Views from a wedding at Holyrood Church in Moorside, a woman is seen washing a dog, and there are scenes at a birthday party with people eating, dancing and fooling around in the garden. Guests and the bride are seen arriving at another wedding in St Ann's Square in Manchester, brief scenes from a football match and the film ends with views of family trips to Southport and Llandudno.
