Our venue can be a little tricky to navigate, so as soon as guests exit the elevators, they’ll be greeted by this little number:
I purchased metal easels from a craft store to display this on the table. The table also helps block people from making their way into the reception area by accident. At my firm’s holiday party this past year, a caricature artist asked us what we’d like him to draw us doing, and ta - dah - getting married of course!
Now through the restaurant and to the ceremony, where do I go? Well I have some reserved seats labelled front and center for us. I prepared it so that it’d be an easy job for our friends helping us set up to wrap the labels around the seats.
Zots to secure the card to the ribbon, then zots on the back side with the paper stuck on it, so they can be easily removed and attached. I only reserved seats for immediate family, attendants that are part of the ceremony, and our flower girls’ parents because I didn’t want it to seem like there was assigned seating and be unfair to others that arrived early to get seats.
My programs are another heart and soul project. Again, my friend recreated these graphics for me and I just plopped them in powerpoint to print. I gotta say, proofread, proofread, uh, PROOFREAD. I wasted tons of ink and paper (which will shoot up our costs) because I’d do a large batch and realize I had a typo and it drove me bonkers bc I’m anal like that, and I’d have to redo it. But here they are …
I’m hamming out more details and will have more templates to share! You just wait.
I love the tissue! What did you wrap them in?
What kind of information are you supposed to put in a “program”? I am still debating on whether to put one together or not…
the tissues in the back, nice touch!
i can’t say that i’ve seen that before. i am quite impressed, lol…..
they look great. i will be making our wedding programs….thanks for the tip. i have a way of rushing when i think i’ve finalized something.
Miss CB, do you happen to have a template for your PPT programs? If so, if you don’t mind sharing, can you send to me at jlbuch34 at aol.com?
Hi Miss CB! Where did you purchase the ribbon for all your projects?
Pretty! I love, love your color combo!
How’d you get those flowers on the paper? Is that the stationary? Please send me your template!
Thank you!
can i please get your program template? it looks great….way to go
May I pretty please steal your tissue idea? I <3 it!!!!!
@Laura: I got them from Paper Source. Here is the link … http://paper-source.com/cgi-bin/paper/32201811.html?cm_id=2530.020
@GreenApple: To keep it simple, most people opt to do one pagers that can include the wedding party listed and possibly the order of the ceremony so guests know what to expect. I got ideas from Mrs Ladybug: http://www.weddingbee.com/2007/01/31/menu-and-program-template/ and also Mrs. Eggplant’s:

@JangerToBe: I wouldn’t mind sharing … bc I have other templates being shared but unfortunately, I couldn’t share this one bc I’m actually embarassed, I have a million boxes, big and small stacked on each other so that it’d line up the right way. I’ll try to come up with a blank one to share with you all, to give you the basic idea. I’m not technically savvy enough with illustrator, etc. so I went the Powerpoint, simple route.
@catherine: I purchased all my ribbon from papermart.com and I love them and their service!
@Leesuh: unfortunately I cannot share the graphics bc my graphic designer friend recreated those for me. I’ll try to come up with a template for the wording that everyone can follow and use.
@amy: As I’ve told the other girls, I will try to come up with a blank template for you to use as a guideline.
@melvb927: Go nuts! I’m glad you like it!
omg! very classy. Can i see your template? here is my email…charissa_feliciano@yahoo.com
@CHACHA: I have to create a template to share with everyone. As soon as I do, I’ll share it in a post. Unfortunately I have to warn you that I cannot share the floral background as my friend created that for me and ask I not share it, sorry.
