We’ve all probably heard the old childhood rhyme: “First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes baby in the baby carriage…” Some couples can’t even make it through their wedding before eager family members and aspirational potential grandparents are asking when they should be expecting the pitter patter of little feet.
Our biggest environmental issues, like climate change and habitat loss, can be traced back to our growing human population. In fact, having a child multiplies your carbon legacy five times over because they grow up to need resources too and likely have children of their own.

We even thought of some ways they can be an educational and cheeky addition to your wedding as:
