PlotIn the affluent enclave of Newport, a glamorous socialite is preparing for her upcoming marriage to a polished but dull businessman. The preparations are interrupted by the unexpected arrival of her charming ex-husband, a successful musician who still harbors feelings for her and is eager to win her back. At the same time, a pair of tabloid reporters, sent to cover the high-profile wedding, arrive on the scene. Among them is a witty and cynical writer who soon becomes enchanted by the socialite’s spirited personality. The house fills with an air of festivity and tension as old flames, new suitors, and mischievous guests cross each other’s paths, adding layers of confusion and comedy.
As the weekend unfolds, the socialite finds herself torn between her fiancé’s steadiness, her ex-husband’s heartfelt overtures, and the fresh intrigue brought by the young reporter. Flirtations and misunderstandings abound, set to the backdrop of elegant parties and sparkling musical numbers. Each character grapples with their desires and insecurities while navigating the blurred lines between love, loyalty, and social expectations. With witty banter, lively songs, and luxurious settings, the story mixes romance and humor as the central characters question their true feelings on the eve of what should be a straightforward wedding celebration.
