I LET MY MOTHER:

PLAN OUR WEDDING.

YOU'RE GONNA

BE FINE.

HI, MOM.

[ALL CHEERING]

SURPRISE!

[CHEERING AND LAUGHING]

OH, WOW...

RICE-A-RONI?

YOUR DAD ATE THE WHITE RICE

LAST NIGHT.

WELL, I THOUGHT YOU WERE

SUPPOSED TO THROW THE RICE

AFTER THE WEDDING.

WE ARE JUS SO THRILLED.

WE THOUGHT THIS MOMEN WOULD NEVER COME.

YOUR FRIENDS ARE ALL MARRIED,

YOUR SISTER'S MARRIED--

I KNOW,

I AM THE LAS SINGLE PERSON ON EARTH.

WHAT YOUR MOTHER

MEANS IS,

IF YOU'RE HAPPY,

WE'RE HAPPY.

OF COURSE SHE'S HAPPY.

SHE'S GETTING MARRIED.

IT'S A MIRACLE.

ALTHOUGH I DON' UNDERSTAND

WHY HE CAN'T BE HERE

TILL SATURDAY.

MOTHER, I ALREADY TOLD YOU,

HE HAS:

A NASAL RECONSTRUCTION SEMINAR.

HE CAN' CHANGE HIS PLANS?

HE'S THE KEY-NOSE SPEAKER.

[LAUGHTER]

WELL, I HOPE

YOU TWO ARE STILL JOKING

IF HE DOESN'T SHOW UP.

MOTHER...

WHERE'S YOUR RING?

UH, PHILLIP TOOK I TO GET SIZED.

IT WAS TOO TIGHT, THAT'S ALL.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE.

YOU DON'T KNOW

HOW LONG I'VE WAITED

TO SEE SOMEONE IN THIS DRESS.

I'M PRETTY SURE WE DO.

OH, WE DO, MOM.

WELL, YOU COULD HAVE WORN I IF YOU HADN'T ELOPED.

AND THAT IS WHY:

WE ELOPED.

[CHUCKLING]

IS THAT ALL:

YOU'RE GOING TO PACK?

YEAH.

WHAT ELSE DO I NEED?

I GUESS, IF YOU WANT TO WEAR

THE SAME THING TO THE BRUNCH,

TO THE REHEARSAL DINNER,

TO THE NO-HOST COCKTAIL PARTY,

TO THE SUNSET CHINESE

LANTERN CEREMONY--

OKAY, MOM...

I KNOW THAT YOU WANT THIS

TO BE THE WEDDING

THAT YOU AND DAD

NEVER HAD,

BUT YOU PROMISED

TO KEEP THIS LOW-KEY.

YOU DID ASK MOM:

TO DO SOMETHING LOW-KEY.

IT IS LOW-KEY.

IT'S JUST US AND THEM.

HONESTLY, I DO NOT KNOW

WHAT YOU'RE AFRAID OF.

BECAUSE SHE'S NO A WEDDING PERSON, MOM.

I MEAN,

YOU KNOW THAT.

THAT'S

RIDICULOUS.

WHAT WOMAN DOESN' LIKE A WEDDING?

YOU SET A DATE,

YOU GET MARRIED.

WELL, ACTUALLY, MOM,

YOU SET THE DATE.

WAS I SUPPOSED TO WAIT FOR YOU

TO GET YOUR AARP CARD?

BESIDES,

THE NUPTIAL PACKAGE

IS ONLY GOOD UNTIL MAY.

NUPTIAL PACKAGE?

OH.

MOTHER.

HI.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

OH, I JUST THOUGH WE SHOULD TALK,

WITHOUT ALL THOSE

PEOPLE AROUND.

"THOSE PEOPLE," WOW,

YOU'LL GET USED TO THEM

ONCE YOU GET TO KNOW THEM.

WHAT A DELIGHTFUL PROSPECT.

YOU MIGHT BE:

SURPRISED.

OH, I AM SURPRISED.

UP UNTIL NOW, YOU'VE BEEN

THE PERFECT SON.

OH, MOTHER...

I JUST DON' UNDERSTAND,

OF ALL THE SUITABLE GIRLS,

YOU MARRYING SOMEONE LIKE HER.

OH, I'M NOT MARRYING

SOMEONE LIKE HER.

I'M MARRYING HER.

WELL, SHE'S

THE EXACT OPPOSITE

OF ANYONE YOU'VE EVER DATED.

BECAUSE SHE'S NO A SHALLOW SOCIALITE?

OR THE DAUGHTER OF

ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS?

I'M NOT CALLING

OFF THIS WEDDING.

WELL THEN, POSTPONE.

EVERYONE KNOWS:

A PROPER WEDDING TAKES

A YEAR AND A HALF TO PLAN.

GEORGIE'S MOM

WORKED HARD ON THIS.

I AM THE MOTHER OF THE GROOM.

I AT LEAST SHOULD HAVE

BEEN CONSULTED.

NO, NO, NO,

AS I RECALL,

YOU WERE TOO BUSY.

[SCOFFING]

WELL, I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING,

I WOULDN'T HAVE

FORCED MY GUESTS TO TRAVEL.

IT'S LESS THAN AN HOUR AWAY.

YOU'VE DRIVEN FARTHER

FOR A PAIR OF SHOES.

NOW, I KNOW

THIS IS DIFFICULT FOR YOU.

I KNOW THAT YOU FEEL ALONE

SINCE FATHER DIED.

YOU'RE NO LOSING A SON.

YOU'RE GAINING

A DAUGHTER.

BUT THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO.

THREE IF WE'RE COUNTING.

WELL, CLIENTS WANT PUPPIES,

NOT OLD DOGS.

OLD DOGS?
