A comedic romp about a man's disastrous marriage and honeymoon, built on romantic mishap and irreverent humor rather than genuine warmth.

Eddie, the 40-year-old confirmed bachelor finally says "I do" to the beautiful and sexy Lila. But during their honeymoon in Mexico, the woman of his dreams turns out to be a total nightmare, and the guy who could never pull the trigger realizes he’s jumped the gun.
