Programs are a relatively new invention in the world of wedding ceremonies that have become increasing popular and expected by guests. We realize that they are something you can do without. Some brides want to skip them to save time or money. We say don’t do it. Your guests will miss them.

Programs are not that expensive to buy, downright cheap to make yourselves and an easy way to let your guests know what is going on. Besides having a listing of the order of the service, they list all the important players and as an aide-moire for their names later on and can even contain information such as the address and directions for the reception. Programs can tell the guests who the memorial candles are in loving memory of and even list your new address if you are moving after the wedding. It’s a great place to thank all the people that helped you put the wedding together, parents, friends, etc.

So do your guests a favour and give them something to read that 30 minutes or so that they are seated waiting for you to come down the aisle. We're sure that they will appreciate it.

You can find lots of examples by searching the web. Here's one example of a program that we thought was exceptionally well designed and communicated all right information.
