My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding is an American reality television series that debuted on the TLC in April 2012. It claims to revolve around the marriage customs of Romani-Americans ("Gypsies") – allegedly members of Romanichal clans, although some are actually of Irish Traveller descent.[1][2] It is a spin-off of Britain's Channel 4 series Big Fat Gypsy Weddings.[3][4]

It was announced in June 2012 that the series had been renewed for a second season, which debuted March 24, 2013. Season 4 premiered April 4, 2014 and Season 5 in February 2015.[5][6]

My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding has led to a spinoff series: Gypsy Sisters (2013).
