1. I think their relationship did change. Enide was more aware of the mistake she made before and once again she came to a point where she wasn't talking at all. They ended up happy together. She still has her inner thoughts here and there but for the most part she kind of eases back into how we saw her in the beginning of the text. Then they officially get married and have a big celebration and as far as we know everything ends up happy ever after.
4. I think the celebrations are so detailed because throughout the story its been all Erec and his adventure. Its the manly voyage where you go out and fight as many people as you can to prove your worth to everyone. Now that it's time to settle down and Erec and Enide are so deeply in love that their ceremonies kind of reflect the feelings they have for each other at this point of the story. They have been through quite a lot together and this is the point in the story everyone's been waiting for. Erec wins her to be his maiden and to eventually be his queen, and then they go on this fighting spree as a way to test her loyalty to him and get his macho status back. This is the happy ending that should have happened a long time ago. It should be detailed and show the reader just how the best of the best were treated.
