A Costa Rican Wedding on Hallmark Channel
According to the official synopsis, West Coast surf swells and warm sand are just what the doctor ordered for Emily (Fish) as she tries to get over her latest breakup. Meanwhile, standing next to her best friend, Phoebe (Brittany Carel) as her aid of honor is a dream come true. However, it quickly turns into a nightmare when a group of rascally monkeys steal Emily’s bag – and the priceless, heirloom wedding rings she was holding onto.
Desperate to forgo her clumsy reputation and not be responsible for ruining the wedding, Emily teams up with an unlikely aide, Ryan (Russell), the best man and her longtime rival. Meanwhile, as a local tour guide, Ryan believes he knows the incredible land of this tropical country, but maybe not as well as he thought.
