* TheGrinch: Edward and Milo both stated, in the very beginning, that they hate Christmas. {{Justified}}, because the holidays remind them of the death of their beloved ones. They passed away last Christmas.

* HeartwarmingOrphan: Maddie, to the point she does not seem to have noticeable flaws. Her addiction to chips seems to come out of nowhere (alluded to just before the ball), but at the moment she needed a vice that Arabella could blame her for.

Added DiffLines:

* UnbuiltTrope: The film's general premise has become extremely common for romance films in the years since but it's unusual from many of it's successors in a few ways. Most notably, unlike the usual set up of a young woman who encounters and wins over a prince by pure chance, Jules already knew the Royal characters well in advance due to her sister having been married to Ashton's brother Charles. The film also examines the harder realities side of such a pairing as Duke Edward strongly disapproved of his son marrying a middle-class American woman and disowned him as a result which caused Jules to have an extremely negative view of the family and Jules and the kids face similar hostility. And while Ashton fits the usual "prince charming" archetype, he is also deeply insecure due to how his father always preferred Charles.
