“Outdoor weddings can be charming, but no one wants to watch a bride clamber into a portaloo dragging 12 metres of satin and lace.”

This touching comedy follows the pitfalls encountered by the Duncan family on the eve of daughter Maggie's (Ruth Jordon) wedding.  Maggie's father Tom (Howard Oxley) is trying to find a subtle way to question his daughter about her choice of mate, a choice he is not completely in agreement with.

It appears to be a picture perfectly organised wedding day until Maggie's fun loving sister Wanda (Debbi Clarke) arrives, and after meeting Russell (Duncan Mitchell) announces blithely that she is almost certain that she had a million to one chance weekend fling with him, at a recent company convention she attended.

If you think the wedding is doomed - you have never seen her desperately determined mother Cass (Julie Bailey) fling herself into action. Within the crisis Tom, feeling the fire is diminishing in their marriage, sets about trying to rekindle the fire.

Wanda's boyfriend, Axel (John Czerniecki), adds a whole new dimension to his next acting role as Peter Pan.
