I’m really pleased to announce that the UK’s very first Eco Chic Wedding & Home Show will take place on Sunday 8th March 2009 from 11-4 in Birmingham.  I have joined forces with fellow green girl Katie from Ethical Weddings and Michelle from Just The Thing to organise this event and we are really excited about the prospect.

Set amid the breathtaking splendour of the Birmingham Botanical Gardens in leafy Edgbaston, this exclusive wedding and home event will bring together the very best the UK has to offer in green & ethical weddings and living.

Everything an environmentally conscious couple could wish for will be laid out in one stunning location. Dresses, occasionwear, accessories, photography, flowers, gifts, honeymoon destinations, venues, cakes and much much more. It will be the perfect opportunity to see, touch, taste and try before you buy all the essentials for your Big Day. On display will also be eco friendly homewares, linens and the ultimate in eco chic interiors.

We thought it would be a good idea to bring together the wedding and home elements to show that going green isn’t just about one day. Whether couples are living together already or setting up home for the first time most see their wedding as marking a new beginning with the chance to make some new changes to their home and lifestyle.

We would love to invite everyone to the show so whether you are getting married this year or next or would like to make your home greener please visit the show website for more details. If you are keen to attend more green and eco events in 2009 then see our green event listings page.
