Wedding Program

Wedding programs outline your wedding, allowing wedding guests to follow along with the wedding ceremony and any unfamiliar wedding rituals that may be included.

When passing the programs to your guests, there are three options:

  • have the ushers hand the programs as they are guiding your guests to their seats;

  • include children in your wedding by handing the programs to your guests as they arrive;

  • if it is a small wedding you may lay a few in the chairs or pews.

  • At The Wedding Outlet, we have several wedding programs to choose from.  Programs may come as a bi-fold or tri-fold and are left blank inside for you to print your ceremony details on your printer or you may choose to bring them to a professional printer. Below are the four parts of a wedding program.

    Sections of a Wedding Program

    Section I: Wedding Program Title

    The Program Title includes the bride's name, groom's name, date and day, time, wedding ceremony location, city and state.

    Section II: Order of Service

    This section outlines the ceremony segments such as: prelude, processional, solo, invocation, readings, marriage ceremony, unity candle lighting, recessional, etc. You can also include music titles with composer, scripture passages with readers, words for short congregational prayers and any special notations you may have. Usually there is not enough room to include the entire songs or readings. If they are not listed in the prayer books, you can print them on the backside of the wedding program.

    Section III: Wedding Ceremony Participants

    This section lists the participants in the wedding. You may list the participants under separate headings (such as "Maid of Honor", "Best Man", etc.) or you may list all participants under the same heading (such as: "Wedding Participants"). Proper names should be used.  Also use titles such as Miss, Ms. or Mrs. Do NOT use nicknames!

    Section IV: Special Note

    Show your guests you are happy they are sharing in your special day by writing a special thanks to all your guests. You may also include a special thank you message to your guests who have traveled long distances to be with you. You may also honor a deceased relative or friend. Instead of a personal message, you can have a special prayer or poem for your guests.

    In this section, also include any necessary information for your guests.  Information such as release of doves/butterflies to follow in front of church or reception location and time;

    Make sure that you save a few extra copies for yourself. It will make a nice keepsake for your scrapbook!
