• [at second wedding] 

  Mrs. Beaumont : Are you married?

  Fiona : No.

  Mrs. Beaumont : Are you a lesbian?

  Fiona : Good lord! What makes you ask that?

  Mrs. Beaumont : Well, it is one of the possibilites for unmarried girls nowadays, and it's rather more interesting than saying, "Oh dear, never met the right chap," eh?

  Fiona : Quite right. Why be dull?

  Mrs. Beaumont : Thank you.

  [pause] 

  Fiona : The truth is... well, the truth is, I have met the right person, and he's not in love with me, and until I stop loving him, no one else really has a chance.

  Mrs. Beaumont : Oh, what a shame.

  Fiona : Yes, isn't it?

  [another pause] 

  Fiona : I was a lesbian once at school, but only for about fifteen minutes. I don't think it counts.

• Charles : Any idea who the girl in the black hat is?

  Fiona : The name's Carrie.

  Charles : Pretty.

  Fiona : American.

  Charles : Interesting.

  Fiona : Slut.

  Charles : Really?

  Fiona : Used to work at Vogue. Lives in America now. Only gets out with very glamorous people. Quite out of your league.

  Charles : Well, that's a relief. Thanks.

• Charles : Perhaps you were right, Hen. Perhaps we should've got married.

  Henrietta : Good God, no! Marry you and I'd have had to marry your friends and I'm not quite sure I could take Fiona.

  Charles : Fiona loves you.

  Henrietta : Fiona calls me Duckface.

  Charles : Well, I never heard that.

  Henrietta : Oh, Darling, come to lunch soon. Give me a ring, okay? Oh, still cute.

  [Henrieta leaves and Fiona aproaches] 

  Fiona : How's Duckface?

  Charles : Good form actually, not too mad.

• Fiona : Where's Gareth?

  Matthew : Torturing Americans.

  Fiona : How thoughtful of him.

• Fiona : [about congratulating parents of bride and groom]  God, I never know what to say in these ghastly line-ups.

  Gareth : It's a cinch! Just give a big warm hug and say the bride looks... pregnant.

  Matthew : Or you can stick with convention and say "You must be very proud."

  Fiona : Heaven preserve us...

  [in the line] 

  Fiona : You must be very proud!

• Fiona : What do you do?

  Father Gerald : I'm training to be a priest.

  Fiona : Good Lord! Do you do weddings?

  Father Gerald : No, not yet. I will, though, of course. Jolly nerve-racking.

  Fiona : Yes, rather like the first time one has sex.

  Father Gerald : Well. Well, I suppose so.

  Fiona : Though rather less messy, of course, and far less call for condoms.

• Tom : Well, let's face the facts. If you weren't certain you wanted to marry her today, of all days - i.e., your wedding day - then it must have been the right decision, mustn't it?

  [Fiona looks at him as though she's about to say, "Bugger off, Tom," for the umpteenth time, then reaches out and touches his shoulder affectionately] 

  Fiona : Quite right, Tom.

• Fiona : There's a sort of greatness to your lateness.

  Charles : Thanks, it's not achieved without real suffering.

• Scarlett : [At wedding one, the bride walks down the aisle]  Oh, isn't she lovely?

  Fiona : Scarlett, you're blind. She looks like a big meringue.

• Fiona : Do you think I'd hate him as much if he wasn't my brother?

• Gareth : A toast! Before we go into battle. True love. In whatever shape or form it may come. May we all in our dotage be proud to say, 'l was adored once, too.' True love.

  Charles , Fiona , Tom , Scarlett , Matthew : True love!
