Green Wedding Bouquet

Love is in the air whenever a wedding is near. Couples gaze at each other with pure hearts ready to start their lives on a green path. 


I know it may sound a bit "Corn on the Cobb" but I can't help myself whenever I think of a wedding that is not earth friendly and I think of waste and mountains for garbage. I can't help it.

The emotions expressed at a Eco-weddings are not exclusive to the "wedding couple to be"  it is also for the love of the planet.  Sharing organic wedding bliss with your guests inspires them to spread green love - post wedding. 


The most common trend in Eco-Bridal Gift registries is that the gifts should be unique and from the heart which is so easy because they are so many beautiful upcycled, recycled and handmade bridal gifts.

I always say "anything is possible" and that is the mantra I live by daily.

 
Tis the season of Bachelorette mayhem and debauchery but what if your version of a pre-nuptial femme bash consists of something more subdued and organic.

Outdoor Bachelorette Party
 
Well, you are not alone, join us as we explore the Serene Green Bachelorette Bash. For those of us traveling on a brown rice path to an alternative "off the grid" lifestyle then I think you will like my suggestions or for those of you that are experiencing a second or third walk down the aisle and the thought of crazed women at a male strip club makes you want to hurl then
I've got the answer:

  
5 Ideas for a Serene Green Bachelorette Bash!
(this is for whoever is planning the bachelorette party)

 
  • Outdoor Bachelorette Barbecue: Host your bash outdoors either in your backyard or at a park. Connecting with nature, laughing with friends and not using tons of electricity. Use natural light and or candles to light up at night for ambiance. Ask everyone to bring a dish.

    Beach Bachelorette Party
  • Beach Bachelorette Bonfire: Invite your gal pals to beach midday, soak up the suns rays and then build a bonfire and serve Organic Wine, Barbecue and Organic Greens. Looking for a beach close to you..click: East Coast Beaches or West Coast Beaches.

    
    Organic Spa Bachelorette Party
     Organic Spa Bachelorette Gathering: email everyone an invite to surrender to relaxation and rejuvenation. There a tons of green spas now and trade a gas guzzling limousine for a car pool. Green Spa Pick or Eco Spa Directory.
  • Outdoors Nut Bachelorette Extravaganza: Love the outdoors, nature and exercise, invite your nature buds for a "back to nature weekend" you can choose horseback riding, white water rafting or hiking a mountain and then a night book a cabin or lodge unless you want camp outdoors? I suggest booking a nice place with great amenities. Click here for Eco Cabins in the USA and beyond.

    Lounge Bachelorette Party
  • No Fuss Bachelorette Earth Friendly Shindig: The thought of organizing anything makes you queasy? I am speak to the Maid of Honor or Matron of Honor as well as the Bride if you are an independent woman....keep it low key and inexpensive by inviting everyone to dinner at a great restaurant that serves earth friendly food. Click for Organic Resturants in your area.

"Victorian Inspired" Organic Wedding Favors

Victorian Wedding Dress

Oh, the days of the Victorian era filled with pomp and circumstance, the longest period of peace and fashionable ladies of the day.


What a way to live...well, maybe for one day...I would miss my modern day appliances and the comfort of modern living.

Wedding favors are usually one of the last things on your list and sometimes the gifts you give are not as cherished as your wedding day instead the non degradable gifts gather dust on a shelf adding to the pollutants in the air.


Why such drama for a wedding favor?

Well, think of all the weddings you attended in the past, maybe you remember the day but where is the wedding favor? Or do you remember the wedding favor?


Victorians assigned great importance to the meaning of wedding favors and lavished their guests with luxurious gifts like beaded purses and pillows, ornate picture frames, decorative hand fans, flowers and scented soaps.  

For more wedding favors click on Shoptobegreen Victorian Inspired Organic Wedding Favors page.
