Ian Carmichael and Janette Scott star in this sparkling, utterly irresistible romantic comedy – a major project for Roy Boulting, who with twin brother John formed one of post-war Britain's most successful and influential film partnerships. Also featuring comedy greats Terry-Thomas, Joyce Grenfell, Irene Handl and John Le Mesurier, Happy Is the Bride is featured in a brand-new transfer from original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

David proposes to Janet in the middle of a cricket match, a prospect less-than-enthusiastically received by Janet's prosperous father. The thought of his daughter's marriage to a young man of unimpressive means and hazy future is accepted with dubious grace, and the two lovebirds find romance being replaced by a regiment of interfering relatives!
