Hallmark Movie Review: Sealed with a List

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/a-merry-scottish-christmas

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I greatly admire Carley’s courage and commitment! It takes a lot to end your current career and go for your childhood dreams. If I had gone for my childhood dreams, I probably would have been a veterinarian or jockey. While my dreams have changed over time, Carley’s haven’t. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Carley is passed over for a promotion and asked to support her boss’s son, Wyatt, while he learns the position she coveted. A year later and Carley is unhappy with her life, so she volunteers to take the fall when Wyatt makes a critical mistake and is fired. Wyatt knows she was the best employee at the company, and when Carley asks Wyatt to make sure she completes her New Years resolution list, he agrees. But nothing comes for free and she must help him be a better employee.

My Two Cents

This was such a classic Hallmark movie! It had all the right feels in all the right places. It was relatable, funny, and sweet. It’s one of those movies I could (and will) watch at anytime. Let’s talk about all the things I loved!

I loved the scene where Carley and Wyatt officially become friends. It reminded me of how we teach our kids to make friends. Why don’t adults do this more often? Wouldn’t that make life easier? I’ve gotta tell you, it’s difficult making friends as an adult! Maybe we should give it a try.

I loved how this movie made me feel better for always wanting to bake my Grandma’s kolache recipe, but never actually doing it because it takes too much time and attention. There is so much I do during the holidays and I’m usually barely holding it together, so the cookies are one of the first things I cut. But I will often beg my mother to make and send them.

I loved when Jamie and Carley were sitting around after the caroling and Jamie noticed how much happier Carley was. It’s amazing what going for your dreams will do for someone’s emotional state. I think it’s Mark Anthony who said, “If you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.” Find your dreams and go for them!

I love Katie Findlay! There’s something about her and her voice that suck me in. If you like her too, be sure to check her out in Love Strikes Twice. It’s an alternate future movie that I always take a moment to watch when it’s on.

Finally, I loved the heartfelt moments at the end of the movie. I won’t list them all, because I don’t want to give away too much, but here are a couple…As a parent, we always want our children to be fulfilled and inspired. Carley’s mom’s speech when she sees the dress Carley has been working on is pure gold. Add in the love and support from Wyatt and I bet she feels like she can walk on water. These are the moments us Hallmarkers live for and this movie does them really well!

If you have a chance, try this movie! Let me know what you thought! Leave a comment!

Hallmark Movie Review: A Merry Scottish Christmas

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/a-merry-scottish-christmas

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oh my goodness Hallmark! This did not disappoint! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Siblings Lindsay and Brad Morgan travel to Scotland where they find out their mother was suppose to be a Duchess. But she escaped to America with her American boyfriend. They married and had Lindsay and Brad. Now they are spending the holidays in Scotland to learn about their heritage and maybe learn a thing or two about themselves along the way.

My Two Cents

Not gonna lie, after watching Navigating Christmas last night and Christmas Island recently, I worried this would be too much family drama and not enough romance. Maybe it was, but it didn’t matter. It was perfect!

Following the siblings on their journey of discovering their Glencrave roots, restoring their relationship, and finding (or re-finding) love was exactly what I didn’t know I needed tonight.

Random question…am I the only one who kept calling it Glengarry/Glencarry? That must be a town in another Hallmark movie. Bonus points if anyone out there knows!

While I’m asking you questions…did anyone happen to notice the scene in the pub where Lindsay dances with another guy? Was that Will Kemp from Christmas Waltz? The guy looked super familiar and Lacey made a comment about only knowing how to waltz or something else. It instantly made me think of their movie together. I love Hallmark Easter Eggs!

Anyhow, from the whiskey contest to the dirty reindeer hot cocoa and Shetland ponies, this movie had a lot of fun and enjoyment. And if that wasn’t enough, the ending kept me on the edge of my seat!

Seriously! I was dying (and yelling at the tv a bit) while watching the clock – wondering how they were going to fit the classic Hallmark ending in with just a few minutes left, but they did!! Just barely! We even get a quick epilogue!

This movie really had me wishing I could live in a town like Glencrave and find out I was a secret Duchess. At this point in my life, I doubt that’s going to happen. Good thing I can live through Hallmark.

If you like movies that involve repairing family relationships, fixing a broken marriage, finding new love, small town coziness, sexy Scottish accents, and so much more, then I encourage you to watch this! It was definitely worth my evening and now I really can’t wait to watch Holiday Hotline!

Hallmark Movie Review: Christmas Island

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/christmas-island

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This one completely sucked me in! There’s something special about a family coming together and a Grinch finding the Christmas spirit. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Kate is hired as a private pilot to take the famous Sharp family to Switzerland. Unfortunately a bad storm prevents them from completing the trip and they become stranded in Nova Scotia’s Christmas Island.

My Two Cents

I unexpectedly enjoyed this movie! It’s not new or different. But I’m always a sucker for small town romances where a twist of fate (in this case a snow storm) causes broken families to come back together and repair their relationships. There’s something so heartwarming about these types of movies.

I’m almost always a big fan of enemies to lovers plots. It was fun to see Kate and Oliver throw eye daggers at each other in the early part of the movie. Then Kate used Oliver to help her “do Christmas” with the kids. And through doing Christmas, they formed their relationship. It fit with their personalities much better than love at first sight!

Of course none of this could have happened without the freak snowstorm, Jim, Jim’s family, and Christmas Island’s charm. It was fun watching the candy making, Santa letter sending, and all the other little activities the family did that brought them together. I loved that it all happened without technology. When we put down the electronics, it’s a lot easier to see what’s right in front of us.

This will be a movie I can re-watch multiple times. It won’t reach The Most Wonderful Time of the Year status, but it’s pretty good! It even had me tearing up at the end for all the right reasons. Give this one a try!

Hallmark Movie Review: The Santa Summit

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-santa-summit

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Daylight savings is kicking my butt today. I thought I would be extra well rested, and maybe I was, but now I’m extra tired! But I’m glad I stayed awake for this movie! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Jordin convinces her friends to participate in an event called The Santa Summit. Everyone dresses in Santa costumes and travels to different locations throughout the city. At the first location, Jordin drops her wallet and runs into Liam while retrieving it. They chat for a bit, then decide to go inside for a drink. Unfortunately, they lose track of each other on their way to the bar and didn’t exchange phone numbers/names. Now they’re both trying to find each other throughout the Summit event.

My Two Cents

I enjoyed this fun Sunday night movie a lot more than I thought I would. Sometimes having three couples is too much for a Hallmark movie, but these three couples were great. I loved seeing each one meet and fall in love.

It was especially fun seeing Liam interact with Jordin’s friends before he re-met her at the end of the night. He was such a sweet guy. Buying drinks, lending an ear, and providing words of encouragement. A man worthy of Jordin’s affections!

Stella’s date was also amazing! I loved how he won her cynical heart and coaxed her to sing on stage again. I’m glad that in the Hallmark universe I can pretend they’ll be together forever, because I really liked them.

I’m a little sad there wasn’t someone in the movie for Dasher. I really liked him/his role. And the girls chanting “FASTER! FASTER! FASTER!” in the back of his cart. 🤣 It was really cute having Santa’s reindeer to transport the Santas around town.

Anyhow, if you catch this movie on, give it a chance. It’s cute and fun, and while won’t make my favorites list, it’s definitely one I could see myself watching again. I’m a huge Hunter King fan and I hope she’s in more movies this year! Let me know what you thought! Leave a comment!

Hallmark Movie Review: Never Been Chris’d

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/never-been-chrisd

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My reverse harem reading self was slightly hoping this would turn into a ménage à trois movie. But that’s definitely a little too risqué for sweet Hallmark. As disappointing as that is, this movie is anything but disappointing! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Liz and Naomi had high school crushes on the popular guy Chris Silver. He had so many girl friends, that they use to call his love conquests “Chris’d.” Now they’re back home for the holidays and continue to run into their hotter than ever high school crush. Will one or both of them become Chris’d?

My Two Cents

My favorite movie I’ve watched so far this season! It’s lighthearted, funny, and surprisingly deep (if you want it to be). And even though it wasn’t Hallmark’s first ménage à trois movie, it was still entertaining!

Initially it looked like this movie would provide more cat fighting over Chris, but instead it focused more on Naomi and Liz’s relationship, which I truly felt. It’s hard growing up with your best friend and at the end of high school you either part ways and go to different Universities or stay together.

Both decisions come with potential issues. For Naomi and Liz those potential issues come to a head. And they need to determine how their relationship will evolve to overcome their challenges. I loved how this story line played out!

Then there was Chris. Not gonna lie, he isn’t my favorite Hallmark character. I really didn’t like how he lied about being vegan. Did we ever receive an explanation for it?! I didn’t feel like we did and I didn’t understand what purpose the lie served?

Despite Chris not being my favorite character, I still really enjoyed the movie. Maybe Hallmark will do a sequel where Naomi and Chris breakup and Chris and Liz start something, but then they break it off and both Naomi and Liz find someone better? It could be fun Hallmark! You can call it Better than Chris’d 🙂

If you have a chance, try this movie. It’s a fun way to spend a quiet evening without tears. Haha. Let me know what you thought! Leave a comment!

Hallmark Movie Review: Flipping For Christmas

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/flipping-for-christmas

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ack! Another week of Countdown to Christmas and another Hallmark movie that’s “solid.” I haven’t seen one yet that I’m adding to my favorites list for the season. Though I was lucky enough to catch The Most Wonderful Time of the Year on earlier today!! That one will forever remain on my all time favorites list. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Abi agrees to help flip a house until she finds out Bo is co-owner. While Abi’s family wants to sell the house, Bo wants to keep it and use as a B&B. While trying to make a decision on what to do with the finished

My Two Cents

Another Hallmark movie that has all the key Hallmark movie qualities, but is missing the IT factor that would land it on most favorite lists. If you’re looking for the best movies of the season, I don’t think you’ll be adding this one to that list.

Of course, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t watch it. After all, it has all those key Hallmark movie qualities. Small town, saving a small town from a big corporation, guy with a golden heart, snowball fight, arguments over how boring the color beige is, etc. It’s definitely worth giving a chance.

On top of everything I already listed, Bo and Abi were adorable together. Oh! And I also really liked Abi’s sister and her family. Especially when Abi and her sister started talking about how controlling Abi has always been and she asks her sister how she stopped be as controlling. Then Abi’s sister starts telling her how to sort the toys into the proper bins. 😂 Yup, she is definitely still a work in progress. Just like the rest of us. Haha.

All of these items somehow still made me invested enough in the movie to see it through the to the end. And when Grandpa gave his final speech to Abi and her sister, I cried.

This movie should have broad appeal to people who like a little enemies to lovers (definitely not overdone), romcoms, and small town romance movies. I hope you have a chance to watch it and let me know what you thought! Leave a comment!

Hallmark Movie Review: Mystic Christmas

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/mystic-christmas

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

It’s the second week of Christmas movies! Yay! I’ve entered a Hallmark movie bracket again. So, I’ll be making sure to write reviews more often. Otherwise I’ll be in big trouble when it’s time to vote. Haha!

Anyhow, I have a thing for second chance and small town romances. Add two awkward people, some wildlife, and lots of corny jokes and I’m set for the next 2 hours. Mystic Christmas won’t make my favorite list for the season, but it’s a solid movie. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Juniper visits Mystic, Connecticut to help take care of Peppermint the seal for a local aquatic rehabilitation center. While there she reconnects with Sawyer and enjoys helping with the small town holiday traditions.

My Two Cents

Jessy Schram is one of my favorite Hallmark actresses! She had me crying in Time for Them to Come Home for Christmas and laughing in Harvest Moon. I think Harvest Moon might be my favorite movie of hers, but I loved her paired with Chandler Massey in Mystic Christmas.

Jessy in RomCom roles is my favorite version of her. She shines as Juniper – the awkward introverted seal lady 😉 She even mentioned her anxious mind causing mean thoughts. Loved that! We need to normalize mental health like that! Beyond anything, I loved how she connected with Lou and helped her embrace the things she loves.

Her other half, Chandler was equally endearing as Sawyer – the fanny pack wearing town helper and all around nice guy. I actually liked when he called out the awkward moments. “It’s a date plan!”

Totally derailing this conversation…did anyone else Google The Donkey Song?? No? Just me? Here it is! You’re welcome 🙂 Fair warning, it’s It’s a Small World in the way it becomes stuck in your brain and refused to leave.

Now that you’re back from The Donkey Song silliness…

This is the type of cozy/comfy Hallmark Christmas movie that will appeal to many. It’s sweet romcom moments are there to ensure the movie isn’t too heavy and the plot line is solid. Give this movie a try!

Hallmark Movie Review: A Pinch of Portugal

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/a-pinch-of-portugal

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐

For half this movie I wanted to fall asleep. The other half I wished I had. I’m giving it a 2.5 and rounding up because I hate dealing with half stars. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Anna’s the sous chef for a tv show. But when the chef plays hard to get for a contract renewal, she becomes the main star. She switches up the format and finds herself in the process. While she’s finding herself, her camera man, Russ, is finding her interesting too.

My Two Cents

This really wasn’t my movie. I almost turned it off multiple times, but I stuck with it hoping it would get better. Spoiler alert…it didn’t.

Such a shame too, because I really like Heather Hemmens. And BONUS! Luke Mitchell was pretty cute too. Something about that long dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. Yum! I don’t know about you, but I’d like to see him play a bad boy on a motorcycle with some tattoos. Make it happen Hallmark!!

Sadly, their good looks weren’t enough to float this movie. I didn’t feel any chemistry throughout the movie. I actually wanted Anna to fall for the other guy. I mean, I saw when Russ started getting jealous of Anna’s love interest, but I wasn’t feeling it back from Anna.

If you have other options for movies, go with those. They’ll probably be better than this one. Sad but true.

I’m going to finish watching Pearl in Paradise so my night isn’t a complete lose. Good night!

Hallmark Movie Review: The Wedding Cottage

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-wedding-cottage

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It’s been a few weeks since I sat here and felt like reviewing a movie. But I’ve been watching them and I hope you have too! There’s been a few must see movies that I’m glad I didn’t miss and The Wedding Cottage was a sweet movie to bring me back to writing. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

After years of wedding planning, Vanessa wrote a new guidebook called Tying the Knot. To celebrate the release of her book, she’s planning a free wedding for a Veteran and his fiance. They pick The Wedding Cottage as their venue. Unfortunately, The Wedding Cottage is no longer a wedding venue. But that won’t deter Vanessa from trying to reopen it for the wedding!

My Two Cents

I’ve been very busy the last few weeks and by the time the Saturday night premiere movie started, I’ve been too exhausted to consider writing or the movie was so underwhelming that I didn’t finish watching it. But this was a great movie to bring me back to my happy place; writing reviews and watching sweet romance movies.

The Wedding Cottage captured my attention from the very beginning! I especially liked when Vanessa shows up at the cottage and Evan shoots down every attempt she makes at using The Wedding Cottage. Eventually her tenacity makes Evan agree and that one agreement leads to 5 weeks of them working together and becoming familiar with each other.

It wasn’t just the plot that made this movie special. I really loved Brendan Penny and Erin Krakow together in this movie! Their chemistry was on point throughout. Their characters fought, laughed, and fell in love and I felt every moment of it. It was classic Hallmark at it’s finest!

This movie might be up there with my other favorites like Love on the Sidelines and A Country Wedding. If you’re an It Was Always You fan, I think you’ll definitely like this one too. It had a lot of the same feels. So, if you’re looking for a sweet and cute romance movie to settle down with for the evening, definitely try this movie.

Hallmark Movie Review: Made for Each Other

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/welcome-to-valentine

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I LOVE CORNY ROMCOMS!! Add a little bit of magic and I’m in heaven! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Rachel is feeling pressured by her mother to find a man. She’s tried online dating and been setup on multiple blind dates, but still can’t find the perfect man. Being an artist, she decides to create the perfect man out of clay. One night her friend Doris comes over and pulls out a family heirloom necklace. They decide place it around the clay mans neck to see if the folklore about the necklace is true; that it can make someones desires come true. The next day, Rachel finds that her sculpture has turned into a man.

My Two Cents

I was really looking forward to this movie and I’m so glad I wasn’t disappointed! I love corny romcoms with magic. I wasn’t expecting the Jewish family and folklore part, but absolutely loved it!!

I’m not sure about you, but I’ve definitely wanted to make a perfect man out of clay once or twice in my life. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could make a man who understood you and knew everything you wanted or liked? They knew your favorite foods and when you needed something before you needed it. It sounds fantastic!

But what if they always agreed with you? Didn’t challenge you when you need it? Didn’t argue with you when you’re wrong? It might be tempting at first to want these things, but eventually, it would become dull. Challenges make life interesting.

So, it’s not surprising when despite Clay being everything Rachel wanted, he lacked what she needed. Enter David. The frustrating man who constantly challenged Rachel to do more and be more. Supportive of her dreams and encouraging in her desires.

David helped her find what she needed. But don’t worry about Clay. This is a Hallmark movie and he finds his happily ever after too. I loved the ending!

This will be one of those movies I can watch over and over again and enjoy a little more every time. If you like corny romcoms with a little bit of magic, then you will probably enjoy this. If you’re looking for a movie with a super deep meaning or that’ll make you cry, then stay clear of this one.

Hallmark Movie Review: Welcome to Valentine

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/welcome-to-valentine

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐

Hiya friends!!]ROAD TRIP ROMANCE TIME! Yay! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Olivia is a down on her luck artist who is trying to find a way back to her hometown Valentine, Nebraska for a big yearly parade, and her friend needs to go to Chicago for a job. Luckily, George (her friend’s cousin) needs to transport a car to from New York to LA and can drive past her hometown on his way. So, they all make an agreement to travel together.

My Two Cents

I love road trip romance movies! There’s so many Christmas ones. Like A Christmas Detour, Road Trip Romance, Cross Country Christmas, and I’m sure many more. When I found out there was going to be a Valentine’s road trip romance, I was pretty excited. Welcome to Valentine doesn’t trump the Christmas road trip movies, but it’s an okay runner up.

Why just okay? Well…I really enjoyed the first half of the movie. The opening scene at the gallery and spilling the soup on the gallery owner were fantastic. It had my romcom heart giggling and laughing like a school girl with a crush. I even enjoyed the scenes leading up to getting on the road and the rules of riding in Big Red.

Then I was a little let down. I was hoping for some fun roadside stories or events. But there weren’t any. We went straight to the Chicago drop off and almost immediately onto Valentine.

Not the end of the world, because Valentine is a super cute small town with all the wonderful traditions and love you would expect for a town with the name Valentine. I almost expected someone to have a catch phrase like, “That’s Valentine for ya.” I suppose they kinda did with “Hiya!”

Then the second half of the movie came along and I tuned out. I’m not sure why, but I completely lost interest. It was cute watching George develop relationships within the town and Olivia and her sister prepare for the parade. But I think things just started moving too slow for me.

Jeff didn’t care for it either. He came in shortly after Olivia and George landed in Valentine and he zoned out too. He enjoyed Pearl in Paradise earlier today a lot more. Honestly, so did I.

If you go into this movie with low or no expectations and you enjoy cute romcoms with small towns, then this will probably be a good fit. I think my expectations were a bit too high for it.

Hallmark Movie Review: A Paris Proposal

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/a-paris-proposal

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A fake marriage romcom! YES! It was cute, funny, and engaging! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Anna and Sebastian are sent to Paris to win an new account for their marketing firm. During the interview process, Anna accidentally talks about a honeymoon and the clients think she’s talking about her marriage to Sebastian. They decide to continue the mistake for the rest of the visit to Paris. Since the clients are relatives of Sebastian’s, they put them up in a honeymoon suite at a family hotel. They’ll need to sell their fake relationship and a killer proposal in order to land the account.

My Two Cents

I loved so much about this movie! The little jokes, engagement scenes, mime scene, the list could go on and on. Not to mention Alexa and Nicholas were fantastic together!

I mean, I totally have a girl crush on Alexa PanaVega! Who can blame me? She’s a beautiful and great actress who plays uptight women very well. I enjoyed seeing her in Taking a Shot at Love earlier today. She really develops connections with her co-leads. So, it wasn’t a surprise when combined with Nicholas Bishop’s charisma, the movie was something special to watch.

There were many scenes that made this movie so special. My favorite was the shopping trip at Laurant’s. The whole thing felt a little Pretty Womanish to me. Obvioulsy not because Anna is a prostitute, but because of her trying on of high end clothes with personal shoppers at her beck and call. Plus, the necklace scene! I was waiting for Sebastian to close the box on her fingers 🙂

Okay, I lied, my favorite scene was the one year follow-up. YES Hallmark! Please do more of these epilogues!! It wasn’t much, but it was perfect.

This movie will rank up there with my every time favorites. The movies I will watch EVERY SINGLE TIME they’re on TV. Movies like Love on the Sidelines and A Country Wedding. The ones Jeff has even had the joy of watching multiple times. Hehe. 😉

If you like romcoms and fake marriages, then give this movie a try! I think it’ll have broad appeal. I hope you enjoy it!

Hallmark Movie Review: Sweeter Than Chocolate

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/sweeter-than-chocolate

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐

Gah! This movie was missing the romance and lighthearted feel I desperately wanted tonight. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Cynical Dean Chase is a local investigative reporter who outs people making false claims. He’s assigned to create a fluff piece on Cupids; magic chocolates help people find love. Unfortunately, he ruins his chances when he insults the owner, Lucy.

My Two Cents

If you read my blog somewhat regularly, then you’ll know I love movies with a bit of magic. So I was excited for this movie, because it seemed like it would be similar to A Kismet Christmas and the kismet cookies.

But this movie didn’t bring about the same feelings. There seemed to be more sadness. Lucy’s mom having lost her husband and Lucy in general seemed sad. Don’t worry though, because there’s a happily ever after.

Even with the happily ever after, I’m torn on this movie. I liked the magic of the chocolates, but the movie couldn’t keep my attention. I found myself gravitating to my book instead.

Maybe I’ll try this movie again tomorrow and see if it has greater appeal. In the mean time, I might search out Love, Romance & Chocolate for the millionth time. After all, who doesn’t mind a movie with accents, chocolate, and Lacey Chabert?

Hallmark Show Review: The Way Home

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-way-home

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐

I won’t be reviewing all episodes, but I wanted to capture my first impressions on this new series! Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Kat losses her job and Alice is expelled from school, so they move back home to Canada.

My Two Cents

OMG!!! YES!! I will for sure be watching this series every week! I love time travel fantasy shows!

This was a great first episode. Especially when Elliot told Alice he would help her any time. It’s interesting that he remembers her, but her mother doesn’t. Maybe she will eventually?

Can she prevent Kat’s brother’s death? Did he drown in the pond? I’m dying to find out!

Will Elliot and Kat fall in love?! He obviously loves her! I hope we see some romance there in time.

I know this is a short review, but it’s only an hour long show. I can’t wait for next week! If you liked this show, then you should check out Disney’s Secrets of Sulfur Springs. It’s similar, but a little spookier.

Hallmark Movie Review: The Wedding Veil Inspiration

Image via: https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-wedding-veil-inspiration

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐

Oh man! I wanted to like this movie. But like the first movie, I wasn’t feeling it. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉

Quick Recap

Emma’s career and Paolo’s new store aren’t doing well. Then Paolo wants to move back to Italy. How will Emma and Paolo overcome these new challenges?

My Two Cents

Uggghhhh! I don’t know what it is about this series, but I can’t get into it. Aside from the third movie (The Wedding Veil Legacy), I haven’t really been enjoyed the others too much. I think I liked Legacy because I really like Alison’s character and her leading man.

Don’t get me wrong…I love Autumn and Lacey! They are amazing women and they do well in these roles. I’m just not into these movies. I’d rather be sitting here reading my current book or watching something like Love on the Sidelines.

I’m hoping the next movie will be more my speed, since I liked Alison’s first one. But I also suspect one of the reasons I’m not a huge fan is because these ladies are already in love and married. Anything after this is just drama to have drama. I’m not that kind of girl.

I know there will be people who love this movie. There are a ton of people who love this whole franchise. Sadly, I’m not one of them. If you’ve liked the other movies, you will probably enjoy it. If you haven’t, then don’t waste your time.
