Menus

What kind of paper did you guys use to make your menus? Did you use a particular size or just printed on 8x11 and cut them down yourself?

Re: Menus

They do but i am getting conflicting answers when it comes to menus. One bride on the FH thread had a pic of the menu and it had the fox on it at the top, which i do not like. Then another bride said that FH placed the couple's names at the top. I am just wondering just in case i end up having to make my own. I am going with a monogram theme so i would like it to carry all the way through. If FH is able to put our names on the menu, that would be great but if not i would really like to make my own.

we provided them at Raphael- we just used an 8 x11 size of thicker paper and printed two per page and cut them in half longways.

ok...well I think you would need a semi heavy cardstock...you can definitely get an 8 x 11 and cut it in half...guess it depends on how much food you are offering...and how big you write

How did you do that?? Did you use Photoshop? How did you get it to print in 2 different colors? I am an imbecile.

The answer is yes the fox is on top of the menu. However, if you ask they can better personalize it & make them without the Fox logo. Which im going to ask for when i sit with them at my 2 month mark.

I'm not good with this stuff either. I really need to invest in a DIY book. Although my mom and FMIL are so crafty.. I gotta get them on this stuff.

What size paper did you use? were you able to print 2 to a page and if so how did you do it. That's the part i can't figure out.

used stardream cardstock

it was 2 layers, thats how you get the 2 colors. I did brown and pink. The brown cardstock i left 8x11 regular size. Then the pink i printed the menu on that and yes i cut it in half and then used double sided tape to attach the two together.
