Making a list…checking it twice!
Now that Christmas has come and gone (pretty fast, huh?) it’s time to bring the focus back to wedding planning! The Green Is section of our Winter 2012 issue is packed with eco-finds to help you whittle down that seemingly infinite “I Do” list!
We’ve got gorgeous invites from Smock (shown above), vintage rentals from Archive Vintage, and bridal party gifts from Not for Sale and Knobstoppers! Our list of the best green wedding resources and planning tricks is endless, so settle in with the Green Is feature and get ready to check “to do’s” off that list.

Green Is…about getting Beautiful!
We would love for it to be effortless, but the truth is achieving an eco-beautiful glow sometimes takes some work. And some great products. The good news is that once you put the right items in your green beauty bag, maintaining your glow can be easy!
If you are in the final wedding planning phase or gearing up for the holidays (or maybe both!), there is no time like the winter months to pamper yourself from head to toe.
The products featured in our new Green Beauty feature (like this super cute Green Grab Bag from White Apricot) are just what you need to get your eco-glow on! Get the list on page 20 of the Winter 2012 issue and let’s get gorgeous!

It’s all about Location!
Once we settled on the theme of our Winter 2012 editorial, we knew finding the ideal location would not be an easy feat. There aren’t too many locations that can capture the essence of an Industrial Glam vision! The scene that fit the bill would have to merge a little grunge and a lot of glamour… machinery and a hint of magic …some hotness with a touch of haute-ness. “Where in the world was this place?” we asked. Before long, we had our answer- the Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower in Baltimore, Maryland.
The second we stepped inside the tower clock at the top of this building, we knew instantly that this was IT. With a hair and makeup “dream team”, an amazingly talented photographer, a stunning model, and our rockin’ Managing and Style Editor on deck, the Industrial Glam vision truly came to life! You’ve got to see it to believe it…
