George and Nina Banks have just settled down since their daughter Annie's wedding when life hurls another milestone at them - a grandchild. Once again they're scrambling to do everything right for their expecting daughter while facing the midlife crisis of being called "grandparents."

In this sequel to the hit comedy "Father of the Bride," George Banks continues to fret even after his daughter's wedding -- this time because she's pregnant and he's about to become a grandfather. He experiences even more angst when his wife discovers she's pregnant too. Comic confusion transpires as the beleaguered patriarch prepares for the two new additions to his family.
Joining in the fun are Franck Egglehoffer and his assistant Howard Weinstein, who are now no longer wedding planners but a pair of equally wacky home decorators.
