Planning a Green Event - Part 4: The Dress

Who knew that you could opt for Green wedding dress? I hadn't even looked into the options until I met wedding gown designer Adele Weschler. She recently made an appearance at Mon Amie Bridal Salon in Costa Mesa in which she featured her collection of eco-friendly dresses. Here are a some pictures from the fashion show. Adele is the one on the right in black and yellow.

Be sure to check out her website for photos that do much more justice. But all of her gowns are created with very carefully chosen fabrics such as organic hemp, organic silk and vegetable dyed. It was very interesting to listen to her talk about how each gown was inspired by nature and its movement.

So now you know! There are some great choices for Eco Couture wedding dresses so be sure to ask at your bridal salon the next time you go! If you come across some great eco designers that you feel should be showcased, we would love to hear about them! Cheers!
