70 free Wedding Movies trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
65 free Wedding Movies trivia questions with answers. Weddings are Hollywood's favourite pressure cooker: one day, one venue, every relationship in the room about to be tested. This quiz covers the films built around that day, from The Philadelphia Story and Father of the Bride to Four Weddings and a Funeral, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Bridesmaids, The Hangover, Mamma Mia! and Crazy Rich Asians. There is a full Wedding Crashers trivia round inside it too: what John and Jeremy actually do for a living, what they spike Sack's wine with, where Jeremy gets shot, which senator cameos at the Cleary wedding, who was nearly cast as Chazz, which Bond was pencilled in for the sequel that never happened, and the box-office record the film set for R-rated comedies. The rest of the 70 questions mix crowd-pleasers (whose tiger is in the bathroom?) with casting stories, records and awards trivia that will separate the casual viewer from the person who has seen Muriel's Wedding a dozen times. Every answer has been checked against the film's Wikipedia article or another primary source, and each question shows its citation, so you can settle any argument at the table.
