Four Weddings

Ceremony times four

Four Weddings is shorthand for *Four Weddings and a Funeral*, the 1994 British romantic comedy that established Hugh Grant's stammering, self-deprecating persona as a type.

The film follows a group of friends through the title events.

References to Four Weddings often evoke a certain vision of witty, upper-middle-class English romance: It was very Four Weddings—everyone charming and flustered.
