Other mistake: The window in which Ben climbs in at Reverend Frank's house seems too narrow when viewed from the outside. But in the next shot inside the house, the window is wider.
License to Wed (2007)
Directed by: Ken Kwapis
Starring: Robin Williams, John Krasinski, Mandy Moore, Eric Christian Olsen
Plot hole: Reverend Frank reveals that he once married an immigrant from his congregation so that she could stay in the country after her application for asylum was rejected. No immigration official would ever have believed such a marriage (to a priest!) to be genuine and her application of leave to stay would have been rejected.
Trivia: Ben Murphy's parents in this film are actually John Krasinski's real-life parents.
Trivia: When the old man riding a scooter crashes into a car during the marriage road test, you can hear a Wilhelm scream.
Ben Murphy: Do you wanna walk the midget?
Ben Murphy: I mean, it wasn't supposed to be like this.
Joel: Yeah, I feel as bad as you do.
Ben Murphy: Now she's using her honeymoon ticket without me. I mean, how is that supposed to make me feel?
Joel: Bad. I think.
Ben Murphy: Three weeks ago, I was the happiest guy in the world, and I just... Now I'm just sitting here with you.
Joel: Thanks. Thanks, Ben. Appreciate that.
Reverend Frank: By the power of God and the minister of National Security and Justice of Ocho Rios, Jamaica... I now pronounce you husband and wife.
