Storyline
In 1776, Angelique Demornay was set to marry her lover Malcolm against her father’s wishes. After Malcolm was sadly killed on the battlefield, Angelique died soon after of a broken heart. Jump to today! Jane and Brian are amateur ghost hunters who are also engaged to be married, and their destination wedding venue just happens to be the Wayside Inn, which once belonged to the Demornay family.

When strange occurrences start following the happy couple, Jane and her best friend Rachel learn that Angelique’s spirit never left the Wayside Inn! Not wanting anyone to have the happiness she was robbed of, Angelique will do whatever she can to stop this wedding!! But Brian and Jane have a plan to reunite Angelique with her lost love, Malcolm, whose spirit now inhabits a micro-pub built on the battlefield where he fell. By working together and giving Angelique and Malcolm the chance to complete their unfinished business, Jane and Brian just might get to have the wedding of their dreams!

Description
Back in 1776, the playful, bright, fiery ANGELIQUE was set to elope with her soulmate, Malcolm. With the urgency of her father pressing an arranged marriage on Angelique, there was a strong need for her to flee with Malcolm as soon as possible. However, tragedy struck when Malcolm died from injuries while fighting the British forces, and Angelique passed shortly thereafter. Her love for Malcolm and her unfinished business have kept her tethered to the place she died, now The Wayside Inn. Centuries later, whenever happy couples come in to be married, her envy turns to sadness, and she acts out in rebellion against the happiness that she was robbed of. Waiting patiently for her love to return to her, she is surprised when Jane shows up with her fiancé Brian, a man who bears an uncanny resemblance to Malcolm! This is the last straw for her, and she holds their wedding hostage until her one true love is returned to her.
