Confetti

In the glossy world of Confetti, a prestigious wedding magazine based in London, the stakes are as high as the paper’s glossy covers. The publication is run with swagger by Antoni Clarke and tempered by the long‑suffering chief editor Vivienne, whose sharp eye keeps the office humming with ambition and a dry, clever humor. When the magazine launches a bold competition—three couples must each stage an unforgettable wedding, the winners promised a brand‑new house and a coveted cover shoot—the staff’s polished veneer meets a whirlwind of creative chaos.

The first pair, Sam and Matt, cling to a vintage romance, dreaming of a Busby Berkeley‑style production that forces Sam to confront her own doubts about singing and dancing. Their dynamic is a tug‑of‑war between old‑fashioned love and the meddling of Sam’s domineering mother and attention‑seeking sister, while Matt wrestles with the prospect of re‑introducing Sam’s estranged father into the spotlight. Their story crackles with familial friction and the humor that comes from trying to keep a grand vision afloat.

Isabelle and Josef bring a more ruthless drive, their determination shadowed by hidden financial pressures that make the competition feel like a lifeline. Their meticulous planning is tinged with paranoia and a willingness to reshape themselves—Isabelle even contemplates a dramatic physical change—in the hope of tipping the judges’ favor. Their relationship teeters between fierce partnership and the sting of jealousy, especially as Josef watches Isabelle’s friendship with their tennis coach, Jesus, with growing unease.

The third duo, Joanna and Michael, challenge the very notion of a wedding’s presentation. Michael, a seasoned naturist, resists any suggestion that they should dress, while newly converted Joanna grapples with vulnerability and the pressure to appear on the magazine’s front cover. Their clash with Vivienne over how far to push the boundaries of visibility adds a layer of edgy, soulful comedy to the mix, highlighting the tension between personal authenticity and the glossy demands of the industry.
