    Kevin and Lacey were at their best!

    It took me awhile to warm up to the original Wedding Veil movies. I liked them okay, but they weren't movies I was going to run right out and rewatch. I had no idea what to expect, coming into this one, but I absolutely loved it. We were told that these movies showed what happened after the wedding, and that's exactly what this showed. Avery and Peter were still in a very loving, healthy relationship, with life's normal bumps along the way. I typically don't enjoy Hallmark's movies about married couples, because they are usually about marriages in trouble. This was not the case, with "Expectations."

    Their marriage was in a healthy spot, they shared a ton of sweet kisses, hand holds, cuddles, and authentic conversations within a marriage. I found this movie to be extremely well acted, incredibly romantic, and one of the best Hallmark movies I've seen.

    I have read comments by people saying there was not a large enough plot point, but I disagree. What we saw was a healthy, functional, loving marriage. We were told we were going to see what happened after the wedding, and that's exactly what we saw.

    In my opinion, it is the best acted movie, by both Kevin McGarry and Lacey Chabert, and I've seen them all. :-)

    Fashion and friendship

    Watched the four parts of the series shown so far. The series contains the basic hallmarks of Hallmark, i.e. Simplicity and not loaded with suspense. Most of us don't want anything too loaded right now, especially not after the past two years and the price of gas. There are two things I like about the series. The second one is the fashion, the three friends have their own individual fashion, as different as their personalities are but the styles are trendy and unique, makes you want to watch. The number one feature of the series I like is the special friendship they have. Everyone needs a friend who will always be there, who understands them, who can read their emotions on the phone. The camaraderie and authenticity of the three leading ladies is enviable.

    After Happily Ever After

    Love that the trilogy is continuing and The Wedding Veil Expectations was a solid continuation of Peter and Avery's love story. What happens after happily ever after? This is it! I appreciated the Hallmark-style bedroom scenes as well. Not something we usually see!

    This honestly felt more like a pilot for a series to me but it was jammed into a 2 hour movie instead. Lots of good stories but it felt like some were given more focus than others. In particular, Grace and Clark's story didn't really have much depth.

    I'd love to see this series ongoing, perhaps with a mystery surrounding a different antique each time. But I also wonder if maybe this universe is better served as a 10 episode series than 3 movies a year. There are just so many characters now with lots of different stories to tell. It's clear that the actors and creatives enjoy working together and it's a great mix of talent.

    I would also love to see Kevin McGarry back on a series with creatives who love and appreciate his immense talent. I've seen all of Kevin and Lacey's prior movies and this is easily the best pairing I've seen for both of them. More of this please.

    good storyline and acting was good

    Nice story line after the first wedding veil movie. The acting by Lacey and Kevin was good - not overdone, very natural and his expressions were good. Hope they do another sequel next year. Did not like the storyline on the new guy in charge of the museum though. The costumes was so nice. The heigh difference between Kevin and Lacey was quite funny, but Lacey is a very petite woman so she looks small even with other actors. Nice movie to start the year 2023, i hope the rest of HM movies improve as i have no seen a good HM movie for quite a while. Kevin is my favourite Hallmark actor and hope he does more movies.

    Loved this movie

    Loved seeing a relationship after the wedding is over. The story was engaging and there were a lot of comedic moments and dramatic moments as well. Kevin and Lacey have great chemistry, which added to the appeal of the story. The acting was well done by everyone, especially by Kevin and Lacey. The women's friendship added to the story nicely, without taking over the main storyline. I liked seeing a continuation to a story that I really liked as well. It would be great if we could visit them again next year (hint, hint to TPTB). I really enjoyed this sequel to the Wedding Veil and would reccommend it to everyone, especially if you want to see something a bit different from Hallmark.

    • Trivia
      When Peter tells Avery that they should retrofit the house for earthquakes, Avery responds, "we never have earthquakes here," the "here" being Boston. The movie is actually filmed in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, which indeed is in an earthquake zone.
    • Quotes

      Avery: We just have to always make time for each other. You know? Flowers and date nights and... those... glances across a crowded room.

      Peter: Does the room have to be crowded?

      [Raises a book to hide his face, then lowers the book to show his eyes sneaking a peek back toward her]

      Peter: Oh, my!

      Avery: [Giggles] At least we know you're gonna be really good at the dad jokes.

      Peter: You know it!
