Don and Ellie (Robert De Niro and Diane Keaton) are a divorced couple who have remained friends despite their past. They have three children together: Lyla (Katherine Heigl), Jared (Topher Grace), and Alejandro (Ben Barnes). Alejandro was adopted by a Colombian family when he was a child and is now an adult. He is engaged to Missy (Amanda Seyfried) and is bringing her home to meet his family.

The problem is that Alejandro's birth mother, Madonna (Patricia Rae), is a devout Catholic who will not attend the wedding if she finds out that her son's adoptive parents (Don and Ellie) are divorced. So, Don and Ellie pretend to still be married for the weekend of the wedding.

As the family gathers at the luxurious family home in Connecticut, their dysfunction begins to surface. Lyla is married to a man named Nuria (Ana Ayora), but is still in love with her ex-boyfriend, Eduardo (Emmanuel Chriqui).

Lyla tries to navigate her complicated love life while keeping the peace between Nuria and Eduardo. Jared tries to come out to his family while keeping his boyfriend secret. And Alejandro has to confront his feelings for Missy and whether or not he is ready to get married.
