Our Wedding Process


The Invitations

The presentation of our announcements were very important to us. However, we didn't want to spend thousands of dollars like many of our friends. On the other hand, we knew if we did make the cards to save some money it might make the invitations look very cheap. We did some shopping around and found a software program that was designed to create invitations on blank cards. With so many tools available via information technology we found a cheap alternative to make nice,comprable, cards to that of an actual card company. The cards came out very nice and were personalized. We recommend taking some time to make your own cards. However, we do warn that customizing the cards will take some extra time and patients.


The Bridal Party & Attendants

We both have our select friends who we have grown very close to. Thus, it was very difficult for us to choose amongst all of them. Even harder was the task of choosing our best man and maid of honor. So, we concluded we weren't going to officially designate anyone those titles. We appointed a total of five bridesmaids and five groomsmen for our bridal party. Those who we wanted to be a part of the occassion but couldn't be included in the bridal party were designated either ushers or attendants for various functions throughout the wedding.


The Wedding Theme

We had not been exposed to many weddings and were exploring new territory with all this planning. Some friends and relatives have been to multiple weddings and had some ideas. Those ideas were helpful for helping us find a template to build upon but still left us with many questions. We had a particular feddish with Precious Moments Figurines. So we ran with that idea for the theme. Not everything is easily found with Precious Moments wedding items and it took a bit of searching via Internet and local stores to find them.

The color of our wedding will be periwinkle and thus the remainder of the wedding will be designed around that color.

Here are some of our favorite Precious Moments links:

The Wedding Programs

This was the simplest of all the planning. There was some creativity involved but, the computer did it all. We used the formating tools and were able to make the needed cover and contents without much cost. If you are thinking to outsource wedding programs and you are on a budget, it will cost more money than it would to fool on the computer for a while. After the wedding we will scan the program since we don't have it finalized. For those who will be attending, you'll see it there!
