your wedding dress shouldn't cost the earth
The average wedding generates approximately 56 tons of carbon emissions - the same amount of carbon emissions produced by six homes over the course of an entire year.
Buying a sustainable wedding gown is one of the best ways to host an eco-friendly wedding. While most bridal retailers sell made-to-measure gowns that are produced on demand (and often in another country), all of our gowns already exist. This directly reduces the effect that gown production has on the environment.
A Day in June gowns help the most vulnerable among us, and ensure that your gown has no additional environmental impact - so you get to live your values and look great at the same time.
