- Sarah Jessica Parker's character's wedding vows to Hugh Grant's character ("Let me not to the marriage of true minds...") are taken from William Shakespeare's Sonnet 116, published in 1609.
- When Vincent (Michael Kelly) makes his assault on the Wheeler ranch, the rifle he is carrying is a SUB-2000, made by Kel-Tec CNC Industries. It is a 9mm carbine that uses Glock magazines, and is notable for the fact that the entire length of the rifle will fold in half for transport and storage.
- The 35mm print was sent to theaters code titled "High Stakes".
