The Wedding Veil Journey

This is the sixth of the "Wedding Veil" Hallmark movies, all released in 2022 and 2023. Will it be the final one? I suppose we will just wait and see. My wife and I have been watching them, mainly on DVD from our public library. We enjoy them as cute and clean entertainment.

This one focuses on Tracy and Nick who have been married now for three years but still haven't had a proper honeymoon. They both are so busy with their respective careers they may go days communicating with post-it notes. So they plan a honeymoon, to an out-of-the-way Greek spot. Plus, they need to take along the veil for an unrelated reason. That comes in handy when a British fellow shows up and gets attracted to the young lady working at the resort.

But a bigger story element is young Leo, and orphan of about 10 or 11 who is studying art in a local school. He also runs and has aspirations of running for Greece in the Olympics some day. Tracy and Nick take a keen interest in him and make plans to help him in ways they could not have expected.

Overall a nicely entertaining movie with some good relationship themes, and of course nice scenery.

Here Allison Sweeny and her husband have hit a questionable patch in their marriage because they're both working too much and spend little time together. So they decided to take the time, take their "not done yet" honeymoon, and after spinning a globe wind up in Greece.

There's an excuse to take the veil with them, of course. Everything starts out okay, but then her two friends show up? On her honeymoon? The honeymoon expressly designed to provide alone time for her and her husband? Not only did that not ring true, but if it had I'd have considered it incredibly rude and inappropriate. But it happened because the formula for this series required it, not because it actually made sense.

The romance is a rich woman's grandson and the sister of the brother/sister owners of the B&B. They don't spend NEARLY enough screen time on that story.

Another subplot is a young orphan Greek boy who draws great pictures ... mostly in pencil. They spend way too MUCH screen time on that one, and the outcome is utterly predictable from early on.

For me, an okay watch but definitely not a rewatch. Huge series fans, please don't hammer me for that. LOL.

7.8 stars.

This one is also tied with the best of the Wedding Veil series. I hope they continue with the adventures, because these movies are a true gem of the Hallmark universe. What makes this one just as good as the two featuring Autumn Reeser is the actual journey and landscape, and the variety. Our main couple goes to Greece to finally take their honeymoon after a few years of being married. They meet some wonderful people there, including siblings who run a hotel b&b, and there is the guy and his mother, and the young boy named Leo, who is quite endearing I might add. "The Wedding Veil Journey" does not lack for beautiful scenery, ocean beaches, wonderful towns and cityscapes... the food aspect is tantalizing, and the romance is ever present as the lead characters continue with the marital fun, and the new couple is interesting and lively. This film has all the desired elements wrapped up in one glorious finale of the 6 Veil installments. They must make more of these, please, please, pretty please.

Veil #6 is a must see, if you are wondering whether to continue with the series after the first few, take my advice and stick with it. The last two (#5 and #6) are the best. In case they make #7 and more, then that means #6 is not the last one, and that would put a smile on my face.

Ok, yes, there are things in this last of the second trilogy that should not happen IRL but they do here. Suspension of disbelief, people. Allison Sweeney as Tracey lets her heart shine through more in this one. There are several subplots-just go with it. Nobody should have their friends along on their honeymoon but by this point the ladies are basically sisters under the skin. The husbands are sweet enough to just go with it. Subplot with Leo- is he not the cutest little actor? The main thing is ask yourself if you want a hard hitting true life drama or a little escapism. For me, real life has been a little too hard hitting and I love the escape. Of course it's not realistic! It's a Hallmark movie. Beautiful scenery, a pretty good story, good looking people (so sue me, I like the looks and fashion). The worst thing is now I want to go to Greece!

The best thing about this movie was the location, a rare movie not filmed in Canada makes these better, even if they have their own weak moments. It also allows for a reduction in forced diversity, which this network has gone completely overboard with the last few years.

Deducted 5 pts on the girls having to come to the honeymoon of their friend & him being okay with it, what a joke that they felt this was necessary, they talk all the time on their laptops.

The Veil series had potential but IMO they killed it with the 3 new ones, just stick with the main couples & their life, with the occasional chat w/their overbearing friends. We don't need other couples & their relationships, put that in a new movie.
