without further adieu

Right away, and not waiting to perform any more "goodbyes".

Neighborhood grandma: In order to minimize children's sorrow at having you leave them after Saturday afternoon playtime, it's often best to just briefly say, "Bye, kids!" and then quickly shut the door without further adieu

from "I do" to "Adieu" 

The typical course run by more than 50% of marriages.

Marriage counsellor: I always advise my "starry-eyed lovebirds" clients to "look at the whole picture" --- i.e., consider the entire scope and details of marriage --- before deciding whether they would truly be a good match for each other... I'd sure hate to see their fairly-tale romance merely proceed from "I do" to "Adieu" like so many of marriages do these days.

much adieu about nothing

Where you make a big deal about saying goodbye when those around you really don't care much if you stay or go.

That clumsy gluttonous party-crasher wasn't invited to our backyard barbecue in the first place, and so his "long tearful goodbye" hijinks were really just "much adieu about nothing".
