Forty-eight hours before the wedding of the season, wedding planner Nora Vance gets the call every planner dreads: every single vendor has been double-booked - with a completely unrelated couple who happens to share a suspiciously similar name.
The flowers meant for a three-hundred-guest cathedral wedding arrive at a forty-person backyard in Astoria. The officiant is booked in two places at once. Two of Manhattan's most formidable society mothers - old friends turned thirty-year rivals - are one ice sculpture away from a public war. And a gossip columnist is circling with a notebook and impeccable timing. The Wedding Committee is a whip-smart, big-hearted ensemble comedy about chaos, old grudges, and the surprisingly short distance between disaster and exactly the wedding everyone actually needed.
