Don’t Forget The Non Drinkers: Vegan Mocktail Making Workshop: with Align Events
Non drinkers at weddings often are given a juice or a cola…and have to watch everyone else enjoy their fancy cocktails or champagne! We have two workshops throughout the day where Yaz from @align_events_ will be sharing how to make fabulous vegan mocktails that everyone else will want! Align Events is an alcohol free cocktail bar serving London and The Cotswolds.
Look Around The Venue: The Ecology Pavilion
The Ecology Pavilion is in the heart of East London and is a large modern venue in the natural surroundings of the Ecology Park which was designed with sustainability in mind. The building is buried in a grass bank giving it beautifully natural surroundings and the perfect space for your wedding too! It’s 20 minutes from the City and West End on the Central line and a 10-minute walk from Mile End Underground Station. Come and see how beautiful it is for yourself and do some epic and informative wedding planning whilst you’re there!
This event is now in the past but you can find out about our upcoming ECO Wedding Show – London, 14th April, 2024 here.
We look forward to seeing you there!
