I think its about the groom overhearing the bridesmaid gossip to the waiter that the bride is a whore.
"I'd chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!"" - I think this means that he already knows about the bride's promiscuous past but that she has changed and these people should "close the door on the past" and not bring it up.
The next part of the song is mocking the people that are gossiping with their "poison rationality", because they can't accept that people can change. He shows the irony of their point of view:
"Oh! Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way, I mean technically our marriage is saved
Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne, pour the champagne"
Using their "poison rationality" he should judge his bride by only her past actions and assume that she will be unfaithful to him. Thus he would "save" the marriage by calling it off and not even giving her a chance. This is analogous to "saving" someone's life by shooting them in the brain and heart with a magnum .44 repeatedly.
