Instead, it's more like a mishmash of romance, social commentary about Asian culture, satire/comedy, soap opera, and thriller. Perhaps a cozy mystery because there's a dead body? But no, it definitely wasn't that.

I'm not sure what exactly I thought Dial A for Aunties was going to be. Is it possible to escape murder charges, charm her ex back into her life, and pull off a stunning wedding all in one weekend? It's the biggest job yet for the family wedding business-' Don't leave your big day to chance, leave it to the Chans!'-and nothing, not even an unsavory corpse, will get in the way of her auntie's perfect buttercream flowers.īut things go from inconvenient to downright torturous when Meddy's great college love-and biggest heartbreak-makes a surprise appearance amid the wedding chaos. Unfortunately, a dead body proves to be a lot more challenging to dispose of than one might anticipate, especially when it is inadvertently shipped in a cake cooler to the over-the-top billionaire wedding Meddy, her Ma, and aunties are working at an island resort on the California coastline. When Meddelin Chan ends up accidentally killing her blind date, her meddlesome mother calls for her even more meddlesome aunties to help get rid of the body. You get 4 meddling Asian aunties coming to the rescue! What happens when you mix 1 (accidental) murder with 2 thousand wedding guests, and then toss in a possible curse on 3 generations of an immigrant Chinese-Indonesian family?
