Wording for P.H. D.'s in wedding party

It seems pretty formal. That mean's you would have to address everyone else as Mr or Mrs... I just listed everyone's first name:

MOH: Samantha

BM: Ali, Susan, Rachel

ETA: I agree with addressing her invitation formally as you would everyone else, but for Program I've just seen first or first and last names.

Definitely address her invitation to Dr. Xyz, but unless you are listing everyone else as Mr, Ms and Mrs then I would leave it out of the program.

ETA: if all goes well I will have successfully defended my thesis before the wedding. I'm not even sure if I want to be introduced as "Dr and Mr Last Name" or Mr and Mrs yet. I wouldn't expect to see my title in a friend's program, but I would expect to be addressed as Dr for the invite if the person knows I'm a Dr.

I have never seen titles in a wedding program.

I agree with NowASeptMrs. That does seem very formal. I think first names would do for the program.

I've never seen that either, and I see a LOT of programs....

Thank you guys so much for the advice. I definitely did address the STD as Dr. and plan the same for the invite. Currently on the website I did list everyone with titles just in case, but it seemed, like you guys say, a little too formal. I wanted to get some opinions before making any changes. This really helped. First time asking a question on the forum and I am glad I did! Thanks again!

I have seen it on invites but not on a program

I hadn't thought of this until you posted but now you've got me thinking! Three of my girls will be Dr. By the wedding, 2 already are. I think my plan is going to be to recognize the degrees in a little blurb about each of them on the website. That way I can get it in there without using the titles. You are totally welcome to steal my idea!

I have a lot of friends with PHDs and I'm proud of them. But I don't think you need to list the title everywhere. People tend to use them on business documents and such but that's it.

I would also suggest to ask your friend how she would like to be addressed.

You can put it on escort cards/place settings.

A PhD is not a social title.

@Cassandra7 I'm not sure what you mean by that, but in formal correspondence you would address someone with a PhD as "Dr. Jane Smith" the same as you would address a woman without a doctorate or MD as "Ms. Jane Smith". So it is social in the respect that it changes the title used, but normally only for formal correspondence, not programs and such.
