This movie had everything. It was so funny! I laughed out loud many times. It was educational and heartwarming. The letter story and the story of Rita's mother were fantastically told and brilliantly brought to the screen by phenonmenal acting. The wedding, with all the last-minute problems and solutions was so sweet and so Rita and Norman. The romance factor between Shane and Oliver was off-the-charts fantastic! The movie was PERFECTION!

I seldom, if ever, watch a movie twice. That has changed with the SSD series on Hallmark! It offers such intrigue, such well developed plots, characters & dialogue--all so well 'delivered'! Since all have been unbelievably well developed and portrayed, it is not only the writing but the total production that is outstanding...astounding... in fact the best of the best. And this particular movie of the series rates the very best of all the rest!

I have been a fan of SSD since the pilot movie premiered and I will continue to love and support this series for as long as Hallmark continues to make more movies. To the Altar was just the best and all the actors were at the top of their game in this one. I loved finally seeing the wedding take place...just as in real life, a little sadness sprinkled in with the joy...What a story!!! Kudos to all involved in the production of this series...so inspiring!!

DONNA DOYLE DERR

I truly hope this is not the end of this wonderful series. I only say that because it is so hard to imagine a more perfect movie for it to end on. The magnificent culmination of all that has come before it. Seldom do you see writing on this level in a TV movie, and the dialogue delivered with such depth of feeling by all the cast. It's multi-layered, beautifully crafted, funny, insightful, and so respectful of mental illness. And the richness to the main characters' romances is intoxicating and believable, to the point of spontaneous tears. I've enjoyed all of their movies, but this is the only one I've written a review for, because I truly believe it is something all should share. For there are simply no false steps here. The very best. 10/10.
