So, you would like to make your wedding as carbon friendly as possible but don’t know how or where to start.... You think its sounds like just another expense and one more thing to organise.... check out our list of 10 things you can do to make your wedding greener and show your love for the planet....
Hold your ceremony and reception at the same location. This is not only great for the environment but also convenient for your guests (We at Bride Online LOVE a ceremony and reception combo!)

Chose fuel efficient weddings cars
Use recycled paper for invitations and remove any excess like registry info etc Ask guests to recycle your invitations. Provide an electronic invitation with extra info (such as registry and RSVP)
Use local produce and wines where possible
Register your wedding for carbon credits and encourage guests to buy credits rather than gifts
Use native flowers and decorations where possible
If you are having wedding bomboniere hand made from recycled materials
Look for a pre loved gown
