Practical ways to Make your wedding day More Environmentally Friendly

Nobody said you had to do something huge in your efforts to save the earth. Small efforts and small steps all add up to help our fragile planet.

In all areas of our lives, there are small steps we can be taken to put a halt on the pollution that is ravishing our bruised planet. Even picnics and weddings can be planned in such a way that they become more environmentally friendly.

A Unique, Caring Wedding

Your wedding is a special day but it can also be unique and caring. You can get right into the swing of things by choosing an eco-friendly venue. Royal Lancaster London has beautiful views over Hyde Park and it is close to lots of top tourist attractions. It’s an environmentally friendly hotel in London with the philosophy ‘walk softly on the planet’.

Royal Lancaster Hotel – Sweeter than Honey

The hotel has plenty of energy saving practices and is big on recycling too. They have staff meetings at the hotel to keep tabs on their recycling targets and are always looking at ways to jack up their efforts to ‘green’ their hotel even further.

What is really awesome is that they are also aware of the decline in honey bee populations and they keep their own beehives. Your honeymoon in this wonderful hotel will be all the sweeter when you taste the honey you receive as a honeymoon gift.

Go Local

Think about your flowers too, and how costly it can be to use imported flowers. Rather opt for locally grown flowers that come from organic farms where pesticides don’t exist.

Planning an eco-friendly wedding can be easy too because there is a lot of emphasis on ‘going green’. Preparing for such an exciting day needn’t be difficult when you choose the right venue.

When going green, you don’t have to sacrifice niceties and glamour to have a lovely wedding. When shopping for your wedding dress, why not rent instead of buying? There are some beautiful wedding gowns ‘like new’, and the bonus part is you save lots of money while still looking gorgeous.

When our planet is ugly, parched and no longer filled with sights and sounds of nature, you’ll wish that you, like the Royal Lancaster London, had taken a more active part in conserving it. Stick with people who care and you’re guaranteed to have the most splendid wedding that others concerned for the environment will want to emulate.
