Style Me Pretty - Green Weddings

This is something I truly want to do when my own wedding comes around - having a green wedding! With the recent development of people being more eco-conscious, green wedding ideas are popping everywhere! One awesome post in particular is from Abby Jean of Style Me Pretty. All the ideas are awesome! One thing I really want to do when my own wedding rolls around is making my own dress. I might not be the one to sew it together necessarily, but I would love to! My mom is more skilled at that than I am. One dress I love is this Alvina Valenta design.

One of my favorite parts of her post is the Olivia Luca dresses! The website even allows you to create your own dress. Awesome!

I have so many more green wedding ideas up my sleeve, but I'll post more another time. Especially resources here in San Diego!

Wedding Reads



Yesterday I headed up to LA to visit my best friend because she's getting married and I'm the maid of honor so I was helping her plan. We had a fun day - went to look at locations, dresses, and stationary! We also headed to the bookstore, where I picked up two books:

Eco-Chic Weddings
All about green weddings - of course I had to! I got to skim through it more last night and really liked her ideas and she had a ton of resources and websites. The author, Emily Anderson, also has a blog.


The Bridesmaid Guide
This is my first time being maid of honor, so I wanted to know all the little details about what responsibilities I need to have! So far, I really enjoy this book - it has great ideas, and helps me brainstorm for the bridal shower, which I'm going to have lots of fun planning! :D Time to put some Danny Seo's ideas into action as well as my own! Expect a green party! :D

Which reminds me, I need to hit up the library soon.. too bad I have a huge fine for overdue books right now :(
