    • Trivia
      Originally, the film was conceived as a teen comedy with Emma Roberts as Liv and Nikki Reed as Emma.
    • Goofs
      If the wedding planner had to advise one of the 3 brides that she double booked a date, wouldn't it have made more sense for her to simply tell the 3rd bride that she made a mistake with her date? The other bride would have most likely gladly taken the 6th, whereas with telling Liv and Emma she was more likely to risk losing a customer.
    • Quotes

      Daniel: They haven't spoken in a week. That's like a century in girl years.

    • Alternate versions
      The UK cinema version was cut for a 'PG' rating. The cuts were: An aggressive use of 'bitch' to describe a female character. A character saying 'Mother F' when she hears her wedding date has been double booked.

    Mediocre at Best

    Honestly, how many angry bride movies can Hollywood come out with? I thought 27 Dresses had a pretty good plot, even though it was way way way predictable, the characters were likable and different. There were no strip club bachelor/bachelorette parties, no fights that left you hating both of the women in the movie, and some pretty good acting. However,in Bride Wars, Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway have reached a low point in their career, dreadfully overacting and dramatizing every little detail to the point of me losing interest. The three male leads were decent, but for the most part, left a lot to be desired. Their characters were somewhat shallow, possibly due to a predictable and weak screenplay and script. This reminded me too much of all the bride movies and over-hyped chick flicks of the past. When will Hollywood come out with another Notebook romance?
