Zero Waste Wedding Planning Tips

Get married, not married to your trash.

We're not saying you're wasteful, but... actually, we are.

Here's the deal:

Use a reusable wedding dress (no, it doesn't have to be your grandma's)
Make your own wedding favors (e.g., candles, soaps, or homemade jam)
Choose a venue that's already been decorated (e.g., a museum, a library, or a dumpster)
Send digital invites (no paper, no trees, no stress)
Use second-hand decorations (e.g., thrift store finds, or items from your grandma's attic)
Have a "waste-not" ceremony (e.g., a unity candle made of recycled materials)

And, as the great philosopher, Dolly Parton, once said:

Working 9 to 5, what do you get?

Two-thirty, five, you get the weekend

We're not saying we're perfect, but we're trying to make a difference, one wedding at a time.
