The Proper Wedding

I put this here because this is one of the many things thats causing me to feel very overwhelmed. I'm working on printing my programs. I love them. But here's the problem..
Originally I wanted our invitations to be rolled up into scrolls, because it would fit in with the medieval theme. Well, I quickly had to give up that idea (which my heart was set on) because in order to send scrolls, we'd have to box them up so they don't smoosh in the mail..and well, we can't afford that. So I settled on rolling up the programs into scrolls.
That was all fine and dandy, until I talked to my pastor about the ceremony. I was just going to basically list names of who was involved, but not actually put down the order of events (who really reads that?..at least I never do). Those would have fit nicely on one piece of paper. Rolled up nicely.
My pastor was talking about the programs and basically convinced me I need to put all that extra stuff in. Ok, great. I got it to sound good and look good...
.....Have you ever tried to roll up a piece of paper that's folded in half???? It doesn't roll up nicely. I have 20 something done now. I kinda hate them. They look sloppy to me. Which really upsets me (I know this is something stupid and minor, but I got other issues going on too right now, so it seems like a bigger issue to me right now lol). I had my heart set on having some sort of scroll somewhere in this wedding. They look so much better just folded in half and left there. I could re print the ones already rolled up (because now they're rolled and won't lay flat). I only have about 20 something done.
Lukas is sleeping right now, so I don't want to wake him up and ask his opinion. I really hate waking him when he doesn't have to get up for work. And the next 4 days he's going to have to get up early. So I wanna let him sleep. My mom is apparently at work, I can't get ahold of her. Won't get ahold of her till later. I wanted to get as much done before I go into work today (at 1) because I planned to go shopping for something for my MOH afterwards. Which would leave me whatever's not finished to finish at my mom's house tomorrow night after we're done decorating and Lukas and I part ways for the night. But I don't want to be up really late working on these stupid things!
