7.8 stars.
I think the reason it's better for me is because I like Autumn Reeser the most out of the three female leads of Wedding Veil. The Italian cityscape and countryside was very welcoming. I don't know how much was filmed in Italy, but let's just go with it, because it appears authentic. This film's magic is in the setting, the charm and energy of the people, and the interactions between the leads. Reeser is single and teaching art history to a bunch of Italian college students who are difficult to please. Her secondary mission is to trace the origin of the Veil. She meets a wonderful Italian man and they fall in love.
I must note there are too many coincidences with him and his family. How many times can you run into the same guy in a city that size, only to find out his family is directly linked to this mysterious artifact (the veil) that grants that you will find true love? However, this story is leaning toward the veil being magical because it's the veil itself that grants true love to those who come in contact with it. So the people don't find true love, the veil creates true love. Hard to explain. Basically, in other words, the veil is like love potion #9. If you drink the potion, you fall in love with that person, so it is with the veil, if you touch it or have it in your possession, you fall in love with someone in close proximity. The veil must be present in that location for love to happen there. At least that's what I've witnessed so far. This may change as I view additional installments of this series.
The family is wonderful, they are classic Italians. They have a multi-generational family business, they share all activities, including lunch every day. They chat, laugh, and argue a lot - vintage Italian. She joins him and his family for lunch and they spend a lot of time together, and the family loves her right away.
Good feeling with this one. I like it better than the first.
