What if you could plan your dream wedding and help the environment, too?
Are you planning your dream wedding but concerned about its environmental impact? Why not have the best of both worlds by planning a green wedding that can help the environment and still be the wedding of your dreams? Eco friendly weddings don’t have to be boring or sparse—they can be just as stylish and beautiful as any wedding. Here are some simple tips to ensure your wedding is as eco-friendly as possible.
Eco-Friendly Invitations
As a starting point to have an eco-friendly wedding, you need to have eco-friendly wedding invitations. This can be done by either designing and printing the invitations yourself or by ordering them from a company that specializes in eco-friendly printing. Opt for recycled and tree-free paper rather than traditional paper, and try to avoid using plastic or other non-biodegradable materials.
Reusable Decorations
When decorating your venue, it’s important to not waste materials. Instead, opt for reusable decorations such as potted plants and lanterns. You can even rent decorations from local businesses or buy second-hand decorations from thrift stores or estate sales. This way, you’ll have beautiful decorations that won’t cost the environment.
Local and Organic Foods
When it comes to the food served at your wedding, opt for local and organic options. This will not only help support local farms and businesses, but it will also ensure that you’re serving healthy and sustainable meals to your guests. You can also opt for plant-based meals or locally-sourced seafood to help reduce your environmental impact.
Eco-Friendly Favors
Your wedding favors don’t have to be wasteful either. Choose favors that are made of sustainable materials such as wood, bamboo, or recycled paper. You can also opt for biodegradable items such as seeds or seedlings that your guests can take home and plant.
An Eco-Friendly Dress
Your wedding dress doesn’t have to be wasteful either. Consider renting or buying a pre-loved dress, or even designing your own dress with sustainable fabrics. This way, you’ll still look beautiful on your special day without having to worry about the environmental impact of your dress.
Closing Message
Planning an eco-friendly wedding doesn’t have to be stressful or difficult. By following these simple tips, you can have the wedding of your dreams without having to worry about its environmental impact. So start planning your green wedding today and help create a brighter future for the planet!
