Confetti
It follows three couples, as they plan and execute their wedding, in a magazine-sponsored competition for 'Most Original Wedding of the Year'. Aided by two professional wedding planners, each couple es with a themed ceremony appropriate to their lifestyle or passions - one's a Busby Berkley musical, another uses a tennis motif, and the last couple are nudists. As the big day draws near stress levels rise, tempers boil, and calamity ensues.
