Have your life and eat it too.
Pippa McGee (Heather Graham) takes a weekend break from her free-wheeling life as a travel writer and toxic bachelor. She returns to her hometown to serve as yet another bridesmaid at yet another wedding. From the moment she gets off the plane, its disaster. Jet-lagged and behind schedule, Pippa makes a spectacle of herself, downing martinis and hitting on men. She struggles home tipsy. Only to discover that her widowed, tyrannical publishing mogul father has had a heart attack. Lying frail in his hospital bed, he has only one thing on his mind: he needs an editor for one of his magazines. Pippa volunteers, excited. What magazine? Travel? Politics? No. He needs her to run Wedding bells.
A Peter Pan story with an outrageous, charming, flawed heroine, Cake is about growing up - growing up with passion and heart and truth. To thine own self be true-but it's the self-part that tricky. Cake takes on the themes of love, family, friendships, and commitment, both skewering and celebrating the world of wedding fever along the way.
