George Banks is an upper-middle-class owner of an athletic shoe company in San Marino, California, whose 22-year-old daughter Annie has decided to marry a man from an upper-class family from Bel-Air, despite knowing each other only three months. George can't think of what life would be like without his daughter and becomes slightly overwhelmed and neurotic, although his wife tries to make him happy for Annie. When the wedding takes place at their home, along with a wedding planner with an accent so thick, he's often hard to understand, trying to take over the wedding planning, George tries to handle the fact that his daughter has grown up and has a life of her own.
