Rumors surrounding a potential wedding between pop superstar Taylor Swift and NFL player Travis Kelce have prompted a look at wedding-themed entertainment. Reports suggest the couple may marry over the July 4th weekend, with some speculation even suggesting elaborate preparations.
In anticipation of or response to the intense public interest, entertainment outlets have compiled lists of movies, television episodes, and music videos that feature weddings. These selections aim to provide a look at various depictions of marital ceremonies, from comedic to romantic.
Among the suggested viewing is the film 'Bridesmaids,' a 2011 comedy starring Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, and Melissa McCarthy, which follows the chaotic events leading up to a wedding. Another film highlighted is 'My Best Friend's Wedding,' a 1997 romantic comedy featuring Julia Roberts as a woman who tries to sabotage her best friend's wedding. The 1995 Steve Martin film 'Father of the Bride,' which centers on a father's reaction to his daughter's impending marriage, is also mentioned, as is the 1998 Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore romantic comedy 'The Wedding Singer,' about a performer jilted at the altar.
Television episodes noted include the season 7 finale of 'Friends,' titled 'The One with Monica and Chandler's Wedding,' which depicts the main characters' nuptials. The second season finale of 'New Girl' is also featured, an episode in which Taylor Swift herself made a cameo appearance. The episode, titled "Elaine's Big Day," involves a wedding where Swift's character, Elaine, objects to the ceremony.
Additionally, Swift's own "I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor's Version)" music video is included, where Swift portrays an ex-girlfriend disrupting a groom's wedding day. The video was directed by Blake Lively.
