Go Green :: Eco-Chic Fashion

“Something old, something new, something borrowed something blue.” Get creative with recycling. Utilize family gems for wedding rings, recycle vintage wedding gowns, etc. Does Grandma have an old blue hankie to tuck inside your dress? Can you borrow Auntie’s wedding purse? These precious family heirlooms become all the more valuable when passed down from generation to generation.  Arrange a family meeting (yours and your love’s family) to discuss what is available. You may very well be surprised by both the excitement this can generate among various family members and the resulting items, not to mention a greater level of closeness among the families.  Plus, you’ve included the family elders in the planning process.

This stunning dress was handmade by Jewel Couture. 100% all natural silk (expect for buttons & zipper…come on) Beautiful, isn’t it? Rhonda Lewis Photography

With all that Life has to offer,

Cicely
