Going "Green" for April

One of the biggest trends in weddings right now is green weddings. No, not the color--the environment. As the country becomes more and more environmentally conscious, brides and wedding planners are following suit.

For the entire month of April, Perfect Memories is going "green" too. The green text and color will appear throughout the blog as a reminder to "think green." Then, in addition to regular entries, we'll be featuring some special content:

• Green Wedding Tips: Tune in Mondays and Fridays for quick and easy ideas on making your wedding more environmentally friendly.
• Green Living Tips: On Wednesdays, I'll feature an idea for being more eco-conscious in your every day life.
• Eco-themed Polls: Starting with this week's poll, you'll be able to cast your vote on green questions.
• Special Guest Blogs: Look for entries from environmental experts and enthusiasts.

To find all of the green wedding content on the blog, just click the green weddings label.
