    • Trivia
      Shortly before the episode aired, NBC hired 200 part-time operators to take what they expected would be a flood of phone complaints for portraying a lesbian wedding. They only received eleven calls.
    • Goofs
      When Ross gets up to shake Rachel's mom's hand in Central Perk, the edge of the set is visible to the left of him where the crew can be seen watching a screen. [Only visible in the 16:9 widescreen version. The original 4:3 TV version was cropped to avoid these issues]
    • Quotes

      Rachel: [about her mother] If she wanted to be more like me, why couldn't she just copy my hairstyle or something?

    As funny as all the other episodes of friends at the very least. And quite possibly the very most.
