How to have a Green Wedding !

Have Your Cake And feel good about it too! Again, ask about substituting organic ingredients like sugar, flour, butter, and eggs. Or, look for a baker who specializes in organic cakes. Some will even prepare a vegan cake (meaning it doesn't contain any animal products or processed sugars)
Make an Organic Menu Though many are now specializing in organic foods, any caterer can be organic. Buying organic ensures that you, your guests, and the workers who harvested your food won't be exposed to pesticides.Free-range, organically raised beef and chicken aren't just delicious -- choosing meats raised with sustainable farming practices is better for the animals, the environment, and the farmers. If you're serving seafood, avoid fish that are commercially raised or high in mercury. Opt for a white fish like tilapia, or choose wild salmon.read more

Have the organic, vegetarian, and natural movements morphed into the green movement? Sounds like a bunch of old ex hippies trying to feel a little less guilty about their wasteful lifestyles.

It's not new. Organic foods feature no chemicals, which is obviously good for the environment. Also, massive animals farms are enormous producers of greenhouse gases, so not contributing to them is also obviously good for the environment.

It's all good. I should have taken it as positive suggestions rather than being so cynical about it.
