‘WEDDING AT GRACELAND’
A Hallmark Channel Original Movie World Premiere
Saturday, June 1 (9 p.m. ET/PT)
Starring: Kellie Picker, Wes Brown, Priscilla Presley, Lee Brice
Though separated for years, Laurel Couper (Pickler) and Clay Sheppard (Brown) have known one another since childhood, so it’s no surprise that five months after meeting again at Graceland last Christmas they’re deeply in love and ready for marriage. Sentimental reasons dictate the one place to tie the knot is Graceland’s much-in-demand Chapel, meaning the couple either has to wait a year...or somehow pull together a wedding on the one available date only three weeks away. Three weeks it is, setting in motion a mad scramble to the altar, complicated by competing sets of well-meaning parents, each claiming to know what’s best for the couple. In this battle of traditions -- extravagant southern vs. classic sophisticated -- can Laurel and Clay somehow please everyone and still please themselves in time for a June wedding?

Now dealing with the guy who broke her heart, not to mention ten extra relatives showing up, Annalise really feels the pressure when an investor arrives without warning. Luckily, she and Brad work through their awkwardness and he helps out by taking the potential financier river rafting to give Annalise time to execute a superb wedding. Love is everywhere, especially when Mick and Olivia celebrate the 25th anniversary of their first date with surprises galore.
