Okay, so what’s “Mom of the Bride” about within the first place? Apparently no relation to the “Father of the Bride” films led by Steve Martin, “Mom of the Bride” stars Brooke Shields as Lana, whose daughter Emma (Miranda Cosgrove) returns house to San Francisco from London with a number of bulletins. Not solely is she beginning her personal enterprise, however she’s marrying her boyfriend RJ (Sean Teale) at a beautiful resort in Thailand. Earlier than she is aware of it, Lana is off to Thailand for her daughter’s wedding ceremony — and upon arrival, she makes a startling discovery. RJ’s father Will — performed by rom-com veteran Benjamin Bratt — is a former boyfriend of Lana’s who by no means spoke to her once more after they each graduated from Stanford College.
Clearly, hijinks ensue from there, and there is speedy strife between the 2 households over the marriage. Largely, it is as a result of Lana feels overlooked; when Will offers the soon-to-be newlyweds a lavish New York condominium as a present, Lana feels insufficient, and the entire wedding ceremony planning is being commandeered by model administration knowledgeable Camala (Tasneem Roc), leaving Emma and Lana to observe her lead. All’s nicely that ends nicely, although — Emma and RJ get married, and inexplicably, the movie ends with Will and Lana able to get married as nicely after years aside.
