Movie #2078 "The Wedding Veil Legacy" (Hallmark) The third in the trilogy of the wedding veil was this one --- at first it was a bit clunky with both characters being awkward in most of their first meetings. She's a new York provenance worker of art, and he is a chef opening up a new restaurant. She needs a caterer for her extravaganza and voila --- he's there!. But they don't really like each other at first (oh, that's original) Anyway, what pulled me in is that the backdrop city was NYC so I understood what she liked about the city, and as awkward as her characters usually are, there's something genuine about Alison Sweeney and she got me interested, as well. He is a bit too pretty and nice to believe but what the heck! Again there's a break up, but the exboyfriend isn't a bad guy, and the ending of their relationship is amicable, and that's nice to see in this world of ours where there's so much divisiveness already. But then, the film works on building up the next relationship, the forever one because of the promise of the wedding veil. The stage business (him buying art, her buying rugs and dealing with her business problems, and he with his restaurant problems) wasn't as interesting as the other two films, but I'm glad I waited to the end, because it was really a nice one to end the trilogy! Tied everything together (some would say too well?) I give this a 4 ,and I'm glad Lacey Chabert pushed the idea for the three of them to connect their stories like this. It worked out well.
