The Wedding Planner
A top San Francisco wedding planner races to orchestrate a flawless ceremony while battling her own heart when she unexpectedly falls for the charismatic groom she's supposed to be selling love to.
“A romantic comedy about love, destiny and other events you just can't plan for.”
Synopsis
Mary Fiore is San Francisco's most successful supplier of romance and glamor. She knows all the tricks and all the rules. But then she breaks the most important rule of all: she falls in love with the groom.

Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 2.7× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
