A cocksure student and his siblings must covertly recreate their parents' wedding video after accidentally destroying the original two weeks before the tape is needed for a television special honoring their father.

I laughed out loud and went to find my wife so she could haha too. True, motivators need some tweaking, but I love it so far. Could you tie it to the opening of a will and a million dollar inheritance?

Spot on. Stakes are almost non existent. Will rethink. :)

Are the parents still alive? (IOW: will they see the TV special?)

What's at stake? Why the compelling need to engage in such deceit? So what if they can't recreate the lost tape? Aren't there stills? Aren't there other pictures/video of other events in their parents lives to substitute in the tribute for the video that was lost?
