To Have and to Hold: Wedding Program Design

Creating wedding programs has been my unofficial business for the past two years. I love designing in Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign ever since Architecture school, and it has carried over into designing items for friends, family, and their referrals for weddings. It gives me such creative freedom and I have so much fun thinking up new designs for each couple. These are some items to keep in mind when designing for someone else:

1) Keep the couple's interests and what is important to them as a first priority, this makes each program unique to the couple.
2) Use the wedding colors in a creative way.
3) Make sure to design a size and shape that is easy to print and fold (and cost-effective).

Here are some of the programs I have completed thus far:

The Wedding of Caitlin and Matthew
Back and Front - a folded 8.5 x 11 program
Inside

The Wedding of Erin and Blake
Back and Front - a folded black and white 8.5 x 11 program
Inside

The Wedding of Lisa and Marco
Back and Front - a folded 8.5 x 11 program
Inside

For more information about these programs, or for a request, please contact me, Corrin Wendell, at corrinwendell4@gmail.com. I would be happy to design a program, announcement, invitation, or save-the-date etc for your special occasion!
