Green Groom’s Guide to Style

Just like brides, grooms have a personal style too! We think its totally cool when green groom’s embrace bold colors and other non-traditional elements (like Chuck Taylors and striped socks!) into their wedding day ensemble. After all, it’s about them too!

This issue’s Green Groom’s Guide focuses on fashion! Kara Horner of The Man Registry shares the goods on the latest in aisle style for the groom, and offers some fun suggestions to get the guys eco-handsome for the big day!

Great things come in small packages!

Some of the best gifts come in tiny packages and boxes.  Decadent chocolates, herbal teas, engagement
rings…

Kids don’t exactly come in packages, but they are indeed small (at least for awhile!) and for those of us who are fortunate enough to have
them in our lives, they are certainly gifts. If you have children attending your wedding, creating a gift just forthem is a super cool way to make them feel special AND to provide a little distraction. We said they were special, but that doesn’t mean always quiet!

Our fave eco-kid expert Stephanie Frazier Grimm of Couture Parties returns in this issue with creative and simple DIY projects for yourlittle guests that will hold their attention while you say “I do” and during the reception while Mommy and Daddy get in a few spins on the dance floor!

Grab your box of craft supplies (or run to your local arts store) and let’s get creative!
