Our Wedding Program
We "typeset" our program in Microsoft Word, printed it on our laser printer and made copies at Kinko's. We bought the pink paper at an office superstore. The font is Copperplate Gothic and the only image was the "wedding logo" on front, which Lilly created using a Wacom pen tablet and a paint program.
Since our only theme of sorts for the wedding was "books", we designed the program to look like a book and the text has elements found in books.
The goal of the program was to introduce our ceremony participants so that guests would understand their roles in our lives and to lead guests through our untraditional ceremony.
After copying, we punched holes, cut blue ribbon, folded and tied the pages together. A few days before the wedding, we had to figure out how to inform our guests that our honor attendant was unable to attend due to a family crisis. We decided to print clear stickers and placed them on the dedication page.
Everyone loved the participant mini-biographies and we got many compliments about the program (and the entire ceremony!). All that hard work was really worth it.
