idea for menu cards. . .

Since we are receiving SEVEN!! entree choices from Fox Hollow, I was thinking of using a slim menu program and DIY-ing it into a menu. What do you think of this idea?

As long as you don't mind the effort and the expense of not using RH provided menus, sounds great!

If I had the extra money and patience to do it, I would. But apparently my gestapo of an RH doesn't allow us to provide anything DIY

They don't even personalize them to say your names and the date? Wow.
Are you going to use a single slim menu card, or a folding slim program? How many choices of entree do you have? I'm just afraid that I can't fit them all on a single slim menu card!!!!!!

i think the slim menu would look nice.... i think it makes it look a little more elegant almost like a wine list

I'm just trying to decide whether I should buy slim programs and just print the menu up like a folding menu. . .how am I going to fit 7 entrees, an appetizer duet, an intermezzo, and dessert on one slim card without straining anybody's eyes????

i have 5 dinner choices so i'm in the same boat but i think of it like this......
when you go out to eat the font isn't exactally huge but you don't want to use a crazy teenie tiny font that even you can't read

That's what I was thinking as well!! They're going to get the appetizer duet and the wedding cake/dessert no matter what. . .they don't need to know what those things are!! Knowing what all seven choices are is definitely more important (not to mention easier to fit on a single slim card).

I think thats a good idea, especially since they have so many choices to choose from

I like the slim menu cards. This is what I made for my DIY rehearsel dinner invites but the style can be the same for the menus.

Re: idea for menu cards. . .

Ooh, where did you order that one? I love the font--although small, it's still legible!

Re: idea for menu cards. . .

yes..it looks small but they assured me it would be better in person as this is the normal size people order. i got it from forthemodernbride.com
WM personalizes the menus for you so i wasnt going to make or buy them but I won these!
