As a housewife, wife and manager of a family business, Anne Stadler has everything under control. So the wedding of her only daughter Lisette should be a fantastic event, as she herself was not allowed to experience it. With Elan Anne organizes in the contemplative Black Forest village a social event of the first order, with church blessing, many guests and a big stag party. But in the middle of the preparations, she caught her godfather Gerd in the family-owned sawmill at the fling. When finally Arno Freywald appears, father of the groom Daniel and impostor, the cards are shuffled.
