Background.
A well-meaning, slightly awkward romantic who overthinks everything -especially big moments. Brad is the kind of man who plans out every detail but unravels the second real life interferes. Beneath his nervous energy is genuine warmth & sincerity; he truly wants things to be perfect, even if the universe seems determined to make that impossible. His charm lies in his earnestness - he's not smooth, but he's heartfelt. The kind of guy who'd trip on his own proposal but mean every word of it. LEAD.
Warm, grounded, and effortlessly charming, Janet is the calm to Brad's nervous energy. She approaches life with optimism and humor, finding joy in small moments rather than chasing perfection. While Brad tries to plan the perfect evening, Janet is the type who laughs when things fall apart. She's quick-witted but kind, the kind of person who can make strangers feel at ease or turn a disaster into a story worth retelling. Beneath her composure is a playful spirit that keeps Brad balanced. LEAD.
(Waitress). Bubbly, overly enthusiastic, and brimming with gooc intentions. Sabrina loves her job a little too much, eager to make every table feel special - ever when her timing is terrible. She's the type who apologizes while accidentally causing more of a scene, yet her genuine warmth makes her impossible to dislike. The heart of the restaurant, ever if she's also the source of its noise. STRONG SUPPORTING.
They are Charismatic, witty, and unflappably composed pretending to be. The Host keeps The Golden Palace Where Brad & Janet visit running with charm and flair, using humor as both armor and customer service strategy.

She is on the taller side and of average or medium build A delightfully awkward and self-aware British woman who can't seem to catch a break, especially when her mother is involved. Miranda often finds herself in humiliating situations but handles them with humor and a touch of resignation. She's witty, expressive, and endearingly human. SUPPORTING.
(Miranda mother). Posh, British, outspoken, and completely unaware of boundaries, Penny's mission in life is to see her daughter married - preferably to someone rich, respectable, and breathing. She dominates every room she enters with high energy and misplaced confidence, often embarrassing Miranda in spectacular fashion. Beneath the bravado, though, is a woman who genuinely loves her daughter - she just shows it in the most mortifying ways possible. SUPPORTING.
(Husband to Suzanne). Gruff, outspoken, and perpetually displeased. James is the kind of man who treats every meal like a personal affront. His complaints are legendary, but his dramatic outbursts are strangely endearing - a man who can turn "no onions" into a five-act play. SUPPORTING.
(Wife to James). Patient but battle-worn, Suzanne has mastered the art of surviving both marriage and public embarrassment. With a sharp tongue and a weary smile, she handles her husband's tantrums with grace and the kind of dry humor that only decades of marriage can teach. SUPPORTING.
