Create A Heart Formed Wedding Program

Create heart-shaped wedding programs.


There seem to be endless details to remember when it comes to wedding planning. Don't forget to add a wedding program to your checklist. Guests appreciate being able to follow along with the ceremony, and it makes a nice keepsake. An appropriate design shape for your program is a heart, symbolizing endless love. You can make this type of program with the help of family or friends. Consider adding a Popsicle stick to it, turning it into a fan if your wedding is in a warm season. It saves you money, looks stunning, and keeps guests cool.


Instructions


1. Print the text of your wedding program onto the card stock. Center the text so that it will fit once the card stock is cut into a heart. Consider including details such as music, introduction, speakers, exchanging of vows/rings, list of bridal party names, or a thank-you. Limit your text to one or two pages.


2. Find heart clip art on your computer. Double click on your favorite clip art heart and expand it until it is almost the size of one page. Print the heart clip art on your printer (one copy) on a piece of card stock paper.


3. Cut out the heart clip art with scissors.


4. Use the clip art cutout to trace a heart onto your printed program paper.


5. Cut out the heart shape on your program paper (card stock).


6. Glue a tongue depressor or Popsicle stick in between two card stock cut heart shapes (your printed programs). You may have only printed on one sheet, so the second heart cutout will have no text on it. If you did print two pages of text, make sure the text is facing out, not glued together. You need to glue the card stock together as well.


7. Cut approximately 5 inches of ribbon. Tie the ribbon around the tongue depressor or Popsicle stick. You could also glue a bow to the card stock instead.


8. Repeat steps 4 through 7 for each program.
