Because we all know how much I love paper, I knew from the beginning that I wanted special programs. I found my inspiration via Martha. Take a look (if you can avert your eyes from the groom in seersucker, of course): Landscaped design, ribbon binding, small enough to slip into a suit jacket pocket or a clutch. Adorable!
Amy cooked up a few fun designs for us. Here's the one we chose:
We're working on the interior now, but I think once the insides are printed, I'll be binding them with these ribbons:
I always keep programs from weddings (this explains why I'm a packrat). But I love looking back at them over time and remembering the ceremony. I think these little beauties will definitely be keepsake material.
PS: I'll take photos of the real deals when we have them all assembled, and they will make my ever-expanding Detail Shots List for our photographer, too.

can't wait to see! the designs and the ribbon are great. my program ended up being about 12 pages long because i wrote stories about each attendant in the program and printed lyrics to one of the songs. i think ours was a keepsake, too-- at least it was to me! :)
and i keep wedding programs all the time too!
You know, seersucker ain't actually immoral. Except, like madras, its heritage is one of Anglo Saxon response to colonial heat and humidity. I personally am still quite fond of seersucker. From an aesthetic, rather than political, perspective.
As is Maggie, LPC, I assure you. Otherwise she probably wouldn't let me wear it on our wedding day ;-)
i don't know whether to thank you or be mad at you. i wasn't going to do programs but those little books are so cute and i could maybe do it at home. hmmmm....
