How about spending half of your trip in relaxing hotels and half making social connections and eco-friendly choices?"
Recently, Sewing for the Soil has been recognized as a social enterprise, and on that account, she will increase free eco-weddings for low income couples.
She also seeks to make small changes throughout the country with eco-friendly clothes. "My next project is to change hospital patient
fashionable bridal sandals. These clothes worn by patients should be healthy, but the reality is that they are just another mass-produced good made from fluorescent materials."
"I'd like to appeal again to people to choose eco-friendly weddings and events if possible, thus contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions and global warming," she said.

The 340,000 weddings held in Korea every year waste an average of 1,000 flowers, 1,000 liters of food and lead to up to 1,500 guests pumping out exhaust fumes from their
wedding parties.
However, she is not pessimistic. Government policies and the Kyoto protocol obligations to control CO2 emission from 2012 will make the fledgling Korean eco-market a promising sector for Sewing for the Soil.
THE blushing bride arrived not in a new car from her father's showroom but on foot when Joanna Hughes married recruitment consultant Tony Millard in an open-air ceremony at Yallingup yesterday.
