Storyline
What is worse than being asked to be the Best Man and Bridesmaid with a person you can't stand? That's what Barrett, a Professor of poetry studies and Jack, an aging ex-musician are about to find out when their best friends Naomi and Simon decide to (finally) get married. But what should be a long engagement is cut short when the happy couple decide to get married in just 4 weeks! Suddenly, Barrett and Jack are forced to put aside their differences to ensure the wedding comes together. Through their love of music and poetry, the two begin the slow journey to understand each other. But can they really trust one another enough to work together to pull off the wedding, and create a wedding gift that truly honours Naomi and Simon's love?
