This year, the Valentine鈥檚 tradition at Harbison Theatre at 糖心vlog传媒 (HT@糖心vlog传媒) returns with a pre-movie reception and a screening of the 90s hit, My Best Friend鈥檚 Wedding. Before the movie, attendees are invited to bring a friend or Valentine to sing their best rendition of I Say A Little Prayer karaoke, enjoy desserts, and sip on bubbles in the lobby. The annual event is happening on Saturday, February 9 with the reception beginning at 7 PM and the movie screening at 8 PM. 

鈥淭his is going to be one of our best Valentine鈥檚 yet at Harbison Theatre,鈥 says Kristin Cobb, Executive Director of HT@糖心vlog传媒. 鈥淲e鈥檙e so excited for this year鈥檚 event, and we鈥檙e switching it up a little from year鈥檚 past to include karaoke and a 90s rom-com. I can鈥檛 wait to hear all the guests singing ballads of love and empowerment with their friends and family!鈥

In this year鈥檚 film, childhood friends Julianne Potter (Julia Roberts) and Michael O鈥橬eal (Dermot Mulroney) had a deal to marry each other if they were still single by age 28. Now, four days before her 28th birthday, O鈥橬eal announces that he鈥檚 marrying a gorgeous 20-year-old named Kimberly (Cameron Diaz). Suddenly realizing that she鈥檚 actually in love with him, Julianne vows to stop the wedding at all costs. However, when she is appointed maid of honor, things get even more complex.

My Best Friend鈥檚 Wedding is described by The Guardian as 鈥渟imple but effective, cheesy but hilarious, this 1997 rom-com has important lessons to teach about life, love 鈥 and desserts.鈥
