Indian Wedding Programs

Wedding programs are typically used during the wedding ceremony to provide guests with information about the order of events, the wedding party, and any special readings, rituals or songs. They can also serve as a keepsake for guests to take home.  

In Indian weddings, it usually explains and illustrates Hindu marriage rituals.

This program could take many forms - a single page - back to back printed insert, booklet styled, or even a fan card.

It encompasses the wedding colors and decor elements. Hindu wedding rituals are usually long and having a small handy program to keep the guests informed puts them at ease. They are mostly used in multicultural weddings. However, it’s nice to have a program card in general to keep the guests abreast about the schedule and events.

For eg. the most common ritual in a Hindu wedding is the saptapadi where the bride and groom walks around the fire and takes 7 vows.

Illustrating it simply and putting together each vow enlightens the guests about what’s happening in the wedding ceremony. It helps them be a true witness to the marriage rite.

Here are a few wedding program ideas:

• A traditional program with basic information about the ceremony, bridal party, and order of events.

• A fun and interactive program with trivia about the couple.

• A personalized program that includes a letter from the couple and special thanks to family and friends.

• A program that incorporates elements of the couple's culture or religion, such as readings or prayers.

• A program that doubles as a fan or booklet with photos and details about the wedding festivities.

The specific timing and duration of each event can vary depending on the couple's preferences and the venue's policies.
