This music video is a performative video because throughout the video we see the musicians and other characters performing roles that relate to the song.

Mise en Scene

This video has various of different locations in order to fulfill the storyline of the song. The scene that mostly fulfilled the title of the song is the scene of a couple getting married. The character were in traditional attire such as the woman wearing a white dress as it states in the lyrics of the song, and the man wearing a black and white suit. This scene characters are used to convey the theme of the song. However, we see the music group in other parts of the song which they are singing to the camera in matching attire. These are the performative scenes of the video.
