When a clumsy maid of honor tries to help her best friend have the perfect wedding day, she's forced to turn to her arch nemesis, a.k.a. the best man, for help. That's the story in A Costa Rican Wedding from Hallmark Channel

We're in the middle of Hallmark Channel's Summer Nights 2024 celebration featuring a total of five original movies, including Junebug, My Dreams of You, The Magic of Lemon Drops and Head Over Heels

Here's everything we know about A Costa Rican Wedding

A Costa Rican Wedding release date

A Costa Rican Wedding premieres Saturday, August 17, at 8 pm ET/PT on Hallmark Channel. 

We don't have a premiere date for UK viewers, but as soon as one is available we'll have it for you right here. 

Hallmark Channel is included in many cable TV packages, but if you've cut the cord there are a few other options to help you watch. Hallmark Channel now has a partnership with Peacock so you can watch new movies on the streaming platform the day after they air with a subscription.

You can also access Hallmark Channel via Philo, Sling TV, Frndly TV, Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV and Fubo. While Hallmark Movies Now is the network's streaming arm, you cannot access new movies right away, so if you're looking to watch new Hallmark Channel originals immediately upon their release, you'll need access to the channel.

A Costa Rican Wedding plot

Here's the official synopsis of A Costa Rican Wedding from Hallmark Channel: "A clumsy maid of honor gets help from her handsome nemesis when things go awry at her best friend’s Costa Rican wedding."
