The Wedding Date (2005) is a romantic comedy directed by Clare Kilner, centering on Kat Ellis (Debra Messing), a single woman living in New York. When her younger sister’s wedding approaches, Kat is dismayed to learn that her ex-fiancé, Jeffrey—who broke her heart—is going to be the best man. Determined not to face him alone and wanting to appear confident and in control, Kat makes the unconventional decision to hire a male escort to pose as her date.

She enlists the services of the suave and charming Nick Mercer (Dermot Mulroney), a professional escort who promises to be the perfect gentleman and play the role convincingly. As they travel to London for the wedding, Kat and Nick agree to maintain a strictly business relationship. However, once they arrive, Nick’s charisma and emotional intelligence begin to impress not only Kat’s family and friends but Kat herself as well.

During the wedding weekend, buried emotions rise to the surface. Kat is forced to confront unresolved feelings for her ex-fiancé, and tensions between family members reveal deeper issues. Meanwhile, Nick provides unexpected support and insight, helping Kat regain confidence and a sense of self-worth. As she begins to see him as more than just an escort, Kat is surprised by the genuine connection growing between them.

The story takes a turn when secrets about Jeffrey’s past come to light, including the real reason he ended things with Kat. These revelations force Kat to see her past through a new lens and re-evaluate what she wants in a relationship. At the same time, Nick, who has always kept his emotions guarded due to the nature of his work, finds himself developing real feelings for Kat—feelings that complicate his professional persona.

In the end, The Wedding Date explores themes of love, vulnerability, and self-empowerment. Kat learns that true happiness doesn’t come from trying to impress others but from embracing one’s own worth. The film concludes with Kat and Nick choosing honesty and emotional risk over appearances, hinting at a future built on authenticity rather than pretense. The film blends humor and heart, offering a feel-good romance with a twist of emotional depth.
