OverviewA wedding program is an easy, inexpensive way for a marrying couple to let their guests know myriad information about their ceremony, wedding party and history. While there is no set rule on what goes into a wedding program, there are guidelines that can help you decide what’s right for you.FeaturesA wedding program often includes the following information: Names of the couple and their parents, and everyone else in the ceremony; date and location of the ceremony and reception; rundown of events; title of songs played during the ceremony as well as names of musicians playing (if applicable); and, though less commonly, a history of how the bride and groom met.SignificanceA wedding program helps guests understand the ceremony they are about to witness. It is like a Broadway show Playbill so they have a good idea of what to expect and when.TypesWedding programs come in a variety of shapes and sizes. A traditional program is a folded sheet of standard-size printing paper in a color matching the wedding theme.ConsiderationsThough programs might seem like a waste of time, especially if you think most of the guests will know the information included, they’re a nice and easy way to acknowledge all the people who helped create your special day.BenefitsProviding guests with a program gives them an easy timetable to figure out what’s going on when. This is especially useful to guests with small children or those who might have to make a phone call as they will be able to assess from the program how long they will be expected to stay seated.ResourcesreferenceEssential Elements of a Wedding ProgramresourceWedding Program Templates
