Eco Friendly Wedding Ideas

Nowadays, brides and grooms are trying to be conscience of the environment when planning their big day. We believe it is important to be a green as possible in all elements of planning. Here are a few green suggestions:

1. Invitations and programs printed on recycled paper is a great way to try and keep your wedding green. Using paper from a company that recycles helps the environment and you still have fabulous invitations and programs. If you still want to be more eco friendly, consider sending Save The Date’s on invitations paperless through email.

2. Re-use decorations you already have around your house. Find old bottles and vases to use as the centerpieces of the guest tables. Also, climb up in your attic or look through your grandma’s old boxes for vintage linens and tablecloths. Having those classic touches can really help you from spending money on those decorations.

3. Using eco-fetti instead of paper confetti or streamers is another environment friendly way to cut back on your wedding. Eco-fetti is made to dissolve when it hits the ground, therefore it doesn’t hurt the environment, and it still has the great “confetti” effect when the bride and groom exit the wedding.

Wedding Grand Exit Ideas

Not sure what to do for your wedding grand exit? Here are some rice-alternative ideas that fit every style.

Bubbles: Bubbles are great for kids and make a nice take-away. They also make for fun photos with little clean-up and are very affordable.

Petals: If you want something traditional, consider rose petals, dried lavender or other dried floral. You get a pop of color in your photos, something that smells nice and it’s eco-friendly!

Eco-Friendly Confetti: Also known as “eco-fetti,” this faux confetti gives you more control over color and style and dissolves naturally as petals or lavender would. Read More »
