We all seem to be on ethical wedding spree this week which is fab for the environment. Let's take a little look at what is going on...
Our sister-blog-with-a-conscience Hippyshopper gave us some gorgeous eco confetti from The Real Flower Confetti Company. We blogged on conflict free diamonds, good gift lists plus bubble and wildflower confetti. Shoewawa took a look at vegan shoes from Beyond Skin (ok, not strictly wedding but we do love shoes).

Over at City Hippy they tell us about their new site Ethical Weddings for UK based brides. We'll take another look at that when it launches.
