Maroon 5 Crashes Real Weddings, Stages Surprise Performance for the Newlyweds
Last December 6, 2014, Maroon 5 crashed several weddings in Los Angeles and captured it in a surprise-packed music video of their new single “Sugar“. At the beginning of the video, Maroon 5’s front man Adam Levine said, “We’re gonna drive across LA and hit every wedding we possibly can.”
At every wedding that they crashed, Maroon 5 hid behind a white sheet, which appears to be a makeshift curtain. The sheet is dropped at the cue of the band’s performance. Every wedding crash they made resulted to different reactions, but almost all were ecstatic that the attendees along with the couple hit the dance floor while the band is singing. One bride was so ecstatic she even muttered, “What the f**k?!”
Now, we wonder if the band really surprised the newlyweds and the audience, or if it was all just a set-up.
According to ET Online, Maroon 5’s rep told them, “Only the grooms knew in each case. However they disclosed it to their bride and the wedding party, we’re not sure, but they all wanted it to be as equally a surprise as we did. They had stages set up for their actual wedding band already. All we did was some simple continuity changes to match each one as best we could.”
It was also mentioned that some shots were done separate like Levine’s solo, the rep added, “had to be shot separately from the real weddings due to time and space constraints that were given.”
David Dobkin, the director of the movie Wedding Crashes, directed the said music video. Watch it below.
What do you think?
If you get wed, do you want Maroon 5 to crash it too?
