Eco-Friendly Bridal Gowns!
In honor of this weekend’s Bridal Market in New York, and since we never, ever get tired of wedding gowns, we couldn’t resist sharing some of our favorite eco-marvelous bridal dresses from designers we can’t wait to see!
When choosing your eco-friendly bridal gown, remember that the green is not in the fabric alone. Think local! Wedding gowns manufactured in the States and Canada have less distance to travel. If you’re lucky enough to live near a bridal designer whose style you love, stop by and have a look!
Between these gowns and what you find in your neighborhood, you’re sure to find a wedding gown that is fabulously green.

Heya -
Just wanted to mention that we’ve been creating eco-friendly bridal gowns and wedding attire since 2007. Our studios were located in the UK until last year and now we’re back home in the US.
All of our gowns are created in the USA of only 100% eco-friendly materials: certified organic cottons, hemp, silk and bamboo. Even our thread is certified organic cotton!

We’d love to hear from eco-brides out there!
I agree, green wedding gown is not just about the fabric alone but on the aspect of being able to select a dress that can help in sustaining what’s left of mother earth. Cheers to eco-weddings!
Wow these are some really nice looking dresses. I love the traditional lace look.
