eco-friendly

It’s been a momentous year for Britain’s young royals, with not one but two weddings taking place. In summer, the world eagerly tuned in to watch Prince Harry exchange vows with Suits actress, Meghan Markle. In Autumn, it will be Princess Eugenie’s turn, as she prepares to say ‘I do’ to her fiancé, Jack Brooksbank.

With less than three months to go until the big day, details of Eugenie and Jack’s wedding are starting to emerge - who the maid of honor is, where it will be held, and most refreshingly of all, that it will be completely plastic free.

More than ever before, couples are choosing to adopt a more eco-friendly approach to their weddings. As the wedding season begins to close, planning season begins, with couples scoping out venues, caterers, dresses, and the finer details a wedding requires. Even if you’re not looking for a completely eco-friendly wedding, it’s important to consider the impact your wedding has on the environment. For instance, raising 12,000 roses creates 13,000 lbs of CO2 emissions – and while the roses will wilt and fade, those emissions will stick around for much longer.
