These days, being eco-friendly is on the minds of more couples. Sure, you want to have the wedding of your dreams, but you also want to leave a lighter footprint on the planet. No worries \u2013 there are many easy ways to pull it off, and Birkat Elyon<\/a>, home of dazzling (and eco-friendly) cubic zirconia engagement and wedding rings<\/a>, has the how-to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, consider choosing a beautiful CZ ring<\/a> over a real diamond. Our selection is indistinguishable from \u201cthe real thing\u201d and is far more environmentally sensitive than diamonds. An added bonus? They\u2019re way more affordable, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, when it comes to invitations, there are more companies\noffering options like biodegradable seed paper which decomposes, leaving\nflowers in its wake. Speaking of which, tossing confetti as you exit the\nceremony is a waste; opt for handfuls of lavender or rose petals instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For your venue, check out the Green Building Information Gateway<\/a>. This will direct you to event spaces that meet energy and sustainability standards. Another option is to choose an outdoor space like a vineyard, beach, even a national park (the fees will help with their own conservation efforts).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you and your fianc\u00e9 already have more than you need,\nespecially in the way of household goods, consider a charity registry. Rather\nthan more \u201cstuff,\u201d your guests can donate to causes that are meaningful to you\n\u2013 anything from animals to the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food is obviously a big part of any ceremony. Search out caterers that rely on local, seasonal foods, including sources for seafood, poultry, and beef. The closer to home, the smaller the carbon footprint instead of having to truck it in from long distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same goes for flowers. Look for florists who get their\nblooms nearby, either from local farms or by growing them themselves. There are\nsome that will even compost your floral arrangements after the wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See? Treating Mother Earth as a special guest at your\nwedding is getting easier all the time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
