TESSA Okay. JUNE Okay, uh JUNE maybe not "absolutely." Maybe more like, um, "pretty much, but not entirely." JUNE The thing is, even after meeting Alex's mom, I don't know, a dozen times, I'm still really uncomfortable around her. TESSA Why? JUNE Because I feel like I'm always auditioning for her. TESSA Auditioning for what? JUNE The right to date her son. TESSA Well, if that's true, then she's a Dodo bird. TESSA Mm-hmm. JUNE I'm going to hold that thought. Should make it a lot easier to be around her. TESSA Well, I am always happy to help. JUNE There she is. TESSA Okay... TESSA Now I'm intimidated, too. JUNE Shall we storm the castle together? TESSA Lead on. DIANA June... DIANA how nice of you to come. RICHARD You look fabulous. JUNE Aw, thank you. So do you. JUNE Oh, um JUNE this is my friend, Tessa Williams. RICHARD Nice to meet you.

JUNE Yeah JUNE we're talking Town & Country cover stories. She's amazing. DIANA Oh, stop now. JUNE Uh, well, is Alex here yet? RICHARD Yeah, yeah, he's around here somewhere.

JUNE To a castle successfully stormed. TESSA Hear, hear. BETHANY Excuse me. BETHANY Are you June? JUNE Yeah. BETHANY Bethany Barnard. I went to Princeton with Alex. JUNE Oh! Are you visiting? BETHANY No, I just moved here. BETHANY I'm Diana's new assistant. JUNE Oh, congratulations. I'm sure that's a highly sought-after job. BETHANY Insanely sought after. I'm very lucky to have it. And Alex put in a good word. JUNE Have you seen Alex? I'm actually looking for him. BETHANY Not yet. I just got here. JUNE Oh. JUNE Well, this is my friend Tessa. BETHANY Alex said you're a nurse? JUNE Nurse-practitioner. BETHANY Is there a difference? JUNE Uh, yeah. Master's degree, the authority to diagnose, run medical tests,,, JUNE write prescriptions, a key to the executive JUNE ladies' room- TESSA There's Alex. TESSA Is that his buddy Matt you were telling me about? JUNE Mm-hmm. TESSA I am definitely giving him my number. ALEX Hey, you. MATT Hi. MATT Matt. TESSA Tessa. MATT Nice to meet you. TESSA Nice to meet you. MATT Shh. ALEX I just wanted to welcome everyone ALEX and thank you so much for coming. I want to thank Mom and Dad for ALEX hosting us tonight. Um, just wanted to make sure everyone is ALEX having the best New Year's that they can. ALEX And there's a little saying that love is blind. ALEX Perhaps, for some, it is. ALEX But for me, it's never been more crystal clear. PARTY GUESTS Aw... ALEX June ALEX I can't believe we've only known each other two short years when it feels like you've been a part of my life forever ALEX and it would mean the world to me if I knew that every day would be like that. ALEX And the only way I know to make this new year the best ALEX first year of the rest of ALEX my life is if you would share that life with me. ALEX So, June Fraser... ALEX will you marry me? ALEX Please? JUNE Yes. Yes! ALEX Were you surprised? JUNE A little. I mean, I was hoping you'd ask me sometime. Because if you didn't, I was gonna ask you. ALEX I was glad you didn't say no. JUNE No was not an option, Alex Blackwell JUNE because, as it happens JUNE I am totally and helplessly in love with you. RICHARD This was inevitable, Diana. He's crazy about her. DIANA It just seems so rash. Two years is such a short courtship. RICHARD As I recall, ours was only a little over a year. Can't hold on to him forever. JUNE Bye. ALEX Bye. YOUNG JUNE Why were you crying? KATHRYN Because I was so happy. People do that at weddings KATHRYN especially the bride. YOUNG JUNE Did Dad cry, too? KATHRYN Yes, but he pretended not to. You know how guys are. YOUNG JUNE Not really. KATHRYN You will soon enough. YOUNG JUNE That's my favorite! KATHRYN Oh, me too. Your dad is such a hunk. YOUNG JUNE Mom! KATHRYN That was the absolute KATHRYN best day of my life, well, until you came along, of course. YOUNG JUNE When I get married, I want it to be in a garden full of roses just like you and Dad did. KATHRYN With a string quartet? YOUNG JUNE And just my family and my closest friends. No mean girls allowed. KATHRYN Absolutely. A strictly enforced KATHRYN mean girl ban. YOUNG JUNE I hope I'll look as pretty as you YOUNG JUNE did. KATHRYN Oh, honey, you will be so much prettier. You KATHRYN will be the most splendiferous bride the world has ever seen. KATHRYN Even the flowers will stand and applaud. YOUNG JUNE The peonies and YOUNG JUNE ranunculus? KATHRYN Yes KATHRYN the peonies and ranunculus. KATHRYN And it will be KATHRYN the most beautiful KATHRYN June day, just like my wedding day was... KATHRYN and like the June day you were born. JUNE Happy New Year, Dad. CHARLIE You, too, sweetheart. Hey, did I hear you rooting around in the closet? JUNE Yes. CHARLIE Oh, my. CHARLIE You look beautiful, just like your mom did. JUNE And look. CHARLIE Alex is one CHARLIE lucky guy. CHARLIE Let's see. CHARLIE Oh, yeah, that's a beauty. JUNE Yeah, it sure is. He picked good. JUNE I just wish Mom were here to see it. CHARLIE Yeah CHARLIE me too. Boy, I remember your mom CHARLIE in that dress like it was yesterday. JUNE Yeah, she really was the most beautiful bride, wasn't she? CHARLIE Yeah, she was. JUNE Will it be weird for you? If I wear it? CHARLIE Oh, sweetheart... CHARLIE Nothing could make me happier. CHARLIE Look at you. CHARLIE So, what are you shooting for, this June or next? JUNE This June. CHARLIE Just like you and your mom dreamed it would be. JUNE Yeah. Except for... it's going to be strange JUNE planning it without her. CHARLIE Well, you've plotted this whole thing out right down to the last detail. JUNE Pretty much, yeah. CHARLIE Well, then, you won't be without her. CHARLIE She'll be there every step of the way. JUNE I'm counting on it. TESSA Ladies and gentlemen, the future Mrs. Alex Blackwell. JUNE Thank you. PAULO Let me see that rock PAULO huh? JUNE Are you here to see me, maestro? PAULO Hey, if you have time. JUNE Yeah, of course. JUNE Just let me get myself settled. PAULO Okay. JUNE Okay. JUNE Oh, incoming. DR MELLO June! Tessa told me the news. How wonderful. JUNE Thanks, Doc. TESSA Alex's buddy Matt called and asked me out. JUNE Double wedding. TESSA Let's see if we survive dinner and a movie first. TESSA What's this? JUNE That is more than 20 years of wedding planning. Mom and I were kind of obsessed with it when I was growing up. TESSA No kidding. JUNE Oh, I have got to get started on this thing. I only have six months. TESSA Well, six months is a lot of time. JUNE Obviously you've never planned a wedding. TESSA Well, don't rub it in. PAULO Every Christmas is so nice. My son and his wife come to visit, with my granddaughter, who is nine, and adorable. Then they leave, and I feel awful. JUNE Mm-hmm. After the holidays? PAULO Yeah, a sadness sets in and doesn't want to leave. JUNE Are you able to play the violin? PAULO Yes, but all I want to play are the late quartets. JUNE Beethoven? They're beautiful. PAULO And sad. PAULO They make me even more depressed. So this year I thought PAULO I would try to deal with it head on. JUNE Mm-hmm. I think what you're experiencing is Seasonal Affective Disorder JUNE not inappropriately JUNE "S.A.D." for short. PAULO Is there something you can give me for it? JUNE Yes, but before we go that route, we should talk about your sleep patterns, diet, exercise routines JUNE see if there's a natural way we can help you through it. PAULO Whatever you advise, okay? I just want to feel better. JUNE Well, then, this will be easy. We have the same goal. JUNE Check in with me in about a week or so. Let me know how you're doing. PAULO I will. JUNE Who's next? TESSA The Redman family, their flu shots. All seven of them. JUNE I'll line up the needles. JUNE I know it's hard to imagine now, but JUNE every June, this place is ablaze with pink and red roses. JUNE It's so beautiful. ALEX I bet. JUNE So this would work for you? ALEX Would it work for you? JUNE Yeah. ALEX Well, then, we should book it ALEX now, before anybody else does. ALEX I should probably get back to work, though. JUNE Okay. ALEX Thank you. I'll take that in here. ALEX Alex Blackwell. Hi. Yeah, it's good to hear from you. Sure, I have a minute. What's up? ZOE Welcome. JUNE Hi. ZOE What can I do for you? JUNE Well JUNE I'm in the market for a florist, and everybody says you're the best. ZOE Oh, do they, now? What's the occasion? JUNE I'm getting married in June. ZOE Wow, good for you. JUNE Thank you. Can I show you what I have in mind? ZOE Yeah, absolutely. ZOE A woman who knows what she wants. I like it. JUNE My mom and I started saving things we liked when I was seven. ZOE Peonies and ranunculus. ZOE Really original. JUNE With, um, bunches of coral flowers to add a little pop. ZOE It's perfect. JUNE Yeah... and you see how these JUNE clay pots were used as vases, with different colored ribbons wrapped around? JUNE We loved that. ZOE I can see why. You and your mom make a great team. JUNE "Made." She, um, died a few years ago. ZOE Oh, I'm sorry. Well, how wonderful it is that you have this. JUNE Yeah, it is. And my guarantee that I'll get exactly the wedding I always dreamed of. JUNE Hey, you. ALEX Hello. JUNE Did you text me you were coming over? ALEX I did not. I just wanted to see you. JUNE Is everything okay? ALEX It's amazing. I have, uh, I have some news. Some exciting news. JUNE What? ALEX You know I've always wanted to litigate environmental law for a top firm. JUNE Of course. ALEX I contacted a headhunter last month to find that job. JUNE Mm-hmm. ALEX And he found it. ALEX It's, um, it's not just a top firm. It's the best firm in the country. JUNE Alex! JUNE That's JUNE fantastic! ALEX I know. ALEX Um... one small catch. Two. JUNE A catch? Or two. ALEX So this-- this job, is, uh... it's-- it’s gonna be... ALEX It's in Cleveland. JUNE Cleveland? ALEX Ohio-- JUNE Y-yeah, I know where Cleveland is. ALEX Yeah, um... ALEX and it starts in early February. JUNE Early February...? ALEX And I'm leaving in a month. JUNE What?! No! Alex! No, no, you cannot go to Cleveland, not without me. ALEX I-- ALEX I know. Which is why I think we should get married now. JUNE Now. ALEX Mm-hmm. JUNE Now? ALEX Hey, so I'm looking at the calendar. If we get married the last weekend of the month, the 30th ALEX it's a Saturday. That gives us ALEX three weeks to plan the wedding. JUNE And pack, and find a replacement at work. I... ALEX It's a lot, I know, and... not what you had in mind. JUNE Well, no. I mean, getting married in June has always been a dream JUNE of mine. My parents were married JUNE in June. I was born in June. They named me June. ALEX June's your traditional wedding month. I get it. ALEX I really do. ALEX But I love you. ALEX And I want you to be my wife ALEX and I can't wait to spend-- JUNE Ditto. All of that. It's just... JUNE I never imagined JUNE not having a June wedding. ALEX Okay, well, if I mean, if it's really that important to you, then let's just have it in June. ALEX I hate the idea of living ALEX halfway across the country in another city than you, but if we have to do it, we have to do it. JUNE I hate that idea, too. JUNE No. JUNE We can absolutely JUNE 100% do this. JUNE And it's going JUNE be great. ALEX It will be. JUNE Yeah. ALEX All of it. JUNE All of it. ALEX Promise. JUNE Okay. TESSA You're leaving. No. JUNE Yeah. In a month. DR MELLO I understand I need to advertise for a new nurse-practitioner. JUNE I'm sorry. DR MELLO I'd say advertise for a replacement, but you're irreplaceable, June. JUNE You're pretty irreplaceable yourself. DR MELLO Where are you and Alex headed? TESSA Cleveland. JUNE Yeah, I already started looking at job JUNE listings out there. DR MELLO Well, let me know if you need any help. JUNE Thank you. But given the great experience I got here, I think I should be okay. I'm really gonna miss you guys. BETHANY Mrs. Bainbridge dropped off her paperwork. DIANA Okay. BETHANY Are you all right? DIANA Well, yeah, I'm fine. Why? BETHANY You just seem a little... distracted. BETHANY I'm sorry. It's none of my business. DIANA Alex has a new job. In Cleveland. BETHANY Cleveland? DIANA He and June are getting married in three weeks and moving there. BETHANY Wow. I'm just curious. How did Alex and June meet? DIANA Why do you ask? BETHANY I don't know, June just doesn't seem like the kind of girl that Alex would normally... hang out with. DIANA They met professionally. BETHANY Oh. She needed an attorney? DIANA No, he needed a nurse. Strep throat. BETHANY How romantic. DIANA Yeah. Apparently. BETHANY This is such a horrible thing to say, but don't you think it's a little bit of a cliché? DIANA What? BETHANY The nurse who snares the rich guy. DIANA Yes, that is a horrible thing to say. BETHANY I'm sorry. DIANA Doesn't mean it isn't true. DIANA I'm ready for my morning espresso. BETHANY I'm on it. GRACE I love the fabric you've chosen for the reception place settings, June. JUNE I know. Isn't it cool? Mom and I filed that one away about 10 years ago. GRACE Is it still available? JUNE Amazingly, yeah. It took an hour of web-surfing to track it down, but now I just JUNE need to arrange to have the place settings actually made. GRACE Well, let me. I love to sew. JUNE Grace, I couldn't possibly ask you to do that. GRACE You're not asking. I'm offering. CHARLIE I'd take her up on her offer, June. I've seen her quilts. They're terrific. GRACE Charlie GRACE Excuse me. It's my daughter in New York. JUNE Oh. CHARLIE You okay with this? JUNE Dad, it's been three years. You're allowed to date again. CHARLIE So you don't mind? JUNE What did Mom say? CHARLIE "Charlie, don't be selfish, Make someone else as happy as you made me." JUNE So, I've divided up the to-do list. There's stuff that we'll need to do together, but with the rest, I figure if we each take half, we should be able to pull this off. ALEX How big a wedding are you thinking? JUNE Small. ALEX Like immediate family members only? JUNE Oh, come on, a little bigger than that. JUNE I'm sure you're going to want Matt to be there. And no way am I getting married without Tessa, and Dr. Mello, and Dad's gonna want to bring Grace. ALEX All right, so you still want to do it here? JUNE No, not this time of year. We'll have to line up something indoors, and fast. ALEX You know, it's not that easy for me to get away from work right now. I still have to prep the guy who's going to take over for me. JUNE Yeah, well, me neither. I've got to help hire and train a replacement. ALEX Okay, so tomorrow at lunch, let's go look at some new places, and-- JUNE No. No, no, no, no. ALEX No. JUNE Today JUNE after work. We've got to stay JUNE on this. JUNE Huh... Well, uh, it's big enough. ALEX It's not very exciting. JUNE Or warm. ALEX It's freezing in here. JUNE We should keep looking. ALEX Yup. JUNE Thank you! JUNE What's that smell? ALEX Stale cigarettes. JUNE Right. JUNE I forgot how awful that smell is. ALEX I guess it's still legal to smoke in private clubs. ALEX Next. JUNE How can something that calls itself "grand" be so... blah? ALEX This place would need a complete overhaul to work. JUNE And it's way too big. ALEX Would you consider eloping? JUNE Don't you ever say that word again. ALEX Okay. ALEX We need help. JUNE Mm-hmm. What do you have in mind? ALEX Someone who's either decorated or been a consultant to every good spot in town. ALEX You know, because we're so jammed for time, there's not going to be many places available. JUNE And the places we've seen have been awful. I know, given the time of year, we have to find somewhere inside, but I'd at least like a venue with windows that let in light JUNE you know? DIANA Well, it's going to be hard to find someplace you like. I mean, most people book way in advance. ALEX Mom, you're pretty dialed in. You think you could, you know, call someone ALEX or...? DIANA I can try. But you know... RICHARD I was thinking the same thing. DIANA Why don't you do it here? RICHARD We certainly have the space, a kitchen that can accommodate caterers, RICHARD and a main room that's all about light. JUNE Uh... DIANA If I do DIANA say so myself, it's a lovely setting for a wedding. RICHARD Consider it our wedding gift. JUNE Um... ALEX Wow... JUNE Yeah, you know, we would not want to inconvenience you. DIANA Oh, you wouldn't be inconveniencing us. RICHARD We're used to putting RICHARD on events here. DIANA Yeah. ALEX The New Year's Eve party was pretty fantastic. JUNE Yeah, it was great. Um JUNE but, listen, if we did do it here, you wouldn't have to put on anything. We would arrange everything. RICHARD Of course. DIANA Absolutely. I mean, after all, it's your wedding. JUNE Yeah. RICHARD It's settled. RICHARD To June and Alex... RICHARD and the greatest wedding RICHARD put together in three weeks the world has ever seen. ALEX Cheers. JUNE No, it's really nice of them. ALEX "But"? I hear a "but" in there. JUNE I know your mother doesn't like me. ALEX Of course she likes you. She's just set in her ways. JUNE Well, I'm just sure she had someone better in mind for you to marry. ALEX Than the greatest woman ever? JUNE Better than JUNE a nurse. ALEX Except you're a nurse-practitioner. JUNE Like she knows the difference. Look, it's just-- Alex, this is our wedding. JUNE I don't want your mother co-opting it. ALEX She won't. JUNE Well, we’ll be tempted to. We're getting married in her house. ALEX Then let's get married somewhere else. JUNE We don't have time JUNE and anyway, it really is a beautiful venue for a wedding. ALEX Okay. JUNE Yeah. JUNE You okay with the flatware that looks like bamboo? ALEX Sure. JUNE And what about wine glasses? Elegant and thin or JUNE rough and sturdy? ALEX Elegant and thin. JUNE Really? But you're a rough and sturdy kind of guy. ALEX Yeah, but you're not. JUNE So, what, you're just picking stuff that I like? ALEX Mm-hmm. JUNE Really? So, what if I want... lavender sheets? ALEX I love lavender sheets. JUNE And Hello Kitty dish towels? ALEX Stop it, mind-reader. JUNE Polka dot Tupperware? ALEX Check. JUNE Hmm, "his" and "her" fondue pots? ALEX Fondue's delicious. JUNE Matching flannel nightgowns? JUNE Okay, back to business. ALEX Okay. I guess. ZOE Three weeks? JUNE Well, now we're down to two and a half. ZOE Why the rush? JUNE We're moving to Cleveland next month. ZOE Cleveland? JUNE Ohio. ZOE I know where Cleveland is. I just-- I don't think it's possible. JUNE No, don't say that. ZOE I mean for me. JUNE Oh. Right, um... JUNE Well, maybe there's someone else JUNE you could recommend? ZOE Of course I'm gonna do it! ZOE I just need to kick and scream a little bit. JUNE Can we still do the peonies and ranunculus? ZOE Well, peonies are out of season, so... ZOE I'm sure they're growing somewhere. I'll see if I can special order them. JUNE Perfect! ZOE No, no, don't hold out for perfect, June, okay? We'll just do the best we can. JUNE Got it. ZOE Yeah, right. JUNE Maestro! PAULO Buon giorno. JUNE How are you? PAULO Never been better. Your regime is working beautifully. I have not felt blue in days. JUNE Aw, that's great. Did you join a gym? PAULO Better. Dancing lessons. JUNE Good for you. Listen, I-- I have some news. PAULO Yeah. JUNE I'm leaving in a few weeks. My fiancé got a new job and we're moving to Ohio. PAULO That's big news, huh? JUNE I know. JUNE I'm gonna miss my patients. Some more than others. PAULO Hmm, not as much as we will miss you. JUNE And I need your advice. I would like to hire a string quartet for my ceremony, and I'm sure you know a lot of great players. PAULO I do. In fact, I'm quite close to one of the finest violinists in the city, and he is in a wonderful duo with a pianist, and he would consider it PAULO a great honor to play at the wedding of his most favorite nurse-practitioner. PAULO Would a violin and a piano do? JUNE Violin and piano would be great. PAULO But not for hire, huh? As my gift. JUNE Thank you, Paulo. JUNE That's really nice. PAULO My pleasure. JUNE Hey, so I'm making JUNE progress in the flowers and the music. ALEX That's great. JUNE Well, not exactly the flowers and music JUNE I wanted, but close enough, and I'm almost done with the invitations. How are things on your end? ALEX Uh, good, good. I made a few calls and some ALEX Internet inquiries. Just ALEX waiting for people to call me back. JUNE Good, but just don't wait too long, because we've got to nail things down. ALEX No, I know. Um, I'll call you first thing in the morning. JUNE Okay. ALEX I love you. ALES Sleep tight, sweetheart. JUNE Love you, too. Bye. RICHARD Everything okay? ALEX Yeah. Yeah, just, uh, wedding stuff. DIANA What wedding stuff? ALEX Caterers, photographers, minister. I have a list. MATT That's a lot. ALEX Yeah, well, June's is just as big, but, uh, I'm not as into it as she is. MATT Yeah, well, you're a guy. DIANA You know, darling, um DIANA this is a really slow time of year for me, and I... I've had a lot of experience with caterers, and photographers, and-- RICHARD I'm sure RICHARD Alex can handle it. DIANA I-- I know he could. DIANA But, you know, if you need some help. ALEX Thank you, Mom, but June and I, we-- we really want to do this ourselves. DIANA Well, can I make some suggestions? DIANA I mean DIANA you yourself said that... that I was dialed in. ALEX Okay. But suggestions only. DIANA Of course. DIANA Give me a copy of your list. CHARLIE How's it going? JUNE Uh, I feel slightly less buried under an avalanche than I did this morning. CHARLIE Anything I can do to help? JUNE No. Oh, but if I start to go Bridezilla, promise me you'll yank me back to Earth. CHARLIE Promise. I'm turning in. JUNE All right, good night. CHARLIE Good night, sweetheart. KATHRYN ...With a string quartet? JUNE And just my family and my closest friends. No mean girls allowed. KATHRYN Absolutely. A strictly enforced mean girls ban. JUNE I hope I'll look as pretty as you did. KATHRYN Oh, honey, you will be so much prettier. You KATHRYN will be the most splendiferous bride the world has ever seen. KATHRYN Even the flowers will stand and applaud. JUNE What do you think, does it need altering? SEAMSTRESS It won't need to be taken in or altered very much. JUNE Oh, good. SEAMSTRESS It's a gorgeous SEAMSTRESS dress. Where did you find it? JUNE My mother wore it at her wedding. SEAMSTRESS Oh, wonderful. SEAMSTRESS She must be thrilled you're wearing it. JUNE Oh, um, no, she's... she's no longer with us. SEAMSTRESS Oh, sorry. Here. Let's try on the veil. JUNE Okay. JUNE Excuse me. JUNE It just... really hits me sometimes. TESSA I know, sweetie. JUNE That my mom won't be here for this. TESSA I know. JUNE I'm wearing her dress and her veil... TESSA So maybe you should buy your own dress and veil. JUNE No... No. She so wanted me to wear this, and it's one part of the wedding that's going to be exactly as I imagined it. TESSA Which is why maybe it's a good thing that you're getting married so fast-- just put all this behind you. JUNE But I don't want to put this behind me. I want to savor every second. TESSA Well, you could've fooled me. JUNE Am I doing the right thing, Tessa? Jumping in head first like this? TESSA Of course you are. You're young and in TESSA love, which is all about jumping in head first. JUNE I love Alex. I really, really do. I just want this wedding to be perfect, you know? TESSA And it will be, because it's you and Alex. JUNE Yeah. JUNE I hope you're right. BETHANY Wow, these are stunning. DIANA I know. I love the way he gets inside. I mean, most wedding photographers, they're so stagey. I mean, these breathe. BETHANY And he's still available? DIANA Remarkably, yes. BETHANY Alex is gonna be thrilled. DIANA I hope so. DIANA I want him to see these right away, so take them to his office. BETHANY Of course. DIANA Oh, I keep meaning to ask you. DIANA How well did you know Alex at Princeton? BETHANY You know, he dated Hilary, my roommate, so I hung out with them in group situations. DIANA Never any sparks between you two? BETHANY I wish. I mean, come on, he's gorgeous, smart, super sweet. DIANA I think so, but I am his mother. BETHANY There was this one time. BETHANY My parents have a place in East Hampton. BETHANY We went out there for a weekend, a bunch of us. BETHANY Things were winding down, romance-wise, between Alex and Hilary. BETHANY There was this moment when I thought maybe, just maybe... Nothing happened, but... I was tempted. DIANA I'm sure he was, too. DIANA Let me know what he thinks of the photos. DR MELLO Thanks for coming in. DR MELLO We'll be in touch. DR MELLO What did you think? JUNE Another supremely qualified candidate. JUNE There's a lot of really great nurse-practitioners out there. DR MELLO Are you okay with this? Vetting the person that will take your job? JUNE Of course, yeah. I want to make sure you guys make the right hire. DR MELLO All right. PAULO Buon Giorno. JUNE Maestro! Hi! Were you scheduled to come in today? PAULO No, no, no, I just came to drop off this. Some music possibilities for the wedding. You let me know which ones you like, huh? PAULO Okay? JUNE Aw, that's wonderful, thank you. DR MELLO In the category DR MELLO of "it's a small world," a terrific guy joined our golf foursome on Sunday-- DR MELLO Luigi Pascarella. PAULO Father Louie! He's my first cousin. How is he? DR MELLO Still playing a very good game. How old is he? PAULO 80 if he's a day. Can you believe he's still saying Mass? Incredible. DR MELLO The way he was hitting the ball? Absolutely. PAULO Ciao. DR MELLO I'll tell Tessa we're ready for the next applicant. JUNE Okay. BETHANY Diana put a hold on him, but we'll have to confirm soon. ALEX Okay. I still want to run these past June. BETHANY Really? I thought you were in charge of the photos. ALEX Well, yeah, but, you know ALEX I don't want to pick someone she doesn't like. She's particular about this wedding stuff. BETHANY Ah... one of those. ALEX One of those what? BETHANY Women who dream about their wedding, down to every little detail. ALEX Don't all women do that? BETHANY Not me. BETHANY If I met a man I loved enough to marry BETHANY we could elope, for all I care. ALEX See, and I suggested that to June. You know, I was kidding of course, but... BETHANY She's gonna love the photographer. BETHANY Trust me. JUNE They're, um... interesting. ALEX He's, um ALEX imaginative. JUNE I did have something a little more traditional in mind. Color photos, at least. He shoots in color, right? ALEX I don't know. JUNE Well, didn't you talk to him? ALEX No. JUNE Well, who did? ALEX My mom. JUNE What? ALEX My mom. ALEX And she has a caterer that's going to come by and bring us some samples. JUNE Alex! ALEX Next week. Yeah, I know. JUNE Alex, we talked about this. I don't want your mother making decisions about our wedding. ALEX It's not a decision. It's just suggestions. JUNE Okay. ALEX Yeah. JUNE Okay, fine, suggestions. Um JUNE this photographer doesn't work for me, okay? I want to use one on the list I gave you. ALEX Yeah. Yeah, whatever you want. GRACE A-ha! There it is. CHARLIE Good eye. GRACE I hate it when the border isn't complete. CHARLIE Yeah, that drives June crazy, too. Right, Junie? CHARLIE June? JUNE Hmm? CHARLIE You okay? JUNE Yeah. Yeah, just, uh... got a lot on my mind. JUNE Like my mother-in-law to be. GRACE What about her? JUNE She's JUNE interfering with the wedding, making decisions that should be Alex's and mine. CHARLIE So tell her to stop. JUNE Oh. GRACE Or you could try working together. JUNE Right. GRACE I'm sorry to play devil's advocate, but Diana's in a tough position here. GRACE I know, I've been there. JUNE Tough how? GRACE Well, her baby's leaving her for another woman. GRACE I know it's seems silly to see it that way, but that's how I felt with my Eric. Embarrassing as it is to admit, when he and Nicole were planning their wedding, I got pretty "meddle-y" myself. JUNE Yeah, but did you like Nicole? GRACE Not as much as I do now. CHARLIE Is this really just about Diana Blackwell? JUNE No. Not entirely. CHARLIE Mm. JUNE I'm leaving, Dad-- my job, my friends, my home town. My whole life is changing like JUNE that. JUNE And I'm leaving you. CHARLIE Oh, sweetheart, don't worry about me. CHARLIE Do you know, it meant a lot to me when you moved back here CHARLIE after your mom passed. JUNE Yeah, it meant a lot to me, too. CHARLIE I'm okay now. CHARLIE And there's... CHARLIE Grace. JUNE It's just-- everything's happening so fast. Alex and I won't even have time for a... JUNE honeymoon. CHARLIE Do you know what, if you were truly meant for each other, and you are CHARLIE every day you're together will be a honeymoon. CHARLIE And if things are moving too fast, then slow them down. CHARLIE You know, postpone the wedding until you're ready. JUNE But Alex wants to get married now. CHARLIE What do you want? JUNE I don't know. But the closer we get 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. CHARLIE You know what? I think you might be missing an opportunity. JUNE Like what? CHARLIE Like Grace said, instead of resenting Diana, maybe you should see if you can work CHARLIE together on this thing. I-- I know that I know that CHARLIE you two haven't clicked yet CHARLIE but sweetheart, believe me, she's going to be your mother-in-law. CHARLIE She's not going to replace your mom. No one could. JUNE Hi, Bethany. DIANA June, what a surprise. JUNE Hi. I'm sorry to just JUNE pop in like this, but, um, I'm on my lunch break, and I figured, if you had a minute, maybe we could go over some wedding details. DIANA Sure. I have a minute. JUNE Okay, terrific. BETHANY Oh, my gosh. BETHANY Is that what you have to wear to work? JUNE Uh... every day. BETHANY I'd be miserable if I had to dress like that every day. JUNE Yeah, I know what you mean. Well, not everyone can pull off this look. Just lucky, I guess. DIANA Bethany, why don't you take DIANA June's coat? We can talk in here. JUNE Thank you. DIANA So... what's on your mind? JUNE Well, um, I appreciate the suggestions you've made. Alex and I both do. DIANA I'm happy to help. JUNE Mm-hmm, but listen, um... the photographer you referred to us- DIANA Alex told me that you'd like to go a different way. That's fine. I mean, I told the photographer we were moving on. JUNE Oh. That's great. DIANA Yeah. JUNE Okay, uh, well, then, as far as catering's concerned, I feel like- DIANA What do you think about Jocelyn? JUNE Jocelyn, as in the restaurant "Jocelyn"? DIANA Exactly. JUNE Yeah! Yeah JUNE she would have been at the top of my list, but I JUNE was told she didn't cater. DIANA She doesn't. But, well, she's a friend. JUNE Oh. Diana, that's fantastic. DIANA Thank you. Oh, and, um, did Alex mention Reverend Farnsworth? DIANA To officiate. JUNE No. No, uh, Judge McCarten, the man I wanted, wasn't available. He married my mom and dad. DIANA Hmm. Reverend Farnsworth married Richard and me. Well, he's retired now, but he agreed to slip on the collar one last time, you know, for old times' sake. DIANA I mean, isn't that wonderful continuity? JUNE Yeah, that's... that's really sweet. DIANA And I wanted to talk to you about the size DIANA of the wedding. I mean, would it be okay if Richard and I invited some of our business associates? JUNE Uh, how... how many? DIANA Oh, not too many. A dozen or so. Well, here's who we had in mind. DIANA But-- but don't worry. We will absolutely absorb all of the cost. JUNE Uh... JUNE Yeah... Um... Yeah, okay. JUNE That's-- This should be... JUNE great. DIANA Okay. Well, that's great. DIANA Yeah. I guess we're done here. JUNE Yeah. BETHANY So... BETHANY I was reviewing Alex's wedding to-do list, and it seemed to me that something was missing. DIANA Oh? BETHANY It's just boilerplate, but, well, somebody should be thinking about this, don't you think? Just to be safe? SHOE SALESMAN You've seen everything we have. We could special-order something, but that would take a few weeks. JUNE I only have a week-and-a-half. It's fine, I'll just take these. SHOE SALESMAN Great. JUNE Aw... Well, at least one thing will be perfect. TESSA See you guys later. JUNE Bye. ALEX Let's ditch this wedding stuff, go get some fine Italian food ALEX and some Frank Sinatra on the juke box. JUNE Mm, I've still got a ton of packing to do. ALEX Can't it wait till the morning? JUNE Not really. JUNE I really should stay on it. ALEX Bye. CHARLIE I love that picture of CHARLIE your mom. I remember taking... CHARLIE it right before the bad stuff started. JUNE Yeah, that's why I love it so much. CHARLIE You're not leaving it here, are you? JUNE No! Never. JUNE Wherever I go, she goes. I just hope she likes Cleveland. DIANA That cauliflower Parmesan was just divine. ALEX Second that. BETHANY How does she get the kale crisps to be so... crispy? ALEX What's in this dip? DIANA Brussels sprouts. Isn't that clever? BETHANY Clever and scrumptious. DIANA Mm. ALEX Do you think it's okay? JUNE Yeah, no, everything's really, really, really great. Um, there will be a chicken option, right, and-- and fish? DIANA Well, Jocelyn's so inventive with non-meat dishes, I thought we'd take advantage of that. DIANA I mean, unless DIANA you have your heart set on chicken or fish. BETHANY Well, then she'd have to re-think everything in terms of food and wine pairings BETHANY and with only a week to go? DIANA Yeah, I don't know if there's time. JUNE Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, everything's fine. Yeah, the food's really wonderful. JUNE We can just stick to the menu we've got. It's good. DIANA Okay. ALEX So I don't know anything about wine or food pairings, so if there's something on the menu you want to talk to the caterer about- JUNE I said it was fine. ALEX Wait, hold on. ALEX What-- what-- what's all this? JUNE This is starting to feel like your mother's wedding, not ours. ALEX That-- that's silly. JUNE It's not silly, Alex. ALEX She's trying to help. JUNE Look, I know we don't have time to have the wedding that I always envisioned JUNE but I certainly JUNE don't want it to be the wedding your mother envisions. ALEX I-- I just don't see it's that big of a deal. JUNE Do you care at all about this wedding? ALEX Yeah. Probably not ALEX not as much as-- as you, but- JUNE Great. Thanks a lot. ALEX June, give ALEX me a break. Look, I have the Y chromosome, you know, I don't care about wedding details like you, but I'm trying, and I really want to make you happy. JUNE Well, I'm not. ALEX Okay, um... look, we're going to get through this and it's going to be great, I promise. JUNE That's how you see this wedding? As something to "get through"? JUNE Alex, this wedding is really important to me. ALEX I-- I get that. ALEX I get that, I-- I do ALEX but what's important to me is us being together. ALEX I’m-- I'm really sorry that we're rushing things like this, but a new job ALEX in a new city, without you? That's terrifying. ALEX This wedding is just ALEX a means to an end, okay, and that end ALEX is us being together. ALEX That's the part I'm looking forward to. JUNE It's just, this is the first big thing that we've tackled together, and if we can't get it right, what does that say about us? ALEX The wedding's not us. This is us. ALEX This is us. This is us. ALEX This is going to be fine. I promise you. It's- JUNE I've got to get to work. JUNE What? JUNE No. JUNE I feel like an idiot. DAVE You'd be surprised how often this happens. JUNE Well, it's a first for me. DAVE So you're DAVE uh, getting married? JUNE Yeah. In five days. DAVE Wow, a January wedding. That's rare. JUNE Yeah, well, we had to act fast. My fiancé’s starting a new job in February in Cleveland. Ohio. But I know you know where that is. DAVE A-ha! DAVE Oh! Got it! JUNE Oh... DAVE Got it. JUNE My hero. JUNE Thank you. DAVE Mm. DAVE You know, I got married in a rush, too. JUNE Yeah? DAVE Yeah. Seriously bad move. JUNE Why? DAVE Well, my wife-- ah, my ex-wife DAVE she didn't get the wedding that she'd always dreamed of, and kind of never forgave DAVE me for it. JUNE I'm sorry. DAVE Ah... we had other problems, so it was more of a DAVE symptom than a DAVE cause. But I've always wondered how things would have gone if DAVE we'd started married life with her happy instead of DAVE disappointed. DAVE So I've got to get going on my next call. JUNE Oh, right. Sorry. Okay, here you go. DAVE Thanks. DAVE Oh, and, uh DAVE good luck with... everything. JUNE Thank you. DAVE Yeah. JUNE Oh, I'm so late. TESSA I'm just glad you got your engagement ring back. JUNE Do you think it was an omen? Like maybe I wanted to lose it? TESSA Wow, are you having second thoughts, or is this just the jitters every bride-to-be is supposed to get? JUNE I don't know. But my ring literally went down the drain. JUNE And I flirted with the plumber. TESSA Was he cute? JUNE Yeah. TESSA So, then, why wouldn't you flirt with him? JUNE Because I'm getting married! TESSA So there's your answer. No omen, it's just TESSA an accident. JUNE I think I'm starting to lose it, Tessa. TESSA Hey! Matt asked me to be his plus-one at the wedding. Which makes sense. I mean, Best Man, Maid of Honor. So don't unravel on me now. There's more at stake here than just you. JUNE Okay. ALEX Bethany. Hi. BETHANY Hey. I was on my way to lunch, and your mother asked me to bring you this. ALEX What's this? BETHANY Just some legal papers connected to the wedding. ALEX That's exactly what I need. BETHANY Right? Busman's holiday. ALEX Exactly. BETHANY So, have you had lunch? ALEX I have not. BETHANY Why don't you join me? ALEX Sure. ALEX What were we thinking? BETHANY We weren't. We were young and invincible. ALEX I'm going to go with young and insane, that's more like it. BETHANY But what good times we had, and look at us now. We're all grown up. ALEX Well, that was bound to happen. BETHANY I suppose so. BETHANY I was always jealous of Hilary, you know. ALEX Really? Why is that? BETHANY Because she was with you. I had a huge crush on you, Alex. And I still do. BETHANY And I wanted you to know that so that when you hear BETHANY what I'm about to say, you'd understand that I'm a little bit biased. ALEX Say what? BETHANY I think you're making a big mistake marrying June. BETHANY I've seen the two of you together, and I just don't get it. BETHANY You're such a classy guy, Alex, and she's... ALEX She's what? BETHANY Not. BETHANY I mean, sure, she's pretty and fun and clever. She just BETHANY doesn't seem like a good fit for you. ALEX That's enough. ALEX Why are you saying this? BETHANY Because... because friends are supposed to be honest with each other. ALEX Really. ALEX Okay. ALEX Let me be honest with you, then. I knew you had a crush on me in college. BETHANY Well, why didn't you do something about it? ALEX Because I was not interested. ALEX And how could I be? ALEX You were manipulative and self-serving, and I'd thought that, at least by now, you would have changed, maybe you would have grown up a little bit. ALEX I guess not. ALEX I love June. Unequivocally and unconditionally, and she has more class in her finger than I could ever dream of having. TESSA This was just hand-delivered. JUNE Thank you. TESSA I don't know what to make of this. JUNE Well, I do. JUNE It's outrageous! And insulting! TESSA You can't sign this. JUNE Of course not. TESSA She has no standing to do this, does she? JUNE No. And someone is gonna tell her that. TESSA You sure you don't want to just take a beat here? JUNE Absolutely sure. DIANA June. Hi. DIANA Is something wrong? JUNE I know you don't like me, Diana. DIANA What are you talking about? JUNE That you think I'm not good enough for Alex. DIANA That's not true. JUNE But a pre-nup? JUNE How dare you. JUNE I am not marrying Alex for his money, whatever you may think. DIANA I don't think that at all. DIANA I do think the two of you are rushing into this marriage when it would be more prudent to wait. JUNE It was Alex's idea to get married so soon. DIANA Well, Alex doesn't always know what's best for him. JUNE And you do? DIANA I hope so. I'm his mother. JUNE And you think he needs a pre-nup? DIANA If his money is of no interest to you, why should you care DIANA if you sign one or not? ALEX This was your idea? DIANA This was not on either of your lists, so, yes, I took the... DIANA initiative. ALEX You had no right ALEX to take that. DIANA I'm not going to stand around and watch you make the biggest mistake of DIANA your life and not do everything DIANA I can to protect you. ALEX A mistake? DIANA There's obviously a red flag here, Alex. One that you're not seeing. ALEX What are you talking about? DIANA She is-- is more in love with the-- the wedding and-- and in making i DIANA just so than she is with you. ALEX So were you! You were ALEX obsessed over your wedding. Dad told me you were! DIANA Oh, well, that may be, but I never let it get in the DIANA way of how I felt about your father. ALEX And neither has June! JUNE Stop it! Both of JUNE you! JUNE My mother and I dreamed about the kind of wedding I would have, and it broke my heart to give up on that dream, but I did it for Alex. JUNE And I had hoped, in time JUNE that maybe you and I could find a way to connect, just a little bit JUNE because I need that if I'm going to be JUNE a part of this family. But I was wrong to hope that, and you're right. JUNE This is a big mistake. JUNE Everything about it has been wrong from the minute we agreed to it. It doesn't feel right. JUNE Nowhere near. JUNE The wedding is off. ALEX June... ALEX What have you done? DIANA I'm sorry, Alex. I-- I meant no harm. ALEX Yeah, Mom... yeah, you did. ALEX And you'd better hope ALEX I can make this right. ALEX You know, and, uh, thanks also for siccing Bethany on me. DIANA What? ALEX "You're making a big mistake, Alex." ALEX Perhaps your double-teaming would have been ALEX a little more effective had you not memorized the same script. CHARLIE Junie? CHARLIE Sweetheart, I want to help. JUNE I don't want to talk about it, Dad. CHARLIE Sweet-- ALEX June's not returning my calls or texts. ALEX June ALEX will you talk to me? JUNE No! ALEX Listen... I love you so much, and I-- I'm sorry for whatever I did to cause this disaster, and I'll do anything ALEX you want to make it right. I’ll-- I'll do anything. JUNE Just go away. ALEX We can stop the craziness. L-let's have a June wedding. I mean ALEX whatever you want to do. CHARLIE Alex... CHARLIE You should, uh, probably give her a night to sleep it off. ALEX I've never seen her like that before. CHARLIE I know my daughter, Alex, and I know how much she loves you. But right now she's in a state, a bad one. CHARLIE But she's not going to be there CHARLIE forever, I promise you. ALEX I hope so. RICHARD Diana? We need to talk. DIANA Alex told you what happened? RICHARD Yes. You know, for someone as accomplished and intelligent as you are, you've been incredibly clumsy. DIANA Well... June's canceling the wedding cannot just be about me. RICHARD No, no, I'm sure she's under a lot of stress. RICHARD As is Alex. Which is why we should be helping, and not hurting them. DIANA I tried to help. RICHARD By taking over her wedding? DIANA No, I-- I didn't take over. I just-- I made suggestions. RICHARD You side-swiped her dream, Diana. RICHARD You had RICHARD a nuclear meltdown the night before our wedding because the flowers you ordered turned out to be fuchsia instead of orange, and you moved heaven and earth to get orange. DIANA Oh, she hates me. RICHARD And why shouldn't she? RICHARD She is going to be a part of this family, and you have to get used to that, starting now. RICHARD And you also need to find a way to make it up to Alex. DIANA I'm losing him, Richard. RICHARD He's your son, Diana. You're not going to lose him, any more than I lost my mother when I married you. DIANA Oh, that's an understatement. Her annual visits kept getting longer and longer. RICHARD Her war of attrition. But you two found a way to get along together RICHARD and so will you and June. DIANA Oh, if they can patch it up. RICHARD They will. DIANA I really am terribly sorry. RICHARD I know. DIANA Why do you put up with me? RICHARD Because I would be desolate without you. BETHANY Morning. BETHANY I brought your morning espresso and some fresh croissants. BETHANY What's this? DIANA Bethany, I'm letting you go. DIANA So here is DIANA a month's pay, and a letter of recommendation. BETHANY What? Why? DIANA I don't know exactly what you said to Alex, but I have a feeling that you were taking your lead from me DIANA and I couldn't live with myself, working with you every day, knowing that. BETHANY Diana, I know, I may have crossed the line with Alex, and for that, I'm truly sorry- DIANA My mind is made up. BETHANY But this is awful. This is seriously going to damage my career. DIANA Oh, it's a very positive letter of recommendation. BETHANY But what will people think, knowing that I couldn't hold a job with one of the best designers in the country? DIANA Just tell them I was impossible to work with, and you quit. BETHANY Creative people at the top of their game are always impossible to work with. This makes me look weak and unprofessional. DIANA I'm sorry. And if you can't survive this, well, perhaps you don't belong in our business. BETHANY Diana... BETHANY Please. DIANA No. BETHANY Unbelievable. BETHANY Diana... BETHANY You're going to regret this. CHARLIE How is she? TESSA Well, she's stopped crying. But she didn't touch the latte I brought her. CHARLIE Okay, well, I'm going to try and get some food into her. TESSA Good luck. I'll be at the office if you need anything. CHARLIE Okay, thanks. CHARLIE Junie? Sweetheart? Can I come in? CHARLIE You need to eat. JUNE I'm not hungry. CHARLIE Suit yourself. CHARLIE You need to read this. JUNE Read what? JUNE That's Mom's handwriting. CHARLIE She wrote it to you... before she died. She intended for you to read it on your wedding day, but, um CHARLIE I think she would have wanted you to read it now. KATHRYN Dearest June KATHRYN I wish you so much happiness today, my darling daughter, on the glorious journey you're about to begin. A loving husband KATHRYN a strong marriage, a home of your own KATHRYN motherhood-- I wish all of that for you, because I have known how wonderful it is. I know we've talked about this day a million times and how perfect it would be, but nothing is perfect, June. KATHRYN Life is full of the unexpected. Embrace it. And remember, on this special day, only KATHRYN one thing really matters KATHRYN pledging to share your life to the one you love. If you truly love him, all the other details are immaterial, and it will be, without question, the most beautiful day of your life. I'm smiling right now at the thought of it. JUNE Oh, Dad. ALEX How close are you? JUNE Pretty close. I took a shortcut. I think. ALEX Did you take a ALEX left at the split in the path? JUNE I think so. I've been so confused. ALEX Yeah, I know. JUNE But not anymore. JUNE There you are! I see you! JUNE I really, truly see you. Can you forgive me? ALEX There's nothing to forgive. JUNE I am so, so sorry I made this all about the wedding. ALEX I'm sorry I didn't step up to the plate like I should have. JUNE I just felt like I was letting Mom down, betraying her somehow by not having the wedding we always dreamed about. JUNE But... JUNE I know now I could never let her down, not JUNE O/S if I'm with you. JUNE So, Alex Blackwell... ALEX What are you doing? JUNE Will you marry me? ALEX Yes. DIANA It's all coming together, huh? JUNE Yeah, it is. JUNE Listen, thank you for letting us be here the day before to set up JUNE and make everything perfect. JUNE As perfect as we can. DIANA Can you spare a minute? JUNE Uh, yeah. Sure. DIANA In here. JUNE Okay. ALEX Whoa, whoa, no, hey. ALEX Can I see you the day before the wedding? JUNE It's okay. ALEX Are you sure? JUNE Yeah. ALEX Are you sure? JUNE What's happening? ALEX I don't know. ALEX You wanted to talk to me? DIANA Yeah. I owe you both a profound apology. For the things that I've done, said, thought. DIANA It's not easy to watch your only son DIANA grow up and come into his own DIANA and to accept the fact that there's another woman now DIANA who, inevitably, will be more important than you are. ALEX Mom, you don't have to-- DIANA No, no, I'm not DIANA saying this as a sympathy bid or an explanation. I... There's no excuse for the way I behaved. DIANA But I don't like to dwell on things DIANA that have been. I'd like to look to the future, and so I'd like to ask a favor of both of you. Alex... DIANA I wonder if you'd DIANA consider... giving this to June as her wedding ring. ALEX Is that... Is that Grandma's ring? DIANA My mother's. And June... DIANA Would you honor DIANA our family and wear it? JUNE I also want to look to the future. I mean, that's what tomorrow is all about. JUNE And JUNE I meant it when I said that I want to feel more connected to you. This ring won't magically do that... DIANA I know, believe me. But I was hoping maybe it was a first step? JUNE It is. And I'd be honored to wear it. DIANA Well, you can always have it sized, but, um, maybe... JUNE It fits perfectly. DIANA Welcome to the family. BETHANY Can I speak to Reverend Farnsworth, please? Reverend Farnsworth, hi. This is Bethany Barnard, Diana Blackwell's assistant. BETHANY We apologize for the short notice, but there's been a change of plans... RICHARD Don't worry. Everything's going to be fine. ALEX Were you this nervous on your wedding day? RICHARD Oh, considerably more. RICHARD But, then, I was marrying a force of nature. ALEX It really didn't hit me until this morning what I'm about to do. It's huge. RICHARD Yeah, as huge as it gets. ALEX What if I'm no good at it? What if I'm no good at being married? RICHARD Somehow most of us just figure it out as we go along. ALEX I just want to be the best husband that I can. RICHARD Well, you just remind yourself of that every day, and with luck, you will be. TESSA Look at this. You're a sea of calm, and I'm the one with wedding jitters. TESSA You are going to be the most splendiferous bride. JUNE Mom used to say that. TESSA And she was right. MATT Uh, hey. MATT I don't want to go all four-alarm fire on you guys, but MATT I was supposed to liaise with the minister MATT when he got here, and he hasn't shown up. DIANA Reverend Farnsworth, how could you possibly be in California visiting your sister when you are supposed to be here? DIANA I see. Well, have a nice visit. DIANA My assistant called and told him the wedding had been canceled. ALEX Bethany? DIANA This is a disaster. DIANA Welcome, everyone. Thank you so much for coming today. DIANA Unfortunately, there have been some wires crossed, and as a result, we don't have a minister to officiate the ceremony. DIANA So, regrettably DIANA we are going to have to reschedule the wedding. PAULO Mrs. Blackwell PAULO please, let me make just one quick call, okay? DIANA Sure. PAULO One-- one quick call. CHARLIE Isn't there some way, on the Internet, that we can designate a minister for a day? MATT Let me Google it. DIANA Crisis averted. PAULO He was about to go off to a golf game, but I caught him just in time. Cousin Louie is on his way. JUNE June, the January bride. Who would have thought? CHARLIE Wow. You know, it's, uh... Your mom was right. You're going on a glorious adventure. You ready? JUNE Never been more ready for anything in my life. CHARLIE I have just one wish for you today. JUNE What? CHARLIE That you and Alex will be as happy together as your mother and I were. JUNE Oh, Dad. CHARLIE Did I ever tell you I have the greatest daughter in the world? JUNE Only because she has the greatest dad in the world. CHARLIE I'm gonna miss her something fierce. JUNE Okay, stop, or I'm going to ruin my mascara. JUNE Okay, Mom's watching. Let's do her proud. LUIGI Friends LUIGI and family LUIGI we are gathered here to celebrate a wonderful occasion, the marriage of Alex Blackwell and June Fraser. LUIGI Every wedding LUIGI like every marriage LUIGI takes its own shape. LUIGI Today we have the wedding LUIGI but from this day on LUIGI Alex and June LUIGI will have their marriage.

JUNE Alex, I love you with my whole heart. Getting to this moment has been challenging. JUNE But I am JUNE so happy to be standing here facing you JUNE knowing that we get to JUNE share our lives together. LUIGI Do you, Alex LUIGI take June to be LUIGI your lawfully wedded wife?
