By Nature’s Organic and Ethical Wedding List is turning white weddings green. From recycled and fair trade diningware to organic bed and bath linens each product is carefully screened for its eco and social credentials. By Nature will also match 10% of the total amount spent on each wedding list and give this money to the couple’s chosen charity.
Liz Hurley’s wedding was a big affair. So big it was estimated that its carbon emission reached a staggering 200,000kg*. To put it in perspective, it would take more than 10 years for the average British couple to contribute to the same amount. While most weddings are not organised on such scale, they still end up costing a lot to the environment as they generate waste, food miles, energy consumption and air miles. When it comes to gifts, registering a wedding list is a great way to avoid getting things you do not need. And why not let your guests choose eco-friendly gifts that will lighten your environmental impact.
Launching this month By Nature’s Organic and Ethical Wedding List Service offers a great choice of stylish and contemporary products. By Nature also promises to provide you with a fully customised stress free experience:
- Charity Donation: By Nature will match 10% of the total amount bought on each wedding list and give this money to the couple’s chosen charity.
- A stress free experience: Register 1 to 6 months before the event. The list can be set up online or by phone. It can be amended at anytime and is constantly updated to avoid duplication.
- Free Delivery anywhere in the UK. International deliveries are also available at an additional cost
- Each list is unique: Add your own personal message as well as a picture of your choice. By Nature provide cards to add to wedding invitations so that guests have the list details. There is no charge for this service.
Thanks to its flower delivery service, By Nature is also able to provide couples with a choice of organic, fair-trade or UK grown floral arrangements.
