Weddings Going Green

This trend is not suprising. Seems like “green” and “limits to growth” is a very lucrative industry.

Jessica Stasinos of Peabody has been planning weddings for five years. Her work involves spending an average of 100 hours with brides and grooms making sure all their nuptial needs are met.

This summer, she’s facing a new challenge. Stasinos, who runs the Peabody event coordinator The Social Butterfly, is planning a vegan wedding. Every last detail of this wedding must be all-natural.

“No animal products can be used, which I think is kind of neat,” she says. “It’s been interesting. It’s kind of tough to find vegan (products).”

Couples are taking their environmental concerns to the altar by planning “green” and vegan weddings. They choose Earth-friendly options for some or all aspects of their ceremony, reception and even the honeymoon. It’s a trend that started in California, says Stasinos, and has moved east.
