=== Tropes include: ===
 
* [[Anti -Love Song]] / [[Break Up Song]]: "Love Stinks", which is, believe it or not, a real song.
* [[As Himself]]: Billy Idol
* [[Bitter Wedding Speech]]: Twice. Before Linda leaves Robbie, the best man at one of the weddings he performs at gives one; Robbie does his best to smooth it over. ''After'' Linda leaves Robbie, he gives one himself at another performance.
Line 43:
* [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold]]: Sammy.
* [[Love Epiphany]]
* [["Mister Sandman" Sequence]]: How the Film opens.
* [[The Musical]]
* [[Musical World Hypotheses]]: Diegetic type.
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Jon Lovitz as another wedding singer, who revels in his new business after Robbie quits.
* [[Period Piece]]: A rather unusual one. There's really no reason why this story had to be set in 1985, thirteen years before the film's release, but it sure gives a ton of great joke opportunities.
* [[Piss -Take Rap]]: The Rappin' Granny.
* [[Playing Against Type]]: Up to ''The Wedding Singer'', most of Sandler's roles had been [[Man Child|immature guys]] [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|who eventually revealed a more sensitive side]]. This was the first role of his to be a fairly straightforward nice-guy-with-underdog-tones, and that eventually became his new type.
