Eco-Chic Weddings: How to Have an Affordable Green Wedding


Eco-Chic Weddings

Planning a wedding this year? It is definitely a great time to make your wedding a green wedding. Green weddings do not have to be more expensive than traditional weddings. As a matter of fact, they are often less expensive. Not only are green weddings the height of style right now, they are healthier and better for everyone including the earth. If you are looking for a resource to help you plan a green wedding, Eco-Chic Weddings: Simple Tips to Plan an Earth-Friendly, Socially Responsible, Affordable Green Wedding is a good place to start. It provides all the resources you need to create your environmentally friendly and fun celebration on a budget, such as:

  • Use in-season flowers to save on price and reduce the environmental cost of shipping in non-local flowers.
  • Skip the save-the-date card and save some trees–and a lot of hassle.
  • Don’t purchase items you will only use at the wedding; instead, invest in dresses, shoes, or glassware you will alter and reuse.

From the location to the dress to the menu, there are dozens of easy ways to make your wedding beautiful and still reflect your personal beliefs in sustainable living.
