This review is from: The Everything Green Wedding Book: Plan an elegant, affordable, earth-friendly wedding (Everything (Weddings)) (Paperback)

Wenona Napolitano did a very good job with this book. It is well researched and full of helpful lists including: edible flowers to use in your decor, pictures you want your photogrpher to take, and simple recipes and instructions for DIY favors.

She also does a great job of providing the "why" of green weddings. The book begins with ten reasons to have a green wedding and includes E Facts, E Alerts, and E Essential environmental tips throughout.

A great addition to your green wedding bookshelf.
