If 10,000 NY Biters buy an organically grown floral centerpiece instead of a regular one, we'll avert 349 lb of pesticides from crashing the party.

The most expensive bottle of bubbly is Louis Roederer Cristal 1990, which sold at auction for nearly $15,000...and no, it's not organic.

Life of the Party

The Bite

What's more fun than playing bartender? Lots - including letting someone else do all the work. Get DvGreen party planning to take the effort out of your party picture, whether you're on for a baby shower, office shindig, or a full-blown wedding. It'll cater with locally sourced and/or organic food and wines; decorate with locally grown flowers in eco-friendly containers (such as bamboo) and paraffin-free candles (no finite oil resources used up here); and haul in reusable table linens and napkins, green favors and gifts - it even has tree-free invites if you need 'em. DG also donates or composts leftover food, and buys CO2 offsets to cover energy use, so the only thing for you to plan is how to finish off that last case of champagne.
