Going to the Chapel: Green Wedding Design

Pin It

It’s that time of year again: wedding season! Here are a few companies helping brides say eco-chic on their big day.

Here are a few tips for going green while wearing white:

The Rings: Make sure you choose conflict free diamonds and recycled gold bands if you aren’t inheriting a family ring. C5 Company, Todd Reed and Brilliant Earth are excellent designers that use recycled gold and raw diamonds thatare responsibly sourced.

The Dress: Check out ANGeLRox, Natural Bridals or Deborah Lindquist for gorgeous bridal collections that are made with organic and eco-friendly fabrics, such as hemp and silk. Heirloom dresses and vintage are also excellent choices and can be a really nice touch for your special day.

For your Bridesmaids: Consider letting each girl pick her own dress in one color. Typically, your bridesmaids will know what works best for themselves and will end up in something very flattering that they can wear again and won’t have to donate (which, of course, is always an option).
