Choosing a sustainable venue
When planning an eco-friendly wedding, consider venues that prioritize sustainability, such as LEED-certified buildings, green rooftops, or outdoor spaces with minimal environmental impact.
Using eco-friendly decor and materials
Opt for decor and materials that are biodegradable, reusable, or recyclable. Consider using potted plants, locally sourced flowers, and repurposed or rented decor items.
Opting for sustainable catering options
Choose a caterer that focuses on using locally sourced, organic, and seasonal ingredients. Consider serving plant-based or vegetarian meals to reduce the carbon footprint of the wedding.
Reducing waste with thoughtful planning
Minimize single-use items by using reusable tableware, cloth napkins, and compostable serving ware. Consider donating leftover food and decor to reduce waste.
Incorporating eco-conscious transportation
Encourage guests to carpool, use public transportation, or provide shuttle services to reduce emissions. Consider hosting the ceremony and reception at the same location to minimize travel.
