Philadelphia socialites Tracy Lord and C.K. Dexter Haven married impulsively; their marriage and subsequent divorce are equally passionate. They broke up when Dexters drinking, a mechanism to cope with Tracys unforgiving manner toward Dexters imperfections, became excessive. Two years after their break-up, Tracy is about to remarry in a ceremony at her familys mansion. Her new bridegroom is nouveau-riche businessman and aspiring politician George Kittredge, who is otherwise an ordinary man who idolizes Tracy. The day before the wedding, three unexpected guests show up at the Lord mansion: Macaulay Connor (Mike to his friends) and Elizabeth Imbrie--both friends of Tracys absent brother Junius--and Dexter. He works for the tabloid Spy magazine and made a deal with its publisher and editor Sidney Kidd to get a story on Tracys wedding--the wedding of the year--in return for Kidd not publishing a salacious story with accompanying photographs of Tracys father, Seth Lord, with New York showgirl Tina Marra. In reality, Mike and Liz are the reporter and photographer for Spy. Mike and Liz dont particularly like this assignment or working for Kidd, but their chosen other fields as serious writer and painter dont pay the bills. A suspicious Tracy is onto them, and when Dexter admits the truth, she decides to turn the tables on Mike and Liz. But hours before the wedding, as the more self-assured Dexter and Liz get to work on how to get the Lords out from under Spys threats, Tracy and Mike, both inebriated, go on a journey of self-discovery with Tracy ultimately coming to her realizations a little faster than Mike.
Just as Philadelphia socialite Tracy Lord is about to remarry, her first husband C.K. Dexter Haven arrives at her house. He has with him a tabloid reporter and a photographer, Macaulay Mike" Connor and Elizabeth Imbrie, and hes clearly intent on causing mischief. Tracy is surprised to learn that Mike is a serious writer who works for the tabloids only to earn a paycheck. They are clearly attracted to one another and the arrival of Tracys neer-do-well father--and some rather stern comments on his part--leads to her to reevaluate her choices and what she wants for the future.
