Long-married Billy (Andy Garcia) and Ingrid (Gloria Estefan) are surprised when their oldest daughter, Sofia (Adria Arjona), comes to Miami for a visit. But the surprises keep coming when she announces a new boyfriend, Adán (Diego Boneta), who is now her fiancé, and her plans for a quick wedding and a new life together in Mexico, where Adán's family is from.
