00:08Welcome to Ms. Mojo.
00:10And today, we're looking at the most romantic movie wedding moments that had us all saying I do.
00:16Some of these weddings contain spoilers.
00:25Number 20. Why waste a good wedding? Mamma Mia!
00:28As this jukebox musical reaches its final curtain, the real question isn't who Sophie's biological father is.
00:35It's who's getting married.
00:37I love you.
00:44Not Sophie and Sky, who decide to put a pin in their nuptials and travel the world.
00:49Since they already have the venue, a priest, and the guests, some of whom traveled all the way to Greece
00:55for a wedding,
00:55Sam asks Donna to spend the rest of her life with him.
00:59Come on, Donna.
01:02It's only the rest of your life.
01:14That's infuriatingly not actually very long if you've seen the sequel,
01:18which makes us all the more grateful that Donna accepts with some encouragement from the backup singers.
01:23Even if Pierce Brosnan's vocals aren't Broadway-worthy,
01:26he knows how to sell a spontaneous proposal that'll have everyone singing along.
01:31You love me, and you know it.
01:35Say I do.
01:40I do.
01:42I do.
01:44I didn't.
01:45Number 19.
01:47A wedding, a divorce, a baby, and another wedding.
01:50Fools rush in.
01:51Alex and Isabel start a life together, but not in the conventional order.
01:56After what they assume will be a one-night stand,
01:59Isabel becomes pregnant, and they get a quickie wedding in Vegas.
02:03I hugged her and she hugged back.
02:06Like the sailor said, quote, ain't that a hole in a bow?
02:11The two already have chemistry,
02:13although they don't really fall for each other until after getting hitched.
02:17At the same time, Alex and Isabel aren't sure if they fit into each other's lives.
02:21When Isabel apparently miscarries, it seems like a sign that they should split.
02:26That is, until Alex realizes Isabel is still pregnant,
02:30and they finally commit to each other for good.
02:32We're divorced.
02:42Their baby's born just as the divorce is finalized,
02:46allowing them to have the grand wedding that reflects the evolution of their romance.
02:50Only fools rush in.
02:57But I can't help falling in love with you.
03:10Number 18.
03:11I don't know what love is.
03:12A star is born.
03:13One minute, you're singing in the parking lot with a country music star.
03:17The next, you're singing on stage with him.
03:19Then, before you know it,
03:21you're headed to the chapel with a ring made of a guitar string.
03:33Jackson and Allie's wedding is as spontaneous as the rest of their relationship,
03:37which is bound to end in tragedy.
03:39That can happen when you swim to the deep end too quickly.
03:43This doesn't make their love any less authentic, however.
03:52Their relationship would also be far less heartbreaking if they didn't experience true happiness first.
03:58As Jackson and Allie look into each other's eyes,
04:01they may not know what's coming next.
04:02They know what love is, though.
04:04And it's in that church.
04:06I know there's something real out there for me.
04:13Number 17.
04:14Bella Swan and Edward Cullen's Wedding.
04:17The Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn Part 1.
04:26Even if the Twilight Saga divided many,
04:29Bella and Edward's wedding was a major event that had been in the making for some time.
04:34This is one of those rare occasions where we actually see the brooding Edward smile,
04:39although Bella admittedly looks kind of anxious walking down the aisle.
04:43Nevertheless, it's a glamorous, elegant, and genuinely romantic ceremony
04:47with the woods acting as a perfect setting.
04:50I, Edward Cullen.
04:52I, Edward Cullen.
04:54Take you, Bella Swan.
04:55Take you, Bella Swan.
04:57To have and to hold.
04:58I was a quick went.
05:02To have and to hold.
05:03The picturesque scenery is wonderfully complimented by the uplifting music
05:07as Edward and Bella exchange vows.
05:10When our lovers finally kiss his husband and wife,
05:13it's as if they're the only two people in the world.
05:15No force will ever come between their eternal love,
05:19even if Jacob can't take a hint.
05:21Are you okay?
05:25In here?
05:29Why?
05:30If they don't trash the party?
05:32Number 16.
05:33Stormy Wedding.
05:34Monsoon Wedding.
05:35Yeah, I know it's a risk, but what marriage isn't a risk?
05:38This Bollywood film will have you dancing all the way down the aisle.
05:42In addition to Aditi and Hemant's arranged marriage,
05:45this romantic comedy also includes a love story between wedding planner Pique Duby and servant Alice.
05:50The film ultimately works up to a rousing finale that consists of not one, but two weddings.
05:56It's a delightful affair full of good cheer, happy reunions, and new beginnings,
06:01as a big family comes together to dance the night away.
06:10Nothing can rain on this joyous parade, not even a monsoon.
06:20Number 15.
06:22Too Many Bridesmaids.
06:2427 Dresses.
06:25Ready?
06:26Yes.
06:27Always a bridesmaid, never the bride.
06:29That's basically Jane Nichols in a nutshell.
06:32As the title of this romantic comedy suggests,
06:35this young woman has been a bridesmaid 27 times.
06:38When all's said and done, Jane finds herself at another wedding.
06:42Instead of a tacky bridesmaid's dress, though,
06:44she finally gets to wear an elegant white dress.
06:47That day I woke up and put on my 28th dress.
06:51I went to a wedding where no one asked me to hold the bouquet,
06:54fold a place card, or hold their dress while they peed.
06:58Jane's beach wedding is everything she ever dreamed of and more.
07:02Waiting for Jane at the end of the aisle are her sister,
07:05best friend, and hunky groom,
07:07as well as 27 additional bridesmaids.
07:10Each of these ladies dons one of the dresses Jane previously wore.
07:13They all show their full support,
07:15as the bridesmaid becomes a bride at last.
07:18I now pronounce you husband and wife.
07:21You may kiss the bride.
07:24Number 14. Meet your queen, coming to America.
07:29In this modern fairy tale,
07:31Lisa learns that the lowly Akeem is actually an African prince
07:34who journeyed to queens to find his queen.
07:37Akeem finds Lisa, who is overwhelmed by this information.
07:41Marry me, Lisa.
07:48So what do you think?
07:50Go on, honey. Take a chance.
07:53While Akeem is ready to renounce everything to be with her,
07:56Lisa just can't make a snap decision like that.
07:59Thankfully, it doesn't take her long to reconsider.
08:02When Akeem heads down the aisle,
08:04expecting his arranged bride,
08:06Lisa greets him behind the veil instead.
08:19As the nation of Zamunda celebrates,
08:21Lisa sees just how much Akeem was willing to give up for her.
08:24The offer's still on the table,
08:26although Lisa sees the royal lifestyle
08:28as a nice bonus to discovering true love.
08:31Would you really have given up all of this just for me?
08:34Of course.
08:35If you like, we can give it all up now.
08:40Nah.
08:43Number 13.
08:45Frog and Pig.
08:46The Muppets Take Manhattan.
08:48The third Muppet movie builds to a grand finale
08:50as the gang puts on a Broadway musical.
08:53The show ends with a staged wedding
08:55between Kermit and Piggy at a church
08:57with everyone in attendance,
08:59including familiar faces from Sesame Street.
09:10One face that Kermit doesn't recognize as the ministers,
09:14assuming that Gonzo would fill that role.
09:16Miss Piggy swapped him out,
09:18blurring the line between performance and reality.
09:21Although Kermit isn't sure about what he's saying I do to,
09:24he can't deny that Piggy makes him happy.
09:33The Henson team left audiences asking
09:35whether Kermit and Miss Piggy were now actually married.
09:39Technically, the minister was played by Dr. Cyril Jenkins,
09:42a real-life pastor.
09:43So we think it's beyond fiction.
09:45Either way, it's oddly romantic.
09:48What better way could anything end?
09:52Hand in hand with a friend.
10:05Number 12.
10:07A Spring Wedding.
10:08Steel Magnolias.
10:09Although Shelby is marrying Jackson,
10:11this tearjerker is more about the relationships
10:14between the women in this Louisiana community.
10:16This is reflected in the first act,
10:18as Shelby's mother and the others
10:20aid her through a hypoglycemic attack on her big day.
10:24Excuse me, should I call the doctor or something?
10:26No, she's a diabetic.
10:28She just has a little too much insulin, that's all.
10:31Just get a little more in it, she'll be all right.
10:34While this passes,
10:35Shelby knows that her diabetes
10:36will have long-term effects on her relationship with Jackson,
10:39most notably when it comes to having kids.
10:42Jackson is ready to start a family with Shelby
10:44no matter what, however.
10:46Since Steel Magnolias takes its time establishing these bonds,
10:49it's not only touching to see Shelby and Jackson united in matrimony.
11:06Seeing all of these colorful characters celebrate this union
11:09after a chaotic morning
11:10shows how it takes a village to put on a wedding.
11:13Dearly beloved.
11:29Here's another film with female friendship at its core.
11:32As such, it's only fitting that Lorelai and Dorothy
11:35would have a double wedding with their respective grooms.
11:38Lorelai marries Gus Edmund Jr.,
11:40while Dorothy weds Ernie Malone.
11:42On the surface, Lorelai and Dorothy may seem shallow.
11:46Dorothy.
11:47Did you ever have a rich pole, Walter?
11:49Maybe not, but who cares?
11:51I like a man who can run faster than I can.
11:55I hate to think where you'll wind up.
11:57You're wasting all your time on unrefined persons without any money.
12:00One has a thing for diamonds.
12:02The other doesn't care that much about wealth,
12:05so long as the guy's good looking.
12:06Even so, Lorelai makes a compelling argument.
12:09Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty?
12:14You might not marry a girl just because she's pretty.
12:17But my goodness, doesn't it help?
12:19And if you had a daughter,
12:21wouldn't you rather she didn't marry a poor man?
12:24But I would.
12:24You'd want her to have the most wonderful things in the world.
12:27Money isn't the sole reason to marry someone,
12:29but it's not necessarily wrong to care about that sort of thing.
12:33Lorelai and Dorothy are both women who want to have it all,
12:36love included.
12:37They get just what they want,
12:40achieving their life goals along with their friendship goals.
12:52Number 10.
12:54Wedding Before War.
12:55The Deer Hunter.
12:56People who watch The Deer Hunter for the first time
12:58often find themselves saying throughout the first hour,
13:01I thought this was supposed to be a war movie.
13:03It is, and one of the most emotionally grueling you'll ever experience.
13:08The subsequent two hours would lose their impact, though,
13:11if the first didn't flesh out the relationships the war takes a toll on.
13:15It does so against the backdrop of Angela and Stephen's wedding.
13:27The latter heads to Vietnam with his buddy shortly after.
13:30It's a joyous affair, with Nick and Linda also catching the marriage bug.
13:42As romantic as this all is, nothing will ever be the same again.
13:47War changes each man, with red wine on the bride's dress being a bad omen.
13:59Number 9.
14:00The Way You Look Tonight.
14:02My Best Friend's Wedding.
14:03I had the strangest dream.
14:07I dreamt that some psychopath was trying to break the two of you up.
14:12It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that My Best Friend's Wedding works up to,
14:16well, a wedding.
14:17Yet the film doesn't end exactly how you might expect.
14:21Going against the norm, Julia Roberts' Julianne doesn't get the guy.
14:25Rather, she comes to accept that her best friend loves someone else.
14:29To show her support, Julianne makes a heartfelt speech
14:32and dedicates a very special song to the couple.
14:35This is on loan.
14:40Until you two find your song.
14:50This gesture demonstrates just how far she has come as a person and a friend.
14:55Although Julianne is still single, she doesn't end up dancing alone at the reception.
14:59Her friend George crashes the wedding, sweeping Julianne off her feet.
15:03Love and friendship are in the air tonight.
15:06Maybe there will be sex, but by God, there'll be dancing.
15:17Number 8. Wedding Showers. About Time.
15:22Tim might have the ability to turn back the clock, but he can't control every little thing.
15:27This guy is determined to give his bride a flawless wedding day,
15:31switching out his best man several times in the process.
15:34When Tim asked me to be his best man, I was terrified.
15:39So I thought, um, best thing is to find a book about speeches.
15:43The wedding almost goes off without a hitch
15:45as Mary comes down the aisle in an untraditional red dress.
15:49Strong winds kick in after the ceremony, however,
15:52followed by a heavy rainstorm that causes the party tent to break.
16:00Although Tim is tempted to go back in time and change the wedding date,
16:04Mary assures him that everything was perfect.
16:07Now, that's true love.
16:08Do you wish we'd picked another less wet day?
16:11No. No.
16:13Not for the world.
16:16Phew.
16:17Number 7. Forrest and Jenny. Forrest Gump.
16:21Forrest dedicated three years of his life to running.
16:23Jenny, meanwhile, has spent years running from the fact
16:27that Forrest is the only man who's ever sincerely loved her.
16:30Knowing that her life is coming to an end,
16:32Jenny settles down with Forrest with what little time she has left.
16:36As Jenny comes back into his world,
16:38Forrest also learns that he's a father.
16:41Forrest already proposed marriage once,
16:43so he doesn't hesitate when Jenny revisits the topic.
16:46I'll take care of you if you're sick.
16:51Would you marry me, Forrest?
16:59Okay.
17:01Although it's bittersweet knowing that this won't last long,
17:04it's nothing short of heartwarming seeing Forrest and Jenny share in this blessed moment
17:08with several others in attendance,
17:10including Lieutenant Dan and his fiancée.
17:12This is my fiancée, Susan.
17:19Lieutenant Dan.
17:22Hi, Forrest.
17:23The wedding itself is simple yet deep,
17:26like the film's protagonist.
17:28Thank you, Forrest.
17:30You're your husband.
17:32You're so high when I was here.
17:35You're so high when I was here.
17:35You're so high when I was here.
17:36Number 6. Welcome to the family.
17:38My big fat Greek wedding.
17:40Are you ready?
17:41I'm ready.
17:42As overbearing as Tula's family can be,
17:45she can't imagine life without them.
17:47Ian respects Tula's love for her family
17:49and is willing to go through all the hoops to be part of the Portocallis clan.
17:53May I please date your daughter?
17:58No!
18:00After numerous mishaps,
18:02Tula and Ian finally make it to the altar for a big fat Greek wedding.
18:05While the ceremony is indeed romantic,
18:08it's the reception that really tugs at our heartstrings.
18:11As many of you know,
18:13our name Portocallos
18:15has come from the Greek word portokali,
18:18which means orange.
18:21So, okay,
18:23here tonight,
18:24we have apple and orange.
18:28Comparing Tula's family and Ian's family to apples and oranges,
18:32the father of the bride accepts his new son-in-law.
18:35Tula's parents additionally buy the couple a house,
18:37demonstrating that they're ready to let go.
18:40Oh my God.
18:42They bought us a house.
18:54Granted, the house is right next door,
18:57but a loving parent never completely lets go of their child.
19:02Number 5.
19:03A wedding to remember.
19:05A walk to remember.
19:06Do you love me?
19:07Landon and Jamie's tear-jerking romance is like a comet.
19:11It flies by quickly,
19:12but is truly a thing of beauty.
19:14Knowing that he doesn't have much time left with the dying Jamie,
19:17Landon asks his high school sweetheart
19:19to spend the rest of her days as his wife.
19:22Will you do something for me then?
19:24Anything.
19:29Will you marry me?
19:31The two tie the knot at the same church
19:33Jamie's late mother got married in.
19:35Jamie's reverend father officiates the wedding,
19:37making a speech guaranteed to get the waterworks going.
19:41Love is never boastful nor conceited.
19:44It is never rude or selfish.
19:47It does not take offense.
19:50It is not resentful.
19:53Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins,
19:57but delights in the truth.
20:00As the two are pronounced husband and wife,
20:03we're reminded that love and hope can be found
20:05even in the darkest of times,
20:07creating everlasting memories.
20:09Jamie and I had a perfect summer together.
20:13With more love than lots of people know in a lifetime.
20:17Number 4.
20:18Crazy Rich Wedding.
20:19Crazy Rich Asians.
20:21Although Colin and Araminta are the ones getting married,
20:24the central romance is between Nick and Rachel,
20:26who didn't realize her boyfriend's family was totally loaded.
20:30Surrounded by pre-wedding excess,
20:33Rachel is told more than once
20:34that she'll never fit into this lifestyle or family.
20:37Despite what his controlling mother says,
20:39Nick loves Rachel.
20:41He reiterates this at the ceremony,
20:43with Rachel reciprocating.
20:44You look spectacular, no?
20:47It's the double spanks.
20:48I can't breathe.
20:50It's not the clothes.
20:51It's just you.
20:55As the bride walks down an almost mystical aisle,
20:58the artificial stream, glowing flowers,
21:00and elegant music immerse us in a fantasy world.
21:04Yet it's arguably more romantic
21:06seeing Nick and Rachel mouth I love yous
21:08from across the room.
21:09For I can't help
21:16falling in love with you.
21:22In a place overflowing with romantic euphoria,
21:25these two share a moment that's modest,
21:28yet priceless.
21:35Peter and Juliet have given their consent
21:37and made their marriage vows to each other.
21:40They've declared their marriage
21:41by the giving and receiving of rings.
21:43I therefore proclaim that they are
21:45husband and wife.
21:47Although best man Mark promises Peter
21:50no surprises on his wedding day,
21:51he can't resist going just a little over the top.
21:54As Peter and Juliet begin to exit the church,
21:58a choir ambushes the newlyweds
21:59with a show-stopping rendition
22:01of All You Need Is Love.
22:02Did you do this?
22:04No.
22:06The inspiring performance just keeps building
22:09as a singer and orchestra join in.
22:11There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
22:16There's nothing you can say that can't be sung.
22:20There's nothing you can say
22:21that you can learn how to play the game.
22:24It's easy.
22:27Although the bride and groom are caught off guard,
22:29they can't help but become overwhelmed with joy.
22:32The wedding day will come and go,
22:34but the power of the Beatles will forever endure.
22:39All you need is love.
22:44Please all you need is love.
22:58Dearly beloved,
23:00we are gathered here together
23:01in the presence of family, friends, and loved ones
23:05for the purpose of uniting in matrimony.
23:07While the original Father of the Bride amounts to a lovely wedding,
23:11the 1991 remake arguably tops its predecessor in some respects.
23:15This comedy isn't just about the love between a man and a woman,
23:19but the love between a parent and child as well.
23:22It's a long walk to the altar
23:24as the panicking George Banks prepares to give his little girl away.
23:27In this moment, though,
23:28it slowly dawns on George that his daughter is all grown up.
23:32Who presents this woman in holy matrimony?
23:35I do.
23:36It's a sincere, meaningful scene
23:38that will resonate with any parent
23:40who's watched his or her child get married.
23:42George eventually realizes, however,
23:44that while Annie might not be a kid anymore,
23:47he'll always be her father.
23:49Well, she did it.
23:51And now, as my son said,
23:53it was time to party.
23:59Before we continue,
24:00check out this single from Current,
24:03EDM Transform.
24:04Check out the full track and album below.
24:12Number 1.
24:14The Sound of Wedding Bells.
24:15The Sound of Music.
24:25After much soul-searching,
24:27Maria eventually finds that she belongs with the Von Trapp family.
24:30This leads to an unforgettable wedding
24:32that's romantic in every sense of the word.
24:35Accompanied by the nuns that set her on the right path,
24:38Maria makes her way to a cathedral in a gorgeous wedding dress.
24:42Waiting inside are the seven Von Trapp children and her groom.
24:46Everything about this ceremony is simply enchanting.
24:49The scenery,
24:50the pacing,
24:51and, of course,
24:52the music.
24:53It's impossible not to get chills
24:55as the heavenly choir chimes in with a reprise of Maria.
25:07Then, when our heroine takes Captain Von Trapp's hand,
25:10it feels as if two kindred spirits are coming together in perfect harmony.
25:30What do you think is the most romantic movie wedding?
