Hilton Naples Awarded TripAdvisor Green Leaders™ Platinum Status



Hilton Naples Earns Platinum Level in the Trip Advisor Green Leaders Program

Our Hilton Naples team proudly announces we qualified for the Platinum Level Green Leader status into the new TripAdvisor^® GreenLeaders™ program, which helps travelers plan greener trips by identifying environmentally-friendly accommodations across the U.S.

 

TripAdvisor GreenLeaders have met a set of environmental standards developed for TripAdvisor by a leading environmental consulting firm, with input from expert partners. The more green practices a hotel has in place, the higher its GreenLeader level, which is shown on the property’s listing on the TripAdvisor site.  Hilton Naples earned the top distinction of Platnimum Level for it's sustainability practices.

 

“TripAdvisor GreenLeaders are leading the hospitality industry in making efforts to improve their environmental footprint,” said Jenny Rushmore, director of responsible travel at TripAdvisor. “We greatly applaud these accommodations and are pleased to share their eco-friendly practices with our online audience of more than 200 million travelers.”

 

The TripAdvisor GreenLeaders program was developed in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR^® program, the U.S. Green Building Council, and the United Nations Environment Programme.

 

Hilton Naples Hotel is part of The Florida Department of Environmental Protection Green Lodging Program and the Hilton Worldwide Lightstay Conservation program.

 

The Hilton Naples Hotel became the first hotel in Naples to become a Florida Green Lodging Hotel in November of 2007. After successfully implementing their initial green initiatives and sustaining them for more than one year, they became “Two Palm” certified in May 2009.  In order to remain a green lodging certified property, new and innovative plans must be put into place each year to further conservation efforts.

Which Style Wedding Veil Will You Be Wearing?

The Wedding Veil

1. Consider your Dress: Make sure it compliments your dress and does not overwhelm it! You also want to consider what the focal point of your dress is and in doing so choose a veil that stops just above your gorgeous bustle or one that is longer but a more sheer material to still see all of your embellishments.
2. Keep in Mind Your Hairstyle:  Will your hair be in an up-do, half up and half down or will you have flowing curls? You will need to take into consideration your hairstyle and how heavy the veil will be to ensure your hair is still perfect when you remove it. Also the placement of where you will put the veil clip will affect the overall length of the veil by 2-4 inches - which can make a significant difference where it falls on you.
3. Know Your Ceremony Location: If you are getting married indoors or in a church a cathedral length veil will look stunning and it will not blow around on you. If you are holding a beach wedding in Naples you may opt for a smaller veil like a birdcage due to wind. You should also consider the time of year and weather at your location.

For the answer to all your questions about holding your wedding or wedding reception at the Hilton Naples Hotel, please contact our Wedding Planner, Electa Saker or call her at 239-659-3108.
