action
Two years have passed since Henriette Jantzen, with Jochen von Roth's help, barely managed to save the Immenhof from an impending foreclosure sale. A lot has happened in the meantime. Despite all her efforts, the old lady was unable to hold the estate. It was a difficult day for everyone when the bailiff officially sealed the home of Grandma Jantzen and her granddaughters Dick and Dalli. Von Roth tried everything to save the Immenhof, but in vain. What is particularly bad, however, is that Angela, Dick and Dalli's older sister, passed away just a few months after they married Jochen. Meanwhile, von Roth had to give up his dream of a stud. Grandma Jantzen and Dick and Dalli stayed with him in the forester's house in Dodau, where the conditions are very cramped in contrast to the Immenhof. In spite of everything, pony breeding continues, albeit much more modestly. The Immenhof auction is due in four weeks. During this time, Dick has become more serious and mature and helps wherever she can. Dalli has apparently changed very little, as long as she can romp around the paddock with her ponies, she is satisfied.
Surprisingly, Ethelbert appears again at the Immenhof for the first time in two years. He is accompanied by his friend Ralf Schüller, a graphic artist and clarinetist. The joy is great, but Ethelbert realizes that a lot has changed, including Dick. Dick, on the other hand, is extremely impressed from the start by the confident Ralf, who also plays the clarinet excellently.
Jochen von Roth's attempts to raise money after all, always come to nothing. With his idea of a pony hotel based on the Scottish model, he cannot score points with either the district administrator or the district savings bank. Ethelbert decides, mainly to impress Dick, to visit his wealthy uncle Pankraz, a winery owner in Eltville, in order to get him to invest in Jochen's idea. With the help of Dr. He actually succeeds in persuading Pankraz Hallgarten to come to Dodau. Since so many things go wrong with the arrival and the subsequent reception, Pankraz wants to leave as soon as possible. His daughter Margot, however, who accompanies him, feels drawn to Jochen von Roth from the start and he, too, falls in love with Margot. After a dispute with von Roth, Pankraz Hallgarten drives back to Eltville without his daughter.
When the day of the auction is approaching, there are a lot of interested parties. However, they all come away empty-handed, as an ominous man in a bowler hat buys the entire property in one go and without negotiating. Jochen is indignant when the man asks him what he wants to do with the Immenhof, he replies: “a pony hotel”. Margot's love helps him, however, and they both get married pretty quickly. It is a big surprise for the couple when Margot's father shows up in front of the church after the wedding and asks the wedding party, which also includes Ethelbert and Ralf, to follow him. The path goes to the Immenhof, which Pankraz, under the rough shell of which is a soft core, is given to the couple for their wedding. The man in the bowler hat had acted on his behalf. But for Grandma Jantzen and her granddaughters, too, this means that they can be back at home on their beloved Immenhof. Dalli sends a look at her sister, who is being held by Ralf, and wants to know whether she will be leaving her Ethelbert and mischievously adds that it must not have been the last wedding at Immenhof .
Production, background, publication
It is an Arca color film distributed by Neue Filmverleih GmbH (Munich). The shooting again took place in Holstein Switzerland , in the forester's house Dodau near Malente and on Gut Rothensande near Eutin . The film structures were in the hands of EH Albrecht.
Helmut Thielicke , at the time director of the seminar for systematic theology at Hamburg University, took offense at the wedding scene, in which Paul Klinger and Karin Andersen appear in their roles in front of the altar and were married there by the real Pastor Meier in the church in Malente-Gremsmühlen become. Volker von Collande had asked Meier to do so in the absence of an actor engaged for this role. Meier had gladly made himself available with his superior after covering his back. Thielicke was outraged about this in an article to Bishop Lilje and the Sunday paper . He was of the opinion that Meier had "given himself up to a situation that was not meant seriously, that was not even misguided serious, but that was pure theater". Area Production Manager Fiebig jumped to the aid of the distressed Pastor Meier and said, “The wedding in the church in Malente was by no means […] pure theater, but rather a 'real wedding' overheard by the camera”. By way of explanation, he added that Paul Klinger and Karin Andersen had their civil wedding two years ago and have now carried out the church wedding in front of the camera.
The premiere of the film took place on September 11, 1956 in the Aegi in Hanover , after the film was approved in an FSK test on August 30, 1956, number 12798, from the age of 6 with the condition "not holiday-free".

Reviews
The lexicon of international films wrote that the film was "a friendly, unpretentious entertainment with no depth."
The Protestant film observer drew the following conclusion: “A pale piece, stumbling over poor ideas, by the youth who (allegedly) overcomes difficulties with fresh ideas and fresh ideas. Disappointing continuation of a better start. "
Moviepilot, on the other hand, was of the opinion that this was another film that "would bring joy to the whole family []". For Cinema it was “Dear Kitsch”.
In the ARD it was said: "The lovable children and youth film 'Hochzeit auf Immenhof' offers the successful continuation of the great audience success 'The Girls from Immenhof' with Heidi Brühl, Angelika Meissner, Margarete Hagen and Paul Klinger."
Award
In 1957 Heidi Brühl was among the contenders for a Bambi in the category “Best Actress - national” , which Maria Schell ultimately received.
