Wedding Programs

Did anyone print them up yourself?

Looking for any tips as I am planning to do this for my wedding this Saturday.

yeah I am printing my own- I got them from this website: http://www.chicaandjo.com/2008/06/18/make-a-modern-and-crafty-wedding-program-booklet/
I bought cardstock and vellum paper, used a paper cutter to cut them all to the size I needed, used a ribbon hole punch and fed the ribbon through... if you don't want to do all of that, you can print the sheets on computer paper and just staple it.

Or, if you want something that doesn't require cutting and assembling, here is a tri-fold template:

Re: Wedding Programs

I did mine in word. I added very little color so I won't spend a fortune in ink.

I did 2 columns per page.
On one side:
Thank-You's on left side and front cover on right side
On other side:
Order of ceremony on left side and bridal party on right side.

I am using 8x11.5 shimmer card stock. I am adding holes on the side seam, threading ribbon through the hole and tying with a bow.

I bought the paper at Micheal's and then printed them on my home printer.
