Wedding Every Weekend

The heartwarming, romantic comedy movie Wedding Every Weekend, released in 2020, wonderfully brings together on-screen Kimberley Sustad, Paul Campbell, and Brandi Alexander, under the well-directed lens of Kevin Fair. The movie is a delightful testament to the unexpected turns of life, the power of friendship and vulnerability, and the surprises that love has in its domain.

The TV-14 rated movie surrounds the lives of two main characters, Brooke and Nate, played convincingly by Kimberley Sustad and Paul Campbell respectively. Brooke is a dedicated and passionate physiotherapist, while Nate is a fun-loving and adventure-seeking free soul. While Brooke is shown helping her patients regain their strength, Nate is seen exploring the world and sharing his high-spirited energy with everyone around him. The two of them, living in the same city, share unique characteristic complexities and a circle of mutual friends that often overlaps, thanks to the multiple weddings they attend together.

Brooke and Nate initially meet at a friend's wedding and realize their paths were likely to cross quite regularly in the near future as they concluded they were invited to the same series of weddings every weekend for a whole month. Initially, their association is rooted in a shared dislike for the many aspects of weddings: the ceremonies, the dances, the pomp, and grandeur. They decide to be each other's 'wedding buddies', attending the weddings together to steer clear of the continuous matchmaking attempts made by their friends.

As the movie progresses, it's a delight to watch as Brooke's meticulousness brushes with Nate's charming recklessness, forming a beautiful juxtaposition. What starts as a convenient agreement between two acquaintances slowly morphs into a deep friendship as they get to know each other weekend after weekend, wedding after wedding. With each subplot, the bond between our two lead characters deepens as they share laughter, dance together, console each other, and help navigate the perils of being single at a wedding.

The casting and performances of the lead actors are commendable. Sustad’s portrayal of Brooke is beautiful as she embodies the character's struggles, reservations about love, and openheartedness with finesse. Campbell as Nate charms the audience with his lively spirit, spontaneous humor, and sensitivity. Together, their on-screen chemistry is palpable and believable.

What is interesting about this movie is how it portrays the wedding landscape through a series of comedic, moving, and poignant moments. From watching multiple couples say ‘I do’, crying through heartfelt speeches, catching the bouquet, dancing at the receptions, Brooke and Nate experience the entire spectrum of emotions and it's strikingly captured in the movie.

Furthermore, supporting stars including Brandi Alexander, in a compelling role, adds more dimension to the storyline with their stellar performances. The comedic moments, feeling-heavy sequences, and the compelling narrative are set against the backdrop of the beautiful city, decorated meticulously for the multiple weddings. The stunning locales and settings add a hint of charm to the overall visual appeal of the movie.

Directed by Kevin Fair, Wedding Every Weekend is a refreshing take on relationships, friendships, shared adventures, and the magic of love. The movie does an excellent job of highlighting how the most profound relationships often stem from friendships and shared experiences. The impeccably scripted dialogues, the pace, and the storyline that combines humor, drama, and romance keep the viewers engrossed.

In conclusion, Wedding Every Weekend is a delightful romantic comedy that presents a charming tale of two individuals who find themselves attending a 'wedding every weekend'. From their evolving dynamic to the possibility of love creeping in, the movie tastefully captures the joy of new beginnings, the messiness of understanding one's feelings, and the sheer delight of love found in the most unsuspected places. It’s a must-watch for anyone who adores heartfelt rom-coms, those who relish sweet and slow-burn romance with a sprinkle of laughter, and a theme of hope and love dominating the narrative.
