    • Trivia
      The butterfly jean jacket that Julia wears throughout the movie belongs to Drew Barrymore. Director Frank Coraci liked her jacket and told her to wear it as part of her costume.
    • Goofs
      Frank and Rosie are supposed to be celebrating their 50th anniversary. However, the picture on the wall of their wedding is dated 1948, which is attuned to the film's release date in 1998. The film is set sometime in the 1980s.
    • Quotes

      Robbie: [singing] I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad / Carry you around when your arthritis is bad / All I wanna do is grow old with you. / I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches / build you a fire if the furnace breaks / Oh it could be so nice, growin old with you. / I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold. / Need you, feed you, I'll even let you hold the remote control. / So let me do the dishes in the kitchen sink / Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink. / Oh I could be the man to grow old with you. / I wanna grow old with you.

    • Crazy credits
      On the VHS version, after the credits there are three Karaoke style 80's songs.
    • Alternate versions
      The Extended Version, available on UK DVD known as "Totally Awesome Edition" adds around three minutes to the Theatrical Version and features an uncontentious additional dialogue scene where Robbie talks to Rosie about penis size.

    a break from the 'yuck of the world'
    I think that 'the wedding singer' is a simple, feelgood movie, which doesn't try to be anything else.

    Like Jim Carey, who took many goes to strike the right balance, Adam Sandler is a far better comedian when he stops trying and realize he is far funnier being himself rather than over-the top characters (like the awful 'Billy Madison')and allows his supporting cast to be goofy.

    My 10 year old son is a huge fan of all the SNL (90s)crew and their movies, and loved this even more than '50 first dates'. The wedding singer appeals to the those waiting to feel that way about someone and those of us who feel that way right now about someone.

    The 'knockers' of this flick would be those that can only relate to the dumped 'Robbie Hart', or have no heart at all!

    So if you can relate to loving and being loved (by anyone!), this film will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy. Great to watch with the whole family!!

    Just had to add...being a teenager in the 80's probably helped my endearment to this movie.
