Fans of When Calls the Heart who are are counting the days until Hallmark Channel's longest-running series returns, are in for a treat!

Before her return to Hope Valley, Hearties can see their favorite teacher Erin Krakow starring in the network's latest Spring Into Love movie, The Wedding Cottage, alongside Chesapeake Shores alum, Brendan Penny.

Here's everything we know about The Wedding Cottage including a Parade.com exclusive sneak peek!

What is The Wedding Cottage about?

To launch her new bookTying the Knot – A Wedding Guide, Vanessa Doyle (Erin Krakow) holds a contest offering one lucky couple an all-expense paid wedding. After the winning couple is announced, Vanessa learns the couple needs to get married quickly, as the groom (Drew Henderson) is being deployed and the bride (Matreya Scarrwener) is finishing grad school in just a few weeks.

The couple chose The Wedding Cottage for their nuptials but unbeknownst to Vanessa, it has been closed for years and is in disrepair. Evan Sutherland (Brendan Penny), an artist who inherited the cottage from his grandmother, has been using it as his temporary residence while he waits for inspiration for his next masterpiece. He has no intention of reopening, but Vanessa wants her clients to have their dream wedding and is determined to restore the cottage.

With only five weeks before the big day, Vanessa uses all her charm to convince Evan to reopen and builds relationships with the local residents to create a magical wedding for the bride and groom. As Vanessa and Evan grow closer, it becomes clear how much The Wedding Cottage has meant to the town and how much more it now means to both of them.
