  • Was Lillian out of line for dumping Annie as maid of honor? Everyone felt it did not sit right.
  • Lillian's disappearance before the wedding, needed for conflict, falls apart.
  • A diverted plane should not have stopped a rich Helen from getting to Vegas.
  • Who buys carrots at a convenience store?
  • Helen would not have pushed for Vegas; she would have picked Europe or New Orleans.
  • Helen's husband has an unexplained $50 million-plus Chicago-area estate; Doug works for him, so why is Lillian skimping on a $12 workout?
  • Doug barely appears; how long Lillian and Doug's marriage lasts is on one participant's unanswerable list; "he's been calling me dude a lot" is a favorite line.
  • Megan and Doug do not look like siblings.
  • Annie capitalizes random words in her emails, like Lakehouse, noticed from an editor's eye.
  • Helen putting the giant cookie and chocolate fountain outdoors is a mistake, since weather cannot be controlled.
  • Why was Annie's mom not in the car on the drive to the shower if they were living together?
