Yes! I’m in ROMCOM heaven over here! I wish there was a new romcom every week! Here is a quick recap and my two cents 😉 

Quick Recap

Darby and Jake are childhood sweethearts who have been engaged for 10 years. Unfortunately, life kept getting in the way of them marrying. Now, their entire town nominated them for Hey Good Day’s competition, Wedding of a Lifetime. With their businesses failing, they decide to enter the competition in hopes of saving the town’s small businesses.

My Two Cents

I was a little worried when this movie started out sad and heavy. I wasn’t in the mood for a sad/heavy movie tonight. But when the competition started, so did the fun. I absolutely loved Darby and Jake together!

Also I loved all the familiar faces! So many of the supporting cast have been in other movies! Did you notice them? Wish I knew some of their names, but it’s often difficult to get full cast lists. 🙁

Holy fun competition! I wish Jeff and I could do something like that. I like to think we would kick butt. Even if we didn’t, we would definitely laugh 99% of the time and love it. For Darby and Jake, I loved how every game brought them closer together. They had a significant advantage, because they had been together the longest, but they wouldn’t have done so well if they didn’t love each other.

I loved when Darby and Jake sneak out of the hotel and go to the pie shop. Pie for a meal should really be a thing. Sometimes I have dessert for dinner where I eat a hot fudge sundae or cake for dinner (don’t judge, I’m sure most of us have done this at some point in our lives!). I would happily eat pie if we had a pie place, but there is a disturbing lack of pie stores where I live. 😊

Fan picked wedding my butt. I highly doubt the fans would have chosen anything that wound up in their wedding. I’m glad that worked out the way it did. If I had walked into my wedding like that, I would have put an immediate end to it.

Despite the weird fan picked wedding and the sad/heavy opening, I really enjoyed all the romcom and funny moments sprinkled throughout. Jeff and my son even enjoyed quite a few parts. So, I think most people will like this too. If you enjoy silly romcom’s, then give this a shot!
