Sustainability is the number 1 trend, adopt this trend at your wedding as well

Among the wedding trends of recent years, there is a more sustainable approach. Wondering how you can lighten the planet on your Big Day? Weddings, like other celebrations, are often full of excess waste and waste in addition to joy. How can a wedding be made more sustainable? We have 8 tips for you that will save the planet.

1. Electronic invitations

You can start with the invitations themselves. And although at first glance it may seem that invitations will lose their charm in electronic form, the opposite may be true. Instead of a classic pdf file, try inviting your guests, for example, through a personalized video.

2. Everything in one place

A ceremony on a meadow in the heart of the Bohemian Paradise, a banquet and party in a Bedouin tent with a view of Trosky Castle, accommodation in glamping tents for up to 50 guests – in short, a wedding in one place with everything. This is exactly what we offer here at the Na Pasece resort. Thanks to this, you and your guests do not have to drive anywhere, which saves both time and carbon footprint.

3. Local foods

We will facilitate your preparations even when providing catering, we cooperate with several certified suppliers who prepare the wedding menu and other refreshments from local ingredients. If you want to make the menu even more sustainable, don’t forget to include meatless dishes, which are characterized by their low carbon footprint and will certainly be appreciated by some of your guests.

4. Flowers from Czech meadows and gardens

If there’s one thing that really belongs to a wedding, it’s flowers. Unfortunately, they are also one of the things that are often wasted at weddings. In addition to the fact that you can arrange wedding bouquets and bouquets for the bridesmaids at local florists (you can find tips verified by us in our wedding guide), you can also include flowers in pots in the decoration. Thanks to this, they will make you happy not only during your Big Day.

And our little bonus tip: You can also use them as a gift for guests, thanks to which they will also have a nice memory.

5. The second life of decorations

When looking for decorations, instead of browsing e-shops, try to reach out to acquaintances or rummage through your parents’ and grandparents’ attic. We believe that you will come across a few pieces that you can use to breathe new life into your D-Day. In addition, at the Na Pasece resort, we have a wide range of inventory to choose from, which you can use for your wedding day and will definitely not burden the planet. Do you want a glory gate or a popcorn machine? We can handle almost anything.

6. Respect for animals

When weddings take place in nature, such as our resort, it is also good to think about the surrounding environment, i.e. the animals that are found in the adjacent meadows and groves. That is why we recommend moving the wedding celebrations to the barn after midnight. You can have fun there until the morning hours and you won’t disturb the life of a single animal in the surrounding forests.

7. Mass transport

In order to facilitate the coordination of guests traveling from one location, you can also recommend them to use shared rides, or order a smaller or larger bus to take guests to the wedding location. In addition, it often happens that the fun starts already on the way to the wedding and the guests arrive in the right mood.

8. Something old or borrowed

One of the wedding customs says that the bride should have something new, old, blue and borrowed for the wedding. And although wedding dresses for brides are often one of the most difficult choices, try to look at the offers of rental shops or online marketplaces when choosing them. Perhaps you will find the dress of your dreams there and at the same time you will be able to check off something borrowed or old. Moreover, this type does not only apply to brides and their wedding dresses. You can also buy the groom’s suit this way, or the bride’s wedding shoes, in which you can dance the night away.

Brides, did we lighten your heart? Now you know that a wedding can be done in a much more sustainable way and does not need to be wasted. We at the Na Pasece resort are here to help you with everything and we will be happy to answer your questions, even regarding the individual items in today’s article.
