OurWorld 2.0: Will you eco-marry me?
24 March, 2009
Weddings are one of the few occasions in our lives when family and friends all gather in the same place. With the spotlight on the bride and groom, the event is an ideal chance for a couple to showcase their style and beliefs to a captive audience.
For the ecologically-minded, this means celebrating with an "eco-wedding" rather than a conventional one.
Tokyo couple Shigeru Komori and Tomoko Hoshino embraced the opportunity to create a beautiful wedding day without leaving behind a huge environmental footprint. Both are passionate about the environment, so applying their shared eco-philosophy to their wedding was a true reflection of who they are and what is important to them.
In essence, our wedding celebrations can be low carbon-emitting, socially-responsible, energy efficient and embrace the four Rs (reuse, reduce, recycle, repair). Even with all these commitments, the event can still live up to the expectations of being one of the most memorable days of your life!
