Plot summary
A strict television executive, Meg (Alicia Witt), is left alone on Christmas by her boyfriend, Eric (Trevor Donovan) who goes to Las Vegas. While Meg is pushing her staff to work extra hard on the holidays, she is visited by an angel named Sal (Christina Milian). Meg has a freak accident where she is hit by a snow globe and is knocked unconscious. She wakes up in a perfect town where he is married to Ted (Donald Faison), her ex-boyfriend from college, and their two perfect children. Meg is convinced this situation has been brought on by a concussion or a joke her boyfriend and staff are playing on her, but she goes along with it. When she awakens the next day, she learns she is still stuck in an alternate reality. Meg tries to understand why she is there and how she can get back to her boyfriend Eric and life in the city.
After discovering that a train she boards only goes around town, Meg wanders the village where she finds members of her staff and her boyfriend Eric, who is the mayor in this reality. This confirms her fear that she has a concussion and is stuck in the alternate reality until she wakes up.
Meg decides to run away from Ted to talk to Eric. She learns Eric is a cheater and trying to destroy the town's precious forest to build a country club. This is a reflection of her real boyfriend's actual character. This compels Meg to realize she is no longer interested in Eric, she and makes things right with Ted. Meg sees what her life could have been like had she not chosen work over starting a life with Ted after college. With some guidance from her angel, Meg and Ted save the village and she discovers what her dreams are in life and learns the meaning of Christmas: giving and love.
Meg wakes up still on set where she was filming before the snow globe knocked her out. She says she feels fine and sends her staff to go home to be with their families. She then takes a trip to the real Ted's house, where she talks to him and learns that he made the snow globe that caused her concussion. Meg sees a photograph on Ted's tree that looks like the angel from her dream; it turns out to be Ted's mom, who was trying to bring Meg and Ted together. Meg and Ted both go to grab the snow globe at the same time and end up holding hands. The movie then jumps ten years into the future, where we see Meg and Ted preparing for the holidays with their children, the same ones from Meg's dream.
