Il velo nuziale - Ritorno a Venezia

I love this series. The stories are realistic, and the three lead characters just happen to be three of my favorites, from all your films. Just wanted to give kudos for adding the "Lily" character. Great choice in the character and the actor. Kacey Rohl fits right in. It would be wonderful if she appears in the next chapter. If not, I believe that if she is available, she would should be considered for future stand alone films, as well. I realize she was playing a role, but she is delightful to watch. Also, the idea of putting these three women together in a series of films was brilliant. Thank you.

A loyal fan, Gary.

Emma and Paolo are my favorite couple from the The Wedding Veil series. I LOVED their first movie when they met and married, and I LOVED this sequel to their story. Their on-screen chemistry is amazing making their love story so engaging to watch. I loved Paolo's commitment to his family and the family business and how the couple dealt with their career issues. I would love to see their storyline continue in future movies!

I also loved the Lily/Matteo storyline. They both were such refreshing characters to watch, especially Lily. Their story was so realistic and also fun to watch.

A great movie that is enjoyable to view again and again!

Enjoyed the whole cast of likable characters led by the accomplished and talented Autumn Reeser who is a pro in her profession. Her range of expressing emotions is astonishing and only seems to grow in each of her roles. The location on Victoria Island, BC is perfect and the cinematography clear, rich, and crisp. This is truly a delightful buddy film where three true friends stick together and move the narrative of the Wedding Veil series. Autumn Reeser and her co-star Paolo Bernadini definitely have chemistry and bring out the modern-day issues of a two-career couple. This time the relationship is a really long-distance romance: Chicago and Italy. Hallmark has grown into producing mature stories and has an excellent repertoire of actors and talent to bring intelligent films to their audiences. Bravo.

This was a wonderful new entry in the Wedding Veil series. In this, the fifth movie, we revisit Autumn Reeser's character Emma and her Italian husband Paolo. They are living in Chicago and Paolo is about to have the opening night of his family's business in America. The veil and the christening gown are on display for opening night when Autumn and her assistant/TA Lily show up. Lily inadvertently touches the veil, while trying to avoid it, at the same time as Paolo's cousin Matteo. Emma is struggling with her five year plan, her annoying boss...and then Paolo's father is hospitalized in Italy. Paolo ends up in Italy while Emma stays in Chicago, this puts a strain on their marriage as Emma never wanted to have a long distance relationship.

Can these two find a compromise and what is this delightful friendship developing between Lily and Matteo?

I am a total sap, but I love these Wedding Veil movies and this is no exception. I love that the heart of these stories is not only romantic love, but the love and friendship of three college friends. These supportive women are what make this series. The cast is wonderful and the new budding romance is great. I can't wait to see the next film and I highly recommend this film and this series to all the romantics out there.

7.8 stars.

This movie is equally as superb as my favorite wedding veil episode, which coincidentally is the other one that features Reeser as the lead. I have to say that the story is quite original, and the adventure is full of interesting and fun happenings. I can feel the actors are invested in this production. Case in point, sometimes you get the inkling nobody cares about a film, but not this time because there is an energy that is ever present in the performances of Reeser, Chabert, and Sweeney, and with the addition of Marks and Rohl as the side romance.

In retrospect the side romance idea should have been explored in more of the Wedding Veil films because it provides another layer of depth and romantic intrigue. It is doubly fun, entertaining, and captivating. There is much more to the story than the same old couples with a slight iteration of a veil mystery etc... This is a full blown veil inspiration.

What inspires me about this film is how knowledgeable the writers are about the nuances of relationships, about taking risks, the highs and lows, and how we must always continue to move forward. Love is hard work and can be a fickle and fragile mistress, yet as durable as iron if treated properly with finesse and patience. I learned a lot from the interactions and concepts conveyed in this most delectable installment of the Wedding Veil series (nod to the deep dish pizza).
