Program wording

Kelitaw · February 8, 2010

Hi Ladies,

I need your help/advice with wording for our programs. FI's parents are divorced and FMIL is remarried...however, FI doesn't really think of her husband has his stepfather because they were married when he was in his 30's. I need some help with how to list his mom and her husband on our programs.

I found this idea:

Mother of the groom:

Mrs. Sue Jones accompanied by her husband Mr. Frank Jones

What do you think?

One other question...if his father is not attending, we don't need to list him on the program, correct?

Thanks for your thoughts!

I"ve made wedding programs, and this is what I've used in the past...

you can list it as:
Mother of the Groom
Mrs. Sue Jones

Stepfather of the Groom
Mr. Frank Jones

If your FI is close to his father, you can still list his name, but if he doesn't care, then you can leave him out.

FYI, you don't need to follow "tradition" -- it's all up to you and you FI on what you want included.

Hope this helps a bit! Have fun!
