Marriage, as one of the most important stages in the family, has the influence and participation of parents. Recent studies show that different aspects of couples' marital relationships are affected by their families and change their quality of life. The purpose of this study is to provide a clear picture of the different dimensions of the role and effectiveness of couples' families in marital adjustment, stability, and marital satisfaction. In this review study, in order to find related sources and studies between 2010 and 2020, valid scientific databases such as Magiran, SID, Scopus, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar have been used. The search was performed using keywords such as in-law, family-of-origin, marital Satisfaction, a marital adjustment in English articles, and the keywords causal relationships, spouse family, main family, family involvement, marital adjustment, and marital satisfaction in Persian articles. A total of 37 related articles out of 90 related articles were eligible to enter the research. According to the documents, the role of parents in the two periods before and after marriage can affect the couple's relationship. In fact, the degree of involvement and share of the family in how to choose a spouse for the child before marriage and the degree of interference in the form of interactive injuries after marriage can affect marital satisfaction and marital compatibility and even cause the couple to break up and divorce. In addition to the direct role of families, the experiences of spouses learned from the main family, which form the pattern of relationships, attachment style, and differentiation of couples in relationships, can also indirectly show the role of families in the marital life of spouses.
