programs... for those printing their own

Where are you getting your paper from and is it worth trying to print it yourself? I want to try this, but I havent' found a good store for paper. Thanks for the help!

I have not bought mine yet but I know that there is a place off of 110 in Farmingdale that has a great selection of papers and program covers. I think it is called The Paper Warehouse. It is right by the United Artist Theatre. I bought my engagement party invited there and printed them myslef. They were very inexpensive.

I got my parchment paper from staples. The vellum I found on ebay- 90pc for $14.00. Its very easy. Just look around at stapels, cederhurst paper and even ebay. Good luck and feel free to email me if you need any help, I save everythin lol

Kelly - I printed my programs, menus and place cards for about $25.00. I bought the paper at the place mentioned on 110. I used a faux petal paper and coordinating solid for everything. They looked great.

My theory on printed items was if its going to be thrown away I'm not spending a ton of money on it.

I got my paper from paper access in NYC- where I work. LI doesn't have many good paper supply stores.

Try Pick Quick Paper at 700 Broad Hollow Rd. (Rt. 110) in Farmingdale. Its near 109 and the airport. Phone #: (631) 845-5325 My mom's company does a lot of work with them.

Re: programs... for those printing their own

Quick Pick! Thats the place I used on 110. They have lots to choose from - way more than Stapels or Office Max. Plus the sheets are loose so you can buy exactly the amount you want.

Re: programs... for those printing their own

Thank you all!
I just called a friend who owns a printing shop to ask how much it would be for him to print me programs.
He said its his wedding gift to me.
Yougirls gave me the idea to call him, how I dunno, but you did!
