The film features an ensemble cast including Toni Gonzaga, Bea Alonzo, Angel Locsin, Shaina Magdayao, and Enchong Dee.
The story begins with Teddy Salazar (Enchong Dee) announcing his engagement to his girlfriend of three months, Bobbie (Brenna Garcia). The announcement creates a rift between Teddy and his four sisters: Teddie (Toni Gonzaga), the eldest and the family's breadwinner; Bobbie (Bea Alonzo), the second eldest who is a successful corporate executive; Alex (Angel Locsin), the third sister who is a free-spirited woman; and Gabbie (Shaina Magdayao), the youngest sister who is still in college.
The sisters have always been protective of their younger brother and are afraid that his hasty decision to marry Bobbie will end up in disaster. Additionally, they hold Bobbie in contempt for her lack of ambition and perceived immaturity. Throughout the movie, each sister's quirks and flaws are revealed, along with the reasons for their stubbornness and resistance to Teddy's decision.
Teddie, who is the eldest and most responsible, is worried that Bobbie will not be able to provide for Teddy's needs. Alex, who is a rebel, is angry that Teddy is demanding privacy from the family, and Gabbie, the youngest, is sad to discover that her brother no longer considers her as important now that he has Bobbie. Bobbie, the bride-to-be, is caught in the middle of Teddy's love and his sisters' distrust.
The movie progresses as the sisters plot to keep the wedding from happening.
