Decorations may rank among the most difficult tasks to do, depending on the size and subject of your wedding. Your wedding planner provides us with plenty of ideas for the most idyllic wedding locations, which typically require losing a few hours of the day.

But if you value the environment and detest pointless extravagance, aiming for an Eco-friendly Wedding may be your guide.

 

Greener thinking isn't only for eco-aware couples; it may make your wedding arrangements, be possibly more cost-effective, and increase the feel-good factor on the big day. Furthermore, now is the perfect opportunity to examine how a greener wedding might look pretty darn beautiful as greenery is the Pantone colour of the year.

 

Eco-friendly Wedding Decoration

 

FURNITURE, TABLEWARE and PROPS

 

The mismatched chairs at this lovely Eco-friendly Wedding are the ideal illustration of how the worn-in aesthetic is still very much wanted for the modern rustic wedding. The most environmentally friendly course of action when it comes to furniture, lighting, accessories, and props is to hire reusable items rather than purchase new ones whenever possible. The more locally you can source these items, the better.

Newlyweds may be giving away second-hand vases, candlesticks, or glasses that they purchased for their weddings. You can sell them or give them to someone else after the event.

 

NATURAL MATERIALS

 

Consider using linens produced from natural fibres for your tables if you feel that those immaculate white tablecloths are a touch too formal for your tastes. Hessian, hemp or pure linen runners and napkins go well with rustic tables made of natural wood, vintage crockery, and candles. For subtle rustic charm, add some seasonal flowers and greenery.

Obtaining ideas from a rural Eco-friendly Wedding. Think about draping driftwood branches over your tabletop and hanging glass terrariums at various heights. Some can hold tea lights, while others function as stem vases.

 

Hire reusable cutlery and crockery instead of using disposable items whenever possible, including plastic straws and cups. If you must use disposables, choose bamboo or biodegradable options.

 

PLACE CARDS

 

There are more and more popular paperless solutions for wedding stationery. Digital invitations and Save the Date cards can be distributed via websites. Find ways to completely avoid using paper on the big day, and use eco-friendly place cards instead.

 

Smock Paper, which only prints on bamboo and recycled paper and uses wind energy for its printing, is one of the stationery firms that practises more environmentally friendly business practices. The handmade paper used to create the calligraphy place cards shown above has been damaged.

Write guests' names directly on leaves, stones, or sea glass, which may be ideal for a coastal-themed wedding, if you want to take the natural motif a step further.

 

LIGHTING

If you host an outdoor wedding in good weather, you can take advantage of the available natural light, but as night falls, fairy lights will make the space feel beautiful. LED fairy lights that consume little energy will glitter both inside and outside. Solar power may also be an option for events conducted in more sunny climates; just make sure they have enough juice to last the entire evening. You might also think about hiring lighting from a business like Event Planet, depending on the size of your location.

Another cheap and efficient lighting suggestion is to decorate outdoor spaces with hanging mason jar lanterns at your Eco-friendly Wedding. When it comes to clean-burning, natural soy or beeswax candles are a good eco-option. However, if you're concerned about fire risks or quickly fading flames, choose rechargeable LED candle lights.

 

REPURPOSED SIGNAGE

Display your menus, welcome messages, and table arrangements on framed glass or reusable chalkboards rather than printing them. To add to the informal mood, this welcome sign is displayed on an antique easel and accessorised with various vintage items.

 

USING FLOWER PETALS RATHER THAN CONFETTI

Traditionally, confetti is thrown towards the bride and husband, but why not do it with flower petals? Petals are a much prettier and more environmentally friendly way to celebrate your marriage. Prepare your preferred petals in advance and place them in paper bags or cones for your guests. Make sure they match the colours of your theme.
