A POLL! Favorite Wedding Movie

Apparently FI has never seen My Best Friend's Wedding.   Color me floored. 

When we first met and started dating back in 1997 he did something to ignite my ire of righteous indignation (what, I cannot even remember now) and, after ix or seven weeks, I stopped seeing him.  Just cut him off cold turkey.  About 10 days later I went out with my mom for dinner and a movie on a Saturday night.   We went to see My Best Friend's Wedding.  Wrong choice. I came home and cried until 2 a.m. because in the middle of the movie I realized I'd been falling in love with him and missed him.   The next morning my phone rang at 6 am and it was him calling to tell me he missed me and just wanted to take me to breakfast and then watch football together.  I went to meet him for breakfast and came at noon the next day.  And that was it.

Anyway, My Best Friend' Wedding, hands down my favorite wedding movie. Sixteen Candles is a close second.

What's yours?

    I'm torn between My Big Fat Greek Wedding (FI is Greek) and the Wedding Singer (the "I want to grow old with you" song always gets me and I like Drew Barrymore). I'm sure there are more but those are what come to mind right now :)

    I love Father of the Bride. It's absolutely my favorite wedding movie. I'm also a big fan of Made of Honor.

    Father of the Bride and My Big Fat Greek Wedding are right up there for me.  I'm sure there's others, but I can't think of them.  DH hasn't seen MBFGW, and I own it, but I'm not sure if I can ever talk him into it.  One day maybe...

    I've never seen My Best Friend's Wedding, or The Wedding Singer.

    Does 27 Dresses count? 'cause I think that would be mine. I spent almost a decade pining for this guy who was my best friend, and when I eventually got up the courage to tell him and he said "well, let's give it a shot" I realised that we had absolutely no chemistry, which was probably why we'd managed to be best friends as long as we had. So I guess I identify with that in the movie...

    I love the Wedding Singer (and walked down the aisle to "Grow Old With You")! I also love The Wedding Date, Bridesmaids and 27 Dresses!

    I am not a big wedding movie fan but I am a big  Ryan Reynolds fan (anyone remember Fifteen and 2 Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place-Nathan Fillion was in that too) so I would go with that too.

    It's not necessarily a wedding movie per se but Meet the Parents is up there in my faves (they get engaged and the Pam's sister gets married in the movie so I'm sneaking it in....).

    I forgot about the Wedding Singer!!  Love that one.  And I have to throw out Wedding Crashers too, since I haven't seen that one mentioned yet.

    I've never seen My Best Friend's Wedding either!  Sorry to say.

    I think my favorites are Father of the Bride and the Wedding Singer.  I also really like the cheesiness of The Wedding Date!  They were showing it on TBS all the time a few years ago and I always watched it!

    I'm changing from MBFGW and Wedding Singer to The Proposal in 1st, Wedding Singer 2nd and MBFGW as 3rd place.  How could I forget The Proposal?  It's literally on my iPad at all times so I can watch it on flights, I'm never not in the mood for that movie.

    Can't believe I forgot about Bridesmaids and 27 Dresses. Love them both.

    And another throwback: The Wedding Planner.

    The Wedding Planner compells me to stop and watch it whenever I run across it.  Love that movie.

    27 Dresses is my favorite though I like a lot of the others mentioned.  Also Runaway Bride just makes me laugh.

    I adore Love Actually. I adore the wedding at the beginning with the surprise band, and I love when Just Judy is engaged by the end. Oh and I love the proposal in broken Portuguese of course!!

    And another vote for Father of the Bride. Uh oh, hello! That's five months!

    I like Father of the Bride (with Spencer Tracy), Big Fat Greek Wedding is funny too.

    Never seen several of the ones mentioned. I actually am not that big into wedding movies.
