FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL meets THE WEDDING PARTY...
Freya Scott is getting married. Her wedding to Matthew, her long-term
boyfriend, is the first of eight in her calendar this year, and as
someone who prides herself on being meticulously organized, Freya is
intent on making it the perfect day to remember.
But when Matthew calls things off hours before they walk down the aisle,
Freya's entire life plan goes up in smoke. Humiliated and heartbroken,
the last thing she wants is to attend a summer of other peoples'
nuptials on her own.
Fortunately, her friends have an idea: together they devise a series of
outrageous challenges for Freya to complete at each event, designed to
distract her from Matthew and what might have been. From getting stuck
in an old church bathroom and needing to be rescued by the vicar to
making out with a barman at a French chateau, Freya realizes that
despite herself, she might just be having fun.
By the time the final wedding arrives, she will discover that the road
to a happy ending sometimes has unexpected detours, that "I do" is only
the beginning--and that perhaps her own love story isn't over just yet.
