| Lohengrin and Mendelssohn | comment |
The two essential Standard Snippet wedding marches derive their music from: The bridal chorus that opens Act III of Richard Wagner's 1850 opera Lohengrin. The German words begin "Treulich geführt ziehet dahin," but most English speakers know it as "Here Comes the Bride." The prelude to Act V of A Midsummer Night's Dream from Felix Mendelssohn's incidental music to an 1842 production of William Shakespeare's play (Op. 61). Generally used as a recessional. These two pieces, commonly referred to as "Lohengrin" and "Mendelssohn," are often played at Real Life and fictional weddings, even if those weddings are in films set before the pieces were actually composed. The combination may have been popularized by its use at the wedding of Princess Victoria and Crown Prince Friedrich of Prussia (later Kaiser Friedrich III) in 1858. Some churches discourage the use of this and other secular music at weddings held in their facilities. Some churches and musicians also discourage their use because of the context: Elsa's wedding in Lohengrin is anything but happy, the marriage wasn't consummated, and by the end her beloved departs and her brother has been turned into a swan; and A Midsummer Night's Dream is not the most... shall we say, "monogamous" of Shakespeare's plays. And some organists are just bloody sick of them. The former is also generally not used at Jewish weddings, due to Wagner's anti-Semitism (Mendelssohn was a Lutheran with Jewish ancestry, by the way, and was disliked by Wagner). If it's not one of these pieces of Classical Music being played at the wedding, odds are pretty good it's either Pachelbel's Canon, the Prince of Denmark's March by Jeremiah Clarke (sometimes incorrectly called the Trumpet Voluntary,note which is the composition's type, like a symphony, concerto, or sonata and notable for being used at Princess Diana's wedding), Handel's Water Music (specifically the second movement), "Sheep May Safely Graze" from Johann Sebastian Bach's "Hunting Cantata", or "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring", also by Bach. |

Our Town plays this entirely straight for the wedding scene, though it's implied that these two pieces, along with Handel's Largo and a few hymns, are all the town organist may know, since "there isn't much culture" in Grover's Corners. | |

An episode of The Simpsons which parodies The Graduate ends with Grandpa Simpson and Mrs. Bouvier running out of her wedding to Mr. Burns while Mendelssohn plays in the background. And in another episode ("I Married Marge"), in the flashback story, Homer has a wedding with the pregnant Marge in a cheap chapel, and as they walk to the chapel, one man is seen playing Lohengrin on a Casio electronic keyboard. In "Thursdays with Abie", an aspiring author plans on murdering Grampa to end his book about him with a sad death, and he makes up his own sinister lyrics to Lohengrin as he advances toward a sleeping Grampa with a Vorpal Pillow. |

Arthur: Lohengrin is featured several times in the episode "D.W. Thinks Big", it being a Wedding Episode for Arthur's Aunt Lucy. Even outside the actual wedding, it is used as background music several times throughout the episode, Arthur's mom plays it on the piano, and D.W. humming it is a Running Gag. In "D.W. Unties the Knot", Lohengrin is played at D.W. and her classmate James' wedding reception. (Don't ask why two four-year-olds are getting married...) |

In Thumbelina (1994), each verse of the song "Marry the Mole" starts with the same four notes as Lohengrin, and the first verse opens with the words "'Here Comes the Bride' is a lovely little ditty." Later, an organ rendition of Lohengrin plays as Thumbelina walks reluctantly down the aisle at her wedding to Mr. Mole (before she realizes her mistake and becomes a Runaway Bride). | |

In "Rabbit of Seville", after a mutual escalation where each side points bigger and bigger guns at the other, Bugs instead offers Elmer flowers and chocolates, which causes him to reappear wearing a wedding dress. After Bugs rushes through a ceremony with himself as Justice of the Peace, Bugs carries his new "bride" to the threshold to the tune of the Mendelssohn Recessional. (Whereupon he drops Elmer off a very high ledge into a prop wedding cake reading "The Marriage of Figaro".) | |

In Matrimelee, the last Power Instinct game to be released in English, the reward for defeating Princess Sissy and winning the tournament is to marry her. Appropriately enough, a remix of Lohengrin plays when she appears, and a remix of Mendelssohn plays for the fight. | |

Hamilton: Lohengrin plays at the end of Helpless to signify Alexander and Eliza's wedding. This is a case where the song is used for a time period far before it was actually composed (1780), but Hamilton in general is a very, very deliberate Anachronism Stew (the rest of the song is R&B, after all) so it's not too jarring. | |

Spaceballs uses the Lohengrin piece in the wedding scene as King Roland leads Princess Vespa to the altar. The organist breaks off when Vespa stops to ask if she has to go through with marrying Prince Valium. And then she blows past the altar, down the ramp, and out of the church. | |

Friends: In one episode Joey greets Ross at the coffee shop by humming a few bars of Lohengrin as Ross has just got engaged to Emily. Phoebe mistakes it for the Olympic anthem. During a trip to Las Vegas, Chandler and Monica decide to get married at a chapel. As they're sitting in the waiting room Chandler hums what he thinks is the wedding march, only for Monica to tell him it's actually Pomp and Circumstance a.k.a. "The Graduation Song". He's immediately shown up when the actual wedding march starts playing from inside the chapel as Ross and Rachel exit after drunkenly getting married. |
