Let’s be real—weddings can feel a little too serious sometimes. Between the emotional vows and formal speeches, everyone’s walking on eggshells trying not to mess up their moment in the spotlight. But here’s the thing: laughter is what people actually remember. If you’re stressing about your toast falling flat or wondering how to make your wedding feel more “you,” wedding puns might just be your secret ingredient. They’re cheesy, sure, but they work.
