We Met in December: A Holiday Love Story That’s Worth Waiting For

About the Movie

On an unexpected layover just before Christmas, Annie Lane (Autumn Reeser) and Dave Weeks (Niall Matter) find themselves stranded in a cozy, beautifully decorated hotel that seems to glow with holiday magic. What begins as a chance encounter quickly turns into something special — a night filled with laughter, dreams, and a perfect Christmas kiss.

But when morning comes, the magic fades too soon. Without exchanging numbers, Annie and Dave return to their separate lives in Chicago, left only with the memories of that unforgettable night — and a few small clues about each other’s holiday plans.

Determined not to let the connection slip away, both set out on their own heartwarming quests to find one another again. Along the way, they rediscover what truly matters — family, love, and the joy that makes the Countdown to Christmas season shine a little brighter.
