The wedding is a huge, lavish Italian affair, with family business being conducted outside while an elaborate wedding reception takes place indoors. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional songs are performed and the scene is packed full of singing and dancing revellers. Taking a whole week to film and involving upwards of 750 extras, the wedding was an undoubtedly lively affair, instantly setting the pace for the rest of the movie. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dress The Part<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Italians are well known for their high end and impeccably designed styles, and the outfits in The Godfather wedding were no different.

Keira Knightley\u2019s character, Juliet, and her partner, Peter, are marrying in a traditional, church ceremony. The whole event is being videotaped by the best man, Mark &#8211; who you may recognise as a baby-faced Andrew Lincoln of The Walking Dead fame! In a rare movie moment, the wedding goes off without a hitch, even featuring a heartwarming moment where a big band pops up to play The Beatles \u201cAll You Need Is Love\u201d. It is later on when Juliet tunes into the footage of the big day, however, that things get a little interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Juliet had always assumed Mark hated her because of his distant behaviour towards her, however the tapes tell a different story. The footage Mark shot is full of lingering close ups of Juliet, basically cropping her husband (Mark\u2019s supposed \u2018best friend\u2019!) from the shot! Romantic or creepy? Personally, we think ruining your best friends wedding memento to showcase your stalker tendencies isn\u2019t the ideal way to \u2018get the girl\u2019, but hey &#8211; what do we know?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it didn\u2019t end there! Mark, after realising Juliet had watched the tape, decided the best course of action was to show up at her (and her husband&#8217;s) house on Christmas Eve and declare his love for her. With her husband (and did we mention &#8211; his <\/span><b>best friend<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">?!) in the other room, Mark decided to keep his confession secret with the help of cue cards. Yes &#8211; this is the infamous \u201cto me you are perfect\u201d moment: when you know the full story, it maybe isn\u2019t quite so sweet!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dress The Part<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bypassed character throughout this whole story is of course the groom, Peter, who we think needs to find himself a new best friend.

He then flees with his girl, and the two leave town on a bus, laughing together. The moment that follows has become one of the most parodied scenes in film history; Ben and Elaine\u2019s laughter dies down, and they sit uncomfortably glancing at each other. This moment leaves the question hanging &#8211; what exactly happens after the \u2018guy gets the girl\u2019, and is there always a happy ending?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dress The Part<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benjamin wasn\u2019t exactly dressed for a wedding, as the wedding wasn\u2019t his own!

The Red Wedding in Game of Thrones was without a doubt one of the most shocking weddings in TV history. The episode, titled \u201cThe Rains Of Castamere\u201d sent shockwaves across social media that dubbed it the \u201cmost social episode of any HBO show, ever\u201d, with mentions across Twitter, Facebooks and blogs and forums surpassing 700,000 within 24 hours of the episode airing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, what made this episode such a talking point? Well, in true Game of Thrones style &#8211; a massacre. During the wedding reception the groom and \u2018King in the North\u2019 Robb Stark, along with his family and bannermen, were all viciously slaughtered by their hosts. George R R Martin is known for his ability to brutally kill off his main characters, however the loss of such a large portion of the much loved Stark household hit hard for many fans of the series.

Robb greeted his ill fated bride wearing a dark brown tunic and brown trousers, leather boots, a belt with a sword and a cloak decorated with the Stark coat of arms. Maybe best to leave this one for a fancy dress party?<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re looking for the perfect finishing touch for a wedding ensemble, whether it\u2019s your own big day or someone else&#8217;s, be sure to explore the full collection of <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiesrus.co.uk\/wedding-ties-c2\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding ties<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiesrus.co.uk\/bow-ties-c20\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bow ties<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiesrus.co.uk\/waistcoats-c25\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">waistcoats<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at Ties R Us.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the romantic to the outright tragic, the big screen has had it\u2019s fair share of weddings; and with that comes a fair share of great wedding outfits!
