Summary:

Laurel Couper and Clay Sheppard have just three weeks to plan their wedding that will take place at Elvis Presley’s celebrated Memphis home. However, when both sets of in-laws-to-be, each with vastly different personalities and ideas for the wedding, descend upon Memphis to “help” plan the nuptials, the bride and groom-to-be are pushed to the breaking point.

My Thoughts:

I am still so excited about this movie. Wedding at Graceland kicks off the June Weddings at Hallmark, and it’s the sequel to Christmas at Graceland.

I completely loved this movie. Wes Brown and Kellie Pickler are so great together as stars in this movie and playing a beautiful couple that has decided to get married. These two think it would be so easy, but then their parents come in, and that part is so funny.

Clay’s parents were so excited about Clay settling down finally with Laurel even though it’s a bit dicey between his mom and Laurel. Elizabeth Becka and Rob Moran play Clay’s parents, and I think they did an excellent job. Elizabeth’s character, especially with keeping the couple up with all the southern traditions before their wedding day and with how their wedding should be.

Laurel’s parents, well more of her dad, wasn’t all that thrilled with the idea and they came to help them plan it which lead to Laurel and Clay bringing in Clay’s parents. Now that both sets of parents, even though one is a stepmom, is a full house and leading both Clay and Laurel into a headache storm. David Keith and Nicole Stanton play Laurel’s dad, and stepmom, and they also did a great job and were so believable.

I’m so glad that Elizabeth and Nicole’s characters finally saw eye-to-eye and started listening to what the bride and groom wanted. I even loved the fact that they used the Major’s plan, after all, to get their wedding all nice and right. It was awesome to see the two sets of families working together.

The one part that I loved, even more, was when Laurel and Clay met Priscilla Presley. That was awesome, and I’m glad that she is part of the movie.
