Veganism is more than a choice of what foods to eat or not eat. It's a way of life. So when Jessica Humphries, and Alvaro Tomaz planned their wedding, they decided to share philosophy with their guests. Which meant their wouldn't be any dairy, meat or even honey.
But the menu was full of surprises: mung bean cakes with sweet and sour sauce, mushrooms in phyllo purses and char-grilled vegetables with garlic pesto humus. Artichoke bruschetta were served with and assortment of new potatoes hollowed out and stuffed with smoked tempeh relish, mushroom bruschetta and cipollini relish.
"For us, veganism is a way of life that does not use animal products -- no leather, fur, products that were tested on animals, cosmetics and body products containing animal proteins," said Jessica. Who met Mr. Tomaz in Brazil, where the two noticed one another at one of the country's famous plazas, (this is a great place for a destination wedding by the way, -check out our feature).
