April Bride (余命1ヶ月の花嫁 Yomei Ikkagetsu no Hanayome?) is a 2009 Japanese film directed by Ryuichi Hiroki.
On April 5, 2007, a couple married in a church. At first glance, it was a typical wedding. The bride, however, was suffering from late-stage breast cancer and had been given only a month to live.
April Bride was number one in the box office in its opening weekend. Mark Schilling of The Japan Times gave the film a mostly positive review.
