Personalize Programs

About the Couple: Laura and Eric loved traveling to the beachfront community of Southport, North Carolina, and thought it would be the perfect place to tie the knot. Check out all the easy DIY projects they incorporated into their beach-themed wedding.

These DIY programs were personalized with a watercolor illustration created by Eric's mom. Then Laura photocopied the painting onto card stock. She finished the program with a raffia tie.

Budget Saver: Drawing, painting, or designing your own programs will save you big bucks.
