Program or No Program?

You are right, J and G.  I have the same problem....my WC is telling me the same thing!  Maybe I should just get fans for the guests!

A program is something I hadnt even thought about until now!!

If you have never been to the Palladium, You will love it! Such an amazing resort.

We originally wante dto get married there (saw some beautiful ones!) but it was out of the price range for our guests .

I love hearing that, J&G!  Yeah, most of our friends/ guests couldn't afford it either.  So, we only have 24 people coming, but we are fine with that!

Do most resorts include a program?? I should check and see with the Wedding coordinator at Dreams about this.

I'm not doing a program - I did order fans for everyone though.

Where did you order the fans from?

This thread helped me so much! Convinced me not to do programs, lol I guess I will just buy those fans.

Thank you to all!

I have been searching for the fan program template. Could you or anyone else who has the template, email it to me please. Thanks!!

I made programs for my upcoming wedding.  I made them myself (well with the help of my wonderful sister in law and mother in law), and they really were pretty easy to make.  I bought Raffia fans from Orientaltrading.com, got some ribbon from Michaels and wrapped the handle of each fan in ribbon, used hot glue to keep it in place.  I also purchased silk orchids from Michaels which I pulled the bud off from the stems (they just popped right off), and hot glued that onto the base of the handle.  I designed a simple program on Microsoft Word, printed them up on pearlized paper, and use glue dots to affix them to a pretty colorful cardstock paper, and hot glued that onto the fan.  It was a piece of cake to do it all, and so much cheaper than buying pre-made fans.  I basically just copied it from some sellers on Etsy - they go for about $4.50 - $5.00 each when you get them from Etsy vendors.  I did it for about $2.00 each.  It's adding a lovely touch to beach wedding we're having.  Can't wait for them to be handed out to guests!  By the way, I decided to do 1 program per couple, rather than one for every person.
