Ok… I Need Your Help Again

We worked on our wedding programs this weekend. I am almost ready to start printing them, but we have one minor glitch.


Program 1

Can you see it? (Don’t worry, I didn’t think there was an issue either)


My newphew will be 2 1/2 years old at the time of the wedding. We wanted to include him in the service, but we also recognize that he is too young to expect him to make it down the aisle unaccompanied; especially since he is a little hesitant to do new things.

So we have asked him to escort my mom down the aisle. He and my mom have been practicing for their role for a couple of months now.

When I showed Mr. Corn the program, his only comment was that we have notated that Will is the Mother of the Bride’s Escort, but we haven’t notated that his dad, Guy, will be escorting his mom down the aisle.

My reasoning for not even THINKING that we needed to include this was because you normally wouldn’t include that information in a program and the only reason we are including it at all is because that is Will’s specific role in the wedding. My concern is that if we put who his mom’s escort is, than we will 1) make our guests think we have flipped a lid by including this information in the program 2) have Guy B listed in three different places on the program and 3) possibly run out of space on the page.

What do you all think?

Here’s what it would look like if we add it in:


Program 2

Here’s what it looks like if we separate it out by person instead of role in the wedding (to keep Guy from having his name up there three times):



Program 3

And this is the same thing, just with the font for the names and titles switched:


Program 4

Should we …

…Keep it the way it is?
…Not have either in the program?
…Have both in the program?
