The August lineup begins on August 1 with A Toast to Italy, starring Will Kemp and Torrey DeVitto. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Italy’s countryside, the story follows Jenny as she travels overseas searching for a legendary bottle of wine to celebrate her sister’s wedding. During her journey, she crosses paths with Arrigo, another traveler pursuing the famous “Love Wine.” What begins as a shared adventure slowly blossoms into a romance as they discover that sometimes the greatest treasure isn’t what you’re searching for—it’s the person you meet along the way.
On August 8, Hallmark shifts from vineyards to the music world with Absolutely Devoted to You, featuring Jesse Metcalfe and Kimberley Sustad.

Filled with nostalgia, music, and plenty of romantic tension, this promises to be one of the month’s most entertaining premieres.
The adventure continues on August 15 with Aussie at Heart, starring Hallmark favorites Rhiannon Fish and Daniel Lissing. Set amid the spectacular scenery of Queensland, Australia, the film follows former lawyer turned event planner Samara as she unexpectedly reunites with Nate, her former coworker and longtime rival. As the two work together organizing a couple’s anniversary celebration, unresolved feelings and old memories gradually transform professional rivalry into something much deeper.
On August 22, audiences can enjoy Love Finds You, featuring Aimee Teegarden and Chris McNally. A simple shipping mistake changes everything when jewelry designer Alex believes a mislabeled package has led her to the perfect man. Joined by delivery driver Jack, she embarks on a citywide search that becomes far more meaningful than either expected. Along the way, both discover that love often arrives in ways no one could ever plan.
The month concludes on August 29 with Much About Love, starring Hallmark veterans Ashley Williams and Niall Matter.
