Father of the Bride follows the misadventures of a father as he prepares for the wedding of his only daughter. Stanley Banks is just your ordinary suburban dad. He’s the kind of guy who believes that weddings are a simple affair in which two people get married. But when daddy’s little girl Kay announces her engagement out of nowhere, Mr. Banks learns that one of the young men he has seen occasionally about the house is about to become his son-in-law. Mrs. Banks and her sons are happy, but Mr. Banks feels like his life has been turned upside down. The groom-to-be, Buckley Dunstan, appears on the scene and Mr. Banks realizes that the engagement is serious. Buckley and Kay don’t want a “big” wedding – just a simple affair with a few friends! Before long, though, that the “few” friends idea is out. Then trouble really begins. The guest list grows larger each day, a caterer is called in, florists, furniture movers and dressmakers take over, and the Banks household is soon caught in turmoil – not to mention spiralling costs. When Kay, in a fit of temper, calls off the wedding, everyone’s patience snaps. But all is set right, and the wedding (despite more last-minute crises) comes off beautifully. In the end, the father of the bride is a happy, proud man, glad that the wedding is over, but knowing too that it was worth all the money and aggravation to start his daughter off so handsomely on the road to married life. Father of the Bride continues to touch the hearts of new generations of fathers, daughters and families as we carry on with the age-old challenges of coming to terms with love and marriage.
