Programs yay or nay

Beckie, on August 8, 2021 at 2:43 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 1 12
We are doing a very short wedding ceremony. I know they will end up getting thrown out so I was thinking instead of having a program for each person doing some alternative. Like maybe one for each row or a big sign that has it on there? What all is typically included on the program? Thx in advance.

    Honestly, you can just skip them all together. Most people don't take them or look at them anyway, and they get thrown in the trash or just left on the seat. If it's a short, simple ceremony, people can follow along just fine without them.

    Just skip them, additional signage isn't needed

    Nay - not necessary unless you are having a unique/religious ceremony that would otherwise be difficult for guests of another faith to follow.

    Skip them and save or put the money towards other things. Everyone knows how weddings go at this point...no need to waste money on telling them what they already know.

    Unless you're having a religious ceremony, you can easily skip programs. We did have programs and we included the order of events and short explanations about the rituals, and we also listed the wedding party, but that was because our ceremony was a Jewish one. If yours is secular, then I'd probably skip programs altogether

    Skip. No one reads them anyway. Regardless of if they are individual programs or a large sign.

    Definitely skip them. They get thrown out and for a short ceremony nobody will need them. It’s a great place to save money and stress.

    I say skip. As a guest, I've never kept a program and thrown it away right after.
