Wedding at Graceland

This was a pretty good movie for a romance. They should have gotten somebody else for the first dance song. Lee Brice butchered it.

Lordy. Please consider yourself forewarned: romance and feel-good sentiments are awfully thin on the ground in Wedding at Graceland.

Wes Brown is his usual charming self as concert promoter Clay Shepherd. He's really doing the lord's work here alongside co-star Kellie Pickler, who cannot act her way out of a thin, wet paper bag. Forget romantic chemistry; this is make-you-blush bad acting.

What we have in place of sparks or a real plot are two Momzillas and a maniacal event planner steamrolling the happy couple while planning a wedding at Graceland.

Sprinkle a few Elvis songs and a steamboat ride over the top and you've got one pitifully thin movie.

Pickler is not great but she doesn't ruin it as much as the parents of the couple did. Basically this is the story of a wedding planning trainwreck, so much so I thought it was intentionally horrible. Instead of bridezilla it was momzillas. And Laurel's dad is just as bad. David Keith didn't have to act. He just had to stand and look miserable and condemning. And don't forget the ridiculous wedding planner. Talk about no clue.

Except for the singing, this movie had none of the fun of the Christmas episode. I was starting to wonder if there would be any performances by the stars and the first came just before the half-way point. I'm not the biggest country fan (or Elvis) but the leads nailed it in the one performance. I wasn't as thrilled with the guest performer later, but I'm sure many will be.

Fortunately the last part of the movie dumped the parody motif and became sweet and sappy like a typical Hallmark rom/com.

I can't personally recommend this movie and probably won't watch it again. The good things weren't enough to balance out the bad.

I liked this movie- Kellie and Wes - regardless what others thought- keep doing movies Kellie Pickler

I wasn't sure I would lije this movie because I wasn't crazy about Christmas at Graceland. Decided to give it a chance and so glad I did. It is a great movie , I enjoyed it from beginning to the spectacular ending.
