This Irish comedy is two dire weddings and a funereal pace as a desperate single mother (Sally Hawkins) marries a black immigrant in exchange for £8,000, and a neurotic middle-class beneficiary of the tiger economy re-marries the well-off bride he deserted. After the fraught ceremonies the two parties find they're double-booked for their receptions at a fancy hotel in fashionable Bray, south of Dublin. Predictable imbroglios ensue as the champagne, whiskey and Guinness flow, and feuding families intermingle with dumb immigration investigators. Nearly as bad as last month's Irish comedy, Leap Year.
