Great, but... !

Great clean wholesome movie; however, I won't watch it again because I felt uncomfortable the whole time due to immodest clothing choices.Fun storyline.Wine drinking, does take place in vineyard.I wish they did better with clothing choices. I felt uncomfortable watching the women wearing low cut, short midi dresses, a few dresses are see through when the light hits. I don't want to be uncomfortable watching a movie fearing I will see more skin than I want to. Shirts that are too short we see skin, too low cut we see cleavage, and are too revealing we see bra straps. One male characters pants at one point are so baggy, I was focused on trying to figure out why.Now if they can focus on better outfits, I would definitely give this a 10, but for me it is a 7 and I'm wondering if that was too good for how uncomfortable I felt!

Laid back and relaxing romance

7.3 stars.I haven't seen this lead actress in any Hallmark movies, but since this film is on UP TV, perhaps it breaks from the usual expectations? The music creates a relaxing, ASMR-like atmosphere in many scenes, seemingly by design. Overall, 'A Vineyard Romance' is laid-back and pleasant, though not particularly thrilling, which is typical for family friendly romances. However, I appreciated the director's intention to provide a soothing and enjoyable viewing experience.The story follows a familiar trope: both a man and a woman left their hometown of Everlasting, Oregon to pursue their dreams. They agreed to meet one year later at a vineyard on their anniversary, with the possibility of prioritizing their relationship over their dreams if they both showed up.Jump forward 15 years, she returns to Everlasting to interview a famous bride-to-be at the vineyard, only to discover it's her ex-boyfriend who is getting married to the blogger. Our lead female realizes she's still been missing him after all these years, so old feelings are reignited.The predictable plot unravels: she arrived at the vineyard that fateful day, 15 years ago, but he didn't-he mistakenly came two days later due to a mix-up in anniversary dates. They've both needlessly yearned for each other since. Throughout most of the film, the reason for his absence at their rendezvous remains a mystery. Eventually, he confesses that he did go to the vineyard, and that's when the crux of the issue is revealed, they missed meeting up together, because of their differing beliefs about the anniversary date-he believed it marked their first date, while she thought it commemorated their first kiss.In a twist that's typical of light romance films, once they realize they are still meant to be, that they missed the rendezvous because of an honest mistake-instead of altering their plans to be together, they continue with his wedding and her article about his fiancée.The fiancée, a famous blogger, is assertive yet somewhat sympathetic, making her character complex but overshadowed by the lead female whom the audience prefers. The blogger pressures him into taking a job in New York City he hadn't agreed to, prompting him to abruptly end the engagement just before the wedding, a decision hard to believe given the impending nuptials.The story unfolds against the backdrop of wedding preparations, where reality and the script diverge, highlighting why emotional investment in such films may not translate to real-life scenarios. In real life, there would likely be confrontations and suspicions, but here, a familiar happy ending wraps things up neatly.
