It’s time for the 2022 Sustainability Survey – Help us help you

Apr 1, 2022

Before we start the build up to what is set to be one of the biggest wedding seasons ever, we’re keen to understand where both couples and businesses are on their sustainable journey.

Our mission to to make the wedding industry more sustainable, but to do that it’s important that we know where we are first. We first launched the Sustainability Survey in 2021, and had a fantastic response from businesses, but not as many couples as we would have liked. So this year we’re asking for your help, first of all, we’re asking all businesses in the industry to complete the survey, and secondly, to share the couple survey with their couples.

We’ve tried to keep the survey as streamlined as possible, focusing on questions that really help us to tailor the support that we offer.

The business survey will ask you about the various elements of sustainability, and will take up to 10 minutes to complete. I know that it’s an investment in time, but hopefully you see it as just that, an investment in our industry. The more we know, the more we can help! Complete the Business Survey here.

For couples, their survey is keep to around 2 minutes, with just twelve questions.  Please do share with as many couples as you can. You can view the couple survey here.

Both surveys will be open for three weeks, closing on 22nd April.  We will be sharing the results of the surveys at the Sustainable Wedding Summit on 25th & 26th April.
