The plot idea was fairly good, but it wasn't carried off very well.Jennifer Lowndes had more chemistry with Eddie's friend than with Christopher Russell. She is reserved and doesn't deliver much feeling unless you count her many sad looks throughout the story. Russell, likewise, comes through rather weakly.***SPOILER*** They did a pretty good job of misdirection with Eddie and Isabella, although if you watched Eddie closely, he never showed any affection for Isabella - it was always her. She even hung tightly to Eddie at the photo show, even though George was right next to her.I thought Brie's scene with Jared was weird where he actually gave her relationship advice about Eddie.I still enjoyed the story.

One of the many Hallmark movies that are produced for holiday viewing but this one is not worth your time.Brie, an advertising executive, lands her dream assignment organizing the perfect Christmas wedding for a fashion magazine. If she succeeds, she will make partner at her firm. The only catch is that she unknowingly has been paired up with a certain high powered fashion photographer who just happens to be her estranged ex- boyfriend. Stars Jessica Lowndes and Christopher RussellThe two nice looking leads however in this film they don't have chemistry and your your not rooting for them. One of the main reasons you are not rooting for is because the plot is weak. There also enough plot holes to drive a truck through. This film is family safe but EVERYONE who watches this will be bored.

After a marathon of hallmark Christmas movies, which started so early in June, this one was by far the best among them, so far. the fresh faces was a nice change and the chemistry wasn't bad. Like every Hallmark Christmas movie this one have the romance along with the Christmas spirit, but unlike the other movies i didn't roll my eyes at the ending scene, which i've been doing a lot lately after watching every hallmark Christmas movie for this year. The story line was nice but predictable, the acting was good and the the proposal scene was perfect because it didn't end with a long kiss while a bunch of people cheering and give the happy couple a big applause. I watched it once and i don't feel like watching it again.

I watch a lot of the holiday movies (Hallmark, especially) and this one just wasn't up to their usual pinnacle. It had some really, really BAD moments....like, did he STEAL that bottle of champagne before they went on the carriage ride? No scene showing that he paid for it....AND, these people never communicated - not for seven years!!! Why would anyone think they'd start now? The actors did not create a feeling of love between themselves - they were like two people going in different directions - which is why they didn't get together in the FIRST PLACE - and guess what? NOTHING HAS CHANGED!I would not bother wasting my time on this one, as there are others out there much more in line with the Spirit of the Season, as well as making people believe in love and hope.
