Don't Hug Me, We're Married - Synopsis:
Set in a north woods bar in Bunyan Bay, Minnesota, plans are on tap for a double wedding. But before the nuptials transpire, we’ll have to deal with a surprise visitor, two un-Hallmark proposals, an over-zealous wedding planner, a stag and stagette party, uber-mosquitoes, a quirky male stripper, an unhappy bridesmaid, a gigantic hangover, a sexy cheerleader, a scary forest ranger, divorce fantasy camp, a rapping minister and the dreaded wedding dress. One small hitch before the hitchings, they can’t find anyone who will pay for the wedding. And who is getting married to whom? The answer will surprise, shock and tickle Don’t Hug Me audiences. Will anyone get cold feet? Would someone try to derail the wedding? What could possibly go wrong? A lot. Rest assured, nothing will go as wedding-planned in Bunyan Bay. With 16 original songs including, “The Greatest Love Song Ever,” “The Marriage Test,” “The Day that Bob Dylan Was Here,” and “We’re All Gonna Die.”
