Today the first appointment with the top topic of the moment: among the various wedding trends, that eco-sustainable It never goes out of fashion because it doesn't follow fashion, but rather one lifestyle that the couple adopts in their daily lives.
While on the one hand the media continue to propose innovative ideas and on the one hand, young couples dream about how to organize their wedding, while on the other hand, there are more and more of them who choose to pay greater attention to the sustainability of their wedding project.
The sustainable marriage, in fact, it is recognized not only by the architecture of the furnishings and the materials used to create them, very simple and linear, but by a series of precise measures to support the environment that the couple decides to adopt, starting from the choice of location for the reception, continuing with that of the menu, passing through all the style details which characterize the staging of such an important event.
But what are the most important elements for an eco-wedding or a eco-friendly wedding?
The choice of location in which to set the wedding reception will be the first that the spouses will have to make, therefore it must be immersed in green and possibly not far from the place where the ceremony will be held. The arrangements must be simple made for example with recycled materials or biodegradable. The floral ones, on the other hand, should favour the seasonal flowers, which will be placed in vintage vases rediscovered in some garage or cellar and brought back to “life” in a totally new guise, or reusable containers.
Furthermore, the same floral decorations planned for the ceremony, whether religious or civil, can be recovered and repositioned at the reception venue, thus avoiding unnecessary waste. For centerpieces, take-away options can also be considered.
The eco menu, for its part, should be based on seasonal products, possibly km 0.
These are just a few examples of how to approach some wedding decisions from an eco-sustainable perspective.
The eco-sustainability of the wedding must also be reflected in everything else, from the bride's dress, preferably in a natural fabric such as silk mixed with rougher linen elements, to invitations to be printed, preferably on recycled paper or even to be sent "virtually" via social media or email, avoiding both the waste of paper obtained from trees and the use of substances such as inks. Or, again, useful party favors, see small donations to charities, or, for those who prefer a more traditional gift, small jars containing homemade jams or honey. And let's not forget the beautiful succulents symbolizing the birth of a new family.
In short, there's no shortage of ideas for an eco-friendly wedding, and they'll definitely amaze and delight your friends and family.
In general, it's important for couples who choose to have a wedding of this kind to be aware that an eco-friendly wedding is no less impressive; in fact, it can be made very chic with just a few original details, transforming it into an event that is not only ecological, but eco-chic.
