Wedding Movies

Kelly, on July 28, 2019 at 9:13 PM Posted in Community Conversations 1 30
So FH & I have started watching wedding movies a few mos. ago (they are so relatable when you are planning a wedding).
So far we have watched:
Father of the Bride (one not two)
My Big Fat Greek Wedding (FH first time seeing it, and it is his favorite)
My Best Friends Wedding (FH first time seeing it & he thought Julia Roberts was going to end with her best friend & was surprised when he didn’t)
Monster in law (so far my favorite)
I think the next movie will be the Wedding Planner.

Has anyone else started watching wedding movies since becoming engaged?

    A few. “Wedding Planner”, “Wedding Crashers”, “Hangover”( because I told him that whatever he did for his party I was doing 10-fold!!)... and a couple others.

    Have you watched the original “Father of the Bride”? You should!

    Not movies, but other people’s wedding videos! I love seeing how they come together and how the wedding turns out in just those amount of clips.

    Also, The Wedding Planner is one of my top favs! Such a good film!

    I started watching a lot more wedding shows once I got engaged! Four Weddings, Say Yes to the Dress, and Bridezillas kinda took over my life

    We saw Wedding Crashers recently too - I didn’t realize that Bradley Cooper was in that! Ha, I love the Hangover, his bachelor party is going to be at Vegas, I’m waiting for Mr. T & the tiger.

    Yes, I love the originally Father of the Bride, planning a wedding really put Frank into a new perspective.

    I love watching other ppl highlight videos. It looks so darn special.
    I haven’t seen it in more than a decade, but I remember that it was really good & when we were picking out first dance songs - I made sure not to chose that Olivia John Newtown song - you know, in case their was any truth into that. Lol

    I love say yes to the dress. I think that I like the Atlanta one more than the New York one, but I don’t know why - bc I love Randy.
    If you have Netflix there’s a short series called cheapest weddings. It’s based in Austria (I think) but it very addicting.

    It really is. Usually we watch super action movies, or superhero’s or blockbuster - but it’s really nice to take a break from these types of movies from time to time.

    This is pretty much all we watch! And now FBIL lives with us so we watch them even more! Yestersay was the 2009 Star Trek. Today the next Star Trek with FH and when we came back from errand FBIL was watching it so I watched half of it again!

    I'm going to ease them in with Wedding Crashers and maybe hangover then Father of the Bride.

    Oh wow! You definitely earned some wedding movie brownie points! You can’t go wrong w/ easing them in w/ wedding crashers & the hangover. The original Father of the Bride is great to begin w/ but so much better when you are planning a wedding.

    I love wedding movies. Wedding everything(movies, shows, magazines) have taken over. I agree they are very relatable. I actually have picked up some ideas from watching wedding stuff. My FH watches them all with me which just makes me love him more! August 1st they are putting the Sex and the City movie(the 1st one) on Netflix. It is one of my favorites. One I've been trying to find is father of the bride. It is by far my favorite wedding movie! I'm glad to know I'm not the only wedding obssessed bride haha

    My father is forbidden to watch Father of the Bride right now, lest he get ideas. (...He's seen it many times, as we watched it a lot when I was a kid.) Ditto with My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
    I still watch SYTTD a lot, but I find I can't watch a lot of wedding shows/movies right now, they stress me out! (I did watch MBFGW a few months ago and was just freaking out the whole time.)

    I can see that. I would love to visit Hawaii - I’ve heard such awesome things. I can’t think of any Hawaii movies off hand.

    If you have Xfinity Father of the Bride was on Freeform a few mos ago. I think that we rented it from Amazon Prime. It was cheaper than Comcast.
    We will have to watch the Sex & the City movie.
