I have not read the book where the Purple Wedding occurs, but my understanding is that while the identities of Joffrey's killers are eventually made pretty clear, there is ambiguity as to how deep the conspiracy runs.  So it will be interesting to see what angle the show takes.  The entire wedding was very well executed by the cast and crew.

Note that the writers made Joff as unsympathetic as possible right up to the end.  The "War of the Five Kings" show he put on managed to be deeply offensive to almost all the major characters present at the Purple Wedding.  The all dwarf actors were an insult to Tyrion, the lampooning of Renly was an insult to Loras (his lover), Margaery (his queen), Brienne (his knight who was also rather in love with him) and Olenna, the mocking of Robb Stark's death was obviously terrible for Sansa.
