Default Re: Program information

I havent decided if I am going to have programs or not, but I remember on my sisters she had the names of the bridal party, the officiant and the names of the songs. It was really basic stuff.

We wanted fans for the heat and to print our poem on, and since we had a decent sized wedding party we combined it all into a double sided fan with a note to guests:

Default Re: Program information

I did program fans but they were booklet style
Click the image to open in full size.
I included the names of our wedding party, flower girls, ring bearers, officiant, parents names. I also include the order of the ceremony (including songs)-this took 4 pages because I made the font kinda large and the pages were smallish ovals.
Then the front page had our names and welcome to the wedding of...
the last page said thank you for coming and a repeat invite to join us at the reception (since they had to go elsewhere).

Default Re: Program information

I did fans with info on each leaf. I included the order of the ceremony, the parents and bridal party, the words to our song that my dad sang, and on the last page a thank you and info on where to go for the cocktail hour and reception.

Default Re: Program information

I am going to do program fans, but haven't narrowed it down yet. I LOVE NurseSarah's fans ... but don't have the patience to make 50+ of those. :-)

Tami, I was inspired by Sarah's also, of course I couldn't cut out the ones she made so I did a design I could use a template cutter with.

Default Re: Program information

This may be a stupid question, but... how are you attaching the program to the fan? With tape? I already have my raffia fans and want to do the same thing as you and attach the program to them.

Default Re: Program information

So i have both sets of my grandparents are alive but only one of them are going to the wedding. both sets of fi's grandparents have passed away. He doesn't want to put in memory of anyone on the fan. So my question is should i:
1. not list any grandparents on the program
2. list just the set that is going
3. list both of my sets and not include his at all
4. list his grandparents and just not show him the program till i have them done. Yes i'm sneaky!!!
