The movie stars Rose Byrne as Nat, and Rafe Spall as Josh. Nat and Josh meet and fall in love, and quickly marry after a whirlwind romance. However, despite their initial infatuation, their relationship begins to face tests as both partners have different expectations about what their marriage should be.
Nat is a successful marketing executive who is determined to start a family as soon as possible, while Josh is a struggling writer who is not ready to settle down and has doubts about the longevity of their relationship. As the first year of their marriage unfolds, the couple faces a series of challenges that put their love to the test, including disagreements with their in-laws, temptations in the form of new love interests, and personal insecurities.
The central conflict of the film revolves around the characters' opposing views on love, commitment and marriage. Despite their differences, Nat and Josh are deeply in love and do their best to make their marriage work. However, as the pressures of married life weigh on them, they both begin to question their own feelings and whether they made a mistake by getting married so quickly.
The movie is also filled with a colorful cast of supporting characters, including Alex Macqueen who plays Josh's obnoxious and overly-critical best friend, and Anna Faris, who portrays a free-spirited and flirtatious business colleague of Josh.
