Essential or Extra - Ceremony Programs

Extra. I will likely be having these (gotta save one for the scrapbook) but people ALWAYS without fail, will leave them all over the ceremony site. People only look at them to know what time this thing is going to be over or to follow along. Maybe i will print just a few for the scrapbooks but not even hand them out lol

Extra! These are the biggest extra ever lol! They just end up in the trash or left behind.

Extra. Usually the cermony should only last 15 min to 30 min.

For us, it was not essential. I consider programs an extra. We didn't do them. I actually haven't been to any wedding that had them.

I bought a big mirror (dollar store), stencils, and liquid chalk markers. I am going to do all program information on the mirror and have it displayed at entrance of wedding and reception

Extra. I think it’s only really needed if it’s a religious ceremony or something extra.

For a lengthy ceremony these would be essential, but I'm not using any. Grand total, the ceremony is only a half-hour, and everything is simple anyway.

Extra. We are not going to do it because we have a short ceremony.

Extra. Save the trees. No one is going to take it home and no one needs to follow along in a program.

I want to say extra, but since we are doing a Ring Warming Ceremony we may have to have them so that we can give a bit of a blurb about them so everyone understands what is going on! Apparently none of my friends or family members have heard of this so everyone is clueless.

I think it'll be super helpful if you have them. I'm interested in knowing more about the ring warming ceremony as well, I've never heard of this!

Extra. We are skipping them.

Nope, waste of paper and its pretty straight forward, Ceremony, pictures of immediate family and wedding party, and the party--- NO COKTAILS for us

We're making one poster size, framed and that's it.

HIGH FIVE- Us too!!

Extra! Waste of paper. If you want one as a keep sake, print 5 or something. If you really want everyone to know your flower girls name, then list it on a board that can be reused... Not paper that definitely ends in the trash.

And a picture is an easy way to capture it for a scrapbook!

Extra. We're skipping them for sure

Not doing this, just putting up a chalkboard sign with the names and rolls
