If you’re knee-deep in wedding planning and need a break (or just a reminder of how magical love stories can be), there’s nothing like a good wedding movie. Whether you’re in the mood for pure laughter, total tears, or over-the-top bridal drama, these classics are guaranteed to deliver.

Here are our top picks for wedding movies that stand the test of time:

1. Bridesmaids (2011)
A chaotic bridal party, hilarious meltdowns, and the unforgettable airplane scene. This modern comedy classic is relatable, ridiculous, and ridiculously funny.

2. Father of the Bride (1991)
Steve Martin perfectly captures every dad’s emotional rollercoaster. It’s sweet, funny, and hits all the right sentimental notes.

3. My Best Friend’s Wedding (1997)
Julia Roberts planning to sabotage her best friend’s wedding? It’s messy, iconic, and bittersweet in all the right ways.

4. The Wedding Singer (1998)
Adam Sandler + Drew Barrymore + ’80s wedding music = perfection. A feel-good film with great heart.

5. Mamma Mia! (2008)
Greek island scenery, ABBA music, and surprise dads. Pure joy and a must-watch for musical lovers.

6. The Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002)
Family chaos, culture clashes, and Windex-based wisdom make this film unforgettable.

7. 27 Dresses (2008)
Always the bridesmaid? Katherine Heigl’s journey is fun, heartwarming, and very wardrobe-heavy.

8. The Proposal (2009)
Not exactly a wedding movie, but with an iconic fake engagement that turns into something real. Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds’ chemistry makes it a must.

9. Runaway Bride (1999)
Julia Roberts again, this time as a bride who can’t seem to say “I do” — until she meets the right one.

10. Steel Magnolias (1989)
Southern charm, strong women, and a heart-wrenching wedding storyline that will leave you sobbing and smiling.

So whether you’re looking for inspiration, distraction, or just a reason to grab popcorn and unwind, these wedding movie favorites are always worth the rewatch.
