Beth Steel’s phenomenal family drama all takes place at a wedding. Sylvia is getting married to Marek, but when her sprawling working-class clan is brought together, tensions between them rise to the surface – including wider social concerns triggered by her choice of groom, a Polish immigrant.

Steel’s beautifully detailed and frequently laugh-out-loud play makes use of every part of the big day, from the girls getting ready together, trading barbs over hair straighteners and buck’s fizz, to the unforgettable wedding dinner. It’s a treat to have the National Theatre’s Olivier-nominated hit in the West End to keep the party going.

This classic musical, set in 1905, is all about courtship and marriage – and of course tradition! Tevye the milkman has very fixed views on the kind of man his daughters should wed (as does the village’s resident matchmaker), but they each challenge his ideas in different ways when they fall in love.

The exquisitely poignant midpoint of the show centres on a wedding, featuring the number “Sunrise, Sunset”, and is followed by the iconic bottle dance. Jordan Fein’s electrifying revival, which now plays at the Barbican following a run at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre last year, finds fresh resonance in this heartfelt work.

They clearly can’t get enough of weddings in Regent’s Park (well, it is an idyllic venue for them!). The opening show of this year’s season, the fabulously corny American musical Shucked, also hinges on a trip down the aisle – in fact, it’s the very opening scene of the show, as Maizy prepares to tie the knot with Beau.

But when the town’s corn starts inexplicably dying, Maizy ventures into the outside world to find a solution, to Beau’s consternation. She also finds a potential new love interest, charlatan Gordy, although Maizy’s cousin Lulu isn’t buying his act. It’s a brilliantly tangled tale, told with knockout country-style songs like “Somebody Will” and “Independently Owned”.

Marriage fuels most of the action in Shakespeare’s gorgeous romp of a comedy. The story begins with Theseus discussing his upcoming wedding to Hippolyta, before we’re introduced to the tangled quartet of lovers, warring fairy spouses Oberon and Titania, and the mechanicals whose hilariously terrible play is meant to celebrate Theseus’s nuptials.

The Bridge Theatre’s thrilling, immersive staging invites the whole audience to join the wedding party, with performers flying overhead via acrobatic aerial silks, and there are standing tickets if you want to be really in the thick of the magical action. JJ Feild, Susannah Fielding and Emmanuel Akwafo lead this year’s production.

Another union sparks all kinds of wonderful ABBA-scored drama and hijinks in the West End’s blissful wedding musical set on a fantasy Greek island. Bride-to-be Sophie really wants her dad to walk her down the aisle, so she invites along three possible candidates – to mum Donna’s utter horror.

As the big day approaches, Donna reckons with her past and Sophie figures out her future, leading to a very happy, but surprising, climactic “I do”. It’s buoyed by songs that are staples of any good wedding disco, like “Dancing Queen”, “Super Trouper”, “Lay All Your Love on Me” and “Thank You for the Music”.

There is both joy and heartbreak at the memorable wedding in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s sensational hip-hop musical Hamilton. Our titular hero plans to marry a wealthy Schuyler sister – but which one? Eliza falls in love with him, as she recounts in the sweet R&B track “Helpless”, but we soon discover that there’s another side to the story.

In the jaw-dropping number “Satisfied”, Eliza’s sister Angelica begins a wedding toast to the happy couple, then rewinds the action to show us the courtship from her perspective – and confesses her own feelings for Hamilton. It’s an extraordinary moment of theatre, setting up a history-making love triangle.
