For now at least, weddings have cannabis beat, badly: The ritual of matrimony is worth $53.6 billion a year, <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/killer-mike-says-run-jewels-smokes-six-pounds-per-album\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to a 2013 estimate<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So perhaps it was only natural for weed and weddings to hit it off. This particular romance has manifested itself in a marijuana-friendly wedding chapel in Las Vegas and cannabis-centric wedding planners in Colorado, the latter of whom, spurned by more traditional (read: cannabis-free) wedding expos, launched their very own.<\/p>\n<p>President\u2019s Day weekend saw the second annual running of the Cannabis Wedding Expo. As Fox-31 reported, more than 1,000 people trekked out to a Denver suburb to hear how they can incorporate weed into a wedding. Speaking of: how do you do that, exactly, aside from serving a medicated wedding cake or having a dab bar at the reception? Actually, both of those are great ideas, but let\u2019s not stop there.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s Philip Wolf, one of the Cannabis Wedding Expo\u2019s creators:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of different ways to incorporate cannabis into weddings, from having hair and makeup artists who are cannabis friendly, where a bride can smoke a joint beforehand, to full budtending services, to edible chefs.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Other weed-friendly wedding solutions include sliding a stick of Sour Diesel next to the other flowers in a bride\u2019s bouquet, pinning a nugget in a groom\u2019s boutonniere and dresses made entirely of hemp.<\/p>\n<p>Since it\u2019s unlikely your grandmother\u2019s ring or her heirloom veil had anything to do with marijuana, should you have difficulty making any of these weed-friendly wedding items happen yourself, that\u2019s what the vendors on hand at the expo are for.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TELL US,\u00a0<\/strong>have you attended a weed wedding?<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/people-saying-weed-infused-weddings\/\">More People are Saying \u201cI Do\u201d to Weed Infused Weddings<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\">Cannabis Now<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nRead More: <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/people-saying-weed-infused-weddings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More People are Saying \u201cI Do\u201d to Weed Infused Weddings<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So you\u2019re into exquisite dinners and sumptuous brunches paired with cannabis?
