Jane is great at taking care of everyone in her life. She has even assisted1 27 friends in planning their weddings. Now, she is busy helping2 her sister put together a dream wedding. There is just one problem: Jane is in love with her sister's fiance1, George. How did that happen? Jane and George work together. Jane fell in love with him a long time ago, but she never had the nerve3 to tell him. Unfortunately for Jane, her sister wasn't as shy as she was.

Thankfully, Jane still has a chance. She ends up meeting Kevin. He isn't fooled by Jane's cheerful and perky2 personality. He knows she has sacrificed her own dreams to help carry out the plans of others. Kevin challenges Jane to think hard about her own goals. However, she is not sure if she can change so quickly. Jane wants her sister and George to live happily together. Yet, she also longs for her own perfect match3. Is Kevin able to help make Jane's dream of becoming a bride4 come true? The only way to know is to catch 27 Dresses in theaters before it is too late.

珍很会照顾她生命中的每个人。她甚至帮了二十七位朋友筹划他们的婚礼。现在,她正忙着帮忙筹备她妹妹的梦想婚礼。问题只有一个:她爱上她妹妹的未婚夫乔治。这是如何发生的?珍和乔治一起工作。珍很久以前就爱上了他,但她却从未有勇气向他告白。不幸的是,她妹妹可没她那么害羞。

令人欣慰的是,珍仍有一丝机会。她最后认识了凯文。他没被珍活泼开朗的个性骗倒。他知道她为了帮忙实现他人的计划而牺牲了自己梦想。于是凯文要珍认真去思考自己的目标。不过她不确定自己能否这么快就改变。珍希望她妹妹和乔治能一起快乐地生活。但是她也渴望自己的美好良缘。凯文能不能帮助珍实现成为新娘的梦想呢?知道答案的唯一方法,便是在时机过晚前,到电影院欣赏《27件礼服的秘密》。
