Meet Gilbert and Moira - the strangest couple to ever marry for other people s money. New York; 1991: Gilbert Selwyn， a young man possessed of boundless charm and an allergy to employment， has devised a plan to wring a nice pile of loot from his mother s newest (and obscenely wealthy) husband. The scheme， simply put， is to get married for the gifts. But Gilbert， who s gay， needs a fiancee...Enter Moira Finch， a demonically conniving young woman whose own mother， having recently married the Duke of Dorsetshire， will contribute richly to the couple s receipts. Enter， too， Philip Cavanagh， Gilbert s longtime friend， former lover， and highly strung Best Man. And enter， finally， the Cellinis， Gilbert s huge internecine stepfamily， whose fortune has not been amassed as innocently as Gilbert first thought， and who conform rather more closely to Italian-American stereotypes than Gilbert would like to believe...As Gilbert， Moira， and Philip struggle to keep their plot under wraps， the scams get bigger and more perilous， deceit multiplies， and a wonderfully calamitous trail leads us toward what could be the wedding of the season.
