I thought I would put together another feature post of a few of the recent Newspaper Programs I have been working on. As you can see from the samples below these newspaper programs fit many different styles and wedding themes and locations!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you choose to order a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/76464837/mini-newspaper-wedding-program">Mini newspaper Wedding Program</a> for your big day it will be completely custom and will show off your story, personalities, wedding theme and so much more!</div>

located in the country, in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The theme was vintage/rustic/country fair. The ceremony was going to be taking place in front of a tree,
with the guests seated on natural oak benches and the ceremony was going to be decorated with lanterns, string lights, candles, and paper chains made out of old
books. The couple has a love for literature and so we added a 'buy on get one half off' coupon for a used book store. The couple also has a love for music so we added an advertisement for the groom's band: 'Baby vs. Rhino'. We also added vintage pictures of a phonograph, books and a typewriter around their crossword puzzle to add to the theme of their wedding. </span></span></div>

<b>Kara & Jared's</b> newspaper was very unique as they wanted to use their paper as their wedding INVITATION instead of a program. It worked out GREAT! They were able to include all of the details of their day such as the date, locations, times, special features of the day, their registry information, rsvp info and hotel/accommodation info for guests. I would create a newspaper invitation for another couple in a heartbeat as I think it would be SUCH a fun way of getting all your wedding information to your guests.</div>

<b>Michael & Krystle's</b> Newspaper Program feature many cute sections. My favorite section was the feature article on the bride's 92 year old grandmother who sewed the bride's veil. They also included a 'Death of a Bachelor' section on the groom as well as a 'Pet Contest Winner' section for their pets. They also did a 'feature' section on their cake decorator to highlight this person who helped make their day special. This program truly showed off the couple's personalities and was also a special tribute to those that contributed to their day.</div>

</div>
<div class="copy">
<blockquote>
<b>- What was it like ordering / working with me?</b><br />
Simple;
just what I was looking for. It is so hard to find the perfect wedding
program and once you do, you just hope that the person you are working
with makes the process SIMPLE! Kendel has exceeded my expectations! The
program is perfect and she won’t quit working with you until it is how
you want it! Life is stressful enough, Kendel makes it a smooth process.<b><br /></b><br />
<b>-
What is your wedding’s theme / location / venue, and how did the
program help to create that theme or fit into the surroundings?</b><br />
My
wedding theme is Vintage Rustic Country…. It is set in an old renovated
theatre. The newspaper program set the old fashion theme (vintage) and
had a fun symbolism because my family ran a newspaper for years back in
the day. Most importantly, I WANT FUN! This program is 200% FUN!<b><br /></b><br />
<b>- What was your favorite section / most unique thing you were able to include in your program?</b><br />
Everything
about it. Most programs are typical, like an outline of who is doing
what and the order in detail of the ceremony; I didn’t want that. This
program has an ‘I spy’, introducing my wedding party and how we know
them. A write up about how we met and all about my bouquet. Also a
crossword puzzle. I don’t like waiting for weddings…. So, this program
gives you something to do while you wait and it is FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!<b><br /></b><br />
<b>- What do you think your guests will say / think about your programs?</b><br />
They
will think they are unique, clever, and unexpected. You never know what
you are getting with this couple, and that is exactly what I want them
to expect walking into the Theatre! If they say they are totally ‘Amy
and AJ’…. Then, we have done it right!</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Thanks for the AMAZING review Amy! I hope your guests do say that your program “is totally Amy and AJ”!! - Happy Wedding Day!</i></b><br />
<br />
<b><i>Here is what the inside pages of Amy's program looks like!</i></b><br />
<br />
She did an awesome section all about her bridal party and included an article about her brooch bouquet as well as a fun "I-Spy-With-My-Little-Camera" section that will ensure she gets some great photos from her wedding guests!<br />

I recently created a Mini newspaper Wedding Program
for Katherina and asked her a few questions about her experience
working with me on this project for her Big Day. Here is what she had to
say:</div>
<b> * What was it like ordering / working with KO TWO Designs?</b> Very
professional, Kendel was very quick to respond to all emails and was
really an overall pleasure to work with as a Wedding Vendor. She
really made me feel like I wasn't one of many brides that she was
trying to get a quick and finished product to. She made it seem like she
really took the time to answer every email and make sure her customer
was satisfied.<br />
<br />
<b>* What is your wedding's theme / location / venue, and how does the Mini Newspaper Wedding Program</b><b> help to create the overall theme and/or fit into the surroundings? </b>We
are having an "Old Hollywood Glamor" theme - I think the newspaper
programs will be a great addition to add to this vintage and classic
look. We are very excited for our guests to pick them up and read
them!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>* What was your favorite section / most unique thing you were able to include in your program?</b><b> </b> There
are a few selections that you offer that really caught my eye, very
creative and very different. That is so important especially when you
are a couple trying to stand out and keep your guests entertained by
staying different from every other wedding they have attended. My
favorite section was probably the 'Top Story' but the little
Advertisements, Quotes and our pictures really help to make it an
overall special program.<br />
<br />
<b><i>THANKS so much for the feedback Katherina! I hope your guests LOVE your Mini Newspaper Wedding Programs as much as you do!</i></b><br />
<b><br />Here is what the front and back page of her "Old Hollywood" style paper looked like:</b><br />

They worked with various vendors commissioning them to bring their vision of a cozy cafe wedding to life. The shoot was featured on <a href="http://www.weddingchicks.com/">The Wedding Chicks</a> blog and has received great feedback from the site's readers.<br /><a href="http://www.facebook.com/blossomevents"><br />Blossom Events</a> is a Toronto based private and corporate event planning company and, as evident in the Starbucks theme Wedding Shoot, they do an amazing job of pulling together all of the details to make a spectacular event including: Location, theme, styling, decor, stationary, food, drink and merriment!<br /><br />Another stunning stylized shoot that Blossom Events recently put together was a <a href="http://www.weddingobsession.com/2011/06/29/ballerina-swan-lake-inspired-photoshoot/">Ballerina / Swan Lake Inspired Shoot </a>that was featured on <a href="http://www.weddingobsession.com/">Wedding Obsession</a>. Again, their mastery for creating an environment that is fully immersed in the theme and style of the event shines through these images.<br /><br />As a vendor I can say that working with them was a great experience. You can tell that they are very organized, passionate and driven as I received fast responses and clear communication throughout the process.<br /><br />If you are getting married or have an upcoming event in the GTA I would definitely recommend checking them out.<br /><br />Blossom Events:<a href="http://blossomevents.ca/"> Site</a> | <a href="http://blossomevents.ca/blog/">Blog</a> | <a href="http://www.facebook.com/blossomevents">Facebook</a><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">A FEW PHOTOS FROM THE STARBUCKS SHOOT:<br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZSn37IYDlTQZyJ7ocQDH0mMfK8HHZ_s1LkSE2Ynl_K0JHw_xEYkPY5gn-Yrxiueo4lIPExEU_Bplj4L_3q0WCHA69APSM4G_dp59PG8_xsYwc558Eu_Q6TH-jukNywQo1b62nJXw5xTeq/s1600/new-_PNI8031.jpg"><img style="display:block;
