    Adding this link to my blog. Good advice for the bride and groom who want to go green. Love the bouquets you made too!

    Nice work, there's a lot of great stuff featured here. As for wedding favors, you could also make donations in that person's name instead of buying favors (to a green charity).

    These are great. I love the champagne flutes with the baby trees in them. That's a great idea!

    Gosh! Is it just over a year since I first saw this Green wedding lens. Just looking at some green lenses outside the Top 100. Lensrolled to my Going Green Ideas lens and Blessings for you from the green SquidAngel!

    Thanks AJ. It is hard to believe that I have been doing this so long, but writing about green weddings is only getting bigger every year.

    Wonderful lens, 5 stars! Love the pictures of fruit and flowers. Great tips for wedding planning and info on reducing our carbon footprint on the earth. My idea is for the couple to choose an eco-friendly honeymoon destination such as Hawaii, Costa Rica, New Zealand, or a National Park. Choose Hotels that have the Energy Star ratings. Also rent a hybrid vehicle or ride a horse or bicycle. And make sure to recycle.

    Excellent lens. A friend told me about a green wedding she attended...the couple did not register for gifts...they requested handmade items or repurposed gifts. Now THAT'S green! And very cool, I think. Also, congrats on your nomination for the Giant Squid awards!

  • CosmeticSurgeryIreland Sep 25, 2008 @ 5:51 am | delete
    I have been to a few weddings this year that must have cost a lot. I wonder if changing to a green theme would not just be good for the environment but help couples have a more original style wedding rather than paying a fortune for the same look as everyone else.

    I wish I was more in touch with green issues when I got married- I absolutely would have had a green wedding! Alas, I guess I can always do a second, huh? :) I'm also making a green series, so it's so nice to find lenses by like minded people!
  • SignedPieces Sep 12, 2008 @ 9:06 am | delete
    Thank You for making this lens! It's really good to see the ideas of others and not only ideas but Consciousness of going green and stepping up to the challange.

    Maybe the music during the wedding are from environmental artist too, like Jack Johnson, John Butler, etc. which may promote their music also. Everything will be greener. :)

    This really a 5 star lens. I don't know anyone planning a wedding but I am marking this a favorite!

    I think this is a great lens. I enjoyed your tips for the wedding and the tips for green gifts.
  • aquariann Sep 6, 2008 @ 7:12 pm | delete
    Splendid ideas! I never thought I'd get married, but now I'm head over feet in love and wouldn't mind wearing a ring to show people that I am his. If we end up having a real wedding, I'll certainly go as green as I can!
  • LucyVet Sep 5, 2008 @ 9:03 am | delete
    Great ideas! We already got married, but are having a second wedding in europe so my family can attend - I'll be checking back here for ideas!

    Great lens with some lovely ideas. I loved the flattened bottle invitation.
  • saraht43 Sep 5, 2008 @ 12:56 am | delete
    Wow, had never heard of a "green" wedding, except for like the outdoor or maybe on the beach type weddings. Very interesting lens
  • The_Homeopath Sep 4, 2008 @ 10:46 pm | delete
    I love the green gifts section! I never know what to buy as wedding gifts. If they don't have a registry I'm helpless.
  • a_willow Sep 4, 2008 @ 9:37 am | delete
    Great green lens! Love some of ideas here! (and you gave me more ideas for my green lenses) 5* for your green presentation!
  • Shreela Sep 4, 2008 @ 8:34 am | delete
    Those power packs really come in handy in areas that lose power easily. We got ours before solar was big, so we wouldn't be able to charge it up again until power was restored. That would be a great gift for a new couple, even if they didn't realize it at first.
  • CubicleJoe Sep 3, 2008 @ 8:09 pm | delete
    Wow. Talk about a great little niche not only as a lense, but for any current or aspiring wedding planner. Very nice.

    I would still throw rice though.

  • ArtByLinda Sep 3, 2008 @ 3:18 pm | delete
    What a great idea, I know they have been heading there for years...bird seed instead of rice, etc. Kudo's for you for promoting "going green"! 5 ***** to you!

    Great page - at my wedding now 11 years ago my favors were green - I had given a tree seedling in a container that converted into a bird feeder and it had bird seed attached with a little note saying something like - plant this seedling and watch it grow as our love will. You get 5 green well yellow stars from me
