Bridesmaid Unable To Attend

I am getting married in two weeks and just found out last week that one of my bridesmaid will not be able to attend our wedding because of complications with her pregnancy. I've asked another friend to stand in for her, but would still like to honor my pregnant bridesmaid in the wedding program under the other bridesmaids names. Can you suggest a way to word this? (I thought to call her a 'Bridesmaid In Spirit' but I'm worried that makes it seem like she's deceased!)

Dear XCountrygirl,

Couldn't you call her an Honorary Bridesmaid?
