We’re thrilled to be able to welcome our third blogger bride in as many weeks to give us all their green wedding gossip here on the Ethical Weddings blog. Em & Lachie are getting married in Cumbria this June and are keen to share some of their ethical wedding planning stories with us before the [...]

With the start of a new year we’re delighted to welcome a new bride-to-be to blog with us at Ethical Weddings. Kate is the founder of Ethical Bags and she and her fiancé, Sam, are preparing for a June wedding in Cumbria. Trying to go green for their wedding makes sense to Sam and Kate who are [...]

Wow, where has the time gone?! Only three weeks until we get married and have our first wedding celebration. (Our second, in the UK, will not be until September, though). We are pretty much organised, I guess, though I do still get butterflies in my stomach every time I imagine the party… and all the [...]

As you may have gathered, my betrothed and I are keen on the idea of a unique nuptial celebration… Not least when it comes to our attire. Neither of us is comfortable in a dress or skirt, so it seems daft to wear one on our special day. And we are carefully avoiding anything reminiscent [...]

I have been having trouble finding ethically-made products which fit our needs, here in Australia. In particular, options for ethical clothing are very limited compared to what’s available in the UK.

Hi everyone, this is Rhonda from Our Wedding Plus. I’d like to thank Katie for adding me on as a guest blogger!  For my first post I want to spread the word about how we in the wedding community can support a great cause, helping breast cancer patients and their families.  The Making Memories Foundation [...]

“Why don’t you just find a hall?” a friend asked us. We did hope it would be that simple. Call around a few churches and community groups, and find one with a pleasant enough hall which can fit about 60 guests (current estimate) for our party in Australia. Ah, how wrong we were. We were [...]

Do we have any Italian ethical brides and grooms out there? If you’re reading, we want to hear from you… and to know why you didn’t get in touch sooner! While both the Spanish (see article ‘How green was our wedding?‘ – I’ll translate it when I get a minute!) and French press have been knocking at [...]

It does makes you think, this Civil Partnership malarkey. Is it the same as marriage? What if we don’t get a chance to say “I do” or exchange vows when we register our partnership? Is it still a ‘wedding’? If you compare Civil Partnership with the common idea of a wedding, it’s hard to ignore [...]
