New Eco Friendly Product

Ecofetti  (found on the Brides' Village at http://www.bridesvillage.com/ecofetti.html) is a new ecologically friendly way to shower the bridal couple with confetti in an array of colors that is biodegradable. If your wedding is at a site that doesn't allow normal confetti, this water-soluble product can either be removed by using a hose over the area or by letting nature absorb it. You can combine any of the eight colors for fabulous photo ops that will please the most environmentally conscious bride.
