In Roseville, CA, The Wedding Planning Institute has just announced their latest online course for wedding industry professionals: The Green Wedding Planning Certification. This 4-week online instructional course is going to teach wedding professionals how to incorporate environmentally-friendly methods, strategies and techniques in a way which reduces overall wedding costs whilst simultaneously reducing the harmful environmental footprint left by a wedding.

With over 2 million weddings occurring in the United States each year with an average of 150 guests, the environmental impact of moving, entertaining, wining and dining over 300,000,000 people produces an extraordinary amount of pollution and waste. Today’s brides and grooms are becoming more aware of this startling figure and are actively seeking out wedding planners and professionals who offer ‘green’ options.

The Green Wedding Planning course is being taught by Kate Harrison, founder of the Green Bride Guide. For $375, students will be able to interact directly with Ms. Harrison and fellow students via an easy-to-use online instructional platform, which allows students to work at their own pace. The class begins on November 9th and you may enroll here: http://www.weddingplanninginstitute.com/green_wedding_planning.html
