As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Jessica Lowndes, a successful designer, is called in by her boss, Louise Pitre, for an emergency assignment. A bridal magazine needs reshoots for their Christmas wedding campaign, and the famous photographer Christopher Russell is flying in to assist them. The only problem is Jessica and Chris were college sweethearts until he took an internship in Paris and the distance broke them up. Reunited at Christmas, while planning a bridal photo shoot, means anything can happen. . .There are two main problems with this Hallmark Christmas flick: Jessica Lowndes gives a very low energy performance, and the story isn't captivating enough. The alternative love interests for both leads aren't really written to have any major flaws, so besides their previous history, there's no real reason for the leads to be pushed towards each other. If you're like me and will watch anything remotely related to the holiday, you can absolutely watch Merry Matrimony. It won't hurt you, besides giving you a cavity, but it probably won't be one of your favorites you watch every year. You'll need a more captivating lead, like Candace Cameron Bure or Lacey Chabert, for that.

I absolutely loved this hallmark movie!! It is one of my favorites to watch during the Christmas season. I would love to see a sequel just to get an update on the characters. I thought the plot was very sweet and I wasn't able to predict the events that happened like I normally can In a hallmark film. The movie was the perfect amount of cheesiness and Christmas spirit!

A party planner's boyfriend leaves for Europe. Years later they reunite on a project. Of course you know what will happen. Most hallmark movies are predictable so the fun is seeing how things evolve. Unfortunately it's kind of too obvious and strained from the start. By the time they get together you kind of want to change channels.Jessica Lowndes is pretty in a Megan Fox way. So she isn't quite right for this kind of sweet Hallmark romance Christmas movie. She is better as the bad girl as in a Mother's Nightmare. Also she is too pretty to be dumped. The actor Christopher Russell is a bit mannequin like just grinning and not showing much range.

Dear wife and I are watching this movie as we speak....type...whatever. Geez...this Jessica Lowndes chick couldn't act her way out of a paper bag. Gorgeous, though. Like watching an "adult" movie where everyone has their clothes on. I'm really surprised Hallmark let this movie make it to broadcast. This is one that likely won't be repeated in future years. Wow. Bad. Really bad. The entire premise of the plot would be pretty good if not for the distractingly bad acting by the principal actress. And the constant "upspeak" where she delivers her lines like everything's a question. Maddening. So, now, IMDb wants 4 more lines of text. Let's see...other actors are fairly good, especially the "secondary" actors. Main actors are fine...with the exception of Jessica L. Other'n all that, production quality, setting, etc. are excellent Hallmark quality.
