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!

A nice way to spend your time

Made of Honor although it is identical to My Best Friend's Wedding except for the ending, believe it or not it is a very enjoyable romantic comedy. It has all the ingredients to entertain and spend a really good time with whoever you want to. It is very funny and romantic without being corny. The story about a man, Tom Bailey who is in love with his best friend Claire. But Tom has a fear of commitment and refuses to admit the obvious When Colin, a rich Scotsman sweeps Claire off her feet and asks for her hand in marriage, Tom must witness her unquestioned happiness up close and personal--because she has chosen him to be her Maid Of Honor. The cast was very well chosen. Patrick Dempsey made a very decent and convincing performance, Michelle Monaghan look very cute in this role and acts very good also. The couple of Dempsey and Monaghan was great, they have really good chemistry between them. One of the best thins of the movie are the locations, between Scotland and New York you see lots of beautiful places. In conclusion, a movie specially made for women but that men can enjoy as well.
