“The truth is... well, the truth is, I have met the right person, and he's not in love with me, and until I stop loving him, no one else really has a chance.”
“Gareth used to prefer funerals to weddings. He said it was easier to get enthusiastic about a ceremony one had an outside chance of eventually being involved in.”
“- Gareth: We had the most delightful girl at our table. Carrie, apparently her fiancé's terribly grand and owns half of Scotland. How about you?
- Charles: I seem to be stuck in the wedding from hell, ghosts of girlfriends past at every turn.”“- Charles: Tom, are you the richest man in England?
- Tom: Oh, no. We're... like, seventh.”“I am, as ever, in bewildered awe of anyone who makes this kind of commitment that Angus and Laura have made today. I know I couldn't do it and I think it's wonderful they can.”
“- Carrie: Just before I go, when were you thinking of announcing the engagement?
- Charles: Uhh... I'm sorry, whose engagement?
- Carrie: Ours. I assumed, since we slept together, that we would be getting married. What did you think?”“It is dangerous! You know, there's nothing more off-putting in a wedding than a priest with an enormous erection, yecch!”
A toast before we go into battle. True love. In whatever shape or form it may come. May we all in our dotage be proud to say, "I was adored once too".
“- Charles: There I was, standing there in the church, and for the first time in my whole life I realised I totally and utterly loved one person. And it wasn't the person next to me in the veil. It's the person standing opposite me now... in the rain.
- Carrie: Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed.”
