Plot Summary
Connor Mead is a famous photographer and womanizer. After breaking up with three women simultaneously on a conference call to save time, he travels to his late uncle Wayne’s estate in Newport, Rhode Island, to attend the wedding of his younger brother Paul to Sandra. There, he becomes reacquainted with Jenny Perotti, the only woman who captured his heart. At the rehearsal dinner, Connor delivers a drunken speech and makes a pass at Sandra’s attractive and flirtatious mother, Vonda, and also unintentionally offends her ex-husband, the stern Sergeant Volkom, Sandra’s father.
He is then visited by the ghost of the inveterate playboy Wayne, who warns Connor that he will be visited by three ghosts who will lead him through his romantic past, present, and future. The first is the “Ghost of Girlfriends Past” in the form of Allison, his first lover. They revisit scenes from his past, focusing on his relationship with Jenny. She and Connor were very close at school; she gave him his first instant camera which he used to take her picture, promising to keep it forever, and even was there for Connor when his parents died. By middle school, they were on the verge of romance, but Connor’s hesitation at a dance caused Jenny to dance with and kiss another boy.
Wayne, now Connor and Paul’s legal guardian, advised a heartbroken Connor to avoid romance at all costs in order not to feel such pain again, and began to teach him his techniques as a pickup artist. When he next saw Jenny, he ignored her in favor of Allison. Several years later, Connor and Jenny met again and rekindled their romance. After spending the night together, Connor realized that he was falling in love and panicked, leaving Jenny to wake up alone and broken-hearted. Back in the present, Connor accidentally destroys the wedding cake and fails to reconcile with Jenny.
