The Beginning


The bride-to-be has no shortage of decisions that may, at times, bemuse her with their possibilities.

The easiest decision for this bride-to-be: saying yes to my wonderful fiance amidst the Mediterranean's grandeur.

The next easiest decision: agreeing to make our wedding as green as can be.

Though the location, date, color settings, and venue have yet to be set, having an eco-friendly celebration has long been a goal of mine.

The goal was solidified when I learned from terrapass.com that the average wedding accounts for 145 pounds of carbon emissions. Yikes!

It is with great excitement that I begin planning my dream green wedding. I hope it is helpful for anyone else organizing an eco-conscious event, too.

Step One:
In lieu of a wedding binder, it seemed fitting to put my findings online- saving paper and resources.
So, let the planning begin!

A big thank you to my future mother-in-law for her fabulous idea to make it a "dream green" blog!

And major thanks to my future husband without whom this dream green wedding would not be possible.
I'm thrilled to begin our journey together. :-)
