Eugene Levy played the part of the wedding singer at audition in Father of the Bride (1991) and Mr Habib in Father of the Bride 2 (1995).
The set used for the interior of the Banks' home had to be rebuilt from scratch for the sequel. With no presumption of a sequel during production of the original movie, the set was destroyed after production completed. Set crew had to recreate the entirety of the set based only on a few remnant sketches of the original set, and had to estimate most measurements, based on the known sizes of various reference items in the original film.
When the movie opened, aspiring country singer Brad Paisley went to see it in the hopes that an ex-girlfriend he'd seen the first "Father of the Bride" remake with would be there. She didn't show, but as he told an Atlanta radio station later, he sat in the theater watching the lead actress and thought to himself, "I could marry a girl like her." A few years later, he not only married a girl like her, he married that particular girl - actress Kimberly Williams-Paisley.
Although this sequel to Vater der Braut (1991) is not a remake of Ein Geschenk des Himmels (1951), (the sequel to the original Vater der Braut (1950)), the opening scenes of the two films, including the narration spoken to camera by the father character, are virtually identical.
The 15 $1,000.00 bills Mr. Habib uses to pay George with are very rare, even back in 1995 and more valuable than face value.
