Ethical diamonds and sapphires are spectacular and let me tell you Brilliant Earth is a beautiful blessing for the green girl wearing white. They offer certified conflict free diamonds and sapphires crafted with love, fair labor practices, and eco-friendly ethics. 5% of all their profits donated go to help local African communities harmed by the diamond industry.
It’s that time of year again: wedding season! Here are a few companies helping brides say eco-chic on their big day.
Here are a few tips for going green while wearing white:
The Rings: Make sure you choose conflict free diamonds and recycled gold bands if you aren’t inheriting a family ring. C5 Company, Todd Reed and Brilliant Earth are excellent designers that use recycled gold and raw diamonds thatare responsibly sourced.
The Dress: Check out ANGeLRox, Natural Bridals or Deborah Lindquist for gorgeous bridal collections that are made with organic and eco-friendly fabrics, such as hemp and silk. Heirloom dresses and vintage are also excellent choices and can be a really nice touch for your special day.
