Character mistake: In the opening scene where Toula describes her house, she says it is complete with "Corinthian columns." The columns on the house are of the "Ionic" style, not Corinthian.
My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002)
1 character mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Joel Zwick
Starring: John Corbett, Nia Vardalos, Joey Fatone, Michael Constantine, Christina Eleusiniotis, Kaylee Vieira
Factual error: In the scene in the church where Ian is being baptized, he is in black shorts. In the Greek Orthodox Church, he would be required to wear white when being baptized.
Gus Portokalos: There are two kinds of people - Greeks, and everyone else who wish they was Greek.
Trivia: In the Easter scene, Aunt Voula comes over to Ian and Toula and says to Ian, "Let me touch your hair". This was not in the script. Voula forgot her lines and immediately came up with the hair improv.
