The 5 Most Inspiring Movie Weddings

It’s gotten really cold outside. How lucky, right? Because now it’s finally time again to snuggle up under a wool blanket on the couch at home and watch classic movies. And if your eye catches your sparkling engagement ring as you reach for the popcorn, then we have just the right movie inspiration for you. Whether it’s a retro film or a modern comedy—the directors and costume designers behind these 5 weddings, which we consider the most inspiring, have done an amazing job of getting you in the mood for your own wedding.

1. The Upper Class

This 1957 musical film is a trip down memory lane—and it’s well worth it. The swing rhythm that runs throughout the film puts you in a good mood, but above all, it’s the charm of a very special actress and her dress that makes this film worth watching: Grace Kelly in her final role! Her dress, embroidered with delicate flowers, could still be worn just as it is today.

2. Sex and the City

Yes, of course this movie has to be on our list. But when it comes to wedding inspiration, we’re not talking about the Vivienne Westwood wedding dress that “Carrie Bradshaw” wears at the beginning. That’s just a little over-the-top. On the other hand, the chic white blazer and midi skirt that Carrie wears later in the movie are simple and elegant. Perfect, for example, for a civil ceremony. Whether you treat yourselves to the expensive Manolo Blahniks from the movie is up to you.

3. 27 Dresses

Whatever you may think of this American comedy, it’s impossible to get any more outfit inspiration than this. As a wedding guest, actress Katherine Heigl wears many different dresses to other people’s weddings. And, of course, there’s a wedding dress at the end, too. The perfect movie for a bridesmaids’ movie night!

4. Rosa's Wedding

The Spanish film “Rosa’s Wedding” is a real hidden gem. On her journey toward a self-determined life, 45-year-old Rosa decides to get married. The plot is funny, honest, and a little quirky. The wedding dress isn’t the main focus, but the Spanish setting is fantastic and inspires you to plan your wedding exactly the way you want it, no matter what others say.

5. The Bride Who Can't Bring Herself to Do It

Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. Beautiful, timeless wedding dresses. A love story with a great sense of humor. There’s not much more to say. Check out this classic and get inspired!
