Synopsis:

A New York City matchmaker, Kate Gleason, is hired by King Edward of Voldavia to find his son, Prince Sebastian, a suitable wife in time for a national celebration. The prince scuffs at the idea, making Kate's process of matchmaking difficult. After spending so much time together helping save a community center Kate realizes that Sebastian has a tender and helpful side. As the clock ticks towards her deadline, Kate finds him the perfect wife only to realize that she’s fallen in love with him. Sebastian also comes to the realization that Kate is his perfect match.

So I’ve always considered those Hallmark “Prince” movies and the “Prince and Me” series to be pretty far-fetched. Like who doesn’t recognize a whole prince from some quaint little European country??? Like it’s not that hard!!! 

BUT I’m re-watching the Prince and Me rn and I’m having a change of heart, because if there’s one thing Hallmark has taught me is that all light-haired/light-eyed white guys look alike.

Take a close look at the 10 guys above. If any of them showed up in my home town, I’d just assume they were regular schmegular dudes, with regular schmegular dysfunctional families. However, 5/10 times I’d be wrong, because 5 of them are actors, but 5 of them are real princes.

i found out that yet another “royal falls for a commoner” movie was filmed at Peles Castle this year  (u know, in case yall slept on the iconic A Christmas Prince)

check out this gem: 

so i guess it’s official that Romania & Peles Castle are gonna be Hallmark’s backyard for all “royal romance” productions from this day into eternity and i just wanna say

per my patriotic duty, i have to liveblog it one of these days, stay tuned!
