Deperatley Seeking Couple for Free Green Wedding
Planning to tie the knot? GreenFest Philly is offering one lucky couple an
extraordinary green wedding-FREE- for up to 60 guests.
The ceremony / reception will be held at Zagar's magic MOSAIC GARDEN on
South Street in downtown Philadelphia--the city's most popular public art
installation. Guests will enjoy fabulous food catered by ChriStevens, the
renowned
Mainline caterer who is now on 9th and South streets, too, and recently opened
a whole special green services line. Music, photography, flowers, gifts,
local transportation, and more will be provided as well. The couple will
receive special green gifts such as 10 ecologically responsible
house-cleanings by
Organic Home LLC, five gal. of zero VOC house paint from Environmental Home
Store, a wedding cake from Whole Foods (if they want vegan) or Night Kitchen
(if organic is the rule), a world culture gift from Eyes Gallery...and
Cutter's Mill Natural Pet Foods for Fido. Carolyn Verdi, esteemed wedding
planner
(her real name!) will help finesse the details and assure that the event
matches the couple's personal style. Photography, music, honeymooon and more
are in the works...
The ceremony will be private, not open to the public, to be held during
GreenFest Philly, Sun., Sept. 9, 11am - 6 pm. (Actually, we had a couple
on
board, but they got cold feet!)
