programs

We LOVE funny wedding programs, and if you’re having a nontraditional wedding, programs can play a very important role in helping your more traditional guests figure out what’s going on. Here are some unique and creative wedding program ideas for you to borrow from

Zine wedding program as seen on @offbeatbride #carnival #wedding

This zine wedding program brings the funny to the ceremony

Christina and Michael’s carnival wedding with surprise Elvis officiant had so much going on. I particularly remember their cotton candy machine since I’m hungry. But man, there was a TON of awesome. Go see it. But the one detail that rocks our world is their zine wedding program created by one of their artist friends. We love a good zine, so seeing one as a wedding program is RAD.

Harry Potter meets Star Wars wedding as seen on @offbeatbride

I solemnly swear these DIYed Harry Potter programs are up to no good

We’ve got a geektastic Harry Potter and Star Wars wedding coming up this week, but I seriously couldn’t wait to share the DIYed Marauders’ Map programs made by the bride, Andrea, herself. They took over 40 hours to make by hand and it shows. The Harry Potter programs opened in three different directions to reveal the sequence of events at the ceremony and a special thank you message from the couple.

Are you seeing the footprints pointing at “Processional?” So flippin’ adorable. Fellow Potterphiles: are you not entertained?! Let’s peek at the rest of these Harry potter programs at Andrea and Ron’s wedding. Stay tuned for the rest of the wedding (including floral R2-D2!) later this week…

Let non-geeks in on the jokes with your geeky wedding program

I hate (like reeeeeeaaaaally don’t like) being on the outside of an inside joke. So I am in total love with how Karen and Terry let their non-geek guests know what was up at their geeky wedding. They drafted up a super informative geeky wedding program, with short and sweet blurbs explaining just what steampunk meant anyway and yes, the Discworld really is flat…

Everything you need for a rad confetti bar

We’ve talked about lots of rice tossing alternatives like flowers, lavender, seeds, lanterns, and sparklers, but sometimes you just want to see a giant display of good ol’ confetti. Having a confetti bar with scoopable confetti and favor bags is an awesome way to let your guests take a little favor and make sure they have the means to shower you with their symbolic love.
