Wedding Unplanned

Wedding Unplanned (Jour J, 2017) is a French romantic comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Mathias gets snared by his own lie when his fiancée Alexia hires a wedding planner — never realizing the business card belongs to the very woman Mathias has been seeing on the side.

So the wedding he never wanted is now being organized by his mistress. All he can do is pray the two women never become friends and that the whole charade holds together until the big day. The closer the ceremony gets, the tighter the farce pulls: more lies, fewer exits, and one impossible choice he keeps dodging. Reem Kherici, who plays Mathias, also directed.

This is broad situational comedy in the vein of late-2010s mainstream French crowd-pleasers — no depth intended, just a brisk pace and a parade of cringe-worthy near-misses. It works as easy evening viewing for anyone willing to forgive a plot built entirely on coincidence. Stream Wedding Unplanned (2017) online on iFILM.
