Added clarification from the OP that the family was not complaining about the holiday music; based on a few comments it seems this was unclear.

For instance, White Christmas doesn't have any religious content other than referring to Christmas, Walking in a Winter Wonderland doesn't have any other than mentioning someone who's a pastor. That's very different from songs like Silent Night that have clear religious content. | |

It seems to me that if one family has the opportunity to review the program and it is deemed inappropriate, then the other families should be shown the changes and decide if they will attend. | |

1. Why would you be defending the decision? 2. If you do have to defend it what's wrong with saying that it was "Mr. So and So's" decision or that it wasn't your decision? Stating the facts of the matter is hardly unprofessional.
