Reviews Counted:27

Fresh:7

Rotten:20

Average Rating:2.1/10

Consensus: Instead of being light and charming, this romantic comedy is heavy-handed and contrived in its execution. Also, it's too unoriginal.

Rated: PG-13 [See Full Rating] for language and some sexual humor

Runtime: 1 hr 44 mins

Genre: Comedies

Theatrical Release:Jan 26, 2001 Wide

Box Office: $59,900,022

Synopsis: Jennifer Lopez is Mary, a peppy career woman who is great at what she does: she can turn any wedding into the perfect romantic event.

Jennifer Lopez is Mary, a peppy career woman who is great at what she does: she can turn any wedding into the perfect romantic event. Incurably single, she feels she's hit the jackpot when a chance encounter introduces her to Steve (Matthew McConaughey), a doctor. What she doesn't know--and what Steve doesn't reveal--is that he is soon to marry Fran (Bridgette Wilson-Sampras), one of her high-powered clients. As the attraction between Mary and Steve grows stronger, they are thrust into a series of comically unpleasant situations which force them to confront their feelings for one another. Custom-built for Lopez's undeniable star power, THE WEDDING PLANNER is an easygoing crowd pleaser. [More]

A mushy, fluffy romantic comedy for the not-too-fussy to curl up with. Essential viewing though if your name is Muriel...
