Beverly Hills Wedding

I hate to be negative, because I love hallmark movies! But this movie lacked so much! The characters were annoying! ALL OF THEM ! CRINGE (molly)D' ORSAY AS THE MAID OF HONOR and sister (she was so fake and cheesy.) The groom character was so disconnected, as a actor just seemed off. They Were UNlikable characters. Normally you grow to love and fight for at least one character. I did like the Beverly Hills wedding coordinator lol. Maybe different actor, actresses it could've been a better show. Thankful we will quit seeing ( and hearing ) the commercial for this movie with the Beverly Hills song since it has aired now....the commercial for this movie was annoying af too!

There was a nice beginning with the sweet proposal and setting up the photos to catch the moments. There was a sweet ending, but I won't describe it. The middle was absolutely cringeworthy.

I have loved Brooke D'Orsay since Royal Pains and everything she's done on Hallmark. She should have stayed home for this one. I thought her acting was poor, but maybe that was what the director wanted. Her overreactions to Cory in the early scenes were terrible. She probably got whiplash. The character of Molly was probably what the writers wanted, but between Molly's being pushy and Jordan's negativity it made the middle of the movie drag badly for a Rom/com. Usually the bride is the zilla, but in this case it was the maid of honor. I'm a little surprised the wedding planner isn't a little more sensitive to what the bride and groom want, but maybe not in Beverly Hills.

I prefer this type of movie to give more screen time to the lead couple growing, or renewing, their relationship. There was far too little of that. D'Orsay and Brendan Penny probably could have had chemistry, but between Molly's whiplash and too little positive screen time, I didn't see it.

I did like Emma Johnson.

For once there was a story that didn't have every formula trope known to rom/coms, but having a couple is unavoidable.

It's your normal hallmark movie of ex's meeting again and falling in love. The sister is too pushy about her sisters wedding. In discussing the moms wedding dress that the sister wants to wear, it is described as having a sweetheart neckline and an empire waist. However when the wedding happens, the dress has neither. I know the wedding planner said they could alter the dress but he was talking about the fit and not the design. Come on Hallmark pay attention to the story and make things fit!!

This one got on my nerves. Molly was overbearing, but her sister and the fiancé were stupid. They gripes about so many things they agreed to and knew were going to happen. Like how they reluctantly agreed to be filmed as part of an entire wedding being paid for, but then were upset about the videos being online later on. That's childish and a plot device to put more blame on Molly for taking over. Just irritating, shallow characters and lazy writing all around.

Fight, argue and dislike between the two main characters is the new Hallmark way! Every single movie this season is the same. This film holds true to the new cookie cutter style of movie, except for the last 4 minutes of course. I can't watch many more of these!
