}}'''Wedding Central''' was a short-lived American [[digital cable|digital]] [[cable television]] channel that focused on programming involving [[bride]]s and [[weddings]], which was a [[Spin-off (media)|spin-off]] of the programming which made up much of [[WE tv]]'s schedule at the network's launch on August 18, 2009.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.multichannel.com/article/327866-Cablevision_Launches_Wedding_Central_Channel.php |title=Cablevision Launches Wedding Central Channel|publisher=Multichannel.com |date=August 18, 2009 |accessdate=2010-03-15}}</ref> The network was launched by the [[Rainbow Media]] subsidiary of [[Cablevision]]. Much of the network's programming was taken from previously aired WE tv wedding programming and wedding-related motion pictures, with little new content offered outside of promotions and on-screen quizzes. Also offered solely on Cablevision systems was [[interactive television]] components such as quizzes, polls, voting, and advertising opportunities for national and local wedding retailers.▼

Unlike WE tv, which was a successful spin-off of [[AMC (TV channel)|AMC]] itself in 1997, the network had only limited distribution, only being carried on the systems of Cablevision, a limited amount of [[Time Warner Cable]] systems, and [[Mediacom]]. When Cablevision [[Corporate spin-off|spun off]] Rainbow Media into a separate [[public company]] known as [[AMC Networks]] via an [[initial public offering]] on July 1, 2011, the new company closed Wedding Central on the same day.<ref>[http://www.multichannel.com/article/470699-AMC_Networks_Divorces_Wedding_Central.php AMC Networks Divorces Wedding Central] ''Multichannel News'' July 8, 2011</ref> Wedding-related programming returned to have a focus on WE tv, and Wedding Central's website now redirects to WE tv's weddings section.
