WIN THIS: Shoes from our Cover Editorial!
Sometimes a summer Eco-Beautiful wedding look has to be kicked up a notch! Why not add a pop of color? These super cute shoes (in a size 8), which were featured in the cover editorial of our Summer 2011 issue, would be the perfect touch for a fun, summer wedding gown or rehearsal dinner ensemble!
To win, share with us an eco-friendly surprise that you and your groom have in store for your wedding guests!
(Please note that these shoes have been used in 2 editorials - so they are mildy scuffed on the bottom)
Thanks for writing in! We found our winner!












Oh, cute shoes! In one of my wedding colors (green & yellow) and my size! =)
Right now we don’t have too many concrete details down, but I think one surprise for our guests will be that we’re not having a traditional cake. We’re having assorted mini cupcakes!
So cute! We used reusable grocery bags as our welcome bags. We got a bunch from where my husband went to college, so we like that guests will be green and reuse them, and represent his alma mater.
I can’t believe these cute shoes are in my size! We purchased an assortment of delightful cake plates at local thrift stores to serve our cake on. Not only did we reuse, but we benefited local charities at the same time.
Adorable shoes! Our eco-surprise… I’m making ALL of my flowers out of scrap fabric 🙂 Good thing we’re having a longer engagement!
Love the shoes!
My fiance and I are giving pint glasses as our favors. Guests will use them at the wedding then take them home and use them at home!
We are planning a surprise of little Star Wars things everywhere. Lego Star Wars cufflinks for the boys, our cake topper of Han and Leia, and I’m surprising Paul by walking down the aisle to the Imperial March, on acoustic guitar.
Yay, those are my size!! Would love to win 🙂
We are planning on using herbs from our garden to place ontop of each menu. It adds a fresh scent, a decorative touch, and its completely free! 🙂
Cute shoes in my accent color! I fell in love with the designer Jim Hjelm but instead of buying new I spent hours hunting down the dress I wanted in my size used! I just made the purchase this morning! Hopefully my friends will be inspired to do the same on their wedding day!
So glad I found this website (I don’t know if anything like this exists in my home country Germany…!)!!
We are going to serve organic wine at the wedding party. Plus, I am going to wear the most awesome vintage dress from the 60s. The room will be decorated with flowers in glass vases I collected over the years, so this is my way of recycling and it’s going to be very, very unique.
All of our food, right down to the spices and herbs are grown locally within 50 miles of our wedding location. It was such an experience talking with the chef about where the food comes from, everything is so fresh and local! All of our flowers, only sunflowers, are also grown locally. I’ve been blessed to live next to Pikes Market in Seattle and will pick up our stems there. All local!
Our colors are navy blue and yellow 🙂
As for our wedding favors, we are giving our lovely guest reusable bags.
