Wedding Program Wording

The wedding program often serves as a first and last impression for wedding guests; for many guests, the wedding program is not only the first thing they see but often the lasting keepsake of the day. Your wedding program should serve as a guide for your guests while also reflecting the stylistic and thematic elements of your wedding day.

A wedding program is more than just an ad-hoc fan on a hot day, it’s an important informational tool and a meaningful memento. Good wedding program wording is essential to a meaningful and well-organized ceremony program.

The Wedding Program Cover

The cover of your wedding program, or ceremony program, typically includes the names of the bride and groom, the date and location of their wedding day and, often, a special quote or sentiment important to the couple.

For some couples, the cover of the wedding program can also be a great place for a special photograph or original artwork. Be it a formal cover format or an artistic display of your imagination and creativity, the cover of your wedding program can set the tone for your big day.

Wedding Program Wording

The core of your wedding program should outline the order of the ceremony and introduce your wedding party, orienting wedding guests to your ceremony and to its participants. The wedding program wording should include the names of those in your wedding party and their relationship to the bride and/or groom.

For many of your wedding guests, the wedding program is their first introduction to the best man, the maid of honor, bridesmaids, groomsmen, and any other members of the wedding party and family. Not only do these introductions familiarize wedding guests with members of the wedding party, they can also spare members of the wedding party from having to repetitively explain their relationship to the bride and groom.

The wedding program is the perfect place to share poems, prayers, meaningful quotes, special stories, or family remembrances. In addition, the wedding program is a great place to print your wedding vows. You’ve likely spent considerable time and energy crafting the perfect wedding vows; printing them in your wedding program can be the ideal way to share your unique sentiments with your family and closest friends.

Of course, for many guests your wedding program will provide a valuable outline for the ceremony. Your wedding program wording can help to ensure that your program is organized similarly to your ceremony and allow guests to easily follow along and, ideally, prevent guests from needing to shuffle through pages during the most important parts of your ceremony.
