Good news indeed. One thing I would like to ask all my Indian friends is that don't waste too much of money on weddings. We need to learn a lot from the simplicity of other cultures.
I can suggest to emulate such a simple marriage that had happened in my state, Kerala. It was of the son of a minister here. Everything including food were simple. They even disbursed tree plants to the guests. After hearing all these newses, I have already decided that my marriage should be something simple like that!
I agree with you on it. In fact, the above mentioned marriage was minimalist too and several varieties of saplings like, sandalwood, rosewood, jack-fruit and neem and over 5000 such saplings were distributed as a return gift to guests.
Will you be planning your wedding vegan too? That would be awesome! Your action will inspire many more to act in this direction and may start a new & sustainable tradition.
