     Wording the wedding program with deceased parents  

I really need someone to make an attempt at helping me with the wording of my program.
  • I am the bride -- my father is deceased for many years therefore my brother will be walking me down the aisle.
  • The MOG and FOG are divorced (they do NOT get along), therefore the MOG will be walking the groom down the aisle
  • The FOG will be walking with his wife of many years down the aisle.
  • the stepfather of the groom (MOG's husband) will be walking the MOB down the aisle.

How do I word the program to include all of these people properly? Unsure

I'm confused. Are the fathers ushers? Why is the mother of the groom walking the groom down the aisle? This is common in Jewish weddings, but the other elements aren't the same. I don't have a clue in what order all of this is happening, so I can't figure out how to write it.

In your program, you would note all of the players names at the top--parents, their spouses, and bridal party. Then you would name the people and elements, such as escorting down the aisle, in the order in which it happens.

Best wishes,
