Parents not attending, should they be listed in the wedding program?
The parents (Dad, Stepmother, Mother and Stepfather) of the bride will not be attending the wedding. They have not been invited and there isn't a relationship between all of them and the bride. Should we still include them on the wedding program? Thanks

If they are not close enough to be invited, definitely do not include them on the program. Shayna Walker, Williamsburg Wedding Design http://www.williamsburgweddingdesign.com

Dear Lostbutfound,
The purpose of the program is to inform your guests of what they will experience and the principal players they will see. So, those not in attendance shouldn't be listed unless it is an, 'in memoriam.'
