Alex Whitman is a New Yorker sent to Las Vegas to oversee a construction project. There he meets Isabel Fuentes, and some serious chemistry brings them together for one night. But Alex doesn't see Isabel again until three months later, when he learns that she is pregnant. On a whim and a prayer, he proposes. However, there's more to marriage than a Vegas chapel and an Elvis impersonator, as Alex and Isabel soon learn in this perfect date movie.

Thoughts
I've seen this before, I think, but couldn't remember much about it. Couldn't get much further than the twenty minute rule, though, because a) he's just being Chandler, and I've seen that role already, and b) they really don't have any chemistry or make sense as a couple. So, blah, probably could have got through it but life's too short, right?
