Green Wedding
The groom takes a quick shower and turns off the lights, As he strives to help keep the environment clean. The bride knows it's her day and she shows her true shade, As she's taken some steps to make her wedding green.
Here's a few ways to lessen the impact of your special day and make a statement that your guests will really dig:
Let blooms thrive in their natural habitat and instead of cut flower bouquets, create centerpieces of colorful organic fruit or beeswax candles.
Stick with digital photography only-no film. Upload your photographer's shots to an online album and give your parents picture frames made from recycled or reclaimed wood. http://www.recycledframes.com/index.html
Choose a green honeymoon. Pick a vacation destination close to home, offset your carbon emissions from transport, stay in a LEED-certified hotel or locate a sustainable resort.
Save paper - ask your guests to RSVP on your wedding website! You'll save hundreds on first-class postage by being a first-class enviro-citizen.
