Once Upon A Bride
If Elaine hadn't wanted to get married again none of this would have happened.
But she was forty-three now, had been divorced from Lloyd for two years, and was tired of pretending she was happy on her own.
Then she'd met widower Martin Schiffman, a sweet, unassuming man who moonlighted as an actor at the summer playhouse in the Berkshires of Massachusetts.

The women are more than happy to help their dear friend Elaine, but when they realize the scarcity of resources for a second wedding, these talented women decide to turn an opportunity to help their friend into a saavy business decision: a wedding planner service for second-time brides.
