This week on Every Rom Com, we’re flashing back to the 80’s via the 90’s, for the Adam Sandler/Drew Barrymore hit, “The Wedding Singer.” We’ll lean into 80’s nostalgia with our choices for the movie’s best music and fashion. We’ll look into the real life work of a wedding singer. And we’ll celebrate the late Alexis Arquette, whose portrayal of George added so much to the film.
