Tuscan Wedding

Toscaanse Bruiloft (original title)

You only marry twice!

Sanne runs a wedding-planning business with her father and mother in a beautiful spot in Tuscany. Sadly, after a short, failed marriage, she can't seem to find that second man – one who'll be right for ever. That's certainly not divorce lawyer Jeroen, who has come to prepare the wedding of his best friend Bob, a cosmetic surgeon, to hockey star Lisa. Jeroen doesn't believe in marriage, but Sanne discovers that behind his cynical attitude there is a nice man after all. Sanne and Jeroen fall in love – until she discovers that he recently slept with the bride-to-be, Lisa, a discovery that almost blows Bob and Lisa's planned wedding apart and leads Sanne to break up with Jeroen.
Meanwhile, Sanne's long-divorced parents and Lisa's parents, all single and in their fifties, are also looking for new happiness – but then Sanne's father Tom has a heart attack. Shortly before Tom's death, Sanne marries her parents to each other for the second time.
In the grief that follows, Sanne seeks comfort with the Italian Camillio. She lets herself be talked into marrying him, until Jeroen turns up again about his own planned wedding to Lisa's sister Dominique. At their wedding party it turns out that Bob and Lisa didn't make it, that Lisa's parents have found each other again, and that the flame between Sanne and the now-married Jeroen is far from extinguished.
