I see you, and it’s time that you step into the light.
When you think about the last authentic romantic comedy you adored, you get lost somewhere between Love Actually (2003) and The Proposal (2009).
You believe that Nicholas Sparks has been the worst thing to happen to the Rom-Com since you got duped into watching The Notebook (view The Notebook quotes).

Of course, you’ll make the first toast!
Do they need any help writing their vows?
