* In ''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}'' strip "[[https://xkcd.com/2826/ Gold]]", as Cueball muses on how it makes sense that wedding rings are made of gold because gold is produced by neutron stars merging together, Megan chimes in with an idea for a "binary neutron star merger" wedding theme. Cueball then throws an idea for [[LudicrousSpeed relativistically ejected bouquets]] which guests must ''not'' catch (as a bouquet travelling at such speeds [[https://what-if.xkcd.com/1 would basically]] be a WeaponOfMassDestruction). According to the AltText, such a wedding would also have a spectroscopist instead of a photographer.

The bride, groom and guests are all dressed as zombies, the rings are on fake fingers on a bloodied-white pillow, the ceremony is held at a graveyard and the episode is [[HalloweenEpisode set on Halloween]]. Because of this, the guests are undeterred when the groom is shot by the episode's killer despite the bride's protests before she is shot dead herself.
* One episode of ''Series/{{CSI}}'' had an ''Literature/AliceInWonderland''-themed wedding get crashed by robbers who shot and killed the groom. [[spoiler:Accidentally, as it turned out. The robbers' guns were loaded with blanks but [[RecklessGunUsage the killer put the barrel to a button on the groom's hat and the blast propelled it into his skull]].]]
* The cast of ''Series/{{Tanked}}'' once constructed a slot-machine aquarium for a couple's gambling themed wedding [[note]](actually a renewal of vows)[[/note]] in Las Vegas.
* On ''Series/{{Friends}}'', when Monica contemplates marrying millionaire Pete Rachel has a suggestion...
-->''Mon, you definitely have to make it a theme wedding, and the theme could be, "Look how much money we've got!" You know, I mean you could put... you could put money in the invitations! You could have, like, little money place settings. And, uh, you could start with a money salad! I mean it'd be dry, but people will like it.''
* An episode of ''Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir'' had Will and Lisa eloping in Vegas to a chapel that specializes in theme weddings. They've chosen a Film/{{Shaft}} themed wedding with the real Issac Hayes as a pastor. When the couple decides to break it off, [[YourCostumeNeedsWork Will dismissed Hayes as an impersonator]].
* The higher-ups of the ''Series/TheGoodPlace'''s CelestialBureaucracy seem to have a distaste for this trope. A couple gets negative points for having a themed wedding, and even more if it's ''Literature/LordOfTheRings''-themed.
