Re: Program question
Parents of the Bride
Mr & Mrs. so-and-so
Parents of the Groom
Mr. and Mrs. Fi so-and-so
Maid of Honor
(insert name), (insert relationship) of the bride
Does that make sense????
[QUOTE]I would go with the detailed version, but modify it a bit. I wouldn't list the bridal party members under the processional. I would make a section near the end of the program specifically for the wedding party.

ohh - I'm doing all that.
I guess I was wondering if people care what song the bridesmaids are walking to, or the name of the poem that is being read - those kind of details
We chose to include the names of the musical selections and readings, but I've been to numerous (usually casual) weddings that don't list specifics, or don't have programs at all.

I did this. Music is special to us, and I worked hard to pick songs and readings that meant a lot, so I wanted to print their names. I also printed the readings on the next pages after the order of the ceremony, since we had some folks who were hard of hearing and I wanted them to be able to follow along.

It depends on what you want and how much room you have. Our programs only gave us 2 small pages of writing. One was all the names of everyone involved, and the other was the ceremony line-up, which for a Catholic ceremony is long. I originally put all the info in including songs, Bible verses, and such, but it looked to cluttered so I took it out. If you can put it in great, if not its no big deal. At least put your readers names and the names of anyone involved in the wedding.

Married!
I really like reading how people describe their friends and family that are in the wedding paty!
