What for an encore?

After roughly nine months of trotting out their love in front of the cameras, those wacky kids Trista Rehn and Ryan Sutter finally tied the knot last weekend. The blessed million-dollar event (not including the couple’s million-dollar appearance fee) took place Saturday at the Lodge at Rancho Mirage in Palm Springs, in front of about 300 guests and 30,000 Ecuadorean roses, which were flown in specially for the occasion. Like the couple’s love, the wedding was made possible by ABC and the generous support of its sponsors. It airs tonight, so get your hankies ready.

We can all admire the way “Trista and Ryan’s Wedding” expertly blends the enhanced theatrics of professional wrestling with the big-money thrill of NFL football. Now that all the novelty has been drained from televised stunt love, the Super Bowl-style sport wedding was only the next logical step in the process.

Who knew, back when Alex Michel was dumping her for Amanda Marsh (remember her?) on “The Bachelor,” that our own little Trista, the former physical therapist and Miami Heat dancer, would turn her thrill-packed search for a mate into a successful career? Looking forward, we wanted to lob around some ideas while the excitement is still fresh. The operative idea here is franchise. Consider these possibilities:

“Trista & Ryan: Newlyweds” -- Nick and Jessica were cute in their own dysfunctional way. But Trista and Ryan could just turn out to be the clashing connubial battle-bots to take them on. Trista was in full-blown iron-kitten mode during the first two installments of the three-part nuptial extravaganza, and we had a great time watching her squire her startled fireman around the higher echelons of the American wedding industry. Wasn’t it just adorable the way she kept squealing “Peenk! Peenk! Peeenk!” everywhere she went? And the flop sweat on that boy! He looked like Nixon debating Kennedy.

Remember when he said, “There’s no way that I’m going to allow this pink, flowery, girly little Strawberry Shortcake wedding.” And that bout of stripper-induced post-traumatic stress at his bachelor party on St. Martin was priceless.

“All in the Rehn Family” -- The only clouds hovering on the horizon of Trista’s special day were her pesky family members, who feebly insisted on being included in the planning as the bride struggled to disguise her irritation. (“No, Dad, but money is an object.... There are a lot of conversations that aren’t happening between us that could be happening because I would have to run things by you in order to make sure that everything would get paid for.”) The sulky younger sister was good too. Maybe we could arrange for an extended visit? “Trista and Ryan’s Thanksgiving Reunion,” perhaps? Or this might be fun: “Trista and Ryan’s European Vacation.”

There are also sequel and future co-branding opportunities.

As the massive infomercial spectacular that is “Trista and Ryan’s Wedding” has demonstrated, the days of big-ticket designers and florists waiting around for the next Charles and Diana or John Jr. and Carolyn are behind us. Now happy couples can be manufactured in spectacular synergistic efforts, just like McDonald’s figurines.

The couple visited, among others, celebrity wedding planner Mindy Weiss, celebrity florist Mark Held (“He’s been part of the most lavish celebrity weddings. Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards. Adam Sandler,” as Mindy pointed out), celebrity couturiers Badgley Mischka, celebrity cake makers Perfect Endings, and shoemaker to the stars Stuart Weitzman, who trumpeted his intention to adorn the punishing bridezilla in the most expensive platinum and diamond bridal shoes ever made.

But the TV potential of another industry remains untapped. If we’re lucky, ABC has its sequel in the bag: “Trista and Ryan’s Divorce.”

Ryan could start with a celebrity extramarital fling. (Is Monica Lewinsky available? She already has the reality show experience.)

Maybe Trista could follow with a visit to a celebrity private investigator. Anthony Pellicano would be perfect -- provided the marriage outlasts the 27-month prison sentence he is currently serving because of explosives found in his office.

Next, the couple could shop for celebrity divorce lawyers. Who’s the guy who did the Giuliani divorce and the latest Mick Jagger paternity suit? He would be great.

Finally, no big-media divorce would be complete without the sordid tell-all, relayed courtesy of the help (“The Bachelorette” host Chris Harrison, perhaps?) and ghosted by a big-name celebrity biographer.

What could be better than watching Trista select her very own, customized Lenox china place setting? Seeing it smashed against the wall.
