The Wedding Veil Inspiration

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!

Perhaps it is because I'm worn out from the common Christmas movie plots, but I enjoyed this movie. And it wasn't quite the usual non Christmas plot even though it is predictable and has a very low level of tension. Emma's trials are not that different than anyone who has a demanding boss. There is a small twist at the end and I did wonder if that was the case before it got there.

I really enjoyed Kacey Rohl as Lilly. She had good chemistry with Carlo Marks. I wondered if the age difference was a bit much especially since Lilly is a grad student with Rohl seemingly playing below her real age. Still, Lilly is a very appealing character and keeps Emma going while having her own joy of life. Charlotte adds a little bit of spice also.

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.

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 second sequel to the Wedding Veil trilogy continues the story of Emma (Autumn Reeser), who is back at work while her husband is opening a lace store in Chicago.

The main stories are about husband Paolo (Paolo Bernardini) needing to return home to Italy to care for his father, and Emma's relationship with her boss, who says she wants Emma to succeed her when she retires.

While there is some romance for another couple in this story, this episode lacks inspiration, primarily due to the relationship between Emma and boss Nancy (Lynda Boyd), which is toxic. Later, the viewer is asked to overlook Nancy's disrespect and nastiness for a silly reason. The film is a fail for this reason alone.
