Paper basics : decide to use recycled paper to print your invites and wedding programs on.

Eco-dresses : your wedding dress can make less of a negative result on the environment when it’s made form all natural materials like cotton and silk.

Natural food goodness: Use organic foods and free-range stock for your guests entrees;)

Give back: give guests an option to donate to the charity of your choice instead of buying charity of your choosing instead of purchasing a table at your reception which features a charity of your choice with supporting information and ask the guests to donate $1 if so compelled.

Believe it or not: There are eco-friendly resorts in numerous places that could be possible honeymoon spots for you and your honey! The web is your resource! Do some research and you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
