From Jones|Hope|Wooten, the same trio who brought us /The Dixie Swim Club/, recently enjoyed by CVLT audiences, comes the story of four girlfriends, dateless in high school, who swear each will be members of the other's wedding.

If you've ever elbowed a stranger out of the way to catch a bride's bouquet, seriously questioned the mental stability of the duo saying "I do," or been forced to wear the world's ugliest bridesmaid dress then this deliciously funny comedy is definitely for you… and your dearly beloved!
