The last name of the bride's family is Peyser. Penny Peyser played the bride in the original The In-Laws (1979).
Composer Lalo Schifrin wrote a score that was mostly unused. However, instead of hiring another composer after Schifrin left the project, the director and/or producers decided to use the temp-track selections written to previous movies by various film composers, and these composers got credited instead of Schifrin, who went on being uncredited, even though some of his work is still in the movie.
The project was variously named The In Laws, In-Laws, and Til Death Do Us Part or Till Death Do Us Part; originally released to the public in trailers and previews as The Wedding Party in early 2003. Donald Petrie was previously attached to direct.

On the subject of surviving in-law troubles, one of the movie's stars, Albert Brooks, offered this practical advice: "It's best to find some way to like your in-laws or at least accept them, no matter what. Now, if they live with you, that's a different story."
