Get Me to the Church On Time

The Bride: Willow Wilde is a sweet young woman deeply in love with her fiancé. She's trying really hard to behave politely for her rich new in-laws, and feeling a little put-upon. She doesn't really understand why people make such a big deal out of having casual sex with good friends -- she and her fiancé have been doing it all along! As long as everyone's happy and nobody's hiding anything. Her wedding has brought back some of her good friends from her wild college and house-sharing days. Some strange events with the preparations have made her suspicious that someone's trying to sabotage her wedding. She's determined that no one will spoil her wedding day, even if they have to elope with the minister and witnesses.

The Mother of the Bride: Amanda Wilde is still living the life of a free-love flower child, she tries to see the best in everyone she meets. She's happy to hear people's stories, to help them with their problems, and give explicit advice and demonstrations. She lives in a rural art/craft commune where she can live her ideals. She's determined to make sure her daughter is happy with her wedding and that no one snubs her or makes her feel inferior.

The Mother-in-law: Betta Strong is a woman who's hidden her wild youth well, but hasn't left it behind. She has it right there in her designer handbag. Marrying well redeemed her social image and provided her with cover for her continued adventures. She and her husband visit discreet little swinging parties together, and her work as a talent agent gives her opportunities to meet young men. She sees other women more as rivals or people to show off to than friends. Critical of the bride's family's "loose ways". She's proud of her son's healthy sex drive, but worried about his discretion and his dabbling with bisexuality. She's determined that nothing will stop her getting her son safely married off and settled down.
