Priscilla Presley Is Making a Cameo in Hallmark's Upcoming 'Wedding at Graceland'
Following the success of Hallmark Channel's original Christmas at Graceland movie, the network plans to air a follow-up.
Kellie Pickler and Wes Brown will resume their star-crossed lover roles for Wedding at Graceland later this year.
Listen up, people-one of your favorite Hallmark Christmas romances is officially making a triumphant comeback to the small screen. Yep, that's right, co-stars Kellie Pickler and Wes Brown will pick up where the beloved Christmas at Graceland left off for a brand-new sequel this summer. And, the good news just keeps on comin' because we can definitely expect wedding bells this time around.
Following in the holiday film's footsteps, Hallmark plans to film Wedding at Graceland at the Memphis hotspot once again. Also to be expected, the upcoming Elvis-infused flick will incorporate subtle nods to the famed former Graceland occupant. (Not to spoil too much, but the leading characters will say "I do" at a sentimental spot on the King of Rock's property.)
Christmas at Graceland rocked Hallmark's ratings out of the water last year as the network's number one movie, so we're excited to see how the anticipated continuation pans out. Here's everything we know so far about Wedding at Graceland's plot, cast, premiere, and more.
What is Wedding at Graceland about?
According to Hallmark, fans will finally get to see Laurel (Kellie) and Clay (Wes) walk down the aisle. If anything, we encourage you to tune in just to see how ah-mazing Kellie will look in a white gown.
Is the movie actually filmed at Graceland?
You bet-in fact, the on-screen lovebirds will exchange vows at Graceland Wedding Chapel in the Woods. This newly-minted spot on the mansion's grounds opened during last year's Elvis Week.
Who is starring in Wedding at Graceland?
Aside from regulars Kellie and Wes, the cast has one very special newcomer in store-none other than Elvis' wife, Priscilla Presley. According to US Weekly, the 73-year-old will reminisce on her own big day in the film cameo. And, that's not all-the publication adds that country star Lee Brice and his talented vocals will also join the ranks for a must-see on-screen performance. The star confirmed his role with an Instagram selfie, captioned, "Learning lines for my first movie appearance :) #WeddingAtGraceland."
When will Wedding at Graceland premiere?
Filming kicks off in April, and you can expect to watch the finished movie this June.
Will this be the last Graceland movie?
Nope! Hallmark revealed that a third honeymoon movie will join the franchise this December. Because two obviously just won't cut it.
Plus, before Hallmark announced the exciting Wedding at Graceland news, Kellie admitted to Country Living exclusively that she would love to continue her collaboration with the network. "I really enjoy working with Hallmark and they were so good to me and if an opportunity presents itself then I would love to work with them in the future for sure," she said. Thank goodness for that!
