Why did Steve go to the movies|with you? Let's see.

First of all,|Steve likes the movies.

Steve had the night off.

Steve said, " Hey, you know what?

A movie sounds good."|Plus he got an invitation.

Why is Steve referring to himself|in the third person?

What are you talking about?

Think you can double-talk your way out,|throw me off your scent? I smell you!

And I smell like sweet red plums|and grilled cheese sandwiches.

- What?|- Yes.

- So you said before you passed out.|- I did not!

You did too. If anybody was|looking to get some, it's M-A-R-Y.

You are hideous.

Okay. Then why'd you|ask me to dance?

- I didn't.|- You did too.

- I did not.|- You said, "Would you like to dance?"

And even if I did,|I'm not the one who's engaged.

It was a dance.

Whoop-dee-doo.|It didn't mean anything.

Then why'd you almost kiss me?

This pair, this lovely couple...

they have it,|they know what it takes.

Very well done.

We need to pow wow.

As soon as dad mentioned it,|I went, "Of course."

Everybody knows that|it's the place to get married.

Sure, Fran.|A vineyard sounds perfect.

- We should check it out right away.|- I already have.

We have reservations for this weekend,|but you'll have to take off Friday.

Friday? Friday's not good for me.|I have a diverticulitis seminar planned.

- Okay. Saturday.|- Saturday.

Saturday. All right, Mary?|Thanks for everything.

Nice to meet you. Thanks for the dance.|We'll let you know how it all goes.

- Pleasure to meet you.|- Wait a second. She's coming with us.

- I'm coming?|- She's comin'?

Yes.

You are not quitting|the Donolly wedding!

I gotta tell Geri|I'm off the account.

Hold on.

Listen...

the only good reason to quit a wedding|is if you break the cardinal rule...

which is ridiculous because we both know|you did not fall in love with the groom.

What?

You didn't.

Bad.

No, of course not.

I'd never get emotionally involved.

Never. Never.

It's the doctor.

I'm confused. Is it the doctor,|or did you fall for the groom?

No, the doctor is the groom.|The groom is the doctor.

The doctor is Fran Donolly's fiance!

The dumpster girl|is your wedding planner?

Yes. I'm in hell.

And I'm in heaven.|Now you can fix me up with her.

I'm not fixing you up, Dr.John.|Look, this is complicated enough.

You are one of the top|wedding planners...

in this great, big,|thriving metropolis.

Look on the positive side.|He got you to open up again.

Tank the bastard and move on.

You cannot tell me you would sacrifice|your entire career over this!

You're not telling me that you think|it's a mistake to marry Fran now?

I don't think it's a mistake|to marry Fran. Fran is great.

Yes.

It's just that...

what if what I think is great|really is great...

but it's not as great|as something greater?

You will go through|with this wedding!

Why?

Because you deserve this partnership.|You've earned it!

- You're right.|- Of course I'm right.

Of course you're right.

Your feelings for her,|that's not chemistry, that's anxiety.

- It's nature.|- It's natural.

Natural. It's not chemistry,|it's anxiety.

I can do this.|I can plan this wedding.

The feelings I have for Fran|run deep.

It's not something that can be swept|away in one night with one dance.

Not gonna happen.

- What the hell was I thinking?|- You were thinking wrong.

I was thinking wrong.|I was being a jackass. Come on, Steve.

I can treat that jackass|like any other faceless groom.

That's just what I'm gonna do.|Why?

Because he's nothing!|Because I love a challenge!

And because I am|a goddamn professional!

- So you're gonna give me her number?|- No, I'm not.

I thought that we had|everything covered...

but then I realized Eddie and I|don't have a wedding song.

So I got this wedding compilation|to see if we can find one.

Okay, here we go.

- What do you think?|- That's groovy.

- I like it.|- Let's see what else there is.

- What do you think of this one?|- That's groovy too. I like it.

It's kinda cute.

Kinda not.

Oh, my God.

Olivia Newton-John.|I love this song.

- I Honestly Love You|- This is perfect, isn't it?

Yes, it is perfect.

- It is.|- Yes.

What?

Nothing. It's nothing.

- What, is it a bad song?|- No, I think it's absolutely perfect.

- See? It's perfect.|- It's perfect?

Yes, it is.|It's perfect.

You think so?|We have a song!

I can't believe it.|We have a song.

I love you

I honestly love you

What's that, like, 1983?

Oh, I've been meaning to ask you,|speaking of love...

what happened to that guy?

You know, the one|that you danced with--

There was a damn deer in the road.

Damn it.

Careful.

So, what happened?

- Didn't work out.|- How is that possible?

I saw you three days later,|and you still had stars in your eyes.

Well, he turned out to be the groom|of one of the weddings I was planning.

Yes.

That is the most disgusting thing|I have ever heard.

I would hate to be a single gal with all|those creeps running around out there.

Yeah, Fran, you're really lucky.

I suppose they'd like to see the gardens|first. don't you think, Mary?

I suppose they'd like to see the gardens|first. don't you think, Mary?

Over here is where the actual ceremony|would take place.

What are you doing here?

Your papa tell me where you are,|so I come to surprise you.

I made this for you.

And who is this?

- I'm her fiance.|- What?

Her fiance?

- Buongiorno. I am Massimo.|- I'm Steve.

And I'm Fran.

Oh, my God, Mary, I cannot believe|you didn't tell us you were engaged.

Mary, you're engaged!

That's marvelous!

After all the weddings we've done|together, now finally it's your turn.

- And I am her fiance.|- Congratulations.

We're gonna have to plan something|very special this weekend to celebrate.

- It won't be necessary.|- Yes, it will, because it is wonderful.

It is wonderful.

You've found that somebody special|in your life...

to be honest and faithful to...

until the end of time,|no matter what.

You must take that moment, Mary.

And I am her fiiance.

- We're ready for our tour now.|- Certainly.Just follow me.

Wow.

This wedding putting-together|is not a job for a man.

You stay with me|and we will do the manly bonding.

Manly bonding.|You and me.

We'll let the ladies--|I mean, the brides-to-be--

we'll let them go do their thing.

Bye-bye, girls.

How cute is he?

He's so cute.

How long you known Mary?

Way before she had the breasts.

Believe me, back then|she did not look so good.

Look. A center|for the physical fitness.

We do the bonding.|Follow me.

We do the bonding.

Take it easy there, buddy.

- I like the speed.|- You like the speed.

Faster.

Run!

Run like a man!

Like me!

Well, here we are.

Hi, bunny.|Wedding woman.

Mr. Donolly.|Hello, Mrs. Donolly.

What took you guys so long?

We found seven of the most|adorable vineyards on the way up.

- Right by the side of the road.|- All you can drink.

- Really? Great.|- Oh, honey, do you mind?

- How many is that for you?|- Sixty-five.

And you?

- How many?|- Sixty-five.
