Ryan Paevey is a very familiar Hallmark face (a veteran?), and one of the better actors that the network has in it's ever-expanding stable of stars. Jocelyn Hudon is one of the up-and-coming Hallmark stars, a kind of new generation after the likes of Lacey Chabert, Cindy Busby, Nicki DeLoach and company, and very easy on the eye.
The two are great in 'From Friend to Fiancé' which tells the story of Jess (Hudon), a wedding planner extraordinaire, who is called upon to plan her best friend Ted's wedding. It turns out that Ted (Paevey) is marrying the high school mean girl, played by Kelly Kruger. It turns out that Jess might have feelings for Ted, which complicates the situation. For a change, the "other woman" was actually not mean and quite relatable: definitely not the caricature that these roles seem to turn out to be. Special mention to Derek McGrath, who was great. Good chemistry between Paevey and Hudon.
A different approach to the standard Hallmark film, and enjoyable.
