Centerpieces can be very expensive and it is a shame to have to throw them out after a wedding. Instead of using flowers that just sits there and wilts, consider edible centerpieces for your wedding reception instead.
An edible centerpiece is a perfect choice for a couple that is on a tight budget. It will not only give an attractive appeal to your reception, but also make your tables look festive and provide a desert to your guests at the same time.

Let’s just be real, brides are nervous about what green weddings are all about. Should you really have to give up your wedding you have been planning in your head for years? Nope.
At AATR, I’m the coordinator you go to if you would like to green-up your wedding. But I’m also a coordinator for brides that have big beautiful weddings sans the green part. Which means I’ve found the balance. I started a bit of a “campaign” for our green wedding option that gives couples the chance to be As Green as You Want to Be… I want the shade of green to be up to you and only you, no pressure from your family, society or me! This is a great cause for the world and if you want to make a little difference on your big day, I say go for it!
To get you started, some of my favorite sustainable-wedding websites… More to come!
For Favors.
