I want to get orange ribbon to trim my wedding cake (the baker asked for 1"), but I have been looking for the past 3 days for 1" ribbon and can't find any anywhere!! I swear, I see 5/8", 7/8" and even 1 1/2"...but I can't find 1" to save my life! I've been to 8 different stores in 2 different towns!
Am I just crazy, or do they really not make 1" ribbon?

Buy the 7/8 ribbon

You can probably find 1" in the more popular colors. Orange is not a big seller so most places may not carry all the sizes. However, the closer we get to Halloween you may find 1". You can probably even find it online, however, 7/8 is just 1/8 shy of an inch so I really don't see how it can make that big of a difference. Ask your baker if 7/8 will do so you don't have the added stress when you have so much more to worry about.
Good Luck

I'm sure any ribbon would be just fine... Try to not get too worked up over minor details. The wedding will come and go very fast, and in the end you will get married. No one will remember the ribbon size ...trust me.

They do make it, it's just not as common. If you can't find it at walmart or the hobby stores like hobbylobby you can always try Ebay! You can almost always find what you're looking for there. Good Luck!
Ok I just found this auction on ebay, is this what you need?? http://cgi.ebay.com/1-x-50-Yrds-ORANGE-Double-Face-Satin-Ribbon-25mm_W0QQitemZ110165427915QQihZ001QQcategoryZ83978QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
