Show synopsis: Caroline is to marry her childhood sweetheart. Her mother is taking care of “every detail”. As the wedding gets closer, Caroline’s own wishes for her wedding seem to be ignored. The final straw is when Mark informs Caroline that his obnoxious best friend will be the best man. Finally Caroline has had enough and says “I’ve cancelled my part”. Nobody believes Caroline is serious about calling off the wedding and they continue with preparations. But when the strains of “here comes the bride” begin, will she?
