A Brief History of Wedding Order of Service Programmes/Booklets

Wedding order of service programmes/booklets have become a staple of modern-day weddings. They provide guests with an outline of the ceremony, details of the wedding party, and a keepsake to take home. However, these programmes have not always been a part of weddings. In this section, we'll take a brief look at the history and evolution of wedding order of service booklets.

• The Victorian Era:

  In the United Kingdom, wedding order of service programmes can be traced back to the Victorian era when wedding ceremonies became more formalized. During this time, the order of service was printed on a small card – often produced by the vicar or priest - and given to guests as they entered the ceremony. For an average weeding service, they would not have been personalised, and would have been re-used time and time again.

• Mid-20th Century:

  In the mid-20th century, wedding ceremonies became more complex and personal. As a result, the order of service became more detailed. It became common for the programmes to no longer be just a small card, but a booklet instead that contained the order of service, hymns, and readings. These booklets were often printed in black and white and stapled together.

• Late 20th Century:

  With the advancement of technology, wedding order of service programmes/booklets became more elaborate. They were often printed in colour, and the design became an essential part of the wedding theme. Some couples even opted for personalized covers that featured their names and wedding date.

• Modern-Day:

  Today, wedding order of service booklets are still an essential part of most weddings. And with the rise of digital printing technology, it is easy and affordable for couples to now produce a fully bespoke order of service design. For example, here at Utterly Printable, we have hundreds of wedding programme designs that couples can design online in minutes. They can add photos, icons, colour schemes and much more.

  Wedding order of service programmes have evolved significantly over the years. From small cards to elaborate booklets, they have become an essential part of modern-day weddings. The design and layout of these programmes have become more intricate, allowing couples to personalize them to suit their wedding theme. And despite the rise of digital technology, we think wedding order of service programmes will likely remain a staple of weddings for years to come!
