The premise

An overenthusiastic photographer wins her younger sister an all-expenses-paid wedding, which includes a trip to Beverly Hills to plan, and is surprised to learn that her ex-boyfriend is the best man and will be joining them.

How unusual is it?

Middle of the road, with a twist — a second-chance romance keeps it from being totally by-the-book.

Full story (spoilers)
The film opens in Hughes, Oregon, where Molly, a wedding photographer, documents the proposal of her sister Sophia to her childhood sweetheart, Jordan. Molly, who promised her late mother she would look after Sophia, enters the couple into a 'Beverly Hills Wedding' sweepstakes hosted by celebrity planner Terrence Roquefort. To everyone's surprise, they win, but the catch is the wedding must happen on Valentine's Day, just six weeks away. The group, including Jordan's brother and Molly's ex-boyfriend Cory, travels to Beverly Hills. Molly and Cory have a tense history; they dated for years until Cory left to pursue a life at sea without asking Molly to join him. In Beverly Hills, Terrence and his assistant Kendall push a high-glamour, social-media-focused vision that includes seaweed bonbons, six-tier cakes, and opulent ballrooms, which makes the down-to-earth Jordan and Sophia uncomfortable. Molly initially pushes for the glamour, hoping it will help her own photography career, especially after Terrence offers to show her portfolio to a gallery curator. However, tensions peak during a disastrous food tasting and dance lesson where Jordan and Sophia feel their identity is being erased. Cory confronts Molly, accusing her of managing Sophia's life instead of following her own dreams. Realizing she has lost sight of what her sister truly wants, Molly helps cancel the Beverly Hills event. Terrence, moved by the couple's genuine love and Molly's heartfelt essay, decides to bring 'Beverly Hills to Oregon,' planning a beautiful, personalized wedding at the family farm. During the ceremony, Cory reads Molly's essay about 'perfect love' being real and unconditional. Molly and Cory reconcile, deciding to pursue their dreams together, with Molly finally heading toward a gallery show in L.A. and Cory supporting her.
