Green Idea #1


At ATE, we're always looking for new ways to be innovative, cost effect and green. Well brides, I found a great new cost effect, GREEN way to have a ceremony program that we're sure not too many have done before!

1. Collect about 20-30 pictures of you, your fiance, and your wedding party.
2. Create a slide show with the traditional introductions that you would have in a program.
3. Add pictures and music for a fun twist!
4. Display the program where ever you think your guests might see it! You could have one in the foyer and one in the sanctuary (elsewhere if you are having your wedding sans church of course!)

All you need for this project would be your computer, a projector, the ability to use a program like Microsoft Powerpoint (which is easy to learn and use with all of the helpful hints available online!)

Now... whose the lucky bride that wants THIS at their ceremony? If any of our current clients are takers we'll do this absolutely free! I want to see how this works! Many brides choose to have a slideshow displaying at their ceremony, but we have never seen the actual program posted in the slideshow... so this would kind of be 2 in 1! What a great idea.

NOTE: For the do it yourselfers... make sure that the photographer does not capture the slideshow on your wall in the santuary BEFORE taking it down, and please please take it down before the ceremony starts! We've seen some pictures turn out like this from unlucky ladies that didn't have someone there to tell them otherwise... EEK! :(
