The first wedding item every bride looks for right after getting engaged is her beautiful wedding gown. There are two ways you can plan to go eco-friendly with your dress. One is to buy an all natural, hand-made gown like this hemp and silk dress from Threadhead. The second option is to donate your wedding gown to Brides Against Breast Cancer instead of trashing it for a photo shoot or keeping it in the back of your closet.
