Storyline

Almost as soon as Jake and Cassie decide to get married on Christmas Eve, complications arise. Ex-con Leon Deeks arrives in town, and Jake is asked by the mayor to make him his top priority. At the same time, Jake's having trouble securing the wedding license since he can't find Cassie's documents proving her existence. There's also the difficulty in finding a wedding cake at the last minute. Last but not least, Jake's kids are upset: Brandon wants to spend time with his new girlfriend, and is feuding with his sister Lori. Meanwhile, Lori manages to lose Cassie's wedding ring.

Goofs

There are several continuity errors in the final scenes. Cassandra and Jake met when she came down the stairs of Grey House, but they are in the heritage centre when they both talk about falling in love when they first saw each other 'on these stairs' George talks about staying 'here' suggesting he is in Grey House, when he is still in the Heritage Centre. Watch for a couple more. . .

User Reviews

Beautifully magical and enchanting.

The third movie in The Good Witch film series is quite possibly the best one so far. It's set around Christmas time which makes everything seem all the more magical and then add in a wedding. It's incredibly exciting to finally see Cassie and Jake coming together in holy matrimony and the beginnings of their new little family.

There are of course the usual challenges this time in the form of poor time management and a bank robber. It adds another emotional layer to the film and makes you root for their success. Nobody wants to see anybody fail around Christmas and you can't help but hope for a special Christmas miracle. I don't care how many clichés they squeeze into these movies as I just can't get enough of their feel good optimism.
