What inspired you to have an ethical wedding?
We always try to think carefully about the impact of our buying decisions. Now we are planning a day of pure indulgence so we are all the more determined to make the right choices.
What has been the most difficult bit so far?
Finding and choosing a venue. I think I was just one webclick away from insanity.
What has been the most fun bit?
Deciding on the entertainment and on the honeymoon. I can’t give you any of the details yet… but we are SO excited!!
What are your 5 top tips for brides and grooms planning an ethical wedding?
- Design an occasion that represents the life you want together
- Try to filter out advertising pressure and other people’s expectations
- Go for lots of ‘somethings old’ and ‘somethings borrowed’!
- Consider having two events if it would minimise total travel
- Choose foods which are usually ethically produced, unless you have full details of your supplier
