Reception
Serena Donadoni of the The Village Voice wrote that Tunick "infuses his debut narrative feature with a sunny optimism that gives an emotional drama the air of escapism."[2]
Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times wrote, "That it involves gay nuptials makes this sluggish talkfest feel like even more of a missed opportunity; something livelier and more compelling was in order."[3]
Stephen Farber of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that while the cast "helps to make the weak drama more watchable than it has any right to be", the " seasoned pros can only do so much to animate the earnest, antiseptic script."[4]
