Pretty Paper Decor
We love pretty paper! As an alternative to traditional flowers, paper décor is a creative and fun way to embellish your ceremony and reception! Keep an eye out for paper décor made from recycled materials, and let your imagination run wild. From pinwheels to parasols, paper wedding décor comes in so many pretty colors and designs that you can have a ball with it. And if you are a crafty bride, paper décor makes for cool DIY projects!

Think Pink!
Oh what a lovely color that pink is! Fuchsia…baby pink…blush…bashful…so many shades to choose from! If you are considering a pink palette for your Eco-Beautiful wedding day, the sky’s the limit when it comes to dresses, cakes and decor. For a complimentary color in your palette, pair pink with navy or grey to ensure it pops, or go bold and add in bright yellow! Pink ties and pocket squares are great for summer grooms, so go all out and think pink!

The I Do Foundation
Using your wedding favors to give back is oh so eco-chic! Your guests will appreciate your thoughtfulness, and so will the charity or cause that you choose to support.
The I Do Foundation makes it simple for brides and grooms to honor a loved one or community with charitable donations in lieu of traditional favors. In a snap, you can create a custom place card for your guests that identifies the charity you select and explains your decision to give. You can even print them yourself on the pretty, recycled paper of your choice!

Etsy Love!
Etsy, Etsy, Etsy…oh how we love thee! A must for the Eco-Beautiful bride, is constantly expanding its online marketplace to bring stylish, handcrafted loveliness to wedding celebrations.
If you are already a fan of the Etsy site, like us, you’ve probably dreamed of an opportunity to walk through a space filled with all things Etsy. Well, we heard through the green grapevine that some very lucky folks will have a chance to do just that. This Saturday, Etsy is hosting “To Have & To Hold”, its first weddings event for brides and grooms in NYC! Attendees can meet and greet with some of Etsy’s featured artisans, and be inspired by their amazing creations (like the origami bouquet from NewZLynn pictured above).
We can’t wait to see what Etsy has up their sleeve for this event! Stay tuned, because of course we’ll have to share! In the meantime, check out their Weddings shop for the latest in handmade items.
