Latest wedding trend puts environment first

Most women who entertain the idea of marriage have visualized their wedding day at some point. It probably included flowers, bridesmaids, cake and perhaps champagne. But, how many brides take the time to factor the environment into their big day?

In fact, the trend of environmentally friendly weddings has recently led to the blossoming of an entirely new theory - something old, something new, something borrowed, something green.

It's no surprise that with the threat of global warming and environmental disaster looming on the horizon, a market would emerge for each aspect of life to cater to these recent developments. Marriage is no exception. Planners and companies have brainstormed to produce “green” alternatives to regular wedding routines.
