Factual error: In the wedding scene at the beginning, the new Mrs. Weston is shown wearing a white dress. This was not the convention at that time; white wedding dresses were pioneered by Queen Victoria (1840-1901). The bride would simply have worn her best dress.
Suggested correction: A white dress may very well have been an unmarried lady's best dress at the time, as it was common for young ladies to wear white.
Continuity mistake: When Emma and Mr Knightley kiss for the first time near the end, they are both tilting their heads to the right when the camera angle is from Emma's perspective. Then, the instant the camera changes to Mr Knightley's perspective, they are suddenly tilting their heads to the left.
Rev. Elton: Were I not an old married man, I should gladly do the job. But my dancing days are over.
