Betsy's Wedding
1990 · 1h 34m · Comedy, Romance · United States of America, Germany · Rated R (US)
The wedding picture doesn't always tell the real story.
Offbeat fashion student Betsy Hopper and her straight-laced investment-banker fiancé Jake Lovell just want an intimate little wedding reception, but Betsy's father Eddie, a Long Island construction contractor, feels so threatened by Jake's rich WASP parents that he blows the ceremony up into a bank-breaking showpiece, sending his wife Lola into a financial panic.
