Adrienne Barbeau (on the east coast) and Eva Longoria (on the west coast) have headed casts of this crazy, slapstick farce which takes pre-wedding jitters to nightmare proportions. In a posh New York hotel, just before Walter and Wendy are scheduled to say "I do," Walter's zipper becomes attached to his bride's sister's dress during a last-minute act of infidelity. Meanwhile, Wendy is having a fling with the best man. This finely-tuned exercise in physical comedy zips from one hilarious situation to the next as all try to hide their exploits and make it to the church on time.

Involve a stuffy young lawyer, a hard drinking, man hungry housekeeper and a trio of beautiful young women, and you have the recipe for a laugh packed farce of twists, turns, puns and pratfalls as Tom strives mightily to compensate for Billy's "habitual" errors.
