Wedding Crashers

Summary

John (Owen Wilson) and Jeremy (Vince Vaughn) are best friends and work together in divorce mediation. The two frequently "crash” wedding parties to meet women. They attend these weddings as uninvited guests. Jeremy was taught the rules of real wedding crashing by the “creator,” Chazz (Will Ferrell) Everything comes to an end when John falls in love with Claire, (Rcahel McAdams), a bridesmaid and the daughter of US Treasury Secretary (Christopher Walken). Jeremy ends up having sex with Gloria, who is the youngest daughter of Secretary Cleary. Gloria surprises Jeremy by telling him she is a virgin. Jeremy flips out and commands John to leave the wedding immediately. Things don’t go Jeremy’s way when Gloria pleads her father to invite John and Jeremy back to their home after the wedding, and he says yes. John later discovers that Claire has a boyfriend, but that doesn’t stop him from pursuing her. At the house the whole gang plays a game of “touch” football, in which Jeremy gets attacked again and again by Claire’s boyfriend, Sack. The next day Jeremy is ready to leave immediately, but John convinces Jeremy to stick around, so John can keep trying to win Claire’s heart. Jeremy agrees, and later that day, Claire and John go on a bike ride and kiss at the beach. Claire now realizes that she doesn't love Sack. Later that evening, Sack announces he and Claire’s engagement plans. Then, Sack secretly get in touch with one of his buddies, and asks his friend to find out the dirt on John and Jeremy. Sack exposes the truth to the family, and John and Jeremy are forced to leave. Once they reach home, John devises a plan to see Claire again at her and Sack's engagement party, but he gets refused at the entrance, and then beaten up by Sack. Sack tells John that he ever tries to get close to Claire again, he will kill him! John, angry that Jeremy didn’t go with him to the party, heads to Jeremy's place and catches him having sex with Gloria. John gets mad and puts an end to their friendship. John begins to crash weddings alone, and ends up embarrassing himself in more ways than one at all the events. Later, Jeremy decides to go see John and tell him that he is going to marry Gloria. Jeremy urges John to go but John rejects the offer, and goes with Chazz, instead, to crash a funeral. At the funeral, John realizes that Chazz is just cries for attention. John then decides to leave and go to Jeremy’s wedding. He shows up late to the wedding, but is confronted by the Secret Service, but Jeremy still insists that he act as best man. He conveniently ends up standing across the aisle from Claire, and takes his last chance to explain himself to her. She accepts his apology and breaks her engagement with Sack. He finally gains the opportunity to explain himself to her, who accepts his apology and breaks her engagement with Sack. John and Jeremy become “crashers” again and the wedding continues as planned. The final scene finds both couples on the way to crashing another wedding together.

Quotes

How many times you gonna do this bullshit? Rule number 32: never commit to a relative unless you're absolutely positive they have a pulse. –Jeremy Grey

Janice, I apologize to you if I don't seem real eager to jump into a forced awkward intimate situation that people like to call dating. I don't like the feeling. You're sitting there, you're wondering do I have food on my face, am I eating, am I talking too much, are they talking enough, am I interested, I'm not really interested, should I play like I'm interested but I'm not that interested but I think she might be interested but do I want to be interested but now she's not interested? So all of the sudden I'm getting, I'm starting to get interested... And when am I supposed to kiss her? Do I have to wait for the door cause then it's awkward, it's like well goodnight. Do you do like that ass-out hug? Where you like, you hug each other like this and your ass sticks out cause you're trying not to get too close or do you just go right in and kiss them on the lips or don't kiss them at all? It's very difficult trying to read the situation. And all the while you're just really wondering are we gonna get hopped up enough to make some bad decisions? Perhaps play a little game called "just the tip". Just for a second, just to see how it feels. Or, ouch, ouch you're on my hair.
