Liz Johnston, eco-friendly expert, on sending "green" invitations:

The amount of paper used for invitations each year could cover the entire island of Manhattan. Forgo the expensive, un-recyclable paper in favor of beautiful recycled or tree-free paper. These papers are beautiful as well as unique and will let your guests know that they are in for a truly special experience at your wedding. Continue this thinking as you look at place cards, menus, programs, reception cards, etc. Prices range from super affordable to high end. Check out tinyprints.com, etsy.com, invitesite.com and custompaper.com for environmentally-conscious options.
