Four Wedding Program Recommendations

A wedding program can be as elaborate or as simple as you want. It’s a wonderful way to let guests know more about your ceremony, and it should have the same feel as the rest of your wedding.

What goes into the program is up to you and your fiancé, but the names of the bride and groom will typically be listed at the top with the date and location immediately following.

Other information you might want to include:

1. Name of your parents, bridesmaids and groomsmen, the officiant, musicians, ushers, flower girl and ring bearer. Choose the people who you want to recognize in your wedding program.


2. Wedding ceremony agenda, including the names of any songs and readings that occur.


3. Personal notes. This may include a favorite poem or quote, a note about special friends or family that have passed on or a special, or information about special religious rituals that are part of your ceremony.


4. Finally, it’s helpful to have a note that requests guests turn off their cell phones.
