About this event
We do ‘I do’ Network Event
Rebecca & Tracy are excited to announce an evening discussing sustainability in the wedding industry with Michelle Miles of the Sustainable Wedding Alliance.
In a world that is becoming increasingly aware of the impact we are having on our planet, we all have a duty to make changes not only in our personal lives but in our businesses too. Couples planning their wedding are looking for ethical, environmentally conscious suppliers and wish they had a greater choice. We will talk about what it means to be an ethical, sustainable business, what a sustainable wedding is, how you can encourage couples to make more sustainable choices, and what practical actions you can take to get you started on your sustainable journey.

Membership also includes accreditation, for those businesses who achieve a minimum standard. Michelle is passionate about creating a more sustainable wedding industry, through education, support and accreditation.
