One day before her marriage to a successful businessman, haughty socialite Tracy Lord is sure of her herself and her future. However, with the surprise arrival of ex-husband C.K. Dexter Haven and the tempting presence of tabloid reporter Mike Connor, Tracy’s perfect vision of herself is shaken to the core. It will take a bottle of champagne and a compromising situation to crack her forbidding exterior and reveal an understanding heart. This classic comedy of manners finds that sometimes getting what you want means learning to let go.
