My Kuya's Wedding is a 2007 Philippine romantic comedy film directed by Topel Lee and starring Maja Salvador, Pauleen Luna and Ryan Agoncillo.[1]
Plot
[edit]Kat (Maja Salvador) is deeply attached to her brother Jeff (Ryan Agoncillo), who has worked abroad to support her education. As Jeff prepares to marry Heidi (Pauleen Luna), Kat becomes increasingly anxious about the upcoming changes in their relationship.
When Jeff returns to the Philippines, Kat attends the traditional pamamanhikan—the formal visiting of the groom’s family by the bride’s relatives—in the province, intent on disrupting the ceremony and uncovering unsavoury details about Heidi’s family.
As Kat executes a series of comic schemes—including planting seeds of doubt and causing deliberate awkward moments—she enlists the help of her flamboyant best friend Vi (IC Mendoza)
However, things take an unexpected turn when she begins developing feelings for Aris (Jason Abalos), Heidi’s brother and a former reality show contestant, complicating her original plans
With Jeff’s marriage looming, Kat faces a dilemma: avenge her perceived betrayal or accept that love—both familial and romantic—can evolve. In a heartfelt realisation, she learns to let go and embrace the idea of a broader family.[2]
