It's Mel and Joe's wedding weekend, but things aren't running as smoothly as they'd hoped. Before they can even make it down the aisle, Joe sees her in her dress, prompting Mel to trash it and get a new one. Plus, someone is injured during Joe's bachelor party, Mel's father is MIA, Marco's making the moves on Lennox in front of Zander and someone accidentally confesses a hidden secret.
Melissa is a grown-up former wild child of a political family who is now a local politician herself. When her sister ends up in prison and brother-in-law flees after a scandal hits, Mel must take responsibility for her teenaged niece Lennox and pre-adolescent nephew Ryder. Spread too thin to manage by herself, help comes in the unlikely form of Joe who, desperate for a job, moves in and becomes the family's manny.
