FADE IN:
EXT. HACIENDA DE LAS FLORES LAWN – DAY
It’s cloudy and overcast as the ceremony begins. Todd walks down the aisle with his parents. The groomsmen and bridesmaids (and Arthur, the dog) follow. It’s still cloudy. Just as Jill and her parents are about to walk down the aisle, the sun bursts out and bathes them in light. There are audible gasps from the guests.

CUT TO:
EXT. HACIENDA DE LAS FLORES PAVILLION – DAY
Just after the first dances, bouquet/garter tosses, and cake cutting, there is a slight lull in the reception. Guests are mingling about and enjoying themselves. The DJ cues up “Time of my Life” from Dirty Dancing. As the song begins, Jill walks out in a shorter white dress and Todd joins her wearing a black polo a lá Patrick Swayze. They perform the entire choreography of the finale from Dirty Dancing… and everyone has the time of their lives.
