Christmas Wedding Planner
This charming tale centers around Kelsey, a wedding planner who has never planned a wedding. She is planning her cousins wedding, and wants it to go well because its her first. Kind of like how the first wedding I officiated was my dear friends. That is where the similarities end.
Day of the engagement party she meets her cousins ex Connor, who in all manner of Christmas movies is emotionally unavailable and kind of rude. He is a co-owner of a restaurant with Joey Fatone . Connor is also a private investigator who has been hired to look into cousins fiancé because he is shady. He wants her to say Bye Bye Bye to him. See what I did there?
Kelsey agrees to work with the ex to figure out if fiancé is shady after she sees fiancé possibly flirting with someone else. They follow fiancé around, don’t find anything.
Meanwhile Kelsey sends a lot of text messages to her deceased mother. It is a weird addition that doesn’t really add anything to the plot.
Aunt tells Kelsey that Connor is up to no good, and that deceased uncle paid him off to break up with the cousin years ago. Kelsey ditches Connor, wedding starts. They do the “Does anyone object” line which NO ONE EVER DOES ANYMORE, and of course here comes Connor. Who does he have with him? Fiance’s maid who is pregnant with his child! There is a plot twist that is unimaginative as hell.
Cousin is sad, wedding is called off. Connor tells Kelsey he loves her. Then because the wedding is all set up he proposes. She crinkle nose smiles. Guess what they get married. Talk about a quick courtship. Cousin then becomes her maid of honor. Talk about compartmentalizing. The end.
B- only because bridesmaids were slightly humorous. Or maybe I am getting more generous as time goes on.
Holiday movies so white scale- 9
New scale- Predictability from 1-10 with 10 being SOOOOOO predictable. 9
