“Perfectly matched! Her blue-blood background and his yellow journal foreground was the match that set fire to Park Avenue!”
Newspaper photographer Jim Tyler sneaks into a society girl's wedding, and the bride's sister decides she prefers him to her upper-crust suitors. She even likes his pigeon, who travels everywhere with him.
