     one parent absent, one deceased - How do I word the wedding program?  

Hi! I am having a hard time coming to a conclusion as to how to word the program to my wedding. My fiancee has 2 sets of parents, and I have none. My mother is deceased and my father has been in a hospital for over 3 months overseas and will not be able to attend. I am walking the aisle alone, but would like to somehow mention my parents in the program. Our wedding will be very casual, very informal, on the beach. But we have people coming from all over the U.S., and other countries, so a program would really be helpful. Any suggestions? I would really appreciate any help!

Dear Picnicbride,

Next to Bride's parents, you could list your father's name and (unable to attend). Under all of the names could be: in memoriam Your Mother's Name.

Your fiance's parents could be listed as Mother of the groom and husband: XXX. Father of the Groom and wife: XXX.

Best wishes,
