It might seem wasteful to you to decorate and use all of these cut flowers in order to make a big room beautiful for one night. Are there any environmentally friendly options?
Change the setting
The easiest way to keep from using cut flowers and dried petals is to have your reception and ceremony outside. This sounds like trouble in the making, but its a lot easier than it sounds. If you have a large space in someones yard or in a park(with everyones permission), you can set up a large tent for the reception hall and even the ceremony if youd like.
Since guests will be under a roof, there is little need for worrying about the weather and they can still see the beauty of the outside as they eat. Find a beautiful setting and light some lanterns around the tent, it creates a soft glow well into the evening.
New ingredients
Of course, if youre looking for the most earth friendly eating options, you will want to select the buffet option with a limited portion of food. Any additional food can be donated to the local shelter if youd like.
You will not be using any plastic forks or cups, so you will need a lot of glasses and silverware to make...
