Many couples outsource the design and printing of their wedding ceremony programs to consultants and planners. But you can also design your own ceremony programs with just a few tips. You can achieve the same perfection that the professional will attain if you take a look at some of the practical hints we give in this article.

First, discuss the invitation with spouse and both families. You will get an overview of all the invited guests and draw up a list. You will go over the list with your officiant to finalize it. If everything is right, you proceed to the next stage.

The next level is to buy the stationery. You can save some money by designing your own wedding ceremony programs. Shop around for elegant but cheap stationery that any bookshop or stationery store can sell to you. Shop owners will recommend the right stationery to use if you tell him the kind of wedding it is. Based on your answer, he will give you stationery that suits a casual, formal or traditional wedding.

After you have done that, you move on to printing of the stationery. Produce a draft first and upon approval and thorough discussion, you do the printing.

Most programs are printed in portrait style but if the text is long, you can print in landscape. Pay particular attention to font styles, as you need elegant lettering for very formal wedding and casual lettering for less formal ones.

For the best output, print your program with a laser printer and not an inkjet type. A laser printer will produce sharp lettering and will appear as coming from an offset printing press.

Lastly, provide directions to your wedding venue at the back of the program. You can use a map or simply use a diagram to illustrate the location.
