Since the environment is very dear to our hearts, we thought Global Recycling Day was a perfect opportunity to share some eco-friendly tips you can incorporate into your wedding day.
♻️ Floral Arrangements for Repurposing: Work with your florist to design centrepieces and bouquets that can be donated to hospitals, nursing homes, or other charitable organizations after the wedding.
♻️Digital Wedding Invitations: Inviting your guests to your wedding using digital invitations not only saves a bunch of paper, but will also make the planning process easier. Links to your wedding website and a place to RSVP can be added directly to the digital invite making it super easy for guests to do and for you to keep track of.
♻️ Eco-Friendly Wedding Favours: Instead of traditional wedding favours, offer guests eco-friendly gifts like reusable water bottles, tote bags, or potted plants that they can use again. Reach out to us to find out about local, eco-friendly vendors.
♻️Vintage or Borrowed Decorations: Use vintage or borrowed décor, like tableware or chandeliers, instead of buying new ones, helping to reduce your wedding’s carbon footprint.
♻️ Food Waste Reduction: Work with the caterer to plan for leftovers to be donated to shelters or food banks to help minimize food waste.
♻️ Repurpose Décor: After the ceremony, move flower arrangements and decorations to the reception area or donate them to local venues to enjoy longer.
If you feel like taking it a step further, add more meaning to your decorations by using sentimental things that shaped your love story, or make things yourself like Sophie and Talia did!
♻️ Sustainable Wedding Cake Topper: Choose a reusable or recycled cake topper that can be kept as a keepsake or passed down through generations.
♻️ Eco-Friendly Confetti: Instead of throwing paper or plastic confetti, use biodegradable options like flower petals, dried leaves, or even birdseed to celebrate your exit.
(The confetti included in our packages is eco-friendly!)
Reusing Wedding Jewelry: Perhaps your something borrowed! Choose heirloom or vintage jewelry for your wedding day, or swap out new pieces with family jewelry that can be passed down, making the wedding day even more meaningful.

Since we should be doing actions like this every day for our planet, we've curated the list below of ways you can implement recycling in your every life, not just on your wedding day.
Keep scrolling to find out what we do as a company to be eco-friendly!
Donate Clothing
♻️ Donating your clothes is a simple way to make a big difference! By giving your items a second life, you’re helping to keep them out of landfills, saving valuable resources, and reducing pollution. Plus, this simple act conserves resources, minimizes pollution, and supports a more sustainable fashion industry, benefiting both the environment and communities in need. 🌍♻️
Your Food
♻️ The food you buy and the packaging it comes in can really make a difference! By picking products with less packaging or choosing recyclable options, and supporting local, sustainable sources, you're helping reduce waste and protect the planet—one meal at a time! 🌿🍽️
Compost
♻️ Compost Your Food Waste – Reduce organic waste by composting your food scraps to create nutrient-rich soil for gardening. 🌿🍽️
Digital vs Paper
♻️ Go paperless whenever possible by choosing digital receipts, billing, and reading news online. 🌿🍽️
Bar Soap vs Liquid
Bar soap doesn’t require plastic packaging and lasts longer than liquid soap, making it a more eco-friendly choice.

Sophie and Talia spent their first date walking through Mer Bleue Bog, so it was only fitting that we revisited this spot for their engagement session. With their wedding only a few weeks away, it was lovely to meet up with them again so close to them tying the knot to reconnect.
