Question:

We are having a small wedding at our home (30 people) and my parents insist that we serve soda and seltzer with dinner. I feel guilty buying bottles of soda because there is no recycling in our area and renting a soda machine seems ridiculous. Any suggestions?

Answer:

Question:
Kate,
My mother in law is making all the dresses for the wedding, and I was curious to know if tulle is a sustainable option or if a sustainable alternative to tulle was available.

Thank you for your time,
Alexa W.
