What should go on the back page of a wedding order of service?

Short answer

The back page usually thanks your guests, names the people who helped, and gives practical details like directions or the nearest station. You can also add a line about confetti or photographs. Keep it warm and simple, so guests feel appreciated and informed.

The back page is your chance to close the service with a few kind words and useful notes. Most couples thank guests for coming, and mention the venue staff, musicians, and anyone who helped with flowers, readings or the ceremony. You might also include a short line about confetti, such as whether it is allowed and where to throw it, and a note about photographs, for example whether guests are welcome to take their own.

Practical details are very helpful here. You can list the nearest station, taxi numbers, or a simple map if the venue is tricky to find. If there is a drinks reception straight after, say so, and mention where it will be. If you are having a religious ceremony, the back page might also carry a short blessing or a verse, but that is entirely your choice.

Keep the design clean and leave plenty of white space. A small logo, a monogram, or a simple illustration can look lovely, but avoid clutter. If you have a wedding website, you can put the web address here, but do not rely on it for essential information. The back page should work on its own, even for guests who have not looked online. End with a heartfelt thank you, and perhaps your names and the date, so the booklet feels complete.
