Mother of the Groom... Mrs. Trudi CXXXX
How do I list her boyfriend? They live together... been together forever... don't know why they're not married... they're walking in together... they'll be presenting the gifts along with my parents together.
What do I write? Do I just leave his name out and just write hers?????

Leave him off.
Put for the parents of the groom, Mrs XXX and the late XXX.
He doesn't have to be on the program. Tim's mom is married to Chase and he wasn't listed on the program.

You could put her name and next to it put 'accompainied by'... and then his name

I think you should ask FH what type of relationship they had. If he raised him and/or they are close then I would include him. I like the *accompanied by*
If he's just 'mom's boyfriend' then I would exclude him.
I think it depends how much involvement he has had in FH's life and with the family.

Sometimes it's just not easy to leave a SO off, Trust me I know!!!!! It caused SUCH drama planning my wedding. My mother has been with her SO for a long time, and I had to make certain consessions, to keep the peace.
Sarahradio, he was not part of the ceremony though, so I have no advice. But, you could say what the other ladies suggested. Or you could just put Mrs.XXXXX and Mr.XXXXXX

I do see your dilemma but at the same time I'm not sure if the fact that they're not married really matters. I mean, you said they've been together forever, live together...maybe for whatever reason marriage is not for them...I would also ask your FH and if possible, his mom..she may not care or she may care very much.

I think you should ask FH or even your FMIL how to handle this. My mom just got engaged within the last few months and my dad lives with his girlfriend. Out of respect for them, I would never not include their significant others.
I know I would be upset if someone included FH and not me. Marriage doesn't define a relationship and I don't think marriage is the only reason to put someones name on a program...I would get the families opinion.
