MMh I like the idea of recycling....BUT not quite sure on this one

30-year-old primary school deputy headteacher wore a dress made of bubble wrap when she tied the knot with Duncan Turner, 32.



The dress used up 13ft of the packing material and was put together last month by pupils and parents at her school for a fashion show featuring recyclable materials.


He said: 'She looked incredible. It's an amazing dress and just goes to show what can be done with unusual materials.
'We're both very keen on the environment and wildlife, and this felt the right thing to do to show our appreciation of important they are.'

The eco-friendly couple walked down an aisle of grass matting with planted flowers in front of 120 guests with Rachael wearing a more traditional dress.
But even that didn't last long as it has now been chopped up and recycled into a cocktail dress.
