We just wanted to give a warm welcome to the newest member of the Ethical Weddings team, Polly Ellen Fewings born Saturday 21st November!

Amanda and I were thrilled with the response to our request for green wedding suppliers [...]

We had a general theme for the wedding called “sweet peas”.  I did at first intend to have [...]

The girls at the Great Big Green Wedding Fayre asked me for a few thoughts on how ethical and green weddings had grown (or not) since we started Ethical Weddings some years ago.
