About this product
Product Information
This book interrogates the hyper-visibility and stubborn endurance of the wedding spectacle across media and culture in the current climate. The wide-ranging chapters consider why the symbolic power of weddings is intensifying at a time when marriage as an institution appears to be in decline - and they offer new insights into the shifting and complex gender politics of contemporary culture. The collection is a feminist project but does not straight-forwardly renounce the wedding spectacle. Rather, the diverse contributions offer close analyses of the myriad forms and practices of the wedding spectacle, from reality television and cinematic film to wedding videography and bridal boutiques. Drawing on feminist and queer theory, the chapters illuminate the paradoxes, contradictions, disappointments, cruelties and pleasures that are intimately bound up with the wedding spectacle. Written by leading and emerging feminist scholars, the chapters range across different national and cultural contexts to explore how the gender politics of weddings are changing and adapting to a new cultural and social landscape. This in-depth analysis of the wedding spectacle will appeal to academics and researchers in the fields of gender and mass media, cultural studies, feminist studies, and intercultural communication.

This fascinating collection significantly updates and expands our understanding of the popular cultures of weddings. Analyzing the wedding as a premiere site of spectacle, aspiration and the staging of social intimacy, it also unpacks its digitalization, globalization and complex affects and calls our attention to what we might think of as the growing distance between weddings and marriage. Diane Negra, Professor of Film Studies and Screen Culture, University College Dublin Grounded in a critique of the class hierarchies and rampant inequalities of racialised heteropatriarchy, this book resists a straightforward dismissal of the mediated wedding spectacle. Instead, the plural feminist perspectives offer (com)passionate explorations of sites of resistance and ambivalence. They identify themes of identity, power, desire, consent, affect, camp, generation, while interrogating the mediated production of intimacies, connectivities and conflicts.
