I'm trying to make my programs and I want them to be simple, but unique at the same time. I have quite a few people in our wedding party so I need a lot of room to write. I also want some color, but want something pretty easy to do and pretty cheap...any ideas? I've been googling ideas and nothing is really jumping out at me. Thanks!

We made our own on cardstock with a neat graphic on the front. I just did it on my (high quality) inkjet printer and they looked great!

I know microsoft has some predone ones, and you just put in your information. Then you can just print them on nice cardstock.

I made up one for us, but decided to do a VP rack card instead.

PM me if you would like a copy as a reference or if you want more info.

We did 2 pages, printed front to back so that it ended up being 1 sheet, with 1 half sheet insert, also printed front to back. To add a little extra color, we tied blue ribbon along the spine. We printed them on a heather gray (blue-ish tint) resume paper.

Front: Our names, date, location with 1 stamped/embossed design in the middle that matched our invitations/cake design.

Inside Left: Order of Ceremony

Inside Right: Wedding Party-we listed parents, grandparents, bridal party (4BM, 4 GM), Ushers (4) and officiants (2)

Back: Thank you and In Memoriam

Insert Front: Lyrics to our Sand Ceremony Song

Insert Back: updated driving directions from the ceremony to Reception since they were different from the directions we sent in the invitations due to light rail road construction around the U of M.

I did everything in word, in landscape form using 2 columns.

We had our stationer design them, and then we printed them ourselves on our printer. She charged like $25 for her labor, and they were much cooler than if we'd designed them ourselves.
