     How to list divorced MOG and FOG in program with significant others?  

Crazy MOG and FOG are divorced. MOG has been in a steady relationship for 14 years and FOG has been in a steady relationship for about 4 years. All will be attending the wedding and seated together with corsages, tuxes, etc. How do we list these people in the program?? HELP!!?

Hello Llemay,

You've got a tough one there.

MOG Mary Johnson and George French

MOF William Johnson and Rebecca Wallace

I would not list anything further than that. Hopefully if I'm wrong Rhonda or Rebecca will help us out here.

Dear Divorced Parents,

You could list them as, mother of groom: Ms. MOG and escort, Mr. Escort. The same for the father.

These people shouldn't be sitting together unless they are very good friends. Typically the mother and her escort would sit in the front row with the father and his companion in the third. This usually works out fine.

Best wishes,

It is best to have a row in between divorced spouses.

The second row typically seats siblings and grandparents. The third row seats divorced spouses, their companions, and special guests--aunts, uncles, godparents...

Mother and Father of Groom get along well. Is it still unappropriate to be seated in the same row? And if it is, then Father and significant other should be in the third row, and Mother and spouse in the first? Who else is in the first row?

If they all get along fine, they should all sit together. No worries.

It is the mother's choice who sits with her in the front row--typically.
