Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending one of the most unintentionally (as far as I know) green weddings I’ve seen - and I did it dressed as Bjork!
Let me explain…
The couple in question are very laid back, no fuss kind of people. So for a start there were no fancy invites; our summons [...]

You’ve got your head screwed on properly (always a good thing I think), you’re down-to-earth, no nonsense… this wedding m’larkey is not going to freak you out.  You will not - repeat NOT - become the next bridezilla.
After all, you’re here at Ethical Weddings, you’re thinking about the impact your wedding will have on the [...]

My dad came to see me the other week to help with my accounts (interpret: do them for me because I’m lazy) and while he was here I asked if he wanted to see The Venue.
Given the choice of that or a million receipts for 80p which all need logging and filing somewhere - anywhere! [...]

I thought I’d get a bit of debate going today - although how much of a debate I’m going to get on this issue from Ethical Weddings readers I’m not sure!

An ethical bride-to-be on a budget and in a hurry emailed us to ask for our thoughts on the etiquette of sending email wedding invites. [...]

The Proposal was a fairly lack-lustre affair. We had both been ill with a vicious flu-style bug, and off work for about two weeks. I was beginning to think I would never be well again, and if Toby whinged about feeling crap one more time I was going to kill him with my snot.

Not only that but we’ve some [...]

Enough time has passed that I can now talk about wedding venues without that dull, throbbing ache appearing somewhere around my temples. Having only recently moved back to the UK after an 8 year hiatus in Australia, and living many miles from my family home, there was no beautiful building I was just dying to [...]

I’ve had a long absence from this blog… while I enjoyed my wedding and my month long honeymoon!
 
Everything was a huge success and Phil and I enjoyed every minute of our day. So here’s a little list of the best and the worst of our green successes and failures, for anyone who is planning to [...]

We are delighted to announce that the winners of our Sally Steele Weddings’ DIY wedding planning DVD competition from our March Ethical Weddings newsletter are Ruthe & Jonathan who are getting married in Galway, Ireland next May 2009.
As they’ll be wedding planning from a distance (living in England but marrying in Ireland), the DVD should come in [...]

We’ve had a rather interesting press request from The Press Association about weddings on an extreme budget…
I’m intrigued to know if any of you fit the bill - cos I’ll then want to pick your brains to find out how you did it!
They’re looking for women aged between 20 to 50 who celebrated their big [...]
