We got so much great information about eco-friendly weddings that we decided to push Part 2 of the "Here Comes the Eco Bride" series back a week. This week, we'll be talking about the basics of recycling, including what to do if your county doesn't have a recycling program, where you can send some of the items you never knew you could recycle, and what "upcycling" really means.
