‘THE WEDDING VEIL’: ONE STORY OF A THREE PART LOVE STORY
Though unusual for its network, Hallmark takes a little bit of a risk (not in a “big” way) and tries its hand at telling one part of a three part story in The Wedding Veil. Connected by the legend of the titular wedding piece and the best friends who discover it.

Based on a novel called There Goes the Bride, this film is part one of a trilogy that will give each best friend their own story. Lacey Chabert’s kicks everything off with an installment that is incredibly sweet. What’s more interesting about some of the films from this network, outside of the connecting stories, is the script. Recently they’ve been giving some more honest conversations and this shows. Specific to this film, I appreciate the gentle struggle it shows for one of the main characters. It’s honest on both sides and I respect this. I also can relate to parts of these characters, more so in their struggle rather than the life they live. It’s refreshing and if you’ve liked films like A Little Daytime Drama or Love on the Sidelines (both from Hallmark), you may like this one which is by the same writing duo (Judith Berg, Sandra Berg). the wedding veil
The film has an extremely romantic premise. Plus, anyone who likes Chabert will love seeing her here. What most stands out to me is that this is a different, but still the same, direction for Hallmark. Odd to say I know, but I’m not sure how to explain it. I think it’s more a “feeling” than anything that one can explain. This also reminds me a little bit of the TV film The Wedding Dress, only in this we don’t have generation storytelling. However, there is still charm and really good moments.

I enjoyed reading your post. I hope I’ll be able to find the film and watch it. I am a fan of Lacey Chabert and I love how this film will be a trilogy.
Hi, Carlyn! How are you doing? Hope well. :) Hope you can also see this one! If you like Lacey, you’ll enjoy this one. Let me know what you think if you do and thanks for reading!
This was a cute movie! I enjoyed it, plus I couldn’t help but notice how stunning the wardrobe was. I’m definitely curious about the other movies in this trilogy.
I really enjoyed this one as well, Chanel! Very curious to watch the others (did you see them?), which are on my DVR, but I haven’t watched them. Not yet anyway. :)
