Plot:
|
This lighthearted romantic comedy in the tradition
of Runaway Bride (1999) casts Jennifer Lopez in
the Julia Roberts mold. Lopez stars as Mary Fiore,
an ambitious and successful San Francisco wedding
planner who works only for the most wealthy and
exclusive clients but who is also a perpetual
single. Pressured by her father Sal (Alex Rocco)
to settle down, Mary is saved from a collision
with an out of control dumpster by Steve Edison
(Matthew McConaughey), a successful pediatrician.
After sharing a romantic evening and a dance together,
Mary learns that Eddie is engaged and that she’s
being hired by his controlling fiancée Fran (Bridgette
Wilson-Sampras), an Internet tycoon, to plan their
lavish wedding. The directorial debut of former
choreographer Adam Shankman, The Wedding Planner
costars Kevin Pollak, Judy Greer, and Kathy Najimy.
