Programs! Programs! Get Your Program!

This is one part I was really hoping to save some money. I was going to do these all by myself and we weren't going to spend all that much on them. But like most everything else with this wedding... I was WRONG!

I created the first program and it was nice, but it was lacking color. So then I was going to cut out some colored cardstock and glue it up there like a border. Yea, like I have time for that. So then we were going to color copy the programs on cardstock. Um... not for $1.09 a copy!

Soooooo while we were at Meghan & Tyler's wedding (and I woke up early one morning freaking out over it!) I thought about checking out Michael's to see what they have. Well they had the exact purple with ribbon that matched and coordinated perfectly! So we found as many 40% and 50% off coupons as we could possibly find and cleared Michael's out. And the one at the beach.

We ended up spending more on the programs that I had originally thought but we're still not too bad since we were able to get them for 40% off. Now I just need to get some child labor students to help me put them together.
