DIY Bride?

I'll be the first to admit, the idea of doing some DIY projects for my wedding is exciting. So where did I look first for inspiration? Why, the mother of all crafters of course, Martha Stewart. Her magazines are like works of art, and her attention to detail is like no other, and her wedding magazine is no exception. So it goes without saying that her website, marthastewartweddings.com, would be packed with great projects.
The first thing I wanted to look for was a template for DIY ceremony programs. Oddly enough, one of my fiance's requests for the ceremony was for us to have programs, as he said he appreciated them at weddings he had been to. How could I say no to that? Looking through the sweet gallery of program ideas on the website, I think I found a winner:
Plus, they double as cute decorations for the chairs, instead of flowers, which are a lot pricier. Luckily for me, Martha provides detailed instructions on her website. She used cardstock to make the pockets, and decorated the bottom with a rubber stamp and ink. Maybe I could add a little bling to it? :)
