Suggested correction: When George goes to the grocery store, you can see Halloween decorations.

When they first meet with Franc, he says that the wedding is set for January 6 and that gives them five months. So it is definitely August at that point.

Other mistake: When Franc (Martin Short) is looking at the house to see the changes for the wedding and they are talking about the menu, Kimberly Williams starts with her hair in a ponytail, then for a split second her hair is half up in a barrette and then it's back to a pony tail (or vice versa).
