Green / Organic Themed Weddings

Ok so it's still a fairly new concept, but it's an interesting one!
This year, people have really started to experiment with going green on their big day. To break it down; recycle, reuse and reduce!!

You can go the full hog and order in recycling containers or simply make the effort to take the bottles down to the bottle bank! If it all sounds a little daunting then get advise from a wedding planner who knows what they are doing and you can work in the "green" element to this.

Some ideas to get you started could include:
Traditional craft and fair trade products
Recycling all the champagne and wine bottles
Organising transport for guests to help fuel consumption
Use local produce and suppliers
Natural materials for wedding dress / groom and bridesmaids

There are so many ways to make a difference if you want to and it really can have a positive spin on your day. Also, check out Great Green Wedding's website and blog for advice and suppliers!

Don't forget we can also tailor make green hen do's and weekends
Go on, get creative and go green!
