Choosing sustainable materials and decor
Consider using recycled or upcycled materials for invitations, signage, and decorations. Opt for biodegradable confetti or flower petals for tossing instead of traditional rice or paper confetti. Choose locally sourced and in-season flowers to reduce the carbon footprint of your floral arrangements.
Opting for eco-friendly attire and accessories
Look for wedding attire made from sustainable fabrics such as organic cotton, hemp, or bamboo. Consider renting or buying second-hand wedding attire to reduce waste. Choose jewelry made from ethically sourced and recycled materials.
Reducing waste with mindful catering and favors
Work with a caterer who prioritizes locally sourced, organic, and seasonal ingredients. Opt for a vegan or vegetarian menu to reduce the environmental impact of your wedding. Instead of traditional favors, consider giving guests potted plants or seeds that they can plant and grow.
Utilizing renewable energy and carbon offsetting
Choose a venue that utilizes renewable energy sources such as solar or wind power. Consider offsetting the carbon footprint of your wedding by investing in carbon offset projects or donating to environmental organizations. Encourage guests to carpool or use public transportation to reduce emissions from travel.
