It's very nice to be asked to anybody's wedding. Particularly if it's the Prince of Wales. I learned a lot from it, which was to end early and get away.

My sister, singer Jessie Ware, and I are always exchanging music. We brainstormed her wedding playlist for months. Hannah Ware

It took two months from the day my fiance proposed to my first Google search for 'wedding planning: how?' Now, let me interrupt myself here and share how much I hate using the word 'fiance.' It's so fancy, and it's hard not to sound like a jerk saying it. Which is why I will be using my own word for fiance: gloob. Ellie Kemper

Do I believe in coupling? Do I believe in commitment? Do I believe in co-parenting, raising children together, having a family, and growing old with someone? I absolutely believe in all of those things. I just don't believe that you need to be married to do that. I love going to weddings, though. I do love a good wedding. Laura Wasser

Let's say you go to a friend's wedding, or Thanksgiving, or Halloween. It'd be great the next day to see what went on with your friends' Thanksgiving weekend, or all the costumes they wore on Halloween, and be able to look back and see what they wore the year before, and the year before that. Mike McCue

The real act of marriage takes place in the heart, not in the ballroom or church or synagogue. It's a choice you make - not just on your wedding day, but over and over again - and that choice is reflected in the way you treat your husband or wife. Barbara De Angelis

I remember when I was in school, they would ask, 'What are you going to be when you grow up?' and then you'd have to draw a picture of it. I drew a picture of myself as a bride. Gwen Stefani

I chose my wife, as she did her wedding gown, for qualities that would wear well. Oliver Goldsmith

I always had boyfriends, but I never imagined a proposal or a wedding. To me, that was like having a ball and chain round your neck. Sandra Bullock

O month when they who love must love and wed. Helen Hunt Jackson

I'd been a wedding singer through college, but after a few years of doing my best renditions of jazz standards to clinking glasses and the sound of forks on salad, I thought, 'Oh God, if this is all I do, I'll never be able to live with myself.' Idina Menzel

My husband, Jim, converted to Judaism just before our wedding. Anita Diament

Most kids don't get to go their parents' wedding. Ken Livingstone

The one thing that I'm in charge of in this wedding is the food. Rob Mariano

I was a wedding singer as a teenager. John Legend

I felt very unstressed on my wedding day. I'm very grateful for that... spending the day on my own, being super quiet and happy and just puttering around doing my own thing. Sonya Walger

Even if it's your wedding, if you're a guy, it's boring. Blake Shelton

When I celebrated my bar mitzvah, there was no cake. Today, there is no such thing as a bar mitzvah in the United States without a special cake. It can be even more complicated and expensive than a wedding cake, because bar-mitzvah cakes are often based on a particular theme. Ron Ben-Israel

I'd want it to be really special to both of us, but I'm a huge fan of 'At Last' as a wedding song. But what's also really cool is songs that no one else would have at their wedding, like an obscure Radiohead song. Mary Lambert

The vibe of my wedding is kind of going to be ethereal. Simple and modern, in a way, but with a lot of greenery. So, eucalyptus, olive branches, moss, and candles - it's going to be very... I want it to feel very comfortable, but obviously sleek. Sasha Pieterse

I love 3-D. I have been a big fan of 3-D for a long, long time. I took my 1988 wedding pictures in 3-D! John Lasseter

A young bride is like a plucked flower; but a guilty wife is like a flower that had been walked over. Honore de Balzac

I only did karaoke once in my life. It was with Courtney Love and it was a total disaster. She pulled me on stage in front of 500 people at a wedding. I'd never done karaoke before. Jared Leto

That to me was the most poignant part of Diana's wedding; as she was walking up the aisle and her eyes were going left to right, looking at people and smiling in the way that Diana did - and that diamond tiara glittering like mad. It was great. Bruce Oldfield

Hierarchical formulations died because their wedding cake levels posited a multiply fractured cosmos that does not match the Space Age revelation of a unified universe in which the earth is clearly in, rather than separated from, the heavens. Hierarchical representations do not reflect what either the world or we are like. Eugene Kennedy

I want to be a simple bride when I get married. I want a beach wedding where I am running around on the sand in a white dress. Sonakshi Sinha

So many little girls dream about their wedding day. But with actresses, sometimes it's the inverse, because we get to be the centre of attention, looked up and down, dressed up for premieres all the time. The pull isn't quite as great. Natalie Dormer

You can give poor people this royal wedding to watch and make them feel good about themselves, or you can give them something useful like, I don't know... a toaster. Bo Burnham

For years my wedding ring has done its job. It has led me not into temptation. It has reminded my husband numerous times at parties that it's time to go home. It has been a source of relief to a dinner companion. It has been a status symbol in the maternity ward. Erma Bombeck

I try to remember, as I hear about friends getting engaged, that it's not about the ring and it's not about the wedding. It's a grave thing, getting married. And it's easy to get swept up in the wrong things. Gwyneth Paltrow

I myself was a wedding photographer when I was, like, 16. Kacy Hill

The wedding ring on my left hand was bought by my grandfather, Samuel Miliband, in Brussels in 1920. I never knew him, as he died when I was one. But his ring was kept by my aunt until it was placed on my finger by my wife Louise 32 years later. David Miliband

Just because marriage didn't work for us doesn't mean we don't believe in the institution. Just because our own marital track records are mixed doesn't mean our hearts don't lift at the sight of our daughters' Tiffany-blue wedding invitations. Sandra Tsing Loh

I'm getting married because I'm in love with a girl and want to spend my life with her. You can't live your life doing what other people want you to or you'll be miserable. At some point you just have to be yourself. Dan Marino


People's hands fascinate me. It's tempting to look at a businessman's left hand and see if there's an indentation from a missing wedding ring. Or maybe there's a tan line and the skin is pressed down where's he's worked a ring off his finger. Benedict Cumberbatch

I loved everything about my wedding look, but, in retrospect, I would have changed the position of where we attached the veil on my head. Make sure you test a few different placements and styles before the big day to make a clear vision and plan with your hairstylist. Margherita Missoni

A lot of people think I'm that guy in 'Betsy's Wedding', but I'm not. What it is for me is that, on some level, I connect with the character emotionally. Anthony LaPaglia

The first thing I ever saw Bradley Cooper in was 'Wedding Crashers.' Ed Weeks

I wanna stay an eternal girlfriend. I want to have my boyfriend's children, but I don't think we need a piece of paper to regulate the game, and we don't have to go through the whole stress of a wedding and suffering to throw a good party. Shakira

In my head, at least, the business of spinning stories has no closing time. Twists in my characters' lives, glimpses of their secrets, obstacles to their dreams... all arrive unbidden when I'm getting cash at the ATM, walking my son to camp, singing a hymn at a wedding. Julia Glass

And we've got a toaster and everything. So there is no reason for the wedding. Karl Pilkington

The most terrifying thing in the world was having to give a speech at my girlfriend's wedding. I was physically shaking and sweating the entire time. Lindy Booth

On the publicity tour of 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding,' I was asked over and over again, if, as the writer, I felt it was a fair depiction of real life to have someone of my er, below average looks, hook up with hottie John Corbett. Nia Vardalos

The trouble with wedlock is that there's not enough wed and too much lock. Christopher Morley

I'd like to do 'My Best Friend's Wedding,' 'Pretty Woman,' Meg Ryan type stuff. Romantic comedies. I'd love to do some action stuff as well. Jennifer Love Hewitt

I just wrapped this movie called 'The Wedding Crashers' which was a pretty big break for me. Bradley Cooper

For a girl, the wedding is when you're married. For a guy, it's when you get engaged. It takes a real aggressive human being to back out between the ring and the wedding. Max Greenfield

Many people spend more time in planning the wedding than they do in planning the marriage. Zig Ziglar


Bride: A woman with a fine prospect of happiness behind her. Ambrose Bierce

My problem with the wedding industry started when I studied in college and liked to have the television on in the background, and 'A Wedding Story' on TLC always came on, and I'd get irritated that the story of two people making a lifelong commitment to each other could be encapsulated in a half-hour show about the party they throw. Jessica Valenti

I've been in a couple of weddings where the coolest people that were the most day before so mellow and then the day of the wedding freaking out. Matthew McConaughey

Ariel may look a lot like Barbie, and her adventure may be limited to romance and over with the wedding bells, but unlike, say, Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty, she's active, brave and determined, the heroine of her own life. She even rescues the prince. And that makes her a rare fish, indeed, in the world of preschool culture. Katha Pollitt

I wore an Urban Outfitters dress on my wedding day. It was one I had in the back of my wardrobe. It was white. We went to City Hall here in New York. I wore it with blue velvet boots my husband bought for me. I loved it. It was my favorite thing. It was chilled and spontaneous. Kaya Scodelario

It was about 2012, 2013. I started from zero. Small fashion shows, small photoshoots. I've seen a lot. I've seen a lot of things up close. I married my sister off; I gave jahez for her wedding. I tried to keep relations going with my family. I bought a house for them in Multan. My parents are settled in Multan; my house is there. Qandeel Baloch

For most couples, the first event they plan together is their wedding. Lenny Platt

Growing up, I had one very specific idea of what a wedding should be, and that was the wedding of Fraulein Maria and Captain von Trapp in 'The Sound of Music.' Ellie Kemper

Jody Hill, who I created 'Eastbound And Down' and 'Fist Foot Way' with, was my best man at my wedding. Danny McBride

For my first wedding, I cried all the way down the aisle. My fake eyelash came off. My nose was red. My eyes were swollen. I'm not one of those pretty criers. Sherri Shepherd

A bride at her second marriage does not wear a veil. She wants to see what she is getting. Helen Rowland

My grandfather Frank Lloyd Wright wore a red sash on his wedding night. That is glamour! Anne Baxter

I never wanted a big wedding. I never wanted to wear a white dress or throw a bouquet. Taylor Jenkins Reid

If you're engaged more than a year, there's something up. There's lot of debate as to whether one should or shouldn't get married, but when you get engaged, it's a promise to get married, and if you don't just do it within a year, one of the parties is using the excuse of, like, 'I can't find the right venue' to put off the wedding. Nicholas Stoller

Recently, I was in Bernalda, my dad's ancestral home town in Italy. He has just refurbished a palazzo and turned it into a hotel, so we had my sister's wedding there. It was beautiful. Roman Coppola

There's a big difference between falling in love with someone and falling in love with someone and getting married. Usually, after you get married, you fall in love with the person even more. Dave Grohl

Everywhere I go, people ask me about Jennifer Aniston's wedding. Everywhere I go. I always say to her, I'm like, 'Being friends with you is a burden. You think it's hard to be friends with me?' Chelsea Handler

When I was in high school, there was 'Superbad' and 'The Girl Next Door' and 'Wedding Crashers' and all these great movies. You hope to be a part of something that's smart, funny and in that Todd Phillips-vein. You want to make something like 'Superbad.' That movie was so good and so funny. Miles Teller

I don't follow trends. I make each cake for a particular wedding, or event. Ron Ben-Israel

She tells enough white lies to ice a wedding cake. Margot Asquith

The chain of wedlock is so heavy that it takes two to carry it - and sometimes three. Heraclitus

I had a huge Indian wedding, and I did it for my wife, and I did it for my white friends. Hasan Minhaj

The proposal is the only thing that the guy has control over in the entire wedding deal. It is your one chance to make this moment stand out, not only for you, but for her. Drew Seeley

I usually have a few coins in my pocket when I'm playing, but the one I use to mark my ball on the green is a special silver coin that my wife designed for me. It has our wedding date inscribed on it. Louis Oosthuizen

I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury. Groucho Marx

A delicious smoothie is a really easy way of taking on lots of amazing skin boosting ingredients and was my first port of call every morning in the run-up to my wedding - I'll throw in frozen berries, banana, spinach, almond butter, almond milk, and oats for a quick breakfast quite often. Ella Woodward

I've always had a propensity for getting the cursive down pretty well. What it evolved into was my pseudo-waitressing job when I was auditioning. I didn't wait tables. I did calligraphy for the invitations for, like, Robin Thicke and Paula Patton's wedding. Meghan Markle

My sister really drooled a lot when she was younger. For her wedding, I was going to get her one of those lace drool cups that go around the ears. Cheri Oteri

Wedding: the point at which a man stops toasting a woman and begins roasting her. Helen Rowland

I love dress shopping, and I love talking about the wedding food. That's what makes me happy. Christine Teigen

I have three older brothers, and we all have different combinations of parents. My father was the best man at my mom's first wedding! And my brother's mother - my dad's first wife - is the sister to my mom's first husband's second wife. So my brothers are both stepcousins and stepbrothers. It's very '70s rock. Inara George

Ever since I was a little girl, I wanted Valentino to design my wedding dress. Valentino is the definition of timeless elegance. I don't think there's another couture house like it. Nicky Hilton

When I saw Kate Moss's champagne tower from her wedding, I was like, 'Okay, check - I want that. I want fireworks.' Nikki Bella

You know that scene in 'Runaway Bride' when Julia Roberts puts on the amazing wedding dress and looks at herself in the mirror and goes, 'Swish, swish'? I loved that moment so much when I was a little girl. Lily James

The most dangerous food is wedding cake. James Thurber


It happened in Miami, in Coral Gables, a great big ol' Cuban wedding. It was pretty intense. Jon Secada

I've been married before, but I've never had my dream wedding in Vegas. I wanted to do it there because it's casual, quick, not religious and, most of all, very romantic. Sinead O'Connor

When I was little, I watched a lot of Disney movies - so I always imagined a big fairytale wedding as a kid. But when marriage became real, I felt an intimate wedding with close family and friends would be better. Hazel Keech

People always complain, 'you never invited me to your wedding', but I prefer casual weddings. Sinead O'Connor

I'm one of those people who has always been a bridesmaid. Piper Laurie

People didn't just wear wedding dresses in the past. They also wore plain cotton shifts beneath them. As pretty as the dresses might be, and as lovely as they might look on display, if a museum doesn't hang the shifts beside them or acknowledge that the shifts existed, that exhibit's incomplete. Susanna Kearsley

It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Catherine Middleton to create her wedding dress, and I have enjoyed every moment of it. It was such an incredible honor to be asked, and I am so proud of what we and the Alexander McQueen team have created. Sarah Burton

A wedding is such a girl thing. Selma Blair

A wedding, people decide to get married, it comes out of such love for one another and then women can turn into these other people. They're planning something that's the biggest event they'll ever plan in their lives and it turns them into this other person, so it's not totally the guy's fault that he's feeling disconnected from this person. Alison Brie

A person's character is but half formed till after wedlock. Charles Simmons

Personally, I'm an advocate for short engagements. Long sometimes means there is a reason for it. Two years engaged and no wedding... I'd be upset. Emily Blunt

All my tattoos except my first were not planned. I would just go into the shop late at night with friends and ask for something on the spot. My first is my parents' wedding date. I thought it would soften the blow of getting a tattoo. Hailey Baldwin

The Hiltons know how to put on a good wedding, that's all I can say. Conrad Sewell

When Andrew went with the girls, we were talking all morning and he was saying, 'It's okay. Just remember we had such a good day. Our wedding was so perfect.' Because we're such a unit together. He made me feel very part of the day on April the 29th. Sarah Ferguson

It's always great to have things from France at a wedding. It's symbolic of style, of culture, of taste. Andre Leon Talley

A wedding, a great wedding, is just a blast. A celebration of romance and community and love... What is unfun about that? Nothing. Ariel Levy

Recently, I was preparing to sing Springsteen's 'If I Should Fall Behind' for a wedding and was unable to get through it without tears. My wife handed me 'Love You Forever.' I read it. I cried. But that cry somehow cured me of crying while singing the song. Go figure. Clyde Edgerton

I used to love to create outfits, and I still do - I just don't have the time. How can you wear one thing and never wear it again? Even my wedding dress - I had a dress made that I could wear again. I'm a child of the depression, so I'm very, very practical. Iris Apfel

Monica Seles: I'd hate to be next door to her on her wedding night. Peter Ustinov

About 80 percent of the photos on Flickr are public and searchable by everyone.

Stewart Butterfield

I think everyone dreams of that nice romantic wedding. Lance Bass

I love auditioning. Since 'The Notebook' and 'Wedding Crashers,' I don't have to audition anymore, and I miss it. You get to show your interpretation of the character. I get nervous when I don't audition. What if they hate what I want to do? Rachel McAdams


A wedding dress is both an intimate and personal for a woman - it must reflect the personality and style of the bride. Carolina Herrera

When I auditioned for 'Wedding Crashers,' the producers had never seen any of my other work except for Bond. I got 'Wedding Crashers' partly because I was a Bond girl. Jane Seymour

The wedding took place in Vermont, where they have legalized gay civil unions, and I married a woman. Craig Ferguson

I ate no butcher's meat, lived chiefly on fruits, vegetables, and fish, and never drank a glass of spirits or wine until my wedding day. To this I attribute my continual good health, endurance, and an iron constitution. John James Audubon

Where does it stop? You get offered money for your wedding, then for your kids, new houses, holidays... We earn enough from football and sponsorships, why do you need any more? Ryan Giggs

When I decided to get married at 40, I couldn't find a dress with the modernity or sophistication I wanted. That's when I saw the opportunity for a wedding gown business. Vera Wang

It's interesting because a lot of my 16-year-old kids' friends know me from 'Wedding Crashers,' and not so much Bond. My kids have a good laugh. I was 20 then. The look I had then was the look that a lot of their friends are assuming now. They think it's cool. What goes around comes around. Jane Seymour

Neither my fiance nor I take ourselves too seriously, and we want our wedding to reflect our lightheartedness. Leah Pipes

The pilot is the wedding, and the series is the relationship. Thomas Gibson

I saw a photograph of a wedding conducted by Reverend Moon of the Unification Church. I wanted to understand this event, and the only way to understand it was to write about it. Don DeLillo

Wedding is destiny, and hanging likewise. John Heywood

Jealousy, greed, fear. We're all full of these things. But also love and compassion. If you saw a drowning baby, it wouldn't matter if you were wearing a tuxedo on the way to your own wedding. You'd jump in to save him. John McAfee

It was never important for a wedding to be about anything other than me and my partner. A big celebration was never my cup of tea. Mandy Moore

I went looking for dresses and realized there was a niche I could fill in the wedding dress market. Monique Lhuillier

Not everyone can be successful selling fashion at $25,000 for a wedding outfit. Certain designers are able to do that. And there is only a certain amount of consumers who can do that. The real opportunity is in that $25 garment. Imran Amed

I'm obsessed with Kate Middleton. Obsessed. I loved the Royal Wedding. I was so cynical going into it, and pseudo-political about the whole thing, but as soon as I saw her, I was utterly charmed. I'm just completely enchanted by Kate and William. Anne Hathaway

We served Twinkies and Sno Balls at our wedding. We put them on silver trays so they looked elegant - but they were the real deal! Dylan Lauren

I've never crashed a wedding. When I was a kid I, of course, used to crash parties. Crashing a wedding is difficult though because you have to have the suit, and you have to have information in case someone catches you. You have to know at least some names and something. Christopher Walken

A wedding is a funeral where you smell your own flowers. Eddie Cantor

My family is almost exactly like the one in 'Monsoon Wedding'. We are very open, fairly liberal, loud people. Mira Nair

I love the royal family. I even got up in the middle of the night to watch Kate and William's wedding. And I never miss the Queen's speech on Christmas Day. I feel it's my duty as an English-born woman to watch. Lily Collins

I'm the person who will go to a wedding and switch the place cards around because I don't want to sit next to someone I don't know, because I'm so bad at chatting to strangers. Sharon Horgan

Granddad offered me one hundred dollars if I would cut my mop of curly hair into a neat military style. Just before the wedding, I got a light trim. It wasn't enough for Granddad, and he didn't pay. David Eisenhower

There's no scenario in which I wouldn't want my entire family at a wedding. Jordan Rodgers

I don't really have many regrets. I did miss a lot of the events in the days leading up to my sister's wedding because I was at a U17 camp. There were moments like that growing up when I felt like I focused too much on soccer. But that's probably the reason I am where I am today. Alex Morgan

I can see why people love the idea of a big white wedding - it is a day when they are the centre of attention and get to wear a beautiful dress. But that sounds awful to me because that is like getting ready to walk down the red carpet. Lucy Punch

At my wedding, I was dancing so furiously that I fell hard on my kneecaps. The next morning, my knees were so swollen that I had to get a wheelchair at the airport to go on my honeymoon. Casey Wilson

I met Prince William at a musical festival and he let me know he was a fan of my music. But the invitation to sing at his wedding reception came completely out of the blue. The fact that Kate and William knew the words to my songs was very touching. Ellie Goulding

I still love touring rock clubs around the world, and that's something that's really a part of me. I love making albums, and I'm a wedding singer on the side; that's my parallel career. So I love all those aspects of making music. Jens Lekman

We always talk about how the first several seasons were faithful to the books, and anybody who wanted to could go onto Wikipedia and learn Ned Stark gets beheaded or about The Red Wedding, and most people don't want to know - because why ruin a story? David Benioff

I used to work all the time, and now if there is a wedding, there's a concert, I'm there. Petra Nemcova

I just wasn't one of those girls who dreamt of her wedding day and the birth of her first child. Sarah Jessica Parker

I love a black wedding dress. Vera Wang

An embellished top with slim pants is great, even for a wedding. Brad Goreski
