Production

The working title of this film was 'Orchestra Wife'.

Production dates were 6–17 April; 22 April – early June 1942.

An early draft of the film's screenplay was rejected by the PCA because it implied that some of the characters had committed adultery. After PCA officials met with producer William LeBaron in mid-June 1942, the story was approved on the condition that there would be no adultery explicitly depicted.

'Orchestra Wives' was the second and final film made by famed band leader Glenn Miller, who disbanded his orchestra in September 1942 in order to enter the military.

A July 8, 1942, Variety news item reported that the song "At Last," composed by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren, had originally been recorded by Miller and his orchestra for the 1941 Twentieth Century-Fox film Sun Valley Serenade.
