The Lisa Whelchel and Kim Fields movie For Better or For Worse will premiere Saturday, July 19 at 9/8c pm on Hallmark Channel.

Opposites attract when Wendy (Lisa Whelchel), a wedding coordinator, and Marco (Antonio Cupo), a divorce attorney, find their lives suddenly intertwined. Wendy is finally settling into the single life after struggling with the death of her husband. After a difficult season of grief, she's taken over the family business of coordinating the town's most beautiful and memorable weddings with the help of her friend and co-worker Roseanne (Kim Fields). Wendy's business and values are challenged, however, when the charming and incredibly irritating Marco opens shop as a divorce attorney right next to her wedding chapel. Although Wendy will stop at nothing to promote her marriage business over Marco's divorce business, she must form an alliance with Marco after her son Collin (Edward Ruttle) announces his unexpected engagement to Marco's daughter Sophia (Alicia Josipovic). As Wendy grows closer to Marco, she begins to realize that if she shields herself from the pain of love lost, she may prevent herself from experiencing true love in the future. Will Wendy open up to a second chance at love?<p>

"For Better or For Worse" is based on the novel of the same name, by best-selling author Diann Hunt. <p>

I saw it last night. It's what I would expect from a Hallmark movie: a little cheesy with the happily ever after ending. The set-up was a little convenient, coincidental, and not believable (with the wedding planner setting up shop next to the divorce attorney, and then having their kids fall in love). Nevertheless, it was great seeing Lisa and Kim acting together again

It's not a sharp copy, but the movie can now be viewed on YouTube.

I caught the beginning of this last week and wasn't able to finish watching That's why I started DVRing Lisa Welshel's shows and thus began watching the Facts of Life from start to finish. I'm working my way through Season 3 now. I'm hoping it will come on again soon.
