It’s true, your wedding is one of the most memorable days of your life, but it also only lasts a day. Make that day count even more by having an environmentally friendly wedding. Not every aspect of your wedding needs to be green, but we have some great suggestions that you can include to ensure your wedding is beautiful and eco-friendly, too. Today’s colour palette “Muted Earth Tones” combines shades of olive, khaki, sage all paired with just the softest hint of tan.

Wedding Stationery : For an organic wedding, you can start by have recycled papers to serve as your invitation.
Wedding Dress : Organic fabric is also a must for the green bride. Choose a wedding dress that is made from natural materials like silk,lace and cotton as these create less negative impact on the environment. You may consider purchasing a once worn, previously owned wedding gown.
Wedding Flowers : Wedding flowers are perfect centrepieces. Simply put a pretty ribbon around a mason jar or glass vase, and fill it with beautiful flowers such as eucalyptus, gypsophila (baby’s breath), lamb’s ear,Russian olive, and you have a wedding centerpiece your guests can use again!
Wedding Table Decor Ideas : Consider using fresh herbs such as sage and rosemary on your wedding table decor. For example sprigs of rosemary for place setting cards this such as cute idea. And a simple way to bring a little more nature to your rustic wedding table. Just find some pretty, delicate, and pliable greenery around you and wrap it around your napkin roll to add to the organic look and feel.
Organic – Eco-Friendly wedding favors are becoming more and more popular. You can choose personalized seed packets that come adorned with you and your husband’s name, wedding date, and customized to your wedding theme. There’s also garden gift baskets filled with cute seed packets to match your wedding theme.
Wedding Food : And for a full organic wedding, the food must also be in sync with your chosen theme. Consider homemade bread. Use fresh herbs that are ingredients in the main course for a fun dinner. We love those baguettes wrapped in twine with rosemary at each place setting. For cake choose a simple wedding cake such as a naked cake, or semi naked wedding cake with a simple floral topper or drizzle wedding cake with salted caramel.
