Fox Searchlight Pictures’ Our Family Wedding, starring Lance Gross and America Ferrera, comes out on DVD/Blu-Ray today. Our Family Wedding centers around a loving couple, Marcus (Gross) and Lucia (Ferrera) who are oblivious to the reactions that their respective fathers would have to their wedding. The dads, played humorously by Forrest Whitaker (Brad) and standup comic Carlos Mencia (Miguel) tackles the black and Latino prejudices that exists in our communities, as well as the class differences; Brad’s family is wealthy, while Lucia’s family is working class.
In Our Family Wedding, Brad and Lucia learn the hard way that the path to saying “I do” can be rife with familial strife. When they return from college and suddenly announce their marriage plans, they soon discover that their fathers – two highly competitive over-the-top egos – can wreak a major amount of havoc on their special day. With insults flying and tempers running high, it’s anyone’s guess if the alpha dads will survive to make it down the aisle in one piece.
