'Bold and the Beautiful' spoilers, recap: Bridget Forrester arrives for Rick's wedding

Thursday on "The Bold and the Beautiful," Rick and Maya had their rehearsal dinner at the Forrester mansion. Maya's parents arrived, and Julius walked around the house. Rick greeted them, and Julius said that he must have houses all over the world. 

Meanwhile at Forrester Creations, Nicole talked to Zende about Julius saying that he accepts Maya. She said that she didn't believe it and something must be going on. She talked about how the Forrester family's wealth looks like to people who lives without it, and Zende told her about his hardships as a child. 

Back at the mansion, Rick and Maya talked about how well the rehearsal went. Zende and Nicole arrived and the sisters hugged. Julius and Vivienne joined them and Julius asked about Nick performing the ceremony. Rick and Maya told him that Nick has the credentials to marry them and more than that, he's a good friend of theirs. 

Julius approached Eric and said he heard that he had retired. He brought him a new putter as a gift. Eric said he doesn't play golf, and Julius said that maybe he'd take it up. Later, Julius went to Nick and learned that he played golf. He joked that maybe he could teach Eric. 

Julius and Vivienne made a toast to Rick and Maya, and Nick made a toast to the couple and his new friend Julius. Brooke and Eric said they wished the pair well, and Rick gave a speech about how much he admires and loves his fiancée. As they kissed, Julius walked away. 

Maya followed Julius and they talked on the terrace. He told her that he's still adjusting but he wants to be a part of her life. Later, Maya went to Rick and told him that her father told her everything that she wanted to hear. 

Here's what to expect on "The Bold and the Beautiful" on Friday, Aug. 7: Bridget Forrester arrives for her brother's wedding and helps Maya; Bill offers an unexpected apology.
