The fractured Haines family attempts a reunion as the eldest son gets set to marry in Montreal. It is a wedding that no one really wants to attend. Barbara Haines (Kathleen Turner) is the forceful matriarch who shows up with wimpy boyfriend Albert (Wallace Shawn) in tow. However, Barbara’s ex-lover Tammy (Francis Fisher) is also at the wedding and since she helped raise the kid, she feels she has some matriarchal privileges as well. Tammy also has a lot of unresolved animosity towards Barbara that has yet to be settled. The younger members of the wedding party also manifest a number of their own issues that bubble up on the occasion of this dysfunctional family get-together as a loud, hilarious, disaster of a wedding ensues.
