Sustainable wedding rings part of a green ceremony

Article From OneWed.com

Despite the economy, many couples have opted to make a little extra room in their budgets for sustainable products. Using locally-grown flowers or serving sustainable meals are both ways to cut corners from the carbon-footprint of your big day. Now green-minded couples can add sustainable wedding rings their wedding checklist.

A new website launched by Reflective Images, a jewelry manufacturer that focuses on sustainably manufactured or repurposed pieces, is providing brides and grooms with earth-friendly options for wedding rings and engagement rings.

The extent of the company's efforts is impressive – the entire studio, which is in Santa Fe, New Mexico - is run on green energy. The company also purchases carbon off-sets to further reduce the impact of their carbon emissions.

The unique rings offer a contemporary aesthetic, like hammered gold or platinum, as well as responsibly sourced diamonds. They come in a variety of styles and price ranges, from $200 sterling silver wedding bands to diamond and platinum engagement rings.

Of course, brides who prefer antique-style jewelry could find other ways to make their rings more earth-friendly. Shopping around for vintage rings on their own, or using a ring that has been in the family for years are both be ways for savvy brides to save money and resources.

Wedding Tips

1) Who said the money box has to be an actual "BOX"? Get creative and use a bird cage, a treasure chest or a even a favorite handbag that you love.

2) By having a customized gobo you can easily personalize your event and have something beautiful to enjoy throughout the event.


3) For out of town weddings or events, an event website is key. It’s so convenient and keeps all the ‘need to know’ information for the guests organized and keeps guests informed. We highly recommend it to all!

4) Escort card font size should be easy to read and in font size 14+.
