We purchased pre-printed paper for our programs. The front had a picture on it. On the back, we printed thank-yous and our new address, as well as an invitation to sign the mat (so people would know it was there). The inside right listed the following people: parents of the bride, parents of the groom, grandparents of the bride (grandparents of the groom were not present), maid of honor, best man, bridesmaids, groomsmen, ushers, flower girl, officiating pastor, pianist, orchestra director, floutists, french hornist, violinist, worship leader, praise team members, mistress of ceremonies, mat attendant, and "programs" (the people who handed them out). We also put a little note there asking for no flash photography, as this was not allowed by our church. There was an insert with the words for the choruses we used for praise& worship. The inside left of the program said this (Last names have been omitted to protect the privacy of our friends, since this is the internet.):
