DIY Wedding Programs


diy program fan tutorial

Materials for DIY Wedding Programs:
- A2 sized folded cards (or card stock cut to size and folded)
- Golf pencils , pre-drilled with holes wide enough for ribbon to pass through
- Popsicle sticks, also pre-drilled
- Scissors
- Needle with a large eye
- Corner Rounder Punch
- Thin ribbon
- Double Sided Tape
Designing your programs on Microsoft Word. On the front side put the basics – names, ceremony details, and any graphics to match your wedding theme ( http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/ is a great place to find amazing vintage graphics I have posted some of my favorites below). On the back, put something for the guests while they waited for the ceremony to start::

Once you’ve designed your programs (making sure to fit the card dimensions), print the front and back onto the outside of the cards. 
Then put double stick tape on both sides of a popsicle stick, covering about half of the stick. Center on the card and press in place.
To start assembling, open up a card and put double stick tape on three sides.

Close the card, pressing to seal the edges.
Using the corner rounder punch, carefully round all four corners.

Cut a piece of ribbon that, when halved, is long enough to reach from the end of the popsicle stick to the end of the pencil, while still allowing enough slack to write on the program.

Thread the halved ribbon through the hole in the popsicle stick.

Thread the two cut ends of the ribbon of the ribbon through a golf pencil.

Knot the ends to secure, then trim.
