1) A wedding in limbo is the most unusual wedding
Piercing fans who want to get married have decided that their wedding will be memorable if they hang themselves with hooks during their wedding vows
that are caught on the skin.
This unusual wedding took place on April 20, 2007 in New Orleans, USA. The newlyweds, as it turned out, had a passion not only for each other, but also for manipulating their bodies.
Those who are frightened by such manipulations with the body can celebrate their triumph without shocking ceremonies, for example, by heading to some nearby suspension bridge:

He considers it a triumph of will that there are no corpses in his basement, and she still has feelings for the asshole who abandoned her before the wedding many years ago and subsequently managed to invite her to his wedding with someone else.
Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder, who bicker on screen for 90 minutes, are the only two who speak in Exotic Wedding. Therefore, sit back and get ready to listen - the whole point of this movie is in the dialogue, and except for the main actors, no one will open their mouth.
“Exotic Wedding” – 90 minutes of quarrel between Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder
These two don't look like a typical movie couple, but they help you believe in love again... For the first time, the second or the tenth time, it doesn't matter. Because if they managed to fall in love, then anyone with a hint of normality would definitely be able to do it. “Exotic Wedding” is a set of scenes with evil comments from two extra people at the celebration of life. They can’t stand the action they find themselves in, they can’t stand each other, but they always end up together because both of these “smiling optimists” had nowhere to go. He is a priest without faith, and she is a deaf choir. At least these two think so.
Neither the filming, nor the editing, nor the soundtracks will impress the viewer. This movie was completely shot in 10 days and at times one wonders whether it has a place in the cinema. But it turned out well, and “Exotic Wedding” will definitely find its audience. A lot of laughter is heard in the cinema hall and no one goes to the credits, therefore, Reeves and Ryder still attract attention with caustic jokes.
These two help you believe in love again
“Exotic Wedding,” oddly enough, will suit those viewers who are frankly tired of romantic comedies about weddings. If it doesn’t bother you that the main characters call the 80-year-old woman a “dead creature”, the bride a stupid pronoun lover, and they just can’t stand each other, you’ll like the film. He is interesting because he is not like the others.
You shouldn't take children to see the film - this is a movie about adults and for adults. Moreover, sex in the film is shown in such a way that even an adult can be traumatized to a certain extent. Although there are no explicit scenes in the film, you definitely don’t want children to listen to these dialogues.
“Exotic wedding” is exactly as strange as someone’s relationship sometimes seems wild from the outside. People feel good together under very different circumstances, and director Viktor Levin shows us one of these stories. IMDb gives the film a 6.7. Although the main characters would definitely say that the film is crime-free, like life itself, because “if everything is bad, then everything is bad, and if something isn’t bad, then there’s so much trouble.”
