Programs: Are you having them done or DIY?

This is yet another thing I forgot I need to tackle. If you're DIY, where did you find ideas, templates, etc?

And how many are you having?/

    I DIY'd this. I had a catholic wedding, so I just googled Catholic wedding program template or something along those lines and found lots of ideas. If you PM me your e-mail I can send you what I have!

    I DIYed this.  I made 4x6 booklets so we could include a little blurb about our relationship with those in our WP.  I have pics and the template in my bio if you're interested.

    We had them on a table for guests to pick up as they wanted.  We made 75% of the number of invites we sent out.

    We sent 130 invites, had 190 people attend and made 105 programs.  We had 5 left over.

    So, we used 100 for 190 people.

    I DIY'd Here's my inspiration pic-they are sorta similar to @hz's as they are booklets, but they are 8.5x11.  We made 100 for 148 guests attending.




    I'm having a full Catholic mass, so mine are in that format. I used a Publisher template from another Knottie, but then had to change it to word so my mom could print them for me. The inside is just one 8.5x11 sheet of paper, but we had to trim them a little so they didn't stick out on the sides.

    Ours are DIY as well. It was easier for me to do a half 8x10 piece of paper. Just a one page on the front with some ribbon to tie the colors in.
