With all the talk of green living in the media, having a green wedding is something many couples are considering. And it's not as difficult to plan as you may think. Here are a few simple ways that you can have an eco-friendly wedding:
- Tell your florist that you only want to use organic and locally grown flowers
- Order your invitations on recycled paper - Oblation Papers offers a beautiful line of invites on recycled cotton handmade paper
- In lieu of traditional wedding favors, make a donation to an environmental charity - The I Do Foundation has a list of a dozen green charities and organizations you can choose from
- Have the caterer and baker create your wedding menu and cake from organic and locally grown ingredients
