A wedding is when two people get married. Traditionally, this ceremony takes place between a man and a woman, but modern shifts in social practices have seen an increase in same-sex marriages, which has been met both with praise and criticism. Wedding ceremonies are typically rooted in religious practices, though there are also non-religious weddings as well. The observances of a religious wedding are different depending upon the religion of the people involved. A wedding is generally officiated by an ordained representative of the couple's faith, be it a priest, a rabbi or what have you.
In Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala eloped in a secret wedding ceremony held on Padmé's homeworld of Naboo. The marriage had to be kept a secret since Anakin was a Jedi and the forging of personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, was strictly prohibited.
Weddings may sometimes end in disaster. This actually happens quite often, usually due to unhappy relatives or drunken guests. Every now again, though this is rare - an alligator might show up and begin eating the wedding guests. It sounds crazy, but it does happen. Back in 1980, the Slade family were having a big outdoor wedding reception when a giant mutated alligator crashed the party and began eating guests. Ironically, the Slade family were actually responsible for the creature obtaining its gregarious size.
