obey the one bag rule.

Regardless of whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat, spend some time with the Green party the next time you plan an event. Events can suck lots of resources, from energy to water and typically generate a whole lotta trash. For your next event, try keeping the trash to one bag and see how fun it is to try! Finger foods, real linens and decorations made from found or reusable objects will help you on your mission to keep your party green and sexy. For more tips on greening your next event, check out Something Green,one of our new favorite blogs. You can also take inspiration from our friends John and Allyson, whose eco-chic wedding was featured as February’s Spotlight of the Month.
