Eco-Wedding Ideas:

When planning an eco or "green" wedding, consider how each of your vendors will support the mission of sustainable living. Is produce locally and/or organically grown? Locally grown foods and flowers will cut down on emissions from transportation. Organically grown foods and flowers will reduce pesticides from both the environment and your body. Are paper products recycled or created with alternative sources? If you consider save-the-date, invitations, reception cards, escort cards, menus, and thank you cards you will be purchasing a lot of paper for just one day. Make a conscious choice to select recycled papers, soy-based inks, and alternative methods of dispensing information - such as a wedding website with details. Every product, from the engagement ring to the honeymoon suite can be selected with an eye towards sustainability. Going green doesn’t mean you have to spend more, it just requires considering your choices and the long-term impact on the environment. So now you can choose to say "i do" to going green.
