Margaret and John have just come back from their wonderful honeymoon. In their early fifties, Margaret finally has a loving husband in John. The first husband, it seems, left her in the lurch with four children. However, placid is not what their life is going to be together. This is, in part, because Margaret's children's lives are in flux. One daughter is unmarried, jobless and pregnant, another daughter has two divorces under her belt and doesn't trust men. The sons, too, are mixed-up, with one moving back home with his two daughters and the other one returning to mother's house, too, when he loses his ritzy job. If that is not enough, Margaret finds out soon that her indigestion is really pregnancy! John is so spooked by everything that he moves out. Will happiness elude this family, especially the mother who loves her children, even the little one inside her? This is a feel-good family story, where each member endures and rises above personal problems. McClanahan is so beautiful, inwardly and outwardly, as the mother who tries her best to keep her folks happy and harmonious. The supporting players are all quite engaging and attractive, too. All of the other elements, from setting to costumes and more, are fine. Although it may not be the most incisive look at a woman who finds herself pregnant in middle age, it has its moments, also. Everyone who loves stories which deal with the ups and downs of everyday family life and who like romance, tears, and happy endings, will find this film as welcome as sunshine.

I found the first movie in this series quite charming, so Baby of the Bride was a bit of a letdown. I thought more could have been done with the baby aspect of it. It would have been a more interesting film if they'd had the babies sooner, and then it was watching them cope with that, as opposed to the actual bulk of the film which was side plots and squabbling.

There were still some good moments, don't get me wrong, but the plot felt muddled, and the cast changes since the first film didn't help.

My concern now, after this lacklustre entry, is managing to convince my girlfriend to finish the trilogy with me!

So cute, I wonder if there is a movie before this though because I was a bit confused

While it is certainly no cinematic masterpiece, "Baby of the Bride" is probably my favorite of the three movies in the "...Of the Bride" trilogy. It's your typical made-for-television movie but it really is quite cute and entertaining. I find "Baby of the Bride" to be very much like the sequel to "Father of the Bride" in terms of the main storyline (mother and daughter pregnant at the same time) but that is where the differences end. As usual, Rue McClanahan gives an excellent performance and is able to create compassion for her character.

This has to be on the list of one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The idea of a 53 year old being pregnant could have been explored from the medical side as well as society. However it was glossed over to a smooth pregnancy, healthy baby and merely an announcement at the dinner table. The plot is unrealistic, to the point of absurdity. I don't know how this movie has a score of 6.

Oh and nothing happens. The movie is a snooze.
