Real Wedding: Andrea + Brian

A historic mansion, shades of pink, flowing sweet tea lemonade (with a little kick) and lots of love set the stage for Andrea + Brian’s wedding day. Their wedding and reception were infused with eco-friendly sentiments–the bride collected vintage brooches from her grandmother, mother and mother-in-law for her bouquet and the groom made the wooden décor signs himself. All of the makings of a sophisticated, Southern celebration…

Many Eco-Beautiful Wedding wishes to Andrea + Brian!

Real Wedding: Jess + Nick

Marine biologists Jess and Nick’s love for water, the environment and Hawaii created the perfect wedding celebration setting. The self-described science geeks have done several science studies near the Hawaiian coastline, so they envisioned a wedding day that encompassed as much of the island as possible. It certainly shows! From the themed invitations and programs (created by eco designer Bella Figura) to pineapple-accented bouquets and centerpieces to the authentic hula dancers, Jess and Nick’s Florida celebration was so Hawaiian, their guests had no choice but to hang loose. The couple even provided eco-friendly mosquito repellant to keep everyone bite free!

Beautiful!

Ho’omaika’i ‘ana Jess and Nick, and many Eco-Beautiful wedding wishes to you!

Real Wedding: Diana + John

We’re wrapping up Eco Love week at the beach with Diana and John! Their Florida Keys affair was hand designed by the bride herself (she even designed her gown!), and was complete with yummy paella and a reduced carbon footprint (the guests stayed in cabins on the same property as the reception venue).

What a lovely day for a lovely couple! Many Eco-Beautiful Wedding wishes to Diana and John!

A Warm Wedding in the Florida Keys

After a day of mild spring-ish weather this week, it’s frigid once again on the east coast. So, we’re warming up with this cute Florida Keys wedding featured in our Winter/Spring 2013 issue! Jenna and Christian celebrated marital bliss on a local island, and with a very pretty color palette, loved ones and an appearance from a four-legged special guest, their day was full of fun and style.

The Eco-Beautiful details are all featured in the new issue, starting on page 90!
