Yahoo...the Fi and I just finished our save the dates! We're having a destination wedding in Aruba and decided it would be fun to have boarding passes. We got the template online @ http://www.ayleebits.com/tag/template and the FI's cousin designed the whole thing using her MAC (thanks Andreanna)! The template uses 3 tickets per 8x11 sheet of paper, so all we did was use my paper cutter and a rounded edge punch.
We bought ivory linen cardstock from Office Max ($0.18 per sheet) and lavender cardstock from Ben Franklin (70 sheets for $18). I ordered ivory linen No.10 envelopes from http://www.envelopemall.com ($11.50 for 100). So this project was less than $50!!!
The 1st page of the STD we put our guest names on the right corner to make it more personal (last name/first name). We added a second page to give our guest information about travel and hotel by adding our travel agent contact info. The timeline on the bottom is just letting them know when we arrive, welcome/rehearsal dinner, wedding day, happy hour, brunch, and coming home (respectively). For the boarding pass jacket we used Word to create the monogram.
This project was a lot of fun, not to mention easy and inexpensive!
I am trying to find someone to make 56 boarding pass invitations, with sleeve, RSVP cards & envelopes for $200 or less. I am getting married in Negril, Jamaica in August 2011. My colors are turquoise blue, tangerine and ivory/tan. Anyone willing or know who can make these?
