So how many brides are turning to DIY for their wedding. It seems to be a trend that has picked up significantly over the year alone. With the economy the way it is brides are looking to save while still adding that extra something to their wedding.
For myself I have created my own invitations, center pieces, program fans and am offering origami bouquets to brides who wish to have a bit of fun with their flowers and not spend the ungodly prices.
The program fans are a ton of fun and I have to admit it was hard to find a template so I created one myself. If you are wishing to do the program fans please feel free to download the template off of here.

My fiance and I are getting married and are going to be doing a DIY wedding but we don't see that we need any help off the internet, lol, I know that came off really bad and I am not talking about what you are offering, that's great. Let me rephrase by saying that our wedding is themed and we already have decorations, our invitiations are going to be simple enough, a horse shoe is our idea, and we've got creative people in both of our families, so if our creative juices run out we have people to fall back on!
I like your idea of the program fans though and I hope that you can visitors to your blogs!

lol well I did forget that the horseshoe idea I got indirectly from off the internet. I was just making shapes out of shelf liners (more like the material off the back of some rugs) and looked for a horseshoe I could print and trace, and cut... lol. We do have friends but think they are already set on everything! We're going for the 26th of September but might have to move it back depending on if we can find a pastor. Our pastor quit.
