A wedding program should include both partners' names, the date and venue, the order of ceremony with readings and music credited, the wedding party by role, and what happens right after, like photos or cocktail hour. This template covers each part. ### Is a wedding program the same as a wedding day timeline? No. A wedding program is the printed piece guests hold during the ceremony and keep afterward. A wedding day timeline is the private schedule for the couple and vendors covering the whole day, from hair and makeup to the last dance. ### How many wedding programs do we need to print? Print one program for every two guests, since couples often share, plus a few extra for the officiant, photographer, and keepsakes. For 100 guests, 60 to 70 programs is usually enough. ### Is this wedding program template free? Yes. You can customize the wedding program template for free and download it as a print-ready PDF. Give the AI your ceremony details and it fills in the order of service. ## Related reading - [How to design a professional PDF](https://buildpdfs.com/guides/how-to-design-a-professional-pdf) - [Create a PDF without InDesign](https://buildpdfs.com/guides/create-pdf-without-indesign) - [From Word or Google Docs to a professional PDF](https://buildpdfs.com/guides/word-google-docs-to-professional-pdf) [Use this template](https://buildpdfs.com/signup?templateId=wedding-program) — free, no credit card required.
