Film Overview

The movie offers a heartwarming tale about love, fate, and 2nd possibilities set against the jubilant background of Christmas.

Plot
The movie begins with Rebecca Wesley being fired from her task just days prior to Christmas. Not having any other strategies, she decides to go house for the Christmas vacations for her best friend, Allison's wedding. Rebecca dreads the concept, as Allison is wedding Rebecca's ex-boyfriend, Chad. Upon getting house, Rebecca ends up being nostalgic remembering her small-town life, the happiness of Christmas, and her previous relationship with Chad.

Twisted Fate
Shot in a Groundhog Day-esque design, "A Christmas Wedding Date" adds a distinct twist to the plot. The twist arrives when Rebecca chooses to treat herself to a relaxing day at the day spa prior to the wedding event. When she leaves the day spa, she bumps into a magical lady who offers her a pin. From that day forth, Rebecca gets up to relive the day of the wedding once again and again. Every day, she gets up listening to Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime" and has to face the emotions of seeing her old flame remarrying.

Second Chances
Caught in a repeating cycle, Rebecca has the chance to play out the day in various ways, permitting comic scenes, cringeworthy synthetic pas, and the slow awareness that possibly her old life wasn't quite as bad as she kept in mind. Beyond just the comic relief, these repeated days offer Rebecca a chance to recognize what she left and what she genuinely wishes for. Rebecca gets to relive some old moments and create brand-new ones with her family, good friends, and Chad. She gets the chance to see how her life might have been had she never ever left her home town in pursuit of her Wall Street dreams.

Resolution
As Rebecca continues to relive the day, her perspective slowly changes, and she finds that there's more to life than her career. She slowly pertains to terms with her past and comprehends what her heart truly desires. By the time she lastly gets to relive the Christmas big day correctly, she's a changed woman. She fixes up with her friends and admits her sensations to Chad. The movie ends on a high note with Rebecca and Chad rekindling their previous love and beginning a new life together.
