<upd_detl>Your wife is, I suppose, covered under "relative by marriage".  According to the diagram in wikipedia, your spouse is indeed part of your 姻族, so this should be a proper antonym.

We currently have the term "affinity" attached to 姻戚, but reverso never glosses it this way.  However, nearly *all* of the reverso glosses treat this term as "affinity".

sankoku defines 姻族 as : 姻戚.
The definition of 姻戚 is followed by a ref to 姻族. Both are marked 文.</upd_detl>

Reverso 姻族
"relative by affinity", "relative by marriage"

Reverso 姻戚
relatives, in-laws (certainly seems a bit less legalistic by comparison)
