Shelby is getting married and all is excitement at Truvy's hair dressing salson. But what does the future hold for Shelby and her husband? How will Shelby's illness affect their life together? Taking place over three years, Steel Magnolias follows the ups and downs of six characters from Chinquapin parish, Louisiana. They come together to get their hair done but what is revealed is far more than sterotypical holiday chat.
