But as much as heās transformed, thereās one thing the Grinch canāt avoid: the chaos of love, family, and wedding planning. When Cindy-Lou Who announces her engagement, things are bound to get more than a little out of control.
What begins as a festive celebration of love quickly escalates into a whirlwind of wedding preparations, party mishaps, and an unexpected rival who has a secret agenda to ruin the big day.

From the flower arrangements to the wedding cake, itās clear that, while the Grinch has a heart three sizes larger, he still canāt quite figure out how to navigate human emotionsāand Whovilleās wedding traditionsāwithout causing a little chaos. But as he struggles to balance his grumpy side with his newfound sense of family and belonging, the Grinch learns that love, like Christmas, isnāt always perfect, but itās worth the effort.
The arrival of a sneaky rival with a plan to sabotage the wedding tests the Grinchās ability to stay calm and collected. What follows is an action-packed series of misadventures that will have fans laughing, cringing, and cheering for the green guy who is determined to make things rightāeven when his grumpiness gets in the way. The rivalry adds a layer of tension to the film, reminding the Grinch that, even when youāve changed, some thingsālike protecting the ones you loveāare still worth fighting for.
