please post pics of your program - or sample

I am convinced I must do programs and need ideas.

A bride today (Glen Island Harbour Club) had nice ones with some kind of gold edged paper and tassels. I did not attend the wedding but my hair stylist helped to fold the programs last night. She did not keep one so I have no pic.

I want to use some kind of vellum cover (translucent or opaque - not sure) or maybe cardstock?

I am also thinking of a booklet type program cardstock or vellum outside and bond inside but am concerned about how to tie them (and with what). I have to put in info about FI's deceased mom and the reading (dove release). as well as bridal party info and thank you's.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Anyone?

Re: please post pics of your program - or sample

Hmmm. Nobody has a sample?

I spent the day looking at paper in Manhattan and bought a lot of paper samples.

Well, I will post mine.....just finished it.

I had no purple satin ribbon in the house (since I didn't think I'd need to bind a folded program) so I used red. Unbinded it slips apart easily.

For those with booklet programs, what are you doing about the blank pages in between?

I am thinking I should glue them together? or cut the interior pages and bind it as 4 pages with blanks all on the back (not in between)?

Wow, you did it already? Nice ring shot.

Hey, I like the program but the only advice that I offer is to center your names on the cover.

ETA: Oh i see in the second pic that it is centered. nICE

Re: please post pics of your program - or sample

could you just print on front and back and fold in half to avoid the problem?

sorry i have no samples...i haven't actually printed it out...maybe i will though lol

Yeah, it's really sparkly in al sorts of light.

I made a sample today and it's 4 pages. I'll post the other pics. The front is vellum with only our names & the info (viewable through the vellum) is on page one.

I printed on both sides now - fed it back through the printer.

pretty easy. I figure I can make 100 programs for under $50 with vellum and bond paper (plus some ribbon).
