Meh. This is very basic, most stuff I'd already considered. It gave me maybe two resources that were helpful so I'll give it 3 stars, but the last quarter is just how to live a green life in general and most sections are just "recycle, reduce, reuse". Don't know what I expected but I guess having a DIY/affordable wedding incorporates most green stuff anyway.
Some helpful tips, although quite repetitive. There are many references to online resources, propounding to provide lists of eco-friendly vendors. However, I found few of these online resources actually provided the information for which they are cited.
I did not enjoy the tone of the book. It came off as preachy and righteous at times, making this less than enjoyable to read. I began very excited to delve into planning this exciting time, but had to drag myself through the end. It was not fun to read.
A lot of the same concepts as other green books, but with a wedding slant. Covers all of the basic elements (food, decorations, jewelry, location, transportation, flowers, invitations, etc.)
Was hoping for pictures and more crafty decor ideas, but for anyone looking to plan a wedding with an eco-friendly slant, this would be a good starter book.
this is helpful every step of the way, from buying an ethical ring to choosing a caterer for the reception, lots of practical tips and helpful websites
