...close to impossible, but I will do it, dammit! I was disheartened looking online for websites to help with this sort of thing, and came up with nada. So I'm checking each thing, one at a time. I found a nice caterer, and I'm going to have to pay extra to use porcelain plates for the food, and real glasses for the bar, instead of plastic. I found a quaint little shop to make my invitations, made from banana leaves and washi paper. Also more expensive, of course. I'm having my whole wedding outside, and in the same place, to limit traveling. I'll be using bee's wax candles and cloth napkins. Real flowers, no fake ones. And since the scenery is so beautiful, no need to dress it up with useless decorations that will just end up in the garbage. One of the only things that won't be very ecologically friendly will be my dress. Cause I'm thinking hemp-cotton, not too elegant. Speaking of my dress, I have to find a designer. One who's really good, but won't charge me an arm and a leg. Cause I know it's a once in a lifetime thing, but I still refuse to put 4 digits into a dress I'm going to wear once. So if anyone has any other ideas how how to make my wedding nice and green, I'm all ears.
