SO MAYBE YOU SHOULD BUY

YOUR OWN DRESS AND VEIL.

NO... NO.

SHE SO WANTED ME

TO WEAR THIS,

AND IT'S ONE PAR OF THE WEDDING

THAT'S GOING TO BE

EXACTLY AS I IMAGINED IT.

WHICH IS WHY:

MAYBE IT'S A GOOD THING

THAT YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED

SO FAST--

JUST PUT ALL THIS BEHIND YOU.

BUT I DON'T WANT TO

PUT THIS BEHIND ME.

I WANT TO SAVOR EVERY SECOND.

OH, I KEEP

HOW WELL DID YOU KNOW

BUT I AM HIS MOTHER.

THERE WAS THIS ONE TIME.

MY PARENTS HAVE A PLACE

WE WENT OUT THERE

FOR A WEEKEND,

A BUNCH OF US.

THINGS WERE WINDING DOWN,

ROMANCE-WISE

BETWEEN ALEX AND HILARY.

THERE WAS THIS MOMEN WHEN I THOUGHT MAYBE,

NOTHING HAPPENED, BUT...

I WAS TEMPTED.

I'M SURE HE WAS, TOO.

LET ME KNOW WHAT HE THINKS

OF THE PHOTOS.

[DOOR CLOSES]

QUALIFIED CANDIDATE.

THERE'S A LOT OF REALLY GREA NURSE-PRACTITIONERS OUT THERE.

ARE YOU OKAY WITH THIS?

VETTING THE PERSON

THAT WILL TAKE YOUR JOB?

OF COURSE, YEAH.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE

YOU GUYS MAKE THE RIGHT HIRE.

SHE'S PARTICULAR ABOU THIS WEDDING STUFF.

AH... ONE OF THOSE.

ONE OF THOSE WHAT?

WOMEN WHO DREAM:

ABOUT THEIR WEDDING,

DOWN TO EVERY:

LITTLE DETAIL.

DON'T ALL WOMEN DO THAT?

[SCOFFS] NOT ME.

IF I MET A MAN:

I LOVED ENOUGH TO MARRY,

WE COULD ELOPE,

FOR ALL I CARE.

SEE, AND I SUGGESTED THA TO JUNE.

YOU KNOW,

I WAS KIDDING OF COURSE, BUT...

[CHUCKLES]

SHE'S GONNA LOVE

THE PHOTOGRAPHER.

TRUST ME.

THEY'RE, UM...

INTERESTING.

HE'S, UM,

IMAGINATIVE.

I DID HAVE SOMETHING

A LITTLE MORE:

TRADITIONAL IN MIND.

COLOR PHOTOS,

AT LEAST.

HE SHOOTS:

IN COLOR, RIGHT?

I DON'T KNOW.

DIDN'T YOU

TALK TO HIM?

NO.

WELL, WHO DID?

[QUIETLY] MY MOM.

WHAT?

MY MOM.

[CLEARS THROAT]

AND SHE HAS A CATERER

THAT'S GOING TO COME BY

AND BRING US SOME SAMPLES--

ALEX!

NEXT WEEK.

YEAH, I KNOW.

ALEX, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS.

I DON'T WANT YOUR MOTHER

MAKING DECISIONS

ABOUT OUR WEDDING.

IT'S NOT A DECISION.

IT'S JUST SUGGESTIONS.

OKAY.

OKAY, FINE, SUGGESTIONS.

UM, THIS PHOTOGRAPHER

DOESN'T WORK FOR ME, OKAY?

I WANT TO USE ONE

ON THE LIST I GAVE YOU.

YEAH.

YEAH, WHATEVER YOU WANT.

A-HA!

[CHUCKLING IN TRIUMPH]

THERE IT IS.

GOOD EYE.

I HATE IT WHEN:

THE BORDER ISN'T COMPLETE.

YEAH, THAT DRIVES

JUNE CRAZY, TOO.

RIGHT, JUNIE?

JUNE?

HMM?

YEAH.

YEAH, JUST, UH...

GOT A LOT ON MY MIND.

LIKE MY MOTHER-IN-LAW TO BE.

WHAT ABOUT HER?

SHE'S INTERFERING

WITH THE WEDDING,

MAKING DECISIONS

THAT SHOULD BE ALEX'S AND MINE.

SO TELL HER TO STOP.

OH.

OR YOU COULD TRY

WORKING TOGETHER.

RIGHT.

I'M SORRY TO PLAY

DEVIL'S ADVOCATE,

BUT DIANA'S IN

A TOUGH POSITION HERE.

I KNOW,

I'VE BEEN THERE.

TOUGH HOW?

WELL, HER BABY'S LEAVING HER

FOR ANOTHER WOMAN.

I KNOW IT'S SEEMS SILLY

TO SEE IT THAT WAY,

BUT THAT'S HOW I FEL WITH MY ERIC.

EMBARRASSING AS IT IS TO ADMIT,

WHEN HE AND NICOLE

WERE PLANNING THEIR WEDDING,

I GOT PRETTY "MEDDLE-Y" MYSELF.

YEAH, BUT DID YOU

LIKE NICOLE?

NOT AS MUCH AS I DO NOW.

[CHUCKLING]

[]

IS THIS REALLY:

JUST ABOUT DIANA BLACKWELL?

NO.

NOT ENTIRELY.

MM.

I'M LEAVING, DAD.

MY JOB, MY FRIENDS,

MY HOME TOWN.

MY WHOLE LIFE IS CHANGING--

[SNAPS FINGERS]

LIKE THAT.

AND I'M LEAVING YOU.

[CHUCKLES SYMPATHETICALLY]

OH, SWEETHEART,

DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME.

DO YOU KNOW,

IT MEANT A LOT TO ME

WHEN YOU MOVED BACK HERE

AFTER YOUR MOM PASSED.

YEAH, IT MEAN A LOT TO ME, TOO.

I'M OKAY NOW.

AND THERE'S GRACE.

IT'S JUST--

EVERYTHING'S HAPPENING SO FAST.

ALEX AND I WON'T EVEN HAVE TIME

FOR A HONEYMOON.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT,

IF YOU WERE TRULY

MEANT FOR EACH OTHER,

AND YOU ARE,

EVERY DAY YOU'RE TOGETHER

WILL BE A HONEYMOON.

AND IF THINGS ARE MOVING

TOO FAST, THEN SLOW THEM DOWN.

POSTPONE THE WEDDING

UNTIL YOU'RE READY.

BUT ALEX WANTS:

TO GET MARRIED NOW.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I DON'T KNOW.

BUT THE CLOSER WE GE TO THE WEDDING,

THE MORE I MISS MOM,

AND THE MORE I WISH

SHE WERE HERE,

PLANNING IT WITH ME,

LIKE WE ALWAYS DREAMED ABOUT.

YOU KNOW WHAT,

I THINK YOU MIGHT BE

MISSING AN OPPORTUNITY.

LIKE WHAT?

WHAT GRACE SAID,

INSTEAD OF RESENTING DIANA,

MAYBE YOU SHOULD SEE

IF YOU CAN WORK:

TOGETHER ON THIS THING.

I KNOW THA YOU TWO HAVEN'T CLICKED YET,

BUT SWEETHEART,

BELIEVE ME,

SHE'S GOING TO BE

YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW.

SHE'S NOT GOING TO

REPLACE YOUR MOM.

NO ONE COULD.

HI, BETHANY.

JUNE, WHAT A SURPRISE.

HI. I'M SORRY

TO JUST POP IN LIKE THIS,
