Great American Media Announces Start of Production, Home Sweet Christmas Wedding (WT), Starring Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison

Part of Great American Christmas 2025 on Great American Family and Pure Flix

NEW YORK, May 21, 2025 -- Great American Media has officially announced the start of production on Home Sweet Christmas Wedding (wt), sequel to the 2024 holiday hit, Home Sweet Christmas. The new film reunites Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison, reprising their roles as Sophie and Sam. The sequel is set to premiere as part of the company's Great American Christmas 5th Anniversary celebration this holiday season on Great American Family and Pure Flix.

"Home Sweet Christmas Wedding is a celebration of love, second chances, and the magic of moviemaking. We are delighted to reunite Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison for this heartwarming film coming to Great American Christmas 2025. Sophie and Sam's love story is both fresh and nostalgic and absolutely made for the movies," said Bill Abbott, President & CEO, Great American Media.

In Home Sweet Christmas Wedding (wt): As snow falls gently on their quaint hometown, Sophie and Sam are swept into the magic of the Christmas season - only this time, it's through the lens of a movie being filmed about their very own love story. At first, the process of art imitating life is like a fairy-tale, but soon, the challenges of making the film start to threaten Sam and Sophia's real-life wedding plans or lack thereof. With the studio threatening to pull the plug and the couple feeling disconnected, Sam's dream job is quickly turning into a Christmas nightmare. The couple must look within themselves to recapture the spark that made their story worth telling in the first place. Will this blockbuster leave their story (and Sam's career) on the cutting room floor, or be a classic for generations to come?

The original film Home Sweet Christmas followed Sophie Marlow, a successful M&A lawyer who returns to her hometown of Waynesbridge, Washington, after inheriting 60% of her great uncle's maple farm. There, she reconnects with childhood friend, Sam, who has inherited the remaining 40%. The shared inheritance leads them to rediscover their past and consider a new future.

"It is such a joy to reunite with my good friend and co-star, Cameron Mathison, to share the next chapter of Sam and Sophia's epic love story. Our fans loved witnessing their love blossom in Home Sweet Christmas. This time we're excited to bring our fans 'into the movie' and to the biggest moment in Sam and Sophie's lives," added Candace Cameron Bure, CEO CandyRock Entertainment and Chief Creative Officer, Great American Media.

Home Sweet Christmas Wedding (wt) is a Syrup Studios production in association with CandyRock Entertainment. Rob Lycar Produces and Paula Elle directs an original screenplay by Robin Dunne and Arcade Riley. Executive Producers include Candace Cameron Bure, Jeffery Brooks, Ford Englerth, Holly A. Hines, Eric Jarboe, Gerald Webb, Paula Elle, and Trevor McWhinney.
