WATCH: How Brooke Shields discovered her own identity

The official trailer for "Mother of the Bride," starring Brooke Shields, Miranda Cosgrove, Benjamin Bratt and more, is here.

The trailer for the romantic comedy dropped Thursday. In it, Shields plays a woman named Lana, whose daughter Emma (Cosgrove) surprises her with her plans to get married and the fact that she's already set a date in Thailand.

The surprises keep coming when Lana finds out that the father of the groom is Will (Bratt), whom she describes as "the guy who tore my heart out" in college.

"We were everything to each other," Lana tells her daughter. "And one day he was just gone."

There's a meet-not-so-cute between the former couple when the reveal happens, which Lana tries to play off.

At another point in the trailer, Lana accidentally walks in on Will naked, making things even more awkward.

Complicating matters is a hunky young doctor with eyes on Lana, and sparks between Will and Lana during a wedding dance rehearsal that hint the former college sweethearts could give love a second chance.
