How to Choose a Sustainable Approach
Without Giving Up on Style
Today, more and more couples are choosing to plan an eco-friendly wedding, without sacrificing beauty and elegance. An eco-friendly wedding is based on conscious choices that can reduce environmental impact, favoring recycled materials, natural decorations, and local products. In this article, I want to share some of the ideas I used for a recent event that might inspire you too.
Sustainable Centerpieces: Elegance with Recycled Materials
For the centerpieces, I chose to use recycled water bottles, filled with water and embellished with a floating candle. These simple yet elegant elements were placed on a natural wood slice, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Using recycled materials not only reduces waste but also adds a rustic and authentic touch to the decoration.
Wooden Table Markers: Design and Sustainability
For the table markers, I opted for laser-cut wooden knights, an elegant and minimalist solution. Untreated wood is a sustainable choice because it's biodegradable and natural, and laser cutting allows for personalized, unique designs for each couple.
An Original Wedding Tableau with a Demijohn
Another creative idea I adopted was using a recycled demijohn to create a seating plan. The demijohn, a typical Apulian element, was decorated with the guests' names, combining tradition and sustainability.
More Tips for an Eco-Friendly Wedding
- Local and seasonal flowers: Choosing local and seasonal flowers reduces the environmental impact and enhances local produce.
- For the favors, we chose a useful and long-lasting object: a bottle opener, which not only represents a symbolic gesture of openness to the future, but is also a product that can be reused over time. Opting for functional and long-lasting favors, rather than disposable items, is an excellent choice for those who want to reduce waste without sacrificing a special keepsake for their guests.
- Recycled paper for invitations and menus: Printing on recycled paper or opting for digital solutions reduces waste and gives a natural look to your wedding.
