I’m excited to tell you that The Natural Wedding Company will be exhibiting at the North West’s first green wedding fayre!  Being based in the North West I’m delighted to be supporting the event and am looking forward to meeting ‘green’ brides- and grooms-to-be . 

The Great Big Green Wedding Fayre is taking place on the weekend of the 5th and 6th September, and is being held at Crosby Hall in Little Crosby on the outskirts of Liverpool.  The fayre is hosted by the lovely Amanda and Jemma of GreenLeaf Press, a newly launched eco conscious stationery business.

One of our recent newcomers to The Natural Wedding Company directory, is the Pines Calyx, a romantic green wedding venue in Kent.  I received an email from the lovely Louise who asked me if I could share some news about their venue and some of the great new additions to their website.

The Pines Calyx is a unique and inspirational venue, set it 6 acres of organically managed gardens.  Their venue is licensed for both wedding ceremonies and receptions.  The beautiful gardens and lake are the perfect setting for your wedding photographs – complete with stunning sea views!

Their website now includes details such as venue capacities, suggestions on what to do in the area for the wedding party, how to make your wedding a weekend celebration, recommendations for greening your wedding, and a photo gallery of weddings that have been held at their beautiful venue.

Romantic venue for a family wedding in the Loire Valley

If you’re considering having your wedding abroad with a small group of family and friends, look no further.  Our friends at Le Chant D’Oiseau – family run gites and camping in an idyllic spot in the Loire Valley, France – are looking to offer couples an inclusive wedding package.

Stu and Syb and their family are a talented bunch who among other things could provide a fully qualified French chef to cook your wedding feast!  Stu also is a fantastic photographer who has recently photographed a British wedding held in a beautiful French chateau.

I was delighted to hear from one of our eco wedding directory businesses about their new collection of eco-friendly wedding dresses.  Lori, a third generation dressmaker, is the designer and director of Conscious Elegance who create beautiful eco-friendly wedding dresses and bridal wear.

“All our designs are made to show how fabulous an eco-friendly gown can be” and the 2009 collection doesn’t disappoint, with beautiful hemp/silk gowns that combine style with sustainability.

Conscious Elegance only uses 100% organic cottons and pesticide-free silk, hemp and linen blends to create their wedding dresses.  “We know that our dresses look every bit as good as those conventional dresses made overseas.  Ours are just better for the world.”
