Weddings don't have to be wasteful! Keep your special day aligned with your eco-friendly values by making choices that won't harm the environment. Not sure where to start? Consider these ideas when planning your wedding.

DIY + Thrifting

Hit up some thrift stores and search for mix-and-match glassware, silverware, vases and other items that can be used for decor throughout the venue. Think outside the box for place cards, table numbers, centerpieces, etc.

Clothing

Yes, there are brands that make sustainable wedding attire! Reformation, Lost in Paris and Roland Mouret are just a few labels to check out if wearing an eco-friendly dress is important to you. You can also explore vintage bridal gown boutiques or pre-worn dresses from sources like Still White.

Go Paperless

Consider eco-friendly confetti options like hole-punched leaves or bits of dried lavender for guests to throw. Instead of paper menus at each place setting, write the evening's menu on a large chalkboard for all to see. Use repurposed materials for the wedding program.

Venue

Choose a venue that's naturally beautiful so you won't have to add much decor. It saves on cost and helps the environment. Romantic gardens, stunning beaches or lush forests are great options.
