A coal town social circle at Overtonia gathers on a veranda to celebrate a wedding. Colonel, Charley Overman, Mrs. Peytee, and young lovers Harry Williams and Dade Harkins' intended partner converge as the group plans a discreet yet festive union.
In Overtonia a planned romance fizzles into a chaotic wedding night.
