3. Game of Thrones - "The Red Wedding" (Season 3, Episode 9) - Perhaps one of the most shocking wedding scenes ever filmed, the Red Wedding was a pivotal moment in the series, filled with treachery and heartbreak, leaving a lasting impact on viewers and characters alike.
4.

In Don't Worry Darling, directed by Olivia Wilde and starring Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, we dive into a 1950s utopian community with dark secrets lurking beneath its polished surface. The film combines stylish aesthetics with psychological suspense, exploring themes of empowerment, reality, and illusion. While there isn’t a wedding scene central to its plot, the film’s tension and mystery provide a backdrop for examining how individual desires and societal pressures can clash, much like the dynamics often present at a wedding.
