Weddings can be a wasteful affair.

With growing concern over damage to the world’s climate, choosing eco-friendly options for your wedding can be a great way to help reduce your impact.

Below are some of the most effective ways to make sure your wedding is as eco-friendly as possible and may even help with the budget:

  • Create a plant-based wedding menu.
  • Plan a local wedding.
  • Buy a pre-owned wedding dress.
  • Rent your wedding outfits.
  • Have a green honeymoon.
  • Use in season flowers.
  • Hire local vendors.
  • Restore a vintage wedding dress.
  • Buy locally sourced alcohol.
  • Shop for ethically sourced engagement rings and wedding bands.
  • Choose wedding invitations made from recycled paper.
  • Pick an eco-friendly venue.
  • Choose a sustainable florist.
  • Reduce food wastage.
  • Use bio-degradable decorations.
  • Choose green wedding favours.
