Anecdotes

The Wedding Weekend is a 2006 ensemble dramedy independent feature film starring David Harbour, Molly Shannon, Mark Feuerstein, Rosemarie DeWitt, Elizabeth Reaser, Alexander Chaplin, and Reg Rogers. It was written, directed and produced by Bruce Leddy. It features original a cappella versions of songs by Sting, Ben Folds, Phil Collins, Coldplay, and John Mayer performed by college groups including the Tufts Beelzebubs, UVA Academical Village People, MIT Logarhythms, and Oxford Out of the Blue. Classic songs by George Gershwin, Harold Arlen and Irving Berlin were arranged by Sean Altman and Kevin Weist.

Production

The film was cast with New York-based actors by Avy Kaufman. It was shot on location in New York City and East Hampton, New York in August 2005 in only 22 shooting days. The primary location for the weekend setting was a mansion on Gibson Road in Sagaponack, NY which was torn down shortly after production ended. Post production took place in Los Angeles at Chainsaw and Levels Audio.

When the Weinstein Company decided to call their Dixie Chicks documentary Shut Up & Sing, a legal battle ensued and the producers were forced to retitle the film, first as Sing Now or Forever Hold Your Peace (Strand Releasing, 2007), and finally as The Wedding Weekend (First Look, 2008).
