Chalkboard wedding program ideas that are featured on Pinterest
First: I was having trouble finding a framed chalkboard. I was specifically looking for a fancy, antique looking, white frame. It was practically impossible to find. So, at hobby lobby I bought a framed tack board. I flipped the tack board over, and painted the back side with chalkboard paint (can be found at any craft store). When it dried, I put it back into the frame and Voila!!!
Next: I bought a chalkboard marker and some chalk. I found the marker dried nice and the normal chalk smeared easily. I do NOT have good handwriting... So I had my cousin do all of the writing! We also used a gold sharpie on it. Our wedding colors were white, gold and blush... So this really made it pop. It turned out beautiful!

Here is where I got my inspiration.
