Thank you Seattle International Film Festival for programming this film in your 2007 line up!! What a refreshing, fun and unique story!! I can't wait until it goes to theaters or DVD so I can tell my friends to see it!! There's something for everyone in this hilarious movie. I loved the story revolving around the two sisters trying to find their way to a closer relationship as adults and who live completely different lives, one a sweet southern belle and the other a NY city "urbanite." Both are gorgeous!! There are never enough comedies - especially smart and well acted comedies! When will it be in theaters? When will it be available on DVD?

I legitimately do not know how this movie has such a high rating on here because it is absolutely awful, but it is my guiltiest pleasure! The story is pretty bad, the acting is awful, but I absolutely adore this movie! I think Risa and Jeanie are one of the cutest lesbian couple I've ever seen in a movie! I don't know why, but they have the best chemistry! I've seen a lot of other lesbian movies, but almost none have had the amount of chemistry that they do! This movie is awful, but if you're a lesbian you should watch it because it's fun and you'll love it!

I am surprised that it didn't get a higher number of stars. This movie was absolutely enjoyable! I highly recommend it because it was very cute and funny. I saw this movie at last year's Philadelphia Gay and Lesbian Film Festival and have been waiting for it to come on DVD since. You won't be disappointed. The storyline is a comedic mix up of who is who and this leads to a very gay Three Stooges-esquire roundabout without Moe slapping someone. The acting is top notch and It is a great date movie and a very good movie to watch with friends over dinner. If you go to their website (www.outatthewedding.com) you will see a synopsis of the movie and the movie is still making the festival circuit so go see it if it is in your hometown or are a movie chaser!
You may say this is just dumb early on and it is in a smartly written sort of way. The dialogue is fun the set up a bit silly and the wedding a disaster of unprecedented magnitude, but around the 36 minute mark there is a breath of fresh air that will sweep you away. That breath comes in the form of Cathy DeBuono who plays Risa. Risa makes every scene better as she takes over. That is not to say that the cliched character of Jonathon isn't a hoot or that Andrea Marcellus's Alex doesn't deliver her complicated lines perfectly, because they do, but Cathy DeBuono is just in another universe.
(and do not give up at the awful horrible toast by the groom's brother, he goes away quickly never to return)
