(That ecstatic-bride logo for the Mamma Mia! stage show, on display outside theatres from Antwerp to Las Vegas, owes a great deal to the Muriel's Wedding poster.) Muriel's Wedding was however conceived during the affectionate-irony phase of Abba's reputation, when it was entirely appropriate that a nerd should be obsessed by the band, but that the nerd should be gloriously empowered and transformed by the sheer zinging power of Abba's tunes.On the fictional Greek island of Kalokairi, 20-year-old Sophie is preparing to marry her fiancé, Sky. She wants her father to walk her down the aisle (" Prologue") but does not know who he is. Sophie discovers her mother's old diary and finds entries that describe intimate dates with three men; Sam Carmichael, Bill Austin and Harry Bright (" Honey, Honey"). Sophie believes one of these men is her father and, three months before her nuptials, sends each an invitation to her wedding, writing in her mother's name, Donna, without letting her unsuspecting mother know. All three men accept. Cinemascore". Cinemascore. 2008. Archived from the original on January 16, 2023 . Retrieved January 15, 2020. Golden Reel Award Nominees: Feature Films".

Harry offers to Donna to pay for the wedding, and they reminisce about their fling (" Our Last Summer"). Sophie arrives and Donna helps her get dressed. She can not believe her daughter is going to be a bride (" Slipping Through My Fingers"). Donna admits that her own mother disowned her when she learned that she was pregnant. They reconcile and Sophie asks her mother if she will walk her down the aisle. Sam arrives and tries to speak to Donna again, but she does not want to see him, and asks him to leave. He refuses, and a bitter confrontation ensues. Donna tells Sam that he broke her heart, presumably when she found out he was engaged (" The Winner Takes It All"). It emerges that the two still love each other dearly, albeit against Donna's better judgment.
