ABOUT DESTINATION WEDDING
DESTINATION WEDDING reunites two of Hollywood’s most adored stars, Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder. As the socially awkward Frank (Keanu) and Lindsay (Winona), the pair meets on their way to a mutual friends’ destination wedding in California wine country. They soon discover they have a lot in common: both hate the bride, the groom, the wedding, themselves, and most especially each other. While their snarkiness isolates Frank and Lindsay from the other guest, the weekend’s events conspire to repeatedly force the unlikely pair together. Frank and Lindsay find that if you verbally spar with someone long enough, anything can happen. When debate gives way to desire, they must decide which is stronger: their hearts or their common sense.
