Happy Earth Day!

In celebration of Earth Day, we wanted to share some ideas with you to help with reducing your carbon footprint by planning a more sustainable wedding.
  • Where possible, reuse and recycle. This may mean renting your wedding attire, wedding linens and reusing disposable elements from your ceremony to reception - such as flowers.
  • This brings us to the next point - Flowers. Opt for potted plants, locally grown flowers, greenery and perhaps fruits and vegetables.
  • Reduce paper products like wedding programs, menu cards and paper napkins. Instead, use chalkboard/whiteboard signs, leaves instead of menu & place cards and cloth napkins instead of paper ones.
  • Choose a menu where produce can be locally sourced. The same goes for beverages, purchase from local distilleries, breweries and manufacturers.
  • Stay away from wedding favors that are packaged in plastic or paper that will get thrown away. Your guests may enjoy a small potted plant, locally produced rum, locally produced food items or even seeds to plant a tree. Consider packaging items in a small bag that can be reused.
