Is that a marijuana leaf in your bridal bouquet? It may not be your bud of choice, but there are many brides and grooms out there who seek out a cannabis-friendly event. That includes everything from floral design to vape bars.
According to a story in LA Magazine, “More than 300 people in the throes of planning their respective special days attended L.A.’s first ever Cannabis Wedding Expo on March 3 at the Sportsmen’s Lodge. Capitalizing on the recent legalization of recreational marijuana in California, the expo catered to couples who want to host weddings that are 4:20 friendly. ‘You can come here and truly plan your entire wedding, from bachelorette party to clean up,” explains expo co-founder Philip Wolf. “There are so many different aspects, so we like to have a wide variety of traditional wedding services, specialty cannabis services, and specialty cannabis products on display.’”
