More about UPtv's Planning on Forever
The narrative of Planning on Forever revolves around Emma, a Seattle-based professional event planner. When her sister requests Emma's last-minute assistance with her upcoming wedding, which is only six weeks away, at the very last minute, she makes an entrance only to run into Liam, a guy she had a bad first date with in the past.
Things get tricky when the bride-to-be and the groom are needed for a business arrangement and must leave immediately, leaving the responsibilities to plan the wedding in Liam and Emma's hands.
Compelled to act in place of the soon-to-be bride and groom, Emma and Liam dedicate the next few days to choosing flowers, cakes, and making other wedding-related preparations. As preconceptions vanish, the two realise they are far more similar than they had initially assumed.
However, things quickly turn around for Emma as she is immediately promoted to her dream job once she returns to Seattle. Caught in the middle of a dilemma, Emma must choose between her dream job and her new found love.
Don't miss the premiere of Planning on Forever this Sunday, June 26, 2022.
