WTF!? Friday PLUS Trivia: Goin' to the Chapel

A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I got married. A couple of years later, my sister got married, and I thought I even blogged about that, but I guess not because I can't find anything. Anyway. Next weekend my other sister is getting married, and since I'm in the wedding, I'll kind of be busy and stuff, so this week is Wedding Week here on The Blog.

The collage is made up of some of my favorite pictures from our wedding day -- one of these pictures I love so much and find so awesome that I framed yet another print of it and gave it to someone as a wedding present as recently as last year (hint: it's the picture on the bottom right). I guess that's kind of the "WTF!?" for this week -- "WTF do you mean, you're STILL giving out wedding pictures as presents, you cheap bint?"

So ... this week's trivia is all about weddings. Standard trivia rules apply. There will NOT be trivia next week because I will be stealing My Anonymous Mother's Ativan* in preparation for the festivities, so make this one count! Can you name ...
  • Three movies with "wedding(s)" in the title
  • Three songs with "wedding(s)" in the title
  • Three movies with "bride(s)" in the title
  • Three songs with "marriage" or "marry" (or some variation) in the title
  • Two famous brides from history or pop culture
  • Two famous couples who are/were married for more than 30 years
  • Something old that a bride might have with her on her wedding day
  • Something new that a bride might have with her on her wedding day
  • Something borrowed that a bride might have with her on her wedding day
  • Something blue that a bride might have with her on her wedding day
Twenty possible points -- this one should be easy. I'll post my answers after 5pm on Monday. Good luck!


* = Not true. I'll be stealing her Xanax.

  5. OOOOOH! Tina's a ringer! NICE WORK! You matched my answers on at least 50% of these. And really, there was a LOT of room for variation on the famous brides and famous couples questions. I have my answers queued up already, they're going live at just after five.

    SEE YOU THIS WEEKEND. Wear your boogie shoes, because we're bringing the camera!
