Trivia:

Whilst filming at the Park Lane Hotel, on Park Lane in London, some 30 extras had to be called in at short notice when the production team noticed the frequency of passing red double-decker buses, a common enough occurrence in London, but not in New York, where the scene is set. The extras were used outside the hotel to try to block the buses out.

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Tom claims to have invented the paper cup sleeve when in reality it was invented by a man in California named Jim Chelossi.

Quotes:

Melissa: Service me bitch!

Great movie

I too was wondering how they would pull this off as it has been compared to Best Friends Wedding but in reverse. However, they did it and did it better. I saw a screening last night and it was incredibly well done. I loved it. It was refreshing to see a romantic comedy from a male perspective. Patrick Dempsey was able to handle any situation that came up on screen and make it believable from the humorous to the poignant. His female counterpart also held her own in her character as his friend and romantic interest. You were kept guessing how it would all end until it was wrapped up and with a most satisfactory ending.

Go see this film - I don't think you'll be disappointed. He makes a very good Made of Honor and a happy ending is guaranteed. The scenery in Scotland is gorgeous as well.
