What is the Sustainable Wedding Alliance?

Experience of working with couples, like you, directly means that we know that you wish you had a greater choice when it comes to sustainable (and ethical) suppliers. As responsible business owners, the members of the Sustainable Wedding Alliance are focussed on making both their businesses and the events and weddings they produce more sustainable.

Looking for sustainable suppliers?

If you’re looking for ethical, sustainable wedding suppliers then you’ve come to the right place!

All our members are committed to making your wedding as environmentally friend as it can be. They all adhere to our strict code of conduct and are assessed annually on their sustainable practices.

We’re working on a beautiful members directory that we hope will be ready very soon. In the meantime if you’re looking for a sustainable supplier, please feel free to contact us or check out our partner directory, Green Union.

How important is sustainability to you and your wedding?

In May 2021 we ran a sustainability survey asking couples, like you, how important sustainability is. We’ll be announcing the results here in early July.

What is a sustainable wedding dress? What makes it sustainable?

Sustainable fashion is about slowing down the process, looking at all the elements that go into making a garment, and considering the environmental and social impact of the end product. But where do you start when looking for a sustainable wedding dress?

Is it just a dress?

Kate Atkinson, Founder of Bridal Reloved and Sustainable Wedding Alliance Ambassador tell us how buying a wedding dress can be sustainable.

“Organising a wedding is hard enough, I don’t want to feel bad about creating unnecessary waste or harming the environment! I want my wedding to be a positive experience for everyone so I’m doing my best to make it sustainable as possible.” Abena Poku-Awuah
