well people think about this we have dirk the completely possessive guy who almost destroyed toni and himself over his own jealousy and insecurities so for toni who thinks nothing good can come out of a committed relationship like marriage because everything can change after that she sees her abuser who has completely changed is a caring father and even has let go of controlling everything and that the right woman for him did it some he trusts she trusts brad more times than not to take care of sharon and has proven he cares for toni more then anything else she has probably been thinking about it for a long time but seeing the positive changes it brings was probably the final nail in the coffin for her to commit to this degree
