More on eco-friendly wedding dresses from the girls at Engaging Affairs!

Another favorite eco-chic designer is Deborah Lindquist, who mixes “reincarnated” and new Earth-friendly fabrics to create lushly beautiful gowns that are unabashedly romantic, more old Hollywood siren than sixties flower child…

We’re also big fans of Style Me Pretty favorite Olivia Luca, whose website allows you to design custom bridal gowns and bridesmaid dresses from scratch.

Of course, the greenest fashion choice for your wedding is to recycle a dress that’s been worn before. Consider having a seamstress update your mother’s gown, or check out everything from eBay to online vintage boutiques like The Frock. There’s something so romantic about wearing a dress with a history of its own!

But in case you’re not ready for your bridal gown to be that “something old,” it’s good to know that there are more and more designers out there making sure that your new dress can be “something green!”

    I also like the idea of things that have a history of their own - a previous life. My dress isn't vintage but my beautiful wedding band is.

  4. I am LOVING that long dress on the right -- they are both pretty, but the details on the long one are simply stunning!

  5. The dress on the right is MY wedding dress! I'm actually doing a work-trade with Deborah to cut the cost as one of my broke-ass endeavors. I can't believe its actually going to be mine :)
