Sequel to the indie hit, "Once I Was a Beehive" and set about two years after that film took place. The young women and their leaders have grown up (some more than others), and Bree Carrington’s surprise engagement and the whirlwind of wedding planning brings them all back together – with hilarious and touching results.
