Cinderella Wedding Program

Cinderella wedding programs bring a bit of magic to your Cinderella fairy tale wedding theme.

If you are planning a "Disney Classics" Cinderella-themed wedding, chances are you are going all-out in repeating the theme. With so much costuming and scene-setting involved, and so many aspects of the story to work in, you won't want to let one detail slip. An ideal place to impart your theme and to leave it as a memento of all your work is on the wedding program.

There are so many picturesque moments in the Cinderella story to draw upon for your graphics. One romantic image to emphasize is the horse-drawn coach. The mythical white of the horses and the way they seem to fly as they run seem to capture the magical way that Cinderella has been swept into her graced new life. Many Cinderella weddings will use a horse-drawn carriage to carry away the bride and groom from the chapel in the same spirit of magic and grace. This image would be stunning in simple white and silver silhouette, or even an embossment, on the cover of your wedding program.

Another Disney Classics Cinderella wedding image is of Cinderella and Prince Charming dancing on the ballroom veranda. Look for possible inspiration for your image among the many types of Cinderella inspired Disney merchandise.

On the other hand, you may enjoy picturing the scene and the characters in your own way and having this image drawn for you. There are many lovely illustrations of the Cinderella tale in children's anthologies. Flip through these for inspiration, and you may find a version or an artistic style, that you prefer to use for your wedding program images.

A popular fixture from the Disney Classics version is Cinderella's friendship with the local mice and birds. Even if you are not following this version to the letter, there is no reason not to use the story element and picture the animals in your own way. These characters would be charming holding an announcement of your wedding on your Cinderella wedding program cover, as nature's witness to the event. They are also small enough to embellish the corners of the inside pages and the final words on the back cover.

Most of the magic of the Disney Classics Cinderella wedding story occurs under a starry night sky. This is another image you can carry over to the inside pages of your Cinderella inspired wedding program. Cinderella is a glitzy fairy tale, so feel free to use star confetti or sequins around the text. Stars may also be used to emphasize a spell, such as the transfiguration of Cinderella, or to surround an image of the glass slipper symbolizing that perfect match "made in heaven."

Are you going for a more realistic effect with your Cinderella fairy tale wedding? Then perhaps you'd like an authentic wedding scroll program in the tradition of the day. A wedding scroll is a single page of text rolled up and tied, usually with a ribbon or tassel. You can create your own easily and inexpensively using a calligraphic font on your home computer. You can buy handmade or aged-looking paper in stationery stores to add to the unique look of your Cinderella wedding programs.

With all the possibilities a Disney Classics Cinderella Wedding program suggests, you won't regret the little bit of effort it takes to create this beautiful element for your wedding day.
