Press Release Summary: Environmentally friendly weddings allow eco-conscious couples the opportunity to have a beautiful wedding without sacrificing their green values.
Press Release Body: Brick, NJ (PRWEB) March 11, 2008 - Environmentally friendly weddings and events have joined the green movement. Above & Beyond Event & Party Planning is ready to prove to clients that it is possible to embrace the environment without sacrificing style. When Adele Leonard, owner of Above & Beyond, started her party planning business, she wasn't expecting to join the Green movement. But as someone who tries to implement a commitment to the environment and local community in her personal & family life, Adele thought it was time to try and implement this commitment to her business.
When Adele planned her own wedding a few years ago, she went with a tropical theme and incorporated bamboo flatware, recycled glass, potted plants and hand made sarong\'s in place of table linens. She later gave the sarongs to her guests as gifts to be worn at the beach. Adele also served local seasonal fare and cranberry wine from a local vineyard. Expending on the eco-friendly wedding concept, Adele now offers Go Green wedding planner services.
Adele says that planning a green wedding doesn't necessarily mean huge changes for the bride and groom. Small details such as bamboo or potato flatware instead of non-biodegradable plastic can make a difference to a couple trying to integrate their eco-conscious beliefs into their wedding. Organic seasonal food and locally produced wine are two of Adele's favorite things to include in a green event. Soy based candles, vintage wedding dresses, and organic bouquets are some more ways a couple can reduce the impact of their wedding on the environment.
Adele's advice to those couples planning a green wedding? Don't get overwhelmed. You can find a way to balance your beliefs, incorporate your style, and make sure your guests are at ease. Brides no longer have to fit the stereotype of being selfish and extravagant. Your wedding day can reflect your values and still be special.
The average cost of a wedding exceeds $20,000. It will probably one of a couple's biggest single expenditure besides their home, and it can be an opportunity to support local and organic vendors and be socially and environmentally responsible.
