IFI Documentary Festival: THE IRISH WEDDING Director: Alex Fegan 62 mins, Ireland, 2021, Digital Book cinema tickets Watch on Watch on IFI Home From Monday September 6th, in line with government guidelines, all patrons must show proof of vaccination upon entering the cinema screen. Celebrating the joys of an Irish Wedding in all its pleasant predictability – the requisite chats about the weather, the haggle over the beef or salmon, the losing of the rings, the ditching of the heels, the intergenerational whirl around the dancefloor. Alex Fegan (Older than Ireland, The Irish Pub) captures all that is familiar but also conveys the momentousness of the day from the pre-wedding nerves, to the tenderness of the first kiss, from the affectionate humour of the speeches to the melancholy moments as absent friends are remembered. The Irish Wedding presents a pleasingly diverse community of brides and grooms in this warm-hearted and thoroughly entertaining survey of Irish nuptial activity.
