After a highly publicized engagement during the taping of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kandi and Todd have finally picked a wedding date. The first episode starts five weeks prior to the wedding ceremony. As Kandi united her team to help plan a Coming to America themed wedding, the troops start raising a question whether it is possible to pull off such extravagant wedding in so little time. At the same time, Mama Joyce still has doubts about the wedding and her sisters put effort into making her more supportive of the whole situation.
Kandi and Todd are startled when Mama Joyce referred Todd's deceased father as a "pimp." Kandi's wedding planning team deals with Carmon's emotional exit. In order to get her family all together for the big day, Kandi meets with her father and asks him to officiate her wedding ceremony. Her father, however, brings up family issues from the past. Todd asks for advice from Kandi's father and his close friend Apollo. In a dramatic face-to-face with Mama Joyce, Todd is finally able to stand up for himself against Mama Joyce, who is still negative towards him
Only a few weeks are left until the special day. Kandi and Todd emotionally prepare for marital life. Todd's mother Sharon, referred to as Mother Tucker, arrives in Atlanta from New York and is unsurprisingly upset about Mama Joyce's behaviour towards her son. Kandi tries on her wedding dress. It gets really tense when Kandi's Matron and Maid of Honor confront each other at a bridal party gathering. Todd and Kandi's mothers get to meet each other at family dinner.
Kandi sends Todd the prenup with expectations of him to sign it. A few days remain before the wedding and guests have started to arrive in Atlanta. Kandi and Todd's friends throw them pre-wedding parties. Kandi’s bachelorette party is a fun girls night with outrageous entertainment hand delivered by Phaedra. Todd’s bachelor party over at Bar One gets a little out of control with Todd nearly breaking the "party rules" Kandi had laid out for him. During the wedding rehearsal, things take a turn for the worse when the bride and the groom confront each other about the prenup.
The drama relating to the prenup continues from the night before Kandi's dream wedding. Todd refuses to sign the prenup and their friends start questioning whether the wedding is the best idea. Todd agrees to sign the papers because he realises that marrying Kandi is more important than anything. The drama didn't come to an end as Mama Joyce ignores Todd's teenage daughter, igniting a huge argument between Kandi and her mother just hours before the ceremony is scheduled to start.
