| When it comes to a wedding we all see the joy and the fun involved but do you see the waste? You probably didn't even realize how much a wedding hurts the environment- not very romantic is it?,Air jordan XIX
Can Being Green Be Sexy? When most of us think of going green you start envisioning scratchy recycled toilet paper and everything in that beige, natural color. But it doesn't have to be blah to help the earth while planning your wedding. In fact, going green for your wedding can be sexy,Jordan 22! Here are 5 Sexy Green Tips for Your Wedding: 1) Yummy Organic, Local Cuisine - Ask your venue or your caterer if they can help you go green. Choose food items that don't have to travel very far and that are grown using organic methods. This will limit the pollution produced to get your food to your venue and the pesticides used to grow it. And organic food has sooo much more flavor and it's super yummy! 2) Rent Instead of Buy- I'm a huge fan of renting linens for a wedding. If you rent your linens from a rental company that follows green cleaning practices then you're keeping the earth happy,Paco Chicano T-shirts! And I just love the look of fabulous linens at a wedding. 3) Share the Beauty - Nothing pains me more than seeing phenomenal flowers being thrown into the garbage at the end of a wedding- yikes!! Instead arrange to give the flowers to your guests to take home and enjoy or donate them to a nursing home. You could also create centerpieces that don't include flowers but rather use sticks or feathers. Don't forget potted plants. You can replant these in your garden later- just please don't put these on the tables with the ugly plastic bottom wrap,Levis Jeans! Pretty them up! 4) Within Walking Distance - We know that most of the family will need to fly in for the wedding so the jet fuel isn't exactly *coughcough* the best for Mother Nature. So once your guests arrive plan your wedding day to minimize car use and maximize the enjoyment of being outside,Nike Air Max Classic BW! Hauling people from one end of the city to another causes pollution and breaks up the party. But letting people walk from the ceremony to the reception encourages conversation, fun pictures,CA belts, and exciting adventure! 5) Meat and Leather Free?- One of the first weddings I ever did was entirely vegetarian and none of the bridal party wore leather shoes. And it totally rocked! If skipping meat is an option for you then you don't have to feed your guests all salad. The meal was meat free but it was incredibly original and made to please even the pickiest foodie. Apparently cows are big polluters so you're saving the earth there (and a few cows). Bridal Advice You don't have to have a totally green wedding but it's nice if your conscious of the impact your decisions make on the environment. Even just a couple of green tweaks to your wedding plans can make a big impact! |
