PLEASE help me with my ceremony programs!

I need help! i've been working on my programs for months. A few months ago I got a template from someone on here, but I think she had a full mass, so i'm not sure what i'm supposed to take out. I took out some that I know for sure I don't have, but what else? Does anyone have a list of what should be included? this is what I have...

Processional
Liturgy of the word (unsure if i keep this)
Opening prayer
Old testament reading
responsorial paslm
new testament reading
gospel
homily
Rite of marriage (unsure)
Exchange of wedding vows
blessing of the rings
lighting of the unity candle
prayer of the faithful
nuptial blessing (unsure of)
final blessing
recessional


please any help is much appreciated!!

i'm only having a ceremony too and on the paperwork from my Deacon, he crossed off nuptial blessing so I didn't include that....I wasn't sure if there is still a homily tho in the ceremony? Everything else I think is good to keep

so I googled to look for an answer about the homily and i found this....so maybe i should keep in the nuptial blessing?

liturgy of the word is

first reading
responsorial psalm
second reading
gospel
homily


but since u are not having a full mass, i am not sure if should be mentioned since liturgy of the eucharist would be mentioned if you were doing the entire mass.

This is exactly what we did for a ceremony:

Processional (BMs and GMs walk down the aisle)

Bride’s Processional (Bride walks down the aisle)

Opening Prayer (done by our priest)

Old Testament Reading (one of our readers)

Responsorial Psalm (sung by the cantor)

New Testament Reading (one of our readers)

Gospel (done by our priest)

Rite of Marriage (this includes Exchange of Vows, Blessing & Exchange of Rings, & Unity Candle)

Prayers and Blessings (this includes Prayer of the Faithful - reader by my uncle, Blessing of the Couple - done by our priest)

Recessional (everyone walks back down the aisle)
