An Eco-Friendly Maui Wedding
Your Maui wedding journey does not need to be riddled with excess that leads to waste. Being eco-friendly is a priority for many; there are several creative alternatives to the traditions of yesterday.
You've embraced going digital on all your wedding preparations so far, but you're not sure how to avoid printed wedding save-the-date notices and wedding programs, and this is one place you refuse to go hi-tech.
Wedding programs, while significant in acknowledging those who are standing up on your behalf, are only held for a short number of minutes and then quickly discarded. Save-the-date announcements, once put on the digital calendar, are then often thrown into the recycle bin. You're still relatively traditional, so you don't want to digitalize everything, and finding creative replacement is a priority. One original option is to design your wedding day announcement on plantable seed paper. This not only eliminates all the waste typically found with conventional paper products, but it also has the added benefit of providing beautiful blooms wherever it’s planted. Another fun option is producing your ‘don’t forget’ as a coaster. Made from heavyweight recycled paper, a coaster is a great keepsake and a unique way to make sure your guests remember the date.
Environmentally friendly options to replace a printed wedding program are in line with the decorative home trend of wooden signs. Creating a sign on wood, chalkboard, acrylic, or even producing a poster is an excellent choice. Displaying your unique creation on an easel for all to view is an ideal way to cut waste, and it provides a memento of the day that you can display for years to come.
Don’t let your desire for an eco-friendly Maui wedding experience get you ruffled. Creating beautifully unique alternatives supply you and your guests with a sustainable token of your special day!
