Ethical wedding group in Brighton - Feb 2009
February 2009
We would love to invite you to the third meeting of tawc (the authentic wedding connection).
We all know about the traditional ‘perfect wedding' - the big white dress, the groom in his top hat and tails, the sun shining, everyone smiling, all the frills, no expense spared...
But what if it's not quite working out that way, or if that's not actually what you want? In fact, since getting engaged, have you even had chance to think about what you want, why you are getting married and what it means to you?
Wedding planning can be a chaotic but lonely business - we have our bridesmaids, our best men and our ushers and everyone is giving us their opinions, but rarely are they getting married around the same time as you to know just what you're going through: the expectations, the worries, the excitement and anticipation.
tawc is a chance to sit down with people who are in the same position as you, or who've been there already, an opportunity to swap ideas and advice, both practical and emotional, to clear your head, scream with frustration or squeal with excitement!
It will also be an opportunity to chat about the idea of an ethical or green wedding and whether this is something that might work for you and if so, how to go about it.
- When: February 2009 (DATE & TIME TBC)
- Where: Mama Oshun's - see map
- How much? FREE!
- Contact: Katie - katie@ethicalweddings.com
