Here's our pick of the most heart-warming, laugh-out-loud romantic comedies to get swept up in this winter...

Serendipity

By definition, Serendipity is a fortunate accident. This is the case for Jonathan (John Cusack) and Sara (Kate Beckinsale), who meet unexpectedly and share an unforgettable night together.

Ten years later, both engaged to others, they embark on a crazy mission to find each other again, believing they could be each other's one true love.

My Best Friend's Wedding

The Julia Roberts classic My Best Friend's Wedding pits the iconic star against an up-and-coming Cameron Diaz in a fight for one man's heart.

While it may appear to be a case of girl-on-girl crime, this movie is more about realising that winning won't necessarily solve your problems... and that men have unexpected tastes in dessert.
