SYNOPSIS:
Five very different women come together at a Knoxville, TN wedding as bridesmaids who have very little regard for the bride…but all have a common acquaintance in the careless, callous Tommy Valentine, a one man heart wrecking crew who challenges their hopes of having a meaningful relationship. They’ve all escaped the wedding reception and come together in the maid of honor’s bedroom where they joyously share this common bond in a wickedly funny, irreverent and touching celebration of the women's spirit.

CAST DETAILS:
- Meredith Marlowe: The bride's younger pot-smoking sister who is very sarcastic and much annoyed with the whole fiasco downstairs. Sporting an outwardly tough attitude, she has a lot of hurt and insecurity to hide.
- Georgeanne Darby: The bride's "ugly sidekick" in middle school. Accepted the invite to be a bridesmaid even though her relationship with the bride is strained because the bride's boyfriend once knocked Georgeanne up.
- Trisha: One of the bride's former friends with a supposed bad reputation. She's been with a lot of guys, but not any that measure up. She is, however, a mainstream beauty.
- Frances: The very naive and religious cousin of the bride.
- Mindy McClure: The groom's clumsy, outspoken lesbian sister.
- Tripp Davenport (Griffen Lyle Davenport the third): An usher who falls for Trisha. The only male in the show.
