Simon Steinberg, a major movie producer, and Blaire Scott, an award-winning television writer, are among the most respected couples in Hollywood. They have defied the cliches, keeping their marraige together for decades. Their children-Samantha, Scott, & Allegra-are successful & happy, but must face the challenges we fear for our own children as well.
As an attorney for the stars, twenty-nine-year-old Allegra Steinberg is used to negotiating major movie deals, and fielding phone calls at all hours of the day & night. But she has little time for a private life-until a chance encounter w/ a New York writer turns her life upside down. Suddenly, Allegra finds herself planning a wedding at her parents' Bel Air home.
As preparations begin for a September ceremony, surprise announcements and ever-increasing anxiety bring out the best & worst in everyone. But as couples in each generation of the Steinberg family struggle with broken vows & ner hopes, the real meaning of Allegra's wedding emerges. For the bride, the ceremony is a bridge between her past & her future. For her parents, it is a reminder of the bond that holds them all together. And for both families, it is an opportunity for reconciliation, and new hope.
