Can you have an ethical wedding?

I went to a wedding on the weekend, a very nice wedding with the bride in a white dress with flowers, a buffet and a lovely reception but I could help but think ‘is this ethical?’ Can you have a wedding where the impact on the environment isn’t huge and small children in less developed countries weren’t paid a pittance to make the dresses? Well, I found the answer. Ethical weddings is a website that lists suppliers of various wedding essential which are all organic, fair-trade or environmentally sustainable or ethical in some way. It’s nice to think that even on a day famed for being extravagant can actually care too.
