action
Andreas is a well-known fashion photographer with a proven charm. He is always surrounded by attractive models, and despite this eternal temptation, he finally wants to marry his great love Maria, who he met as a saleswoman in a record store. But Martin, a friend and colleague who asserts older rights to Maria, has something against it and from now on sets heaven and hell in motion so that the two cannot have their wedding night. Martin has been constantly coming up with new ideas, since he took the pastor's question too literally when he got married in the brick church, whether someone wanted to object to the marriage. No idea is too silly for him, no trick too bizarre to prevent Maria and Andreas from having married sex for the first time. For example, he organizes a brass band in front of the hotel where the honeymooners finally want to “initiate” their marriage, which starts trumpeting in the middle of the wedding night. That same night, Andreas and Maria escape the onset of the infernal noise and search for the distance in his snow-white Mercedes 190 SL . But Martin has also come up with something for the next night's camp: this time, with the make-up like a dead voodoo magician, when the couple arrives, he is already in their bed and scares the honeymooners for a brief moment. When Maria then says that she can no longer have sex here, where a "corpse" was lying in her bed, Andreas stomps annoyed out of bed and spends the night on a sofa in the next room.
When, the next morning, both love whispers were carried out into the middle of the street because Martin had connected a microphone in the room to speakers attached to the outer wall, Andreas had enough. Now he wants to tackle it. To make matters worse, a policeman is handing out a ticket to his car because parking is prohibited. Then one of Andy's former playmates, the saxon Asian Nicole, turns up, gets naked in front of Maria's eyes and hops into bed with her ex. Now it's up to Maria, who is pissed off, and she runs away when Andy's buddy Walter appears in Adam's costume, with a naked blonde at his side. Andreas runs after his Maria to save what can be saved. Both crawl into his Benz convertible parked on Hamburg's Mönckebergstrasse and want to finally sleep together in the next night and in a confined space. This promptly caught the attention of the police officer who had recently attached the ticket to the vehicle's windshield.
Andreas and Maria see only one way to finally be alone with themselves: they take the next plane that leaves the city. But the first quarter that they want to move into in their destination is also already occupied by several young people, which Martin certainly organized. Dead tired, Maria and Andreas sink together in an empty bathtub and fall asleep completely exhausted. There are said to be numerous other obstacles and incidents before the happy young married couple can finally spend their wedding night undisturbed: in a cowshed of all places.
