How to Word Your Wedding Program for Different Themes

Your wedding program will give your guests a detailed list of who and what they will see on your big day, from the wedding party to the order of the ceremony, the songs, and so on.The wording on your wedding programs can easily reflect the tone and style of your wedding.You don’t have to stick with traditional phrases on your stationery.Instead, how about wording your wedding programs based on your personality and your wedding theme?Here are some creative wedding phrases based on your theme.

Rustic/vintage
A vintage wedding routine may require romantic, poetic language. Stick to traditional phrases such as “wedding ceremony,” “welcome,” “sacraments,” or “marriage celebration.”Make sure the fonts you choose do reflect a vintage aesthetic, but are still easy to read.

Destination
Tying the knot on a beach under the sun?Consider printing your wedding routine on a fan to keep your guests cool throughout the romantic ceremony.As for the wording, consider a paragraph that reflects the context, “a perfect shell is a gift from the sea, as beautiful and unique as our love.”

Modern/funny
Make your words count — keep them short, sweet and simple.Consider listing the order of events in a timeline, or stick to a short list of events, such as “ceremonies under the pergola, cocktails on the patio, and dinner under the tent.”In the “ritual order” section, one couple simply wrote: “the music played, we got married, everyone went to the party.”
