Jed, a company executive, goes on a blind date and meets Angelita (Angie), who works at a television network. They develop feelings for each other. When Jed’s parents ask him to move to the United States, he proposes to Angie out of love, and she agrees to marry him.
Jed and Angie’s wedding becomes known to their parents. Angie’s mother, Belita, a barangay kagawad in Cabanatuan, thinks Angie is pregnant, which Angie denies. Belita refuses to tell her estranged husband, Rommel, about the wedding. Jed’s parents, Carlos and Charito, are shocked and return to the Philippines. Belita insists on holding the wedding in Cabanatuan and invites her friends and political allies. Carlos tells Charito not to interfere, and Angie argues with Jed about his mother, calling off the wedding. However, they still love each other, so Jed proposes again, and they decide on a simple ceremony.
After their marriage, Jed and Angie live in Jed's house while his parents, Carlos and Charito, are in the United States. They have a series of misunderstandings, like when Angie's brother, Otap, and nephew take part of Jed's Batman toy collection. Charito also scolds Jed after discovering that Angie rearranged the furniture. Belita stays with them for a conference but clashes with Charito when she uses Charito's expensive towel from London to dye her hair, leading Belita to move to a hotel. To make things right, Jed surprises Angie with a new house so they can start fresh. Angie also surprises Jed by announcing she's pregnant.
Jed and Angie settle into their new home as they await the birth of their baby boy. Both of their parents are happy when they learn Angie is pregnant. At a party, Jed meets Mariel, a resort owner, and starts an affair without Angie knowing. The affair is exposed when Angie finds a text from Mariel on Jed's cellphone. When Angie learns they’re meeting for lunch, she surprises Jed by arriving with Mariel. She confronts him about his infidelity and moves to Belita’s house in Cabanatuan. Belita asks Rommel (her ex-husband and Angie's father) to talk to their daughter. After a heart-to-heart with her father, Angie decides to meet Jed and ask for an apology. Their conversation turns into an argument, and Angie goes into labor, giving birth to a son on their first wedding anniversary. Afterward, she reconciles with Jed. The couple returns home with their son and is welcomed by Belita and Charito.
The original screenplay for Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo, written by Mary Ann Bautista, won second place in one of the national screenwriting competitions of the Film Development Foundation (now the Film Development Council) in the 1990s, though it took a decade before it was developed into a feature film.

In the mid-1990s, Ishmael Bernal and Jose Javier Reyes had talks about developing a romantic comedy movie starring Nora Aunor for Regal Films where it was initially entitled as Kasal. However, the project was canceled due to the death of director Ishmael Bernal in 1996. Years later, Reyes was approached by ABS-CBN to do a film starring Judy Ann Santos and Ryan Agoncillo. Reyes would pitch the film to them and then, it was approved and began writing the script for it. ABS-CBN would later tell Reyes that they had decided to change the title to Kasal, Kasali Kasalo because they did not like the script and the title initially developed by Reyes. Joey Reyes would redevelop the film to include the other two parts which is "Kasali" and "Kasalo". [5]
