Remember our post a couple of weeks back about Bachelor Parties? Well, we didn’t want to leave the ladies out, so here are some ideas for the ladies who don’t want to spend all day getting their nails done.
Trend #1 | Fresh Ingredient Cocktails
Turn your bartender into a botanist with herb-infused cocktails. Pair gin with cucumbers, tequila with sage, fresh fruit with mint julep, and basil leaves in everything. Perfect for a woodland wedding?
What better way to announce our new address than to host an open house party! Our new address was not the only milestone we’ve reached recently. For the first time, we used Greenvelope to send our invitations and collect RSVPs. Until this point we’ve used Greenvelope for personal events like birthdays and dinner parties, but we’ve never had the opportunity as a business. We had a great response and nearly everyone showed up!
Every year WeddingWire awards the top five percent of the WeddingWire local vendor community with the Couples’ Choice Award. Winners are determined by quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism within the wedding industry and reviews from past customers.
Greenvelope is honored to have been selected as one of WeddingWire’s 2014 winners. We could not have accomplished this without the support of our amazing customers. read more…
Not all men are alike; not all bachelor parties should be either.
Here are some party ideas for all kinds of dudes.
Our interns are an important part of the Greenvelope family. Today we are highlighting two of our interns:
Congratulations on the success of your under-sink composting ventures! Your color-coded recycling bins mark you as a real 21st century environmentalist. But what else could you be doing? read more…
First of all, we love alliteration. Second of all, we love to help customers plan big corporate gatherings and weddings, but we really like for folks to use our services to plan smaller gatherings as well. So today, we’re rounding up party themes that we dig. read more…
This month, we’re partnering with the fabulous ladies of the Frosted Petticoat! This family has been making chocolate together for years, and since they launched their brand in 2011, they have been featured in Refinery 29, The Perfect Palette, Style Me Pretty, and others.
We work in the party business. Sometimes party culture isn’t very green-friendly (think Solo cups at house parties–eek!).
Lucky for us, Snoqualmie Vineyards, located just 2.5 hours outside of Seattle, takes sustainability really seriously. Here at Greenvelope, we’re always looking to support local businesses, especially ones that consider the Earth and our beautiful state.
Snoqualmie has been green since way before it was cool (since 1983!). They use recycled bottles, earth-friendly corks, a gray-water recycling system, and agricultural practices that protect native plants. Even their grapes are certified organic!
“Great wines are about understanding when to relinquish control to Mother Nature; we can do little to improve her bounty. I think trying to let the fruit come through in the wine without doing extra magic or processing is the best way to showcase each varietal.”
Joy Andersen, Winemaker
So next time you Seattleites are looking for local drinks for a party, consider Snoqualmie’s many wine varietals. Don’t fret, non-Seattleites! You can buy their wines online.
