Synopsis

In this sweeping romantic epic, brides-to-be Marjorie, Ada and Esther become fast friends while traveling aboard the famous 1953 “Bride Flight” that brought young women to their waiting fiancés in New Zealand. During the flight the three women also befriend the handsome and charming Frank, whom each takes an instant shining to. Though all four are destined for different lives, their paths continually intertwine throughout the ensuing decades, leading to forbidden love, an impossible choice and a secret pact.
