When Della, a Southern baker with strong Christian values, is asked to bake a wedding cake for her late best friend’s daughter—who’s marrying another woman—her world is turned upside down. What follows is a tender, funny, and complicated reckoning between faith and friendship, love and tradition. Written by Bekah Brunstetter (This is Us),this warm and poignant comedy invites us to the kitchen table to explore what happens when our hearts and beliefs collide—and reminds us that sometimes the sweetest acts of courage are also the most human.
