Go Green! Tips For Throwing An Eco-Friendly Party By: Katie Swift



Going green is one of the hottest and most sustainable trends that has people wanting more and more!Here are some tips of the trade to be the most Eco-friendly!

1. Look for green/Eco friendly invitations and other paper goods. Options include “tree free” paper made from hemp, cotton or even banana peels!
2. Try to plan your ceremony and reception at the same venue or at nearby venues to decrease emissions from driving.
3. Use real china, silverware and napkins. Disposable dining ware creates a ton of waste at even a small event!  
4. Give green favors! Try small bags of fair trade coffee beans or small pots of seedlings.
5. Look for locally grown flowers and food! Choosing organic, locally grown flowers and food cuts down on pesticides and emissions from shipping.
