The bells are ringing, the birds are singing, the bridesmaids are flinging off their heels to hit the dance floor, etc. In short, wedding season is well and truly upon us. Every year right around this time, as spring is springing its way from May into June, hotel ballrooms and historic mansions and well-manicured gardens are filling up with freshly legal couples and their nearest and dearest as they celebrate love. So why not join the festivities and get in on the nuptial spirit from home? 

Regardless of your level of involvement in this year’s wedding season, there’s a stream you can commit to for the weekend. Cue up a series dramatizing the intrigue of courtship, a movie that lingers in the liminal space of engagement, or a reality show that takes couples all the way to the altar. And if that’s not enough to feed your wedding fever, there’s more to come: Save the date for July 11, when Tyler Perry’s Madea cinematic universe expands with its own anarchic trip down the aisle, Madea’s Destination Wedding. 

But first, what’s new on Netflix?

A wild ride. The new docuseries F1: The Academy, produced by Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine, follows a group of the most promising female drivers in the world as they build their careers from the tracks of F1 Academy, run by former professional driver Susie Wolff. Not ready to step on the gas? Try stepping into Dept. Q: The new crime thriller series from The Queen’s Gambit creator Scott Frank, based on the book series by Jussi Adler-Olsen, stars Matthew Goode as a haunted Edinburgh detective assigned to lead a new police unit devoted to solving cold cases. Not something you want to investigate? Get all the clues you need in one place by tuning into Netflix Tudum 2025: The Live Event. This Saturday, dozens of Netflix stars will gather in Los Angeles for the ultimate fan experience, hosted by Sofia Carson and featuring live performances by Lady Gaga and Hanumankind — not to mention plenty of updates and exclusive reveals about your favorite shows from the stars themselves. Stream the action live at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET. 

If you have just a night … 

Make it last. There are countless wedding movies that depict a frenzied ride from proposal to honeymoon in the space of a few months or even weeks; in Nicholas Stoller’s 2012 rom-com The Five-Year Engagement, however, postponements pile up instead of decisions and gifts and RSVPs. Jason Segel and Emily Blunt star as a couple who can’t quite make it to marriage, for one reason after another, with Chris Pratt and Alison Brie as their comedic counterparts operating on a much faster timeline. Watch to find out whether an engagement has an expiration date, or if the best things really are worth waiting for. 

If you have a whole day … 

Call in the professionals. For many couples, walking down the aisle is easy — it’s walking down the long path of wedding planning that’s hard. Enter the three experts of Say I Do — Jeremiah Brent for design, Thai Nguyen for fashion, and Gabriele Bertaccini for food — who join forces in each episode of the 2020 wedding planning series (from Queer Eye creator David Collins) to help a deserving couple get the wedding of their dreams. There’s a twist, though: The trio are hired in secret by one half of the couple to coordinate the big day in the span of just a week, as a surprise for the unsuspecting partner. 

If you have the entire weekend … 

Fall for Bridgerton. There’s no better time of year to rewatch (or swoon for the first time over) the steamy romance series, now three seasons deep. Created by Chris Van Dusen, produced by Shondaland, and based on Julia Quinn’s book series of the same name, Bridgerton transports you to an imagined vision of Regency-era London, where the eligible siblings of the noble Bridgerton family navigate the thrilling — but cutthroat — social season, during which everyone’s a competitor and a good marriage is the ultimate prize. If you’re still looking for more after burning through all three seasons, queue up the 2023 spin-off prequel Queen Charlotte, a limited series depicting the Bridgerton monarch’s own youthful romance.

Don’t forget, you have one last chance … 

… to find your way out. Josh Hartnett stars in M. Night Shyamalan’s 2024 thriller Trap as a father who takes his teenage daughter to a pop concert where, he soon discovers, the FBI are closing in on a serial killer. Catch it this week, before the film escapes.
