Entering the Green Wedding Giveaway contest

It was through a stroke of luck that we found out about the GWG contest.  Two weeks before the deadline, I was browsing a cute, New England-based wedding website, www.loveandlobster.com, and came across their post on the contest.  Reading about it, I thought “this is us!” and after confirming we were eligible contestants, we got to work.  Being unfamiliar with video editing, we spent pretty much every second of our spare time over the next 12 days, creating the video and writing the essay.  I admit: I have a whole new respect for folks in the entertainment industry - who knew making a video was so much work?!  We hope you enjoy our story, and the green message we endeavor to spread to friends, family, and strangers alike.  You really can reduce your environmental impact, beginning with small steps, every day - give it a try!  Encourage others!

Foi por um golpe de sorte que nos descobrimos o concurso do casamento verde (Green Wedding Giveaway contest). Duas semanas antes do prazo final de entrega do material, eu estava olhando um site de casamentos de New England chamado, www.loveandlobster.com, e descobri o anuncio da competicao. Lendo o anuncio eu pensei “isso e a gente!” e depois de confirmer que eramos elegiveis para a competicao, comecamos a trabalhar. Nao tendo muita familiaridade com edicao de videos, nos passamos cada segundo do nosso tempo livre nos 12 dias seguintes, criando o video e escrevendo a redacao. Eu admito: tenho um novo e complete respeito pelo pessoal que trabalha na industria de entretenimento – quem poderia saber que fazer um video daria tanto trabalho? Esperamos que voces curtam a nossa historia e a mensagem verde que nos tentamos passer para nossos amigos, familia e desconhecidos da mesma forma. Voce pode realmente reduzir seu impacto ambiental comecando com pequenos passos, todos os dias, podem tentar! E vamos incentivar os outros tambem!

  2. It's really heart warming to know that there are a lot of organizations out there really dedicated in making ways to get people go green and it's even better to know that there are more people who want to be a part of a green community.
