* LackOfEmpathy: [[spoiler: This applies to both Gretchen and Doug. Gretchen didn't care about Doug, she just wanted to marry him because he was rich. Doug himself never really cared for Gretchen, he just believed that he was lucky to have landed a girl as pretty as her. Whatever union they had wouldn't have lasted long or well, so it was probably for the best that Doug called it off. ]]
* LineOfSightName: [[spoiler:All of the groomsmen names made up by Doug were based on this. Bic Mitchum came from seeing razors and shaving gel in his medicine cabinet and the rest were all football players whose jerseys hung on the wall.]]

** Doug saying that all the guys Jimmy picked out "look like the cast of ''Film/TheGoonies'' grew up up and became rapists".

*** The wedding song that Gretchen chooses is the from the first time that she and Doug had sex. Doug points out that said song was from the time that Gretchen and an ex-boyfriend had had sex; Gretchen has told him this anecdote many times.

* {{Jerkass}}: Gretchen's father. He has an implied hatred towards Doug and uses his history of being a [[UsefulNotes/AmericanFootball football]] player (whether in university or professionally) to intimidate Doug and his friends. He challenges Doug and "Bic" to a game with the rest of the groomsmen, when the men decline, he threatens them. Also, he showed no remorse when he and his old friends pulverised Doug and his group, and constantly bullies Edmundo when the wedding gets delayed.
