The premise

Straight-laced Jordan (Martin) is about to marry her perfect match, clean-cut ambitious attorney Peter (Snedeker). Before she heads down the aisle, she and her best friends Claire (Adrienne Frantz) and Jessica (Daphnee Duplaix) head to Vegas for a bachelorette party. Determined to get Jordan to loosen up, Claire steers the girls to the hottest nightclub for a few drinks and some fun, because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? But when Jordan wakes up the next morning unable to recall the night before, she panics when she finds herself in movie star Matt's (Ethan Erickson) hotel suite with a gigantic diamond on her finger and a marriage certificate lying nearby. Before she can have the marriage annulled and put this nightmare behind her, the impromptu wedding explodes into a publicity stunt fueled by Matt's manager Eric (Bruce Nozick) to promote his latest movie. With her wedding day approaching, Jordan becomes more confused than ever when she starts to fall in love with the movie star she's married to instead of the fiancé she thought was her perfect match.

How unusual is it?

Honestly? Not very — and that's the charm. It plays the hits, which is exactly the point for a cozy night in.

Full story (spoilers)
Jordan Grady is a meticulous real estate agent who lives her life by the book, much to the approval of her rigid fiancé, Peter Drake. Before their upcoming wedding, Jordan's friends convince her to have a bachelorette weekend in Las Vegas. Despite her promise to Peter that she won't drink or engage in 'shenanigans,' a mix-up at the bar results in Jordan consuming a rum-filled drink she believed was virgin. The next morning, she wakes up in a hotel suite to discover she has married Hollywood superstar Matt Swift. Matt, who was looking to blow off steam from his stressful career, explains they had a wild night involving karaoke and winning $6,000 at craps. Panicked, Jordan returns home and tries to keep the marriage a secret while waiting for Matt's lawyers to process a quick annulment. However, a tabloid photo of the wedding leaks, causing a media frenzy that humiliates Peter and threatens Jordan's career. Matt's manager, Eric Spencer, realizes the scandal is boosting interest in Matt's new film, 'Rookie Cop,' and secretly instructs the lawyers to delay the annulment. Jordan eventually confronts Matt at his movie premiere, and the two begin to spend time together. Matt finds Jordan's honesty refreshing compared to the 'yes-men' in Hollywood, while Jordan begins to realize that Peter is emotionally distant and controlling. After Peter breaks up with Jordan and demands his grandmother's ring back, Jordan finds herself truly falling for Matt. They spend a weekend at Matt's parents' house in San Diego, where Jordan learns to swim and they bond over air hockey. The relationship hits a snag when Eric manipulates Jordan into believing Matt used the marriage purely for PR. Heartbroken, Jordan cuts ties with Matt. Realizing his manager's betrayal, Matt fires Eric and goes on a national talk show to publicly apologize to Jordan and declare his true feelings. In the climax, Jordan rushes to the movie studio in her pajamas, evades security in a comedic golf-cart chase, and reunites with Matt. They decide to start their relationship 'backwards,' dating properly now that their accidental marriage has been annulled.
