Emory University, the location of our wedding venue the Houston Mill House, have taken their sustainable-food initiatives even further.
One of the reasons we love that we’re having our wedding here is because of Emory’s commitment to the environment. Yay green!
About a year ago I told Brian that I was going to use my own bags for grocery and store shopping. I’m sure he thought it was pretty ridiculous at the time, but he’s always sweet enough to indulge me in my little projects. Since then, we’ve done a lot of little things in and around the house to support the 3 R’s (renew, reuse, recycle). We also support local independent businesses, buying groceries at the farmer’s market, etc.
Because of this, it was important enough to us to incorporate our beliefs into our big day. You may or may not notice the little things we’ve done here and there to be more eco-friendly, and that’s okay! Even the tiniest bit helps. The wasteful things we’ve omitted won’t be missed by anyone. We remind each other every day that is about our marriage, not just our wedding.
