Simply Green Wedding Decor
One of the best ways to stay green is to stay simple. Again, being green can be beneficial to your budget and the planet. How great is that?
This is yet another story of a lovely green and sustainable wedding event that took place in Oakland at a nice local Public Parks lodge. Gorgeous and Green provided the flower designs for the event, and the flowers were all locally grown. Some were local organic flowers, which can cost a little extra, but to keep the budget down we used fewer blooms. We also used some vintage milk and green glass vases that I rented to the couple for the event. Here are lovely dinnerplate dahlias in a rented vintage vase which = lovely understated elegance.
The Bride and Groom had a traditional Chuppah at their ceremony, which I dressed up minimally with twigs and blooms.
There were many flower girls, so each got one gerbera daisy to hold, which looked sweet and kept costs to a minimum.
The Bride looked stunning, and her bouquet of locally grown garden roses and bells of ireland matched her nicely. We even used some leftover sage ribbons I had from a previous event, that added to her bouquet.
Thanks Terry McCarthy and Elisheva for sharing your photos!
