Just a year prior to this film being released, Martin Clunes also starred in Dancing Queen (1993) which had a remarkably similar plot, in which a bridegroom is drugged and must struggle to make his way to his own wedding. The main characters even share the same name, Neil, and in both the mother of the bride is named Margaret.
Neil Morrissey makes an uncredited as a wedding video cameraman.
Martin Clunes: Men Behaving Badly (1992) co-star, as the man behind the video camera at the wedding.
