The Wedding Date Soundtracks




As I said in other articles, marriage is a subject that inspired many film producers, singers or writers. Many producers adapted the plot of their movies on weddings and what happens on these big days. From dramas to comedies, all movies of this type gained a lot of success and popularity.




Nowadays couples, especially the young ones, want to customize their wedding according to favorite movie. Many of them choose their wedding playlist from famous movies based on weddings. Beside the American Pie series with its American Wedding and My Fat Greek Wedding, another movie that influenced newlyweds in making their wedding playlist is the movie The Wedding Date.

The Wedding Date is a 2005 romantic comedy directed by Clare Kilner. The movie was a great and successful release achieving $47 million worldwide at the box office. The movie is based on the book Asking for Trouble written by Elizabeth Young.

Being single girl for a long time, Kate Ellis (Debra Messing) hires Nick Mercer (Dermot Mulroney), a male escort, to be her boyfriend at her sister’s wedding because she was afraid of confronting her ex-fiancé who dumped her two years ago. Kate and her “boyfriend” finish by falling in love. In the end, The Wedding Date proved to be one of the most beautiful love affairs.

The movie also had some soundtracks that set its great mood. Let’s see the list of the soundtracks in order to know what to look for if you want to fill in your wedding playlist.
