I really enjoyed this movie. I hadn't heard of it until I came across it on demand tonight. Anything with "wedding" in the title catches my eye. The movie takes place on Dolly's wedding day in winter. She is torn between her fiancé of 2 months, and her friend turned lover that she spent an exciting summer with. Dolly spends the first half of the movie in her bedroom getting ready, where many different characters visit her and you learn about her relationship with each of them. From quirky family members, an opinionated mother, to funny cousins and a loving sister they all fit together well.
I loved all the characters and how they developed through others conversations. My favorite part was the flashbacks of the summer that Dolly and Joseph shared together, it was so innocent and light. Kitty (Dolly's sister)supported all the characters and she lightened the more serious conversations.
I thought the character development was strong, and there was a balance of strange, goofy and entertaining family members. Even though you only learn a little about each wedding guest and couple, you get a sense how each relationship is different.
I absolutely loved the setting (the entire movie takes place at Dolly's home) and of course the wardrobe of the 1930's. Dolly's wedding dress was stunning.
I highly recommend this movie.
