Description

30 days. 1 wedding. No groom. All she needs is a little faith.

At 32, Michal is finally looking forward to the comfort and security of marriage, when she is blindsided by her fiancé’s decision to call off the wedding with only a month’s notice. Unwilling to return to a lonely single life, Michal decides to put her trust in fate and continue with her wedding plans, believing Mr. Right will appear by her chosen date. Confident she will find a match made in heaven, she books a venue, sends out invitations and buys a wedding dress, as her skeptical mother and sister look on with trepidation.

During Michal’s month-long search for a spouse, she enlists the help of two different matchmakers, goes on a series of disastrous blind dates and finds an unexpected connection with a charming but utterly unsuitable pop star — all while dismissing pleas by concerned friends and family members that she reconsider her risky plan.

As the day of the ceremony grows closer and no suitor appears, Michal puts everything on the line to find happiness.

“The Wedding Plan” is getting rave reviews from critics around the world. It is a Critics’ Pick with The New York Times, and it garnered a rousing four-star review from the San Francisco Chronicle.
