I alway thought that Meg March’s wedding of Little Women sounded heavenly, so simple and homely and I think Peter and Harriet’s wedding a triumph! And finally enough to eat!

Yes, I have, TeleriB. And I have giggled muchly at them.

even though the rabid fangirl part of me was waiting for Frodo to do something to disrupt the proceedings and carry off the groom for his own fell purposes. Twistie, have you seen the Very Secret Diaries of the LotR characters?

The Elizabeth/Darcy wedding is one I have often daydreamed about, not just because it was a double wedding and I wished I had a sister like Jane (or a sister at all really) that I liked so much as to share the day with….but because I desperately wanted a Mr. Darcy of my own.

I also would have liked to attend the Sesame Street wedding of Luis and Maria. Who wouldn’t love to party down with Muppets?!

Add me to the Wimsey guest list.

I’d love to have been a witness to either of Hildy’s and Walter’s weddings from His Girl Friday.

I definitely second the idea of seeing Nick and Nora get hitched. Was Asta on the groom’s side or the bride’s?

Anonymous, that’s the one I thought of right off the bat. Can you imagine a cloth-of-gold Worth gown? And on the sentiment side, I’ve always thought of that as the ultimate marriage of mind and heart.

Any wedding from a Jennifer Crusie book, but especially the flamingo wedding in “Agnes and the Hitman.” It kept me rolling the whole time. Nobody writes off-the-wall hilarious catastrophes like she does.

I’d have loved to been at both weddings of Becky Bloomwood and Luke Brandon in Sophie Kinsella’s Shopaholic series.
Also, I’d have liked to be at Elle Woods’ and Emmett Forrest’s wedding.

And Edward Cullen and Bella Swan’s wedding (from Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series)…. it was described in Breaking Dawn but it was from Bella’s POV and she was all sorts of dazed.
I was working the release party for Breaking Dawn at my local bookstore. I had about 30 preteens/early teens in front of me answering trivia questions. From slightly to my left I hear a bit of a conversation. One of the girls, dressed as Edward, said to her friend, dressed as Alice said “oh my gawd, they’re so going to do it in this book.”

I almost fell over laughing.

I am soooooo with you on #3. I can just picture myself in Marilla’s parlour, seeing Anne coming down the stairs towards Gilbert. Damn, now I’m getting all misty just picturing it.

I would also have loved to have been at the wedding of Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester, just so that I could have hugged Jane and given her my best wishes.

Ron and Hermione, definitely.

And lastly, Jamie and Claire from Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series. To see Jamie in his dress kilt….rawr.

Twistie, love your choices, especially Elizabeth Bennett and Fitzwilliam Darcy, Jadzia Dax and Worf, Samwise Gamgee and Rosie Cotton. I would add Nick and Nora Charles of the Thin Man series of movies (open bar and fabulous banter), Shrek and Fiona (Donkey is a party animal), Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler (over the top gown and party), also Ron Weasley and Hermoine Granger (who wouldn’t want to see a wizard wedding!)
