When CJ (Enchong Dee), the youngest of the family, announced that he is getting married, his sister Gabbie (Shaina Magdayao), convinces the other sisters to come back home for the wedding as requested by their mother Grace (Coney Reyes). Teddie (Toni Gonzaga), the eldest, is working as a waitress and housekeeper in Madrid; the second sister Bobbie (Bea Alonzo), works as a corporate communications manager in New York and is living with her boyfriend Tristan (Sam Milby) and his daughter Trixie (Samantha Faytaren); the third sister Alex (Ms. Angel Locsin) is living independently and works as a film director; while Gabbie is a school teacher.
Bobbie, having a difficult relationship with Trixie, is pressured by the eagerness of Tristan to get married but she informs him that they should pave way for CJ first, as he is getting married in two weeks time. Alex, on the other hand, is having a hard time with her film making gig as well as her relationship with Bobbie's ex - Chad (Bernard Palanca). Meanwhile, Teddie has not earned enough to buy a plane ticket so she asked help from her housekeeping colleague, Frodo (Janus del Prado) and convinced him that they go back to Manila together for the wedding and pretend that they are a couple.
