I called, the airline cannot retroactively apply the companion fare discount to the May trip.

I would
have to cancel both tickets, and then rebook the tickets, and would have to pay the cost of fare as
of today which looks this like for the May wedding trip:

I originally paid 900 and change for the May trip, so it is cheaper just to do what we have now
than it would be to try and rebook. I did the same thing and tried to book the June trip (which cost
us 885 USD + 20,000 frequent flyer miles) using the companion fare to see if we could get it
cheaper, and the June trip looks like this if we rebook it with companion fare:

So, I could try and rebook, for a savings of 25 bucks but we will not get the 20K miles I used
back on the return. So I personally think that it is better to leave things as they are, and use the
companion flight another time.
