For a long time, people have relied on printing their wedding programs out for their guests to let each person know what to expect and when, as well as the names of everyone involved. This way of sharing their specials days’ schedules is useful, but as we move further and further away from using paper (both for the environment and for our bank accounts), many brides and grooms are opting for other alternatives to printed wedding programs.
Whether you’re looking for a unique idea or a way to save paper, there are a lot of really fun and creative ways to display your wedding program without printing them all out on hundreds of papers, pamphlets or booklets.
1. Chalkboard

A lot of people are choosing to display their wedding programs by writing on a large chalkboard. Chalkboards go great with many different wedding themes and are easy (and affordable) to put together. The nice thing about using a large chalkboard is you are able to write down anything you want on it. For example, if your chalkboard is large enough, you can include your ceremony timeline and wedding attendants’ names, just as you would on a printed wedding program.
If you don’t consider yourself crafty or would just prefer having someone else create it for you, there are a lot of excellent shops and sites online where you can order a fully customized wedding program chalkboard! Etsy is a great place to start looking.
