and it's like regular computer paper I thought it would be thicker - like a card.
it's pretty, it has Calla Lilly's all over the front, but it's so thin, I think it feels cheap.
What do you all think?? SHould I just use it since I already bought it or should I find something else that is thicker and better quality.

I think it might be fine. If you are really upset though you could always sprayglue it to other cardstock. This way you still have the calla lillies and the cardstock will make it thicker.

I think u should try to find something better. Check Staples, they actually sell program paper...just no lillies....

Without really seeing it the only thing I can suggest is attaching it to heavier cardstock. Is that possible?

I think I know what you are talking about because I used the same cover for my program cover. I don't think it will be a problem to use it.

I would order one coordinating color piece of cardstock per program and use it just for the outside cover - the inside pages can be the thinner cala paper - More like a book that way!

I say use it. I bet no one is even going to notice, well except you of course but we tend to over analyze. It's a bride thing I think.

Thats what FH said - he said most people throw them out after the church anyway so why go thru all the aggravation and to just use the one we have.
Re: Ordered my Program Paper on line and It came....
That's very pretty paper! Too bad its thinner than you had expected. If the Callas go with your theme, then I would probably go ahead and stick with it. If you really want to make it sturdier, you always have the option of spray glueing it to thicker stuff!

An idea might be to aslo get vellum paper which tends to be a little thicker and heavier and place that over the program. That might help. Vellum is also see-thru...might look pretty. Attach a ribbon to hold together

I agree! My program paper is the same. I never doubted it. I think it is fine!

How much did it cost?? If you really aren't into it it may not be that much $ to order a different style/paper

It's up to you, but do you remember what the programs looked like at other weddings you've attended? I don't. With the exception of a few...'people' no one cares what the programs look like -they just want to know who everyone is. And 99% of them will end up on the ground or in the trash by the end of the day anyway. If you're going to be thinking of the programs when you're supposed to be saying 'I Do' well, then I would probalby get new ones.

Re: Ordered my Program Paper on line and It came....
I remember seeing the pic of what you wanted with the lily's..my program paper is the exact same kind, but with a different picture on front, and I debated changing, till I relaized that its just a program and it wasnt worth the extra cost to me..once it was printed and folded, it looked nice. Keep it for a little while, see if it grows on you like mine did and if not, then just get what you love. If you like it, then go for it, it really doesnt looker'cheaper' at ALL, if thats what your worried about.

Great idea. I was going to suggest the same thing.
