Choosing Sustainable Wedding Attire and Accessories
Consider renting or buying second-hand wedding attire, opting for natural and organic fabrics, or choosing a dress and accessories that can be repurposed or worn again. Look for eco-friendly jewelry made from recycled materials or ethically sourced gemstones.
Opting for Eco-Friendly Decor and Florals
Choose decor and florals that are locally sourced, in-season, and biodegradable. Consider using potted plants as centerpieces and decor, which can be taken home and replanted after the wedding. Avoid single-use items and opt for reusable or recyclable decor.
Selecting a Green Venue and Catering Options
Choose a wedding venue that prioritizes sustainability, such as a LEED-certified building or a natural outdoor setting. Look for catering options that use locally sourced, organic ingredients and offer vegetarian or vegan menu choices to reduce the environmental impact of the wedding meal.
Reducing Waste with Thoughtful Wedding Favors and Invitations
Opt for eco-friendly wedding favors such as seeds, plants, or locally made and sustainable products. Choose digital invitations or opt for recycled paper and minimal packaging for printed invitations to reduce waste. Consider donating to a charity or environmental cause in lieu of traditional favors.
