The Wedding Veil Unveiled

7.8 stars.

I think the reason it's better for me is because I like Autumn Reeser the most out of the three female leads of Wedding Veil. The Italian cityscape and countryside was very welcoming. I don't know how much was filmed in Italy, but let's just go with it, because it appears authentic. This film's magic is in the setting, the charm and energy of the people, and the interactions between the leads. Reeser is single and teaching art history to a bunch of Italian college students who are difficult to please. Her secondary mission is to trace the origin of the Veil. She meets a wonderful Italian man and they fall in love.

I must note there are too many coincidences with him and his family. How many times can you run into the same guy in a city that size, only to find out his family is directly linked to this mysterious artifact (the veil) that grants that you will find true love? However, this story is leaning toward the veil being magical because it's the veil itself that grants true love to those who come in contact with it. So the people don't find true love, the veil creates true love. Hard to explain. Basically, in other words, the veil is like love potion #9. If you drink the potion, you fall in love with that person, so it is with the veil, if you touch it or have it in your possession, you fall in love with someone in close proximity. The veil must be present in that location for love to happen there. At least that's what I've witnessed so far. This may change as I view additional installments of this series.

The family is wonderful, they are classic Italians. They have a multi-generational family business, they share all activities, including lunch every day. They chat, laugh, and argue a lot - vintage Italian. She joins him and his family for lunch and they spend a lot of time together, and the family loves her right away.

Good feeling with this one. I like it better than the first.

Actually more than what my title says. Romance. A Quest. A Travelog. History.

I noted a while back that Lacey Chabert had done a string of Hallmark movies that were stories set in interesting places. Travelogs. I find it interesting that Chabert was the architect of this series, yet Reeser gets to do the travel story.

While the story itself had no great highs or lows, surprises or tension (other than the romantic), with all those things above going on it still is enough to be worth watching.

The provenance of the veil has no great historical import, but it is a nice story. The travel scenery is pretty good in this movie.

Autumn Reeser and Paolo Bernardini have decent chemistry. With so many things going on I'm surprised the movie managed enough screen time to pull of the romantic chemistry.

This is the second film in Hallmark's Love-u-ary The Wedding Veil trilogy and is about the second of three college friends who purchase a veil together in San Francisco at an antique shop. The veil has a legacy of love and it is said that whoever has the veil will find true love.

The veil started with Lacy Chabert's character, Avery Morrison an aspiring Art Curator at a museum in Chicago. She meets and marries her true love while in possession of the veil, a wealthy trust fund baby and benefactor of the museum. Avery and her now husband uncover a lost Italian painting at the museum that seems to depict their exact veil on the portrait of a woman.

In this, the second film, The Wedding Veil Unveiled, Autumn Reeser's character Emma Lowell takes the veil back to Italy with her to see if she can find the origin or provenance of the veil. Emma is a professor of art and is to teach a section on American art in Padua, Italy. Her search for the origins of the veil lead her to Verona where they are famous for their lace and their still exists some of the oldest lace shops in Italy. During this excursion she meets Paolo...who just happens to be a relative of the woman in the painting and of the house where the lace was made. They are still in the business. The three girls think Paola's grandmother should have the veil and they agree to give it back to her. But there is some unfinished mysteries left...like why is Adrianna (the woman in the portrait) wearing the veil for the portrait...but then doesn't wear it for her actual wedding? As Paolo, a widower, and Emma try to find the answers they not only find a family secret, but find that they have feelings for one another.

This was sweet and romantic without being overly gushy. It hit just the right note...and the Italian scenery was different but still absolutely gorgeous. It was nice to see a big Italian family who works together and has their weekly business meeting over a table with food. There are some nice references to vintage films...both American and Italian and a several Italian proverbs are discussed...mainly about slowing down and being in the moment (something most Americans can take note of).

This was a wonderful second chapter in The Wedding Veil story and I can't wait for Alison Sweeney in part three! This is a must see for a romantic...in fact I enjoyed it so much I looked up the author who wrote the original books this series was based upon.

I loved this 2nd film in the The Wedding Veil series. It's such a refreshing change to the usual Hallmark films & loved the history behind the veil. The locations are absolutely stunning - Italy is my favourite European country. Autumn Reeser is one of my favourite Hallmark actors & there was chemistry between her & Paolo. Whoever choose Autumn's wardrobe had impeccable taste. I can't wait for my Wedding Veil Legacy DVD to arrive from the US.

Not a terrible move, but really slow. I like Autumn Reeser and was cute as usual. The male lead was likable. The scenery was beautiful. The movie was just terribly boring.
