The Perfect Bride: Wedding Bells
Film sourceNick and Molly are engaged and have six weeks to arrange their wedding. A business offer from Steven, the man who previously left Molly at the altar, adds an unwelcome complication to their plans.
About the series
Pascale Hutton plays Molly, who helps women prepare for their weddings through a bridal fitness programme. Meeting Nick puts her work in an awkward position because he is already engaged to a client. Kavan Smith returns as Nick in Wedding Bells, when the couple must plan their own celebration. The second film moves Molly from advising brides to making those decisions herself.
What to expect
Molly's work makes wedding preparations part of both films. In the first, professional boundaries complicate her attraction to Nick. In the second, a short planning window and the return of someone from her past crowd the engagement. The same lead actors carry the move from a new attraction to a shared wedding.
