All language subtitles for Beverly hills wedding 2021

RIP-FIXES-SYNC
by VaVooM

And now,

by the power vested in me
by the great state of Oregon,

I solemnly declare you
husband and wife.

Hey, Molly.

Hey.

How'd it go for you?

Well, I was able to get
a group of hungry people

to smile at the same time,

so, success.

How about you?

Fine, except
the groom's grandmother

tried to set me up
with his cousin.

So, the usual?

Yep, the usual.

Hey, listen, were you able
to get those photos for me?

Yes. I almost forgot.

Thank you, thank you.
This saves me so much time.

That is adorable.

This was 20 years ago,

when my sister, Sophia,

and her boyfriend, Jordan,
were eight years old.

They staged a wedding
at his family's farm,

and I filmed the whole thing
on my first camera.

Of course you did.

That is cute!

Jordan didn't have a ring
for my sister,

so he picked a daisy
and he made one.

They have
the perfect love story.

- Who's that?
- That's...

That's Cory, Jordan's brother.

Didn't you date a Cory?

Yep. One and the same.

I didn't know
you and Sophia dated brothers.

Yeah, a long time ago.

How long has it been
since you've seen him?

It's been years.

He moved to North Carolina
to work on a sailboat.

Yeah. I hope I make it.

Jordan plans to propose
to Sophia at sunset.

Be honest,
was it his idea or yours?

Maybe a little bit of both.

Will Cory be at
this infamous proposal?

Probably not.
He's never home.

All right.

Bye!

You're cutting it close!

Don't worry, Jordan,
I've got it all under control.

Okay, now.

Don't forget
to take her on the path,

near the blueberry field,
all right?

It has much better light
this time of day.

- I won't forget.
- And when you get to the tree,

angle yourself
so she's facing towards me.

I need to get her reaction.

Molly, we've been over this
a hundred times.

I got it.

Hold on.
Okay. That's her.

- She's pulling up.
- Okay.

- Path.
- Yeah.

Blueberry field.

Tree.

Angle out.

- Angle out.
- You got it.

No, no, no. Come here.
I'm sorry.

You've got this one hair...

always.

So weird. Got it!

Hey, Sophia.

Hey. How are you?

- I'm good. How are you?
- Good.

How was your tutoring session?

Oh, fine.

Although it's always hard
to win back kids' attention

after the holidays.

Well, I'm sure you did great.

Thanks.

Let's go for a walk?

Really?
It's kind of cold outside.

Come here.
I'll keep you warm.

Sure.

How was your day?

It was good, honey.
It was good.

What? What is this?

I told you
I had a little surprise.

It's beautiful.

And...

these are for you.

Thank you.

Our swing.

Sophia Machardy...

you are my best friend,

you're my first love...

and my last love.

I'm wondering
if you will marry me?

For real this time.

Yes!

A thousand times, yes.

Congratulations!

What?

You were in on this?

Are you kidding?

You think I'd let him
do this alone?

So do you guys know
where you want to get married?

We've only been engaged
for, like, a minute.

Jordan!

Well, it's never too soon
to start thinking.

I don't really have
anywhere in mind yet.

What about you, Sophia?

Well, whatever we do,
it has to be on a budget,

because I'm still paying off
my student loans,

and Dad just retired.

I really don't want to be
a burden on him.

But, also...

I do want our wedding
to be beautiful and special.

It's gonna be the perfect day.

Well, I've seen plenty
of beautiful weddings

done on a limited budget.

Well, we really have no idea
what we want yet,

but, Molly, you have
attended more weddings

than anybody I know,

and you are
my maid of honor, right?

Took you long enough to ask!

I have a million ideas.

I cannot wait
to plan this wedding.

Can we start now?

Well, like you said,
it's never too soon.

Congratulations!

What?

Congratulations, honey.

Thanks, Dad!

That a boy.
Proud of you, son.

We all wanted to be there
when he popped the question,

but I'm sure we would have
spoiled the surprise.

Well, don't worry, Dad,
we got lots of pictures.

Seriously, honey,
you're the best!

How did you get everyone here
without me noticing?

Well, actually, that was
mostly my brother's doing.

Hey!

I take it you said yes?

Hi.

Hey. Are... Are you okay?

I'm fine. Yeah. Why wou...
Why wouldn't I be fine?

Molly, I'm sorry,
I should've mentioned Cory was...

It's fine, are you kidding?
Why would I care?

Hi. Good to see you.
Really. Great.

Welcome home.

Welcome back to Hughes,
to the farm.

Your farm. Well, it's not...

It's your family's farm,
it's not my farm.

Welcome home.

- Thanks!
- Yeah.

Good to see you, Cory.

Hey, Mr. Machardy.
It's been a long time.

It sure has.

You still working
on that sailboat

in North Carolina?

That was a couple years ago.

Most recently, I've been running
a charter for tourists

up in Seattle.

That sounds like an adventure.

It has its moments,
but it's always nice being home.

You know,

you should come up
when the weather's warm.

I'd love to take you out
on the boat.

Well, I've never been sailing.

Maybe now that I'm retired,
I could give that a try.

Look at you...
handsome as ever.

Cory, you remember Aunt Bea?

How could I forget?

I always tell Molly
you're the one that got away.

Auntie.
Seriously, though?

Come on, Cory.

Help me get the bubbly set up
for everyone.

Thanks.

You look great.

It's been... a while.

Yeah. Four years.

Would be two,

but you missed
Sophia's graduation.

Yeah. I hear that you're still
taking wedding pictures,

that you've got
your own business?

Yeah. It's going great.

That's great.

I'm happy that you're doing
something that you love.

Well, a version of it, anyway.

I hope you haven't
given up on portraits.

You know, you always had
so much talent.

Like that one of your mom.

You can really see her sense
of humor shining through.

So, what,
are you back for good or...

To be honest,

I'm in a little bit
of a transition right now.

I need a change of scenery.

So would you come
back to Hughes?

I don't know.

There's so much to do
and see out there.

But your family's farm is here.

Yes, and Jordan is doing
a fantastic job with it.

I'm really proud of him.

Is your family
still mad at you for leaving?

It took them a while,
but they've come around.

Jordan and Sophia have
an old-fashioned love story,

like a classic Hollywood movie,

the likes of which
you don't see nowadays,

and to an old gal like myself,

those are the best
kind of love stories.

Jordan, all a parent wants
is to see their child happy.

And your father and I know that,
with Sophia by your side,

you always will be.

Thank you.

Before our mother passed away,

she asked me
to make two promises.

One,

that I would always look out
for my baby sister.

And two,

that we would always
follow our dreams.

Today,

I get to keep both promises,

because planning
this wedding with you

is a dream come true.

Cheers, sis.

Cheers.

Let's toast

to the most important thing
of all in life,

to love.

- To love.
- To love.

'Kay.

Thank you so much, Molly.

I'm really
going to treasure these.

I could email them to you,
if you want to post them.

Well, Jordan's not
really big into social media.

He doesn't like his pictures
up for everyone to see.

Yeah, I don't blame him.

Nothing's private these days.

Do you want a chocolate?

Sure.

You are really talented, honey.

Today, I was actually happy
to be a wedding photographer.

I mean, don't get me wrong,

I love taking pictures
of weddings.

It's just I thought, by now,

I'd at least
have a show in a gallery,

or I'd be selling
my portraits online, you know?

What happened
to the gallery in Portland

you sent your portfolio to?

Same as all of them.

They're not looking
for wedding photographers.

You're preserving
people's memories,

and that is extremely noble.

And there's no rule

that says you can't be in albums
and in galleries.

Don't give up
on your dreams, honey.

Thanks for the pep talk,
you two.

I'll figure it out.

So, Cory showed up
after all, huh?

He did.

What's the real story
between you two?

We dated all through
high school and college,

and he was going to take over
his family's farm

after his parents retired,

and I was gonna open up
a studio here in Hughes.

But then,

one summer,
he took a job on some sailboat.

It was only supposed one season,

but he stayed a little longer,

until one day,
he called me up and he said

that Hughes wasn't
the place for him

and he didn't want
to be tied to the farm.

Well, did you ever consider
going with him?

He never asked.

I'm sorry.

Oh, don't be.
It's ancient history.

Now, I have to figure out

how to plan my sister
a perfect wedding

without a budget.

You know what?

My cousin actually won

a wedding dress
in a bridal sweepstakes.

There are a lot of giveaways
right now,

especially with
Valentine's Day coming up.

That's a great idea,
I never thought of that.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Can I call you back?

Thanks again.
Okay. Bye.

Well, day one
of me being engaged

and all anyone wants
to talk to me about

is the wedding,

but it's kind of fun.

Sophia, what about
wedding sweepstakes?

Wedding sweepstakes?
That's a thing?

It's such a thing.

I've been researching it,

and wedding planners and vendors
do giveaways for everything.

Like, dresses, cakes, venues...

Okay, well,
if it's free, then I'm in.

Great. And one more thing?

I want to throw you
an engagement party.

All of your friends
want to celebrate.

That's so sweet.

Thank you.

Molly, I knew you'd be
a good maid of honor.

I'm just sorry Mom isn't here
to help plan things,

but I'm looking out
for you, okay?

And I promise to make this
the best day ever.

You're the best.

Terrence Roquefort,

Beverly Hills Wedding.

Hi. I'm wedding planner
to the stars,

Terrence Roquefort,

and I'm offering
one lucky couple

an all-expense-paid wedding
here,

in luxurious Beverly Hills.

I believe the perfect couple
deserves the perfect wedding,

so, to enter this year's
Valentine's Day contest,

write to me with your answer
to this question,

"How is your love perfect?"

I hope to see you
in Beverly Hills.

How is their love perfect?

Hey!

Hi! Sorry we're late.

We're just happy you're here.

All right, say "cheese!"

Cheese!

Come on in.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Listen.
Do you think we could talk?

- Talk?
- Yeah. You know.

Talk... an exchange of words.

Some people call it
a conversation?

Talk about what?

Molly, this is just
the beginning.

We're going to be seeing
lots of each other...

holidays, birthdays,

babies.

Babies! Right!

I totally forgot about babies.

I can't wait to be an auntie.

We used to be best friends.

I think it would be good
if we could clear the air.

You know, I have something...

in the oven.

So, ho... just one second.

Good, these are ready.

That's not burning your hands?

Molly.

You're pretending
to bake cookies

to avoid talking to me.

Listen.

I appreciate the olive branch,
okay?

But I just don't think
I'm quite there yet.

Maybe one day I will be,

but "friends"

is a title that's earned,
it's not just declared.

I appreciate your honesty.

But, for the sake
of Sophia and Jordan,

and the fact

that we're gonna be seeing
a lot more of each other,

I'm willing to call a truce.

Fair enough. Truce.

Truce.

Molly showed me
pictures of the proposal.

Were you excited?

Yes.

I was starting to worry
he'd never propose.

I had to wait
till you finished grad school.

And then I had to save up
for that ring.

Do you have a date set yet?

No, we haven't really
talked about that yet.

I was kind of thinking
our anniversary.

A whole year?

I mean, weddings take time
to plan, right?

What about a summer wedding?

I mean, we'll talk about it.

We have a lot of details
to discuss.

I'm here for you guys
every step of the way.

In fact, I've already contacted
a few venues for quotes,

I'm gonna see one this weekend.

Which one?

The Hughes Freighthouse.

The Freighthouse is nice.

You know, one of my best friends
from high school

is the GM there.

I'm sure that we could
get a deal, if I asked him.

No, I can handle it.

First, I just sort of want
to make sure

that the space
is what I'm going for, you know?

What you're going for?

No, I meant, what...
what we're going for.

Well, look,
if Cory knows someone there,

he should go with you.

Help you out.

Right.

Cory's idea of a wedding

is a six-pack and a barbecue.

I'm serious.

It'd be good
to have his perspective.

Cory, what do you say?

Whatever you guys need.

Then it's set.

You can help Molly
with the venue.

Welcome aboard.

Morning.

Hey.

Listen, you really didn't
have to come here for this.

I'm just going in
for a quick look.

There's no reason why you need
to do this on your own.

It's just I've seen
so many weddings

from behind my camera,

I kind of know what works
and what doesn't.

And what,
in your professional opinion,

makes a wedding work?

Well, first off,
it needs to be romantic.

Grand entrance,
all eyes on them.

Classy, with dramatic lighting,

because, most of all,
it needs to photograph well.

I will try to keep
all of that in mind.

Great.

Yeah, there's no need
for Sophia or Jordan to be here.

Why not?
I think it looks nice.

No, it's a perfectly
lovely space.

Just not
for my sister's wedding.

So what did you have in mind?

Because I know Jordan and Sophia
just want a venue

they can host all of
their friends and their family.

I appreciate your opinion,
I really do,

but there's a lot
you don't know about weddings.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Like what?

Like, they're expensive
and complicated

and have a million moving parts.

And here I thought
a wedding was just all about

two people in love
committing to each other.

See? There's a lot
you don't know.

Hang on one second.

Excuse me.

Hello?

Hi. Is this Sophia Machardy?

No, it's her sister, Molly.

May I ask who's calling?

This is Terrence Roquefort.

Wait, Terrence Roquefort,

as in wedding planner
to the stars?

That's me.

I'm calling about

the Beverly Hills wedding
sweepstakes.

I was very moved
by Sophia's essay.

In full disclosure,
I actually wrote that essay.

I'm helping my sister
plan her wedding.

Well, then I was very moved
by your essay.

It was so heartfelt
and thoughtful.

And... I chose it.

Wait.

Hold on!
What are you saying?

I mean, you just won your sister

an all-expense-paid

Beverly Hills wedding
on Valentine's Day.

Are you kidding?

I actually won
the Beverly Hills Wedding?

I mean, Sophia...

Sophia actually won
the Beverly Hills Wedding?

I'm sorry,
I don't mean to be rude,

but is there a catch?

No catch.

This is a contest
I host every year.

I love doing it.

The vendors love it.

It drives traffic to my website,

where I blog about the couple
and the wedding planning.

As long as you all are okay

with us taking some pictures
and video of your experiences,

it will work out well
for everyone.

But remember,

Valentine's Day
is just around the corner.

What is going on?

- Sophia...
- Hey.

I have
the most unbelievable news.

It's unbelievable, all right.

How would you feel
about having your wedding

in Beverly Hills?

Yeah, if we're gonna go big,

let's just rent the Taj Majal.

I'm serious.

You guys won
the Beverly Hills wedding.

Wait. What? Slow down.
What are you talking about?

Okay, remember when we discussed

entering you into
some wedding giveaways?

- Yeah.
- No.

Well, I mentioned it to Sophia,
so... anyway.

So there was this one

that really reminded me
of those old movies

that you and I used to watch
with Mom,

so I entered it,

and you guys won

an all-expenses-paid wedding
in Beverly Hills.

What? No way.

Yes. Everything's paid for.

The food, the catering,
the venue, the cake...

like, everything...

paid for and planned

by celebrity wedding planner
Terrence Roquefort.

Why don't you tell them
the catch?

Well, it's not really
a "catch," per se,

it's, like, the wedding
might happen a little sooner

than we might like.

How soon?

Valentine's Day, you know.

That's in six weeks.

We can't do six weeks.

Well, why not?

Honey, this could be
a good thing.

Plus, we wouldn't have to spend
a whole year planning,

and it's free!

Yeah, it's free,

and I've seen photos
of this guy's weddings,

and they are
a fairy tale come true.

Yeah, it sounds like
a fairy tale, all right.

Plus,

we'd get a trip
to Beverly Hills to plan it.

I don't know.

Come on.

You two have
the best relationship

I've ever seen.

Don't you think you also deserve
the best wedding?

It sounds amazing.

But...

Maybe we should
talk this over first.

Yeah, yeah, of course.

You two just talk it out,
do your thing.

I'm gonna...

be right over there,
not interfering.

Okay.

So...

what do you think?

I think it sounds crazy.

Okay, but it also
sounds exciting,

and we could finally

save some money towards
a house of our own.

Yeah, that's... that's true.

But, I mean, six weeks
isn't a lot of time.

Jordan, I am ready
to marry you now, okay?

Besides, for me,
it's not about the wedding,

it's about the marriage.

I agree, I just don't understand

how she saw
"Beverly Hills Wedding,"

and she thought,
"Oh, Sophia."

She was just being thoughtful.

Okay.

I am happy to do
whatever you want,

but...

Molly tends to get carried away
with her role as big sister,

and you tend to let her.

I just want to make sure
that this is our wedding.

Of course, honey.

I know you're excited, but...

Oh, no, this is not about me.

This is about Jordan and Sophia.

But you didn't even tell them
you entered the contest.

Well, because I know
what my sister wants.

Jordan and Sophia
love the family farm.

They love Hughes.

They're gonna want
to get married here.

It's their home.

Well, let's just see
what they have to say.

Okay.

So?

So we talked it over...

Yeah, and?

And...

we say yes.

- Yes?
- Let's do it.

We're doing this?

Yeah.

We're having
a Beverly Hills wedding!

Thanks, Molly.

Thanks so much
for coming to see me off.

I am so jealous.

I cannot wait to hear
all about Beverly Hills.

I know. I'm so excited.

I've never been,

but I know my sister and I
are gonna have the best time.

Awesome.

And the greatest part?

Now that Terrence
is organizing the wedding...

You don't have to see Cory.

Exactly.

Who's that?

Cory.

Morning, ladies.

What are you doing here?

Hi.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to take you
to the airport.

No, my dad is taking me.

I thought I'd save him a trip.

I'm heading that way,
too, right?

What do you mean?

You didn't read the fine print.

See, you won a trip
to plan the wedding

for the bride, the groom,
the maid of honor, and...

...The best man.

Yeah.

Have fun!

Hey.

I know how awkward it is for you
to be around Cory,

but it's only fair,

since you're here for me,
that Cory's here for Jordan.

Are you gonna be okay with that?

Of course.
Are you kidding?

I'm fine.

Okay, I'm working on being fine.

This weekend is about
you and Jordan, okay?

Cory and I are good.

Now we're gonna be in-laws.

In-laws always find
a way to get along, right?

Okay, so,

I think a driver
is supposed to meet us.

Okay.

Wait. Is that limo for us?

Molly,
you're the best sister ever!

Thank you.

It's so fancy.

After you guys.

Thank you!

They're spoiling us.

Free champagne!

It just keeps going in here.

This is so cool.

I can't believe
we're on Rodeo Drive.

Look at this carpet.

I feel like a movie star!

Welcome!

I am Terrence Roquefort.

This is my assistant, Kendall.

You must be
the beautiful bride, Sophia...

And you must be Molly,
the maid of honor.

We all really loved
your essay, Molly.

It was quite inspiring.

Thanks.

What did you write
in that essay?

Nothing that's not true,
I promise.

I trust things have been
satisfactory so far?

Yeah, everything's been great.

This is amazing.
Thank you so much.

And who are
your charming young men?

That is the groom
and I'm the best man.

Straight out of central casting.

More like
"straight out of Oregon."

Yes, you are, and I love it.

Welcome to the Clearmont.
Let me show you around.

This hotel is a local treasure.

If you ask me,

Beverly Hills would be
nothing without it.

Rumor has it,

Bogey and Bacall
had their first kiss

in this very lobby.

- Seriously?
- That table...

Garbo's favorite.

She and Fred Astaire
would play gin rummy right there

every other Thursday,

from what I hear.

Isn't this place amazing?

Yeah, it is.

Hey, is there a reason
why you keep filming us?

It's for
our social media outlets.

Terrence is an influencer.

And he has
some pretty big numbers,

so the vendors like to see
as much footage as possible.

It's how Terrence offsets
the cost of the wedding.

My brother and I
aren't big on social media,

so maybe you could just
focus more on the ladies?

I'm just doing my job.

All part of the package.

What "package"?

Molly?

Did you know they'd be putting
video and pictures of us online?

It was mentioned.

Don't worry.
You'll get used to it.

It will be excellent exposure
for all of you.

I wouldn't be surprised

if your farm
had its best season yet.

Come on, honey.
Let's focus on the positives,

like how beautiful
and romantic this place is.

Next, we're heading
to the Grand Ballroom,

where the wedding
will take place.

This way.

Yes!

Now, this
is what I'm talkin' about.

What do you think?

This is amazing!

It's no Freighthouse,
but it's not bad, I guess.

We don't know enough people
to fill this huge ballroom.

Well, there are many ways
to fill an empty space...

flowers, decorations...

She's right.

This is merely the canvas,
now we begin the painting.

It's all about design.

Seems kind of overboard.

I'll take that as a compliment.

We want to show the vendors,

who are providing
many services for free,

in the best possible light.

In other words,
it's all about the photo ops.

Totally get it.

Precisely.

The most important question,

I've learned
over my years of experience,

is,

what does the bride think?

I think
it's the most perfect place

for a wedding reception.

Wonderful!
That's all I need to hear.

Is that a problem?

I guess I just always pictured
our wedding

at a church,

or maybe an outdoor chapel,

with our pastor
leading the ceremony.

Well, invite him
to Beverly Hills!

This space will be transformed

into everything
you could ever imagine.

I'm sure
it's all gonna be great.

Jordan, let me give you
some... Groomology 101, hmm?

Please,

place your hand on Sophia's.

That, young man,

is the last upper hand
you'll ever have.

You will fall in love
with the venue, I promise.

Trust him, Jordan.

This is not
his first "ro-day-o."

First "Rodeo," hilarious!

Kendall, write that one down.
I'm using it.

Do you think Jordan is fine
with this place for the wedding?

This place must cost a fortune
to rent for the day,

so, yeah, he'll be fine with it.

If you say so.

And look at Sophia,
she's having a wonderful time.

Okay, everyone.

Let's give you
some time to settle in.

We can regroup a little later.

You're gonna love your rooms.

Allow me to show you the way.

Bye, boys.

Hey.

Looks like Sophia likes it.

What?

Look at the bed!

Look at the swan!

Look at this whole room!

Okay, this bathroom is huge!

I'm more impressed
with this view.

Smile.

Cute.

Isn't Beverly Hills everything
you thought it would be?

Well, it definitely
hasn't disappointed.

I think it's all very romantic.

Yeah, for you maybe.

I don't know,

I'm pretty sure I caught
you and Cory having a moment.

I'm pretty sure you caught me
giving him the side-eye.

I'll be honest...

...today was fun.

The four of us
hanging out again.

Felt like old times.

Okay, this pillow

feels like my head
is floating on a silk cloud.

Okay, well,
don't get too comfortable.

We gotta go.
Terrence is waiting.

All right.

Think

elaborate... opulent.

This is Beverly Hills
on Valentine's Day.

It should be
a fairytale come true.

This is the most important day
of your lives.

You have
such a beautiful love story.

Your wedding needs
to display that

to everyone you know.

I mean, look at you two!

You've known each other
your entire lives

and you still can't
keep your eyes off each other.

Before I forget...

we have
a little something for you.

Token of our appreciation.

You shouldn't have.

It's blueberry jam
from our family's farm.

My brother made it himself.

Thank you.

Very much.

Kendall.

Okay! Let's get
down to business, shall we?

A dream wedding
all starts with...?

The invitations.

An important, yet often
overlooked ingredient,

the invitations set the tone
for your entire marriage,

so let's make them special.

Also, we only have five weeks
until the big day,

so we need to send
invitations out A.S.A.P.

Why don't we just
send out e-vites?

That was very funny.

Let me show you
what I have in mind.

Kendall?

Yeah.

I've taken the liberty

to select a few of my favorites.

Kendall?

Exquisite, are they not?

The lace overlay is gorgeous.

Is there something more...

simple?

Well, of course,
we could do "more simple,"

but the invitations
tell your guests

what's in store,

and this won't be
a "more simple" wedding.

What does our bride-to-be think?

I guess
I also like the lace one best.

Great! It's settled.

The overlay conveys
timeless romance.

I'll choose an appropriate font.

Kendall will work up
a mock version

and text it to you
for final approval.

Did you bring the guest list,
like I asked?

Yes. I have it,

I just have to get back
to the hotel to email it to you.

Thank you.

We didn't see the guest list.

- You haven't?
- No.

I showed you, didn't I?

I'm so sorry.

I guess I got
so excited I forgot.

It's okay.
You were just trying to help.

Yeah.

No worries, you can take a look
at the guest list later tonight.

And also,

it would be nice
to stylistically match

some of
the wedding accoutrements

with your wedding bands.

We don't have the rings yet.

We weren't planning on
getting married this soon.

The wedding rings
are included in the package.

I'll take you to my jeweler.

Now, we should utilize our time
on other important matters...

like, your nails.

Our nails?

Now this is the life.

It's important
to make time for yourself

when planning a wedding.

You're a photographer, right?

What's your genre?

Well, my real passion
is portraiture.

I aim to tell whole stories
with just tiny moments.

But my bread-and-butter

is wedding
and event photography.

Well, that seems to make sense.

My real work
is a little less posed.

I planned a wedding

for the curator
at the Merribelle Rue Gallery.

Really?

Yeah, very chic.

Everyone wore white,

but the bride wore bright red.

That sounds dramatic.

I've planned weddings
for everyone in L.A.

Got my start running events
at the Palomonte Villa.

That's where I made
all my contacts.

What drew you to weddings?

Marriage
is very important to me.

Special occasions like weddings
and Valentine's Day

create memories
that couples can draw from

in hard times.

I want to support that.

That's beautiful.

Send me your portrait portfolio.

I'd love to see your work.

I would really love
your feedback.

Thank you.

And what about you, Sophia?

I'm a teacher, first grade.

That sounds rewarding.

Most of the time.

If I come home
without fingerpaint in my hair,

I consider that
a successful day.

Well, if anyone needs pampering,

it's you.

Why don't you girls
enjoy this time to relax?

Tomorrow, we hit
the ground running

with all things wedding.

Okay.

I can't help but think
this whole time,

I wish Mom was here.

Yeah. Me too.

Although, her feet
were super-ticklish,

and she would not have
been able to handle this.

I don't remember that.

Yeah.

That's hilarious.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

You're welcome.

This feels more like
the honeymoon than the planning.

Except for you
sitting next to me.

Yeah, it's nice hanging out.

I think the last time
we traveled together

was that trip
down to Sacramento...

Blazers/Kings game.

You realize
that was five years ago?

What?

That's way too long.

Well, it's my fault, really.

I've been traveling
so much lately.

You know, I'm really sorry

for leaving all the hard work
of the farm to you.

I never resented you
for choosing something else.

Molly, on the other hand...

Yeah, well, speaking of Molly,

can I just ask you something,
just between the two of us?

No. Is this
the conversation

where you tell me that,
while she can be difficult,

you still have feelings for her?

No!

No. That's not what
I was gonna say at all.

Then what is it?

What I was going to say is,

this is your wedding.

Are you sure that you're fine

with all this
Beverly Hills stuff?

I am a bit uncomfortable

with all of the people
opening our doors

and Kendall taking video of us.

And the opulence, I mean...

did... did you see
those wedding invitations?

Can you imagine "Big Donnie"
from back home

receiving that in the mail?

He would have a field day.

I'm just worried

you're in a little
over your head on this one.

You know me... looking out
for my little brother.

I appreciate it.

But as long as
it makes Sophia happy

and it helps us
save money for a house,

I think we should just have fun
and go with it.

That is all I needed to hear.

Here comes the girls.

- Hey!
- Hey.

What are you guys talking about?

I was just telling Jordan

that James Dean

once stubbed his toe
on this very chair.

Really?

No, not really.

Speaking of toes...

what do you guys think?

I like the red.

No, no, no.
That's not "red".

That's "Vermillion Vanity."

Or... red.

Hey, Molly,
would you and Cory be okay

without us tonight?

I wanted to take Sophia
on a date night.

Yeah, yeah, for sure.

You guys should absolutely spend
some quality time together.

But you know,

don't feel like
you have to hang out with me.

I don't.

But thank you.
Same with you.

But you know, if you did
want to do something,

maybe we could?

Great.

Meet me in the lobby at 6:00?

Perfect...

Perfect.

Hey, Mol!

Hey, Chloe, would you
do me a huge favor?

I left my portfolio by my desk.

Would you mind
overnighting it to me?

Yeah!

Terrence offered
to have a look at it.

Okay, give me one second.

I will go and find it.

He knows everybody in L.A.

He actually planned
the wedding for the curator

at the Merribelle Rue Gallery.

Okay, that is a big deal.

I know.

This could be the connection
that changes everything for me.

Yeah.

You look great.

Thanks.

So...

where are we going?

How would you like

to be treated
to the best food in town?

I would love that.

- Okay, there's just one issue.
- What's that?

I know that you're used
to limos now,

and I've arranged
for alternate transportation.

I hope you don't mind.

I think I can manage.

Okay.

That... was the best!

That looks so good!

Then that is what we will order.

Can we get two strawberry-
chocolate crepes, please?

Yes!

Thanks.

You know, I've often wondered
why people would live down here.

Now I get it.

Yeah, it's quite the scene.

How'd you know about this place?

I've got my connections.

Please.

Okay. It was one of
Kendall's recommendations.

I gotta say, it's really...

it's nice seeing you
in a new environment.

You have a glow about you.

- Crepes are ready.
- Okay.

This is so good.

Yeah. Kendall certainly
knows the best spots.

So, Molly...

do you see yourself living
somewhere other than Hughes?

I don't know.

Well, why not?
What's holding you back?

Friends, family...

Sophia, mainly.

You know, I promised my mom
I'd look out for her.

She's a grown woman now,
and she has Jordan to rely on.

And, if I remember correctly,

you did make another promise,

regarding your own dreams.

I'm doing the best I can.

But my family is my priority.

Yeah, I get that,
but look at my family.

We all had
very different dreams,

we still love each other
more than anything.

Was it hard to leave?

Yeah, it was.

But then I realized
that leaving didn't mean

that I couldn't still love

the people
that I care about the most

from wherever I was.

And that included you, Molly.

There were so many times

over the years
that I wanted to call you

and share with you
where I'd been that day,

or where I wanted to go next.

Seriously?

Yeah.

I'm really sorry
for hurting you.

I knew that I had to leave

and I didn't handle things
very maturely.

You deserved
more than a phone call.

Yeah, I... I did.

You know, it was...
it was not easy for me,

being just a few years
after my mom passed.

I mean, you were my best friend.

And I always understood
why you had to leave, but...

I just never understood
why you didn't ask me to go.

I knew that you felt
this sense of responsibility

towards your sister,

and I was...

afraid, that if I asked you,
you'd just say no, so...

...I never asked.

I'm deeply sorry.

Well, thank you
for telling me all this.

It would've been nice
to have talked back then,

but I'm...

I'm glad
we're finally doing it now.

Me too.

I know the wedding's
gonna make us family,

but I'm still hoping
that we can also be friends.

Me too.

"This is the last upper-hand
you will ever have."

Oh, you wish!

Okay. Here's a question.

Do you think there's a limit

to how many of these
we can fit in our basket?

Because I am definitely
gonna need more.

Yeah, you read my mind.

You're up early!

I already walked three miles,
took a ton of pictures,

and I got my portfolio.

I really hope
Terrence likes these.

Getting a show

at the right gallery
can kickstart my entire career.

Molly, that's so fantastic.

So... what about you and Cory?

Are you two officially
on good terms?

We're heading
in that direction, yeah.

Good.

You two had something
really special back then.

Sophia, it's not gonna happen.

We're in-laws...

maybe friends.

You're a lot of things.

Okay, let's just focus
on you and Jordan, all right?

So, I've been brainstorming
about the centerpieces

and I'm...

Hold on.
You look so gorgeous right now.

Nice.

I'm thinking
minimal, structural...

maybe air plants?

Love it!

What do you guys think?

I don't actually know
what an air plant is.

Aren't they just plants
that don't need much water?

I believe the real name
is Tillandsia.

The best man knows flowers.

They are gorgeous
and very hip right now.

How about a Japanese motif?

Cherry blossoms.

You could accentuate
with bracken and peonies.

My mother loved peonies.

As do I. Behind the altar?

Maybe flanked
by crystal chandeliers?

Love it! Now you're thinking
Beverly Hills, my dear.

I have a request.

Daisies.

Daisies?

You know, good old-fashioned
daisies that come from the dirt,

you have to water them...

those daisies.

I'm afraid they'll clash
with the motif we are going for.

Yeah, daisies are all wrong.

I haven't
asked for anything yet,

and I want you
to be able to do your jobs,

but it would really mean a lot
to Sophia and I

if we could have daisies.

They're our flowers.

Jordan, we can see
their ideas first,

and see what they're like,

and then we can decide?

Okay.

Let's talk centerpieces.

To me, this is
a very important detail

that often gets overlooked.

I'm thinking something
robust and elegant,

that makes a statement...

a high, tiered crystal vase.

We could also add
dangling tea lights.

Well, maybe each table

can have a slightly different
floral theme?

That way we can incorporate

flowers that have
a personal meaning,

like daisies or peonies...

Carnations?

Daisies and carnations?

Who likes carnations?

Well, I do.

Well, I-I did,
but that was a long time ago.

Anyway, you don't
have to use them,

this is not my wedding.

Could've fooled me.

Okay, great!
We won't. Moving along.

Let's have the bride and groom

look at what I had in mind
for the altar.

After, we'll choose bouquets
and boutonnieres.

How did you know
about air plants?

I'm a botanist.

I looked it up on my phone
while she was talking.

Well played.

You used to love carnations.
Remember?

I asked you to prom,

and I brought you
that big bouquet of carnations?

Yeah. No, I still think
they're beautiful.

They just come
with a certain memory

that I try not
to think about anymore.

Yeah, I see.

They do have daisies here.

Hey, you guys should
use daisies for the boutonnieres

and then maybe
Terrence can handle the decor.

Okay. And then I will
do peonies for the altar.

Did we agree to that?

Yeah, just a second ago.

We have a lot of work to do.

Kendall is going
to take you back to the hotel,

where we have our scheduled
champagne tasting.

This might actually be fun.

Yeah.

I agree.

Kendall, I hope you don't think

that we're giving you
a hard time.

It's nothing personal.

Just all this stuff

is a little
out of our comfort zone.

I understand.

And I appreciate
you saying that.

By the way,
I am originally from Eugene.

What?

You're from Oregon?

"Go, Ducks."

This calls for a toast!

If only we had some champagne.

No.

Hey!

Okay, let's get started.

When tasting,

don't be fooled
by a perfumey smell.

Good champagne

should smell more like
pie spices.

It should feel soft and mellow

with tightly knit bubbles
in your mouth.

We're also offering an exclusive

Dom Perignon Rosé Champagne
for Valentine's Day.

Can I try that pink one?

There you go.

Thank you.

All right.

This one is amazing.

Jordan, you gotta try this one.

All of these kind of taste
the same to me.

I don't know,
maybe I'm not a champagne guy.

What if we had beer?

You know,
maybe a decent I.P.A.?

Jordan, this is a wedding,
not a frat party.

Hey, you know what?

I think I'm gonna just
head back to the room.

Jordan, you know, you can
choose another champagne,

if you like.

No, no, it's... you know what?
It's been a long day, so.

I'll go back with you.

Yeah?

Are you okay?

I don't know, I guess
you could say I'm concerned.

About what?

Whether I'm marrying you,
or you and Molly.

She seems to be making
all the decisions.

She's only trying to help.

I know, but she's always
trying to help.

I know.

Let's talk about it more
upstairs.

Okay.

L.A. seems to suit you.

Yeah, I just haven't had
a vacation in so long,

so I'm trying to soak up
every minute.

Meanwhile, I feel like

I've just been on
one long vacation.

You done with adventure?

No way.

But taking tourists out
on sunset cruises

stops feeling like
an adventure after a while.

I need to get back
to what I love about sailing.

I'm actually
going through the same thing

with my photography.

I've actually started
focusing on portraits again.

Glad to hear that.

Yeah.

I just love
the old black-and-white photos.

They have such character
and glamour.

You know, the lighting,
the composition...

It was true artistry back then.

They didn't have
all these digital filters.

You know?

You could do that.

You're just as good.

I don't know.

Maybe I was born
in the wrong era.

Yeah, well,
I happen to be very thankful

that you were born in this era.

I still have

that picture that you took
of my parents in the farm

that you gave to me.

It's hanging in my living room.

Probably your biggest fan.

You are probably my only fan.

No way, that's not true.

You've taken pictures

of almost every single
married couple in Hughes,

and I know
that they are all raving fans.

I just thought, by now,

I'd at least be
selling my photos online.

I guess weddings are easier.

Don't take this the wrong way,

but if you're not totally happy
with what you're doing,

maybe it's time to pursue

other opportunities
outside of Hughes.

You can do anything
that you put your mind to.

You've always had the talent

and now you have
the experience to back it up.

Thanks, Cory.

It's nice, after all this time,
you...

you still believe in me.

Always have, and I always will.

So you don't have
your dress yet,

but today we'll fix that.

Any ideas of what you like?

Well, as a little girl,

Molly used to dress me up
in our mom's wedding gown,

and I loved that dress.

It was simple...

flowy,
with a sweetheart neckline,

and an empire waist.

Well, I-I'm sure she won't mind

if you wore something
a little more modern.

Where is your mother?

She passed away.

I'm so sorry.

My mother wasn't there
for my wedding either.

It wasn't easy,

but we did walk in
to her favorite song...

"What a Wonderful World."

Now, this is a lovely dress.

I don't know.

Well, let's try it on.

And Molly,
bridesmaid dresses for you.

Okay.

- Come on.
- Okay.

See how gorgeous this train is.

Sophia! Sophia!

I think this one
is absolutely gorgeous, right?

It's so beautiful, okay?

And it's only...
it's... yeah.

Don't pay attention
to the price.

I really like this one as well.

It is a showstopper.

The applique bodice,

the hand-cut roses
embroidered with tiny pearls.

I think I would prefer
something that I could move in.

It is my job

to see the big picture

and to make sure
all elements meld.

You're having
a Beverly Hills wedding!

You need a dress to match that.

Right, okay, but none of these
are like my mom's.

Sophia...

I have photographed
countless weddings

and this is, by far,

the most beautiful dress
I've ever seen,

and it's free!

Free!

How can we not
take advantage of that?

I mean, it is really pretty,
so it won't hurt to try.

Great!

I think
it's gonna be the winner.

- Me too.
- Here, let me take that.

You know, I never thought
that I'd be wearing a tux

to your wedding.

I figured, you know, a suit,
maybe, at the most.

This wedding has a lot
of I-never-thought-I'ds...

Like, I never thought

I'd see you and Molly
getting along again.

Me neither.

But spending all this time
with her, it's...

...it's actually,
it's kind of messing with me.

I'm finding it hard
to look at her and not see...

I don't know.

Not see what?

Not see the girl that
I was in love with for so long.

Well, she's been trying
to get over you

for a long time now.

Be careful.

Don't open that door again

unless you're sure
what you want.

Okay!

Are we good with these?

They're uncomfortable,

but, to me, a tux is a tux.

Great. Look, I know

you guys don't like
the whole camera thing,

but can we do a quick Boomerang?

If you can smile
and give each other a high-five,

that'd be great.

Ready?

Go.

Perfect.

Let's meet the ladies
for the cake tasting.

Okay. Here, I have

raspberry truffle,

salted caramel,

mocha cappuccino,

cherry liqueur,

hazelnut praline...

and tuxedo torte.

You're loving this, aren't you?

So are you.

I think the one thing
we had in common

was our sweet tooth.

Hey, if he brings out
a double-chocolate fudge,

you better pass it over
to Molly here.

Yep!

Really?

These are all
so delicious, right?

I kind of thought
we'd just choose

between chocolate or vanilla.

I'm sorry.

Jordan has the palate

of a six-year-old
on his birthday.

Yes, I'm beginning to notice
just how unrefined I really am.

Jordan,

why don't you choose something
that you can't get in Hughes?

Or you could just go
with the traditional route...

blueberry cobbler.

A cobbler is too pedestrian.

We can do down-to-earth,
so long as it isn't ordinary.

If you insist on blueberries,

we could do
a signature blueberry cocktail

to pair with the dessert.

And not do a wedding cake?

We don't have to do
a normal cake

in the traditional sense.

Who eats cake anymore?
Too many carbs!

Okay, but I always wanted
a normal wedding cake.

Me too.

I-I happen to like carbs.

I have a thought...

spun-sugar leaves
and fondant peach blossoms.

Maybe some lace points
and icing ribbons?

Maybe it's still
a tad pedestrian?

You're right.

Think bigger.

Maybe we could do a gold dusting
with a smattering of pearls?

I-I personally love
a smattering of pearls.

Guys, be serious! Please.

Is there anything here
that you like?

The salted caramel
seems the most normal.

Sophia?

Yeah, let's go
with the salted caramel.

You can get fancy with it
as long as it's cake,

with...

the little bride-and-groom
figurines on top.

Right.

Figurines?

Deal!

And since we're going cake,
we might as well go big.

Let's do six tiers.

This cake better be good,

'cause we're going to be
eating leftovers

for a long time.

Okay, what's next?

I need to steal
the bride and the groom away

to show them some rings.

Meanwhile, the driver
will take you to the hotel,

where you can work
on the seating charts.

But I'd really love
to see the rings.

You know...

I don't think I could
head back to Oregon

without seeing the ocean.

You wanna...

come with me?

I think that's a great idea.

Yeah?

Okay, yeah, sure.

Can't wait to see myself
in a gallery one day.

It's so beautiful.

And the view's not bad either.

I see you're still dorky-smooth?

Dorky-smooth?

Is that a good thing?

Well, yeah, because if
you were just smooth-smooth,

I'd be suspicious.

Okay, then, thanks, I guess.

Have you ever heard
of the green flash?

Okay, so,
if conditions are just right,

there's a green flash
that happens

at the exact moment
that the sun disappears.

You're making that up.

No, it's true.
I saw it once.

I was sailing off the Carolinas.

Just me, two crewmates,

and water
as far as the eye can see.

Do you think
we'll see it tonight?

We'll have to wait and see.

It's like the sun
is kissing the ocean goodnight.

Seating chart.

I forgot
about the seating chart.

I gotta get back to the hotel.
Sophia's counting on me, okay?

This is where Terrence lives?

This is Terrence's house?
It's like a mansion.

It is a mansion.

Business must be good!

So did you guys find
a set of rings you liked?

We did, actually.

We just have to get them sized.

Awesome.

Welcome to our home.

Come in.
I'm Gary, Terrence's husband.

Terrence is just getting
things set up with the caterer.

You have a beautiful home.

Well, thank you.

Groom or best man?

Best man. I'm Cory.

And this is Jordan,
his future bride, Sophia,

and the maid of honor, Molly.

Yes.

The one who wrote the essay.

We need to read this essay.

You should!

Terrence was all set to go
with another couple,

and then Molly swooped in
last-minute,

and convinced him otherwise.

Right this way.

- Hi, Kendall.
- Hey, Gary.

Hey, guys.

Are you ready to get started
on your first dance lesson?

Dance... lesson?

Well, yeah, sometimes,
the first dance

is even more stressful
than the wedding itself,

so I'm giving you all lessons.

Kendall was once

a nationally-ranked
ballroom dancer.

- Hey, everybody.
- Hey.

We'll get started
with a basic waltz.

No. We're not doing a waltz
for our first dance.

Jordan, you can't just do
the Hokey Pokey

and the Chicken Dance all night.

This is a wedding.
Waltzing is beautiful.

Jordan, ballroom

is an expression of partnership
with your love.

Yeah, come on, honey.

Express our partnership with me.

No way.

You know what?

I'll do it.

Ms. Machardy,

may I have this dance?

You may.

Wait, seriously?

Okay, excellent, excellent,
but not so fast.

Before we partner,

you need to learn
some basic footwork.

Come on, if I can do this,
you can do this.

All right.

Great.

So, chins up.

Shoulders rolled back
and relaxed.

We start with our left side,
and forward... side, close.

Back, side close.

Forward, side close.

Back, side close.
Good! Good!

It's really nice
that you're doing this for them.

Well, if I bring
the vendors business,

they bring me discounts.

Believe it or not,
this saves us money.

You used to do it

because you enjoyed
making people happy.

Now you may join your partners.

- Are we doing this?
- Okay, here we go.

- Ready?
- You're doing it.

- You got it, you got it.
- That's it.

- There you go.
- That's good, that's good.

Okay, not bad.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Can you excuse me?

- Terrence, hi.
- Hi!

I'm wondering
if you have a moment.

I brought my portfolio.

Yes!
Now is the perfect time.

Follow me.

There is a great deal
of tenderness in these photos.

Thanks.

I try to capture
a subject's inner life,

not just their photo.

These photographs are stunning.

I would love
to pass your portfolio around.

Thank you
for sharing it with me.

No, thank you for everything
you're doing for us.

We're really grateful.

It's your
last night in Beverly Hills.

I hope you've enjoyed your time.

Well, now that you've worked up
a good appetite,

I've narrowed down
a few food options

with the wedding caterer,

and we get the delightful job
of tasting them.

"Seaweed bonbon."

Adding the word "bonbon"

does not make seaweed
taste any better.

I think they look
pretty good, actually.

I'm not sure
what this one's supposed to be.

That is the "Moqueca".

I hope that's a fancy word
for "chicken noodle soup."

It's a Brazilian cold fish stew.

Justin and Hailey had Moqueca
at their wedding.

Everyone raved.

What's the general consensus?

Terrence, look.
This is our wedding day.

Shouldn't we be serving
something we actually like?

I mean, I don't think
any of these dishes

are right for us.

Yeah, our family's
more into comfort food.

Yeah, our family isn't gonna
want to eat this.

Heck, I don't even
want to eat any of this.

Jordan, Terrence went
to a lot of trouble

to put this on for us.

You don't have to be rude.

Try to understand.

This is modern cuisine.

Well, if this is modern cuisine,

then I'm sorry,

but I don't want
to understand it.

I see.

Well...

I have to...

make a phone call.

Excuse me.

Jordan.

What?

Please have an open mind.

This is a wonderful opportunity.

I don't see Sophia complaining.

No, I'm with Jordan on this one.

This really isn't us.

And it would have been nice
to be consulted first.

We should go.

I saw that coming a mile away.

Yeah, because you instigated it,

always with
your little comments.

You think this was my doing?

You've been trying to turn them
into something that they're not.

Our job should be

to give Jordan and Sophia
the wedding that they want.

How do you know what they want?

You left.

You just swoop into town
every now and then

whenever you feel like it.

I've been here the whole time.

Maybe that's the problem.

Maybe you've been so worried
about Sophia's life,

that you forgot about your own.

I made a promise to my mother.

To look after her.
I know.

But you forgot
about the second part.

Follow your own dreams,
not just manage hers.

And sometimes,
looking after someone means

letting them
be their own person.

Is that why you left me?

So you could be your own person?

Molly.

Is something wrong?

I've been trying to give
Jordan and Sophia

something
that I thought was ideal,

but the truth is,
this just isn't what they want.

Your work is lovely, Terrence.

It's just not them.

What should we do?

We have to call off
the Beverly Hills wedding.

I'm so sorry.

Well, maybe it's a good thing.

Those Hollywood weddings
never seem to last very long.

Elizabeth Taylor
was married eight times.

So was Mickey Rooney.

We did get

these very interesting
invitations in the mail.

Great.

Now we're gonna
have to call everyone.

Jordan's not happy.

Especially after seeing
those videos of us online.

What videos?

Are you okay?

So he stepped on your foot.
What's the big deal?

I'll ask him to take it down.

Don't worry, it's fine.

I know, he's just shy
about these things.

I think it's kinda cute!

And don't think
I didn't notice my eldest niece

dancing with
the other Cronin boy

in that video, hmm?

Well, I'm off to bed.

Nice having you girls home.

Goodnight, Aunt Bea.

Look...

whatever is going on
between you two

has to be worked out.

If your mother and I
ever had a disagreement,

she would put on a pot of tea

and tell me
that we couldn't go to bed

until we got things resolved.

You and Mom had disagreements?

Of course we did.

All relationships do,

no matter how solid they may be.

I never saw any.

That's because she didn't
allow issues to linger.

Communication and forgiveness...

that's what she taught me.

I'll make the tea.

I'm...

I'm really sorry

for forcing the Beverly Hills
wedding on you.

I just wanted the best.

Well, your intentions
were great,

and, for the most part,
I had fun.

Good.

I mean, you tried.

We'll figure something out.

If you still want me to,

I'm happy to help you plan
a beautiful wedding here.

I just want you to be happy.

Molly, I am happy.

You have sacrificed a lot
for me over the years.

Your photography career,

paying for my grad school,

but it's time
to focus more on yourself.

So are you saying
you don't need my help, or...?

Well, I didn't say that.

You are my maid of honor...

...not to mention my sister...

...and my best friend.

I'm always going to need you.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Come here.

Hi.

Hi...

I'm here to talk
to your brother,

if that's okay?

Yeah, right.
Of course.

I've come with a peace offering.

Well...

it's too thin
to be a bowl of Moqueca.

I-I... I love it.

I'm so sorry
for how I treated you in L.A.

It was really inconsiderate

and I promise to do better
from now on.

Get over here.

I could never stay mad at you.

Never say never.

And listen.

I'm sure my brother
would like to talk to you.

One thing at a time.

Yes, I would be happy
to share those with you.

No problem.

Same to you.

Honey, Jordan's blueberry jam
is delicious.

Kind of reminds you of home,
doesn't it?

Those wild blueberries in Maine.

These are lovely.

I may not be as good
of a photographer as you,

but I do know one thing.

What's that?

The lens doesn't lie
when it comes to love.

No, that's just the lighting.

Natural light can do wonders
for any subject.

I'm not talking
about the subject.

I'm talking about the person
who took the photo.

Hi, Terrence.

Hi, Molly!

I'm sorry to spring this
on you unannounced,

but I was wondering
if I could meet with you all.

I'm here in town.

You are?

Okay, do you want to meet
at my dad's house?

I can text you the address.

Perfect.

Okay. Great.

So,
to what do we owe the pleasure?

We have a wedding
to discuss, of course.

We do?

Please, have a seat.

I met my husband at a party
on Valentine's Day.

That day has always
been special to me,

and I wanted to make it special
for others as well,

but somewhere along the line,
I lost my way.

You helped me realize that.

A Beverly Hills wedding
can take place anywhere

and you have
the perfect location right here,

so...

if it's okay with you,

I will bring
Beverly Hills to you.

Yes! That would be amazing!

Sophia,
it all starts with your dress.

Your mother would be so proud

of the sweet, genuine woman
you are today.

You have to wear her dress.

If it needs some alterations,

I can take care of that for you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

No. Thank you.

Your blueberry jam
brought me back to my youth.

And as for you, Molly.

My friend
at the Merribelle Rue Gallery

would love to schedule a meeting

about showing your work.

After the wedding, of course.

Seriously?

A talent like yours is rare.

The whole world should see it.

Thank you, Terrence.

Okay! We only have four weeks
until Valentine's Day,

so there's no time to waste.

We have a Beverly Hills wedding
to throw... in Oregon!

Come on,
let's get planning, you guys.

Come on!

Hey.

Can we talk?

Talk?

Yeah, you know,
an exchange of words?

Some people call it
a conversation.

I've been thinking about
what you said,

and you were right.

I've been blaming you
for everything,

and I never acknowledged
my part in it,

and I just want to say

that I'm sorry.

I appreciate you saying that.

Now, we have a wedding to plan
and I need your help,

but it might mean us working
really closely, side-by-side.

I would like that...

very much.

Me too.

Before I get started,

I would like to say
a big "thank you" to Terrence.

In addition to planning
this lovely event,

he was kind enough
to share something with me.

These words are excerpts
from the essay

written by
the lovely Molly Machardy.

"The Perfect Love Story
of Jordan and Sophia."

"Some people see Valentine's Day

as the most romantic day
of the year,

but for Sophia and Jordan,

every day is Valentine's Day.

You may think that that means
that their love is perfect.

It is not."

"But it's something better...

it's real."

"Twenty years ago,

their story began
right here on this farm,

and, for most kids,

it would have ended
a week later,

but not for them.

Their epic journey of love

continued through the teen years
and on through college,

and up to the present.

Perfect love

is when two people don't
expect each other to be perfect,

but instead
they see each other perfectly.

It's when
they empower each other

to be their best selves

and to share a love...

unconditional,

and built on friendship
and respect."

"Perfect love is active
and renewed every single day.

It's not a destination,

but it's a journey...

a great, lifelong adventure."

I would love to invite Molly

to come up here
and read the rest.

"My mother used to tell
Sophia and I

that 'everybody makes mistakes
and nobody is perfect,

but we should still
love each other as if we were'."

Jordan and Sophia
are not perfect...

...but because
of the pure love they share,

they are perfect

for each other.

True love does exist,

and it's right here.

So, what made you read my essay?

I knew that someone who captures

such beautiful portraits
in photographs

must have made
a beautiful portrait in words.

Well, I have
a confession to make,

in addition to being friends,

I'm pretty sure
I'm falling in love with you

all over again.

"Pretty sure"?

Because I'm absolutely sure

that I'm already
in love with you.

Well, what's gonna happen
if I pursue this opportunity

in L.A.?

Well, I hear

that they've got really good
chocolate crepes there,

and I really like crepes.

I'm not letting us
get away from each other

or our dreams

ever again.

So we'll figure it out.

But together, this time.

Together.

That sounds perfect.
