Film Synopsis

Mathias and Alexia have been together for several years, but one evening Mathias cannot help succumbing to the charms of the delightful Juliette after meeting her in a nightclub.  One thing leads to another and Mathias ends up being unfaithful to Alexia for the first time since they met.  The next day, Alexia is surprised to find Juliette's business card in Mathias's trousers.  It appears that Juliette is a wedding planner, so Alexia draws the obvious conclusion that Mathias is preparing to pop the question.  When Alexia broaches the matter with him Mathias has no alternative other than to admit that he intended proposing to her and planned to make use of Juliette's professional services to organise the wedding.  As the wedding preparations get under way, Mathias soon begins to get second thoughts and finds himself unable to choose between the two women.  Fortunately, his friend Ben is on hand to help him make the right decision...
