The film stars Jonathan Byrne and Alex Reid as a jilted groom and waitress who make an unlikely alliance and embark on an unusual adventure in rural County Donegal.
Dubliner David (Jonathan Byrne) is left at the altar by his fiancée Fiona, who meets him to calls off the wedding saying she is reluctant to marry him.
Leaving the wedding guests, David takes a bottle of champagne and drives to the airport, intending to go on his honeymoon alone, but gets drunk, missing the flight.
Remembering the holiday cottage, he tries to convince a taxi driver to take him there, with no success.
She begrudgingly accepts after bargaining a price, including a few hundred euro and his wedding ring.
Entering a neighbour's cottage, he is ambushed by the elderly owner brandishing a gun, thinking he is being robbed.
They have a picnic on a cliff, their relationship softening somewhat with David making her a birthday treat with sparklers.
The next day David apologises with a bouquet of wild flowers and tells Claire she can stay as long as she likes.
Once the part is back in the engine, David drives Claire to the bus station and on the way they encounter Larry.
Mary convinces Claire to try on her wedding dress while Larry shows David his waterbed and tells him that he likes to try on his wife's clothes.
On the drive, Claire makes a smart comment and David stops the car and tells her to get out.
A pub brawl ensues and to interrupt it, Claire releases a flock of sheep from the truck.
Larry is hiding behind the door and he tackles David to the ground, accusing him of stealing his wife's wedding dress.
She then reads out the letter she found in David's pocket that reveals Fiona had been seeing her ex-boyfriend Ray.
[1] Leslie Felperin for Variety gave a positive review of The Honeymooners, calling the performances engaging and saying it "look[ed] a lot better than one would expect given its reported limited resources", though not impressed by the final act.
[1] Caroline Hennessy for RTÉ called it "contrived but entertaining", hailing the use of digital video to "get right into the faces of the actors, which initially gives the film a great sense of immediacy although it does lag in the middle."
