The Wedding was released on 8 October 2021. It performed well on its opening weekend, selling 139,536 tickets and per Film New Europe had the "best opening for a local production in 2021." Reception 

In a praising critique of the film published by Kino Mania, Giuseppe Sedia noted that Smarzowski "invited to banquet on the big screen the same old sampler of vulgarians, bribable clerics and small town grandstanders. Subtleties aside, the Pieter Bruegel of Polish cinema offers once more a caricatural but clear-cut depiction of provincial Poland, dissolute, immobile and greedy as usual". Screen Anarchy reviewed the film, writing "For the recurring didacticism and programmatic disruption of nationalistic self-image, The Wedding Day is an uncomfortable history revision delivered in a masterful and provocative high-wire act of genre, commercial and arthouse filmmaking of intense social relevance."
