Choose a sustainable venue

Opt for eco-friendly invitations and stationery
Choose recycled paper or digital invitations, and opt for plantable seed paper or biodegradable materials for your save-the-dates and thank you cards.
Use locally sourced and organic food and drinks
Work with a caterer who sources ingredients locally and offers organic and seasonal menu options. Consider serving organic wines and locally brewed beers.
Embrace sustainable decor and floral arrangements
Choose decor and flowers that are locally sourced, in-season, and biodegradable. Consider using potted plants as centerpieces and decor that can be repurposed after the wedding.
Consider eco-friendly wedding attire
Choose wedding attire made from sustainable materials, such as organic cotton, hemp, or bamboo. Consider renting or buying second-hand attire to reduce waste.
Use renewable energy sources
Consider using solar or wind energy to power your wedding ceremony and reception, and opt for energy-efficient lighting and appliances.
Reduce waste with reusable or biodegradable items
Use reusable or biodegradable dinnerware, cutlery, and straws to reduce single-use plastic waste. Consider providing reusable water bottles or cups for guests.
Give back with eco-friendly wedding favors
Choose eco-friendly wedding favors, such as seeds, plants, or sustainable products, that give back to the environment or support a charitable cause.
Plan a carbon-neutral honeymoon
Offset the carbon footprint of your honeymoon by supporting carbon offset projects or choosing eco-friendly travel options.
Offset the wedding's carbon footprint
Calculate the carbon footprint of your wedding and offset it by supporting environmental projects or investing in renewable energy initiatives.
