Synopsis:

College sweethearts Juliet Jones and Elvis Lesley’s upcoming nuptials will soon face the truest test of love — watching their two families come together for the first time. Juliet’s from a family of conservative Connecticut academics; Elvis is from a flamboyant Las Vegas clan of “tribute artists.” A comedy about culture clash, family values, and a little hunka-hunka burning love.
