Goldie strives to create the perfect wedding day for her sister against a backdrop of events worthy of the greatest drama ever to be produced on a stage.

The perfect food must be selected along with the orchestra, the venue, and the wine.
Oh, wait! She forgot about the Volstead Act. However is she to serve wine at a public gathering during prohibition with a policeman at her side? Oh, bother! Well, she’ll just have to think of something.
Then there is the matter of where best to position everyone for the supper afterward so as to limit the potential number of heated arguments. Of course, which rooms should be assigned to particular relatives to avoid uncomfortable encounters in the hall once too many refreshments have been consumed was critical. At least that task should be easy given that the groom only just finished overseeing the construction of a new hotel.
