If you’re looking to have an eco-friendly wedding, take a look at these helpful tips and tricks for your big day.

 

Taking care of the planet is a responsibility we all have and that doesn’t stop when it comes to your wedding! In this blog, we’re going to go over some unique ways that you can make your wedding eco-friendly. Feel free to take a look at the following options and see if any of them could be right for your big day.

Eco-Friendly Wedding Ideas

Let’s go over some of the top ways that you can be kind to the planet while you’re planning your wedding. These options may not all be right for every wedding, but you may be able to pick a few that make sense for your big day.

Skip Paper Invitations

Paper invitations can not only be expensive, but they can be wasteful and take up a lot of resources. Because of this, it can be a great option to go with virtual invitations. This may not be the traditional route, but it’s one that can save you a lot of money and it’s more eco-friendly than paper invitations that will be thrown away.

 

If you do decide that paper invitations are right for you, consider going with a recycled paper option or choosing a paper that’s biodegradable. 

Choose Mindful Vendors

One of the best ways that you can make sure your wedding is eco-friendly has to do with the vendors that you hire. Speaking with potential vendors about how you want your wedding to be responsible and eco-friendly can be a great way to narrow down your options and see which vendors might be the right choice for your big day. 

 

From the food that you serve to the napkins at your reception, there are lots of ways you can add an eco-friendly twist to your wedding day.

Choose In-Season Flowers

It’s typically recommended that you choose in-season flowers because they’ll be fresh and look the best, but this is actually another way that you can be kind to the planet. Consider speaking with your florist about ways that you can reduce waste and choose flowers that will be eco-friendly and ethically responsible.

 

There are so many great flower options out there and choosing in-season flowers really won’t limit you. Depending on the time of year when you get married, you’ll most likely be able to put together a gorgeous bouquet or floral decorations while still making sure that you’re being eco-friendly.
