After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a six-course gourmet meal, prepared by Design Cuisine.  Dancing and conversation followed as everyone enjoyed the amazing music performed by Aria Hendricks and her band.

I especially love how clear it is that Jennifer and Randy pored over the details of their event and used their unique skill set (her BA in Film at Bard College and an MFA in Film & Television from New York University and his MFA in Film & Television from New York University)  to create a vision for their eclectic, woodsy wedding style which was executed with perfection by their team of wedding professionals.

The mixing and matching of china is fabulous!

In particular, the green elements were extremely important to Jennifer and Randy — guests were transported to and from CBF via shuttle, carbon offsets were purchased for the wedding and guests’ transportation, invitations were letter-pressed (a greener form of printing), all printed materials and packaging utilized recycled paper, there was minimal use of flowers (and use of flowers in season and local) and the food was organic and local wherever possible.

Congrats to Jennifer and Randy!

Dana and David, the VERY lucky winners of this fabulous giveaway, were married on Earth Day, April 22, at the Stephen Decatur House Museum.  Here are a few of the photos from their special day, generously donated by the members of the DC Green Wedding Consortium…

The wedding was captured by a duo of fabulous photographers — Jennifer Domenick of Love Life Images, and Tom Van Veen of Documentary Associates.

How cute is that pedi-cab?  I love it!  During the inauguration madness, I took a pedi-cab from downtown to Georgetown.  Despite the slight chill in the air (the “driver” gave me a sleeping bag to stay warm), I had a very fun time.   I wish we had more pedi-cabs in D.C…  They make for picture-perfect transportation for the bride & groom!

Oh, and I am totally swooning over this wedding cake by Debbie Delardi of Cakes by Design.
