Are you planning your wedding, or about to plan your wedding, and are looking for environmentally and budget-friendly ideas to get you going?

Well, you’ve come to the right place.!

In this Journal entry, I’ll be giving a few examples and ideas and how to be budget oriented, while keeping the health of our planet in mind.

Find items you can use to decorate with that can be composted over time.
Some items you can use:
flowers, greenery, compostable paper, fruits

Style with items you already own and try styling yourself! This could be challenging, but also fun! This will help you save your money by not investing in an event coordinator.

If you’re not investing in a coordinator, make sure you, or someone you trust, keep track of plans and the event schedule. This task usually best suites the mother of the bride or groom, or the maid of honor or best man.

If you’re still trying to save money, have guests take photos on their cellphones/ personal cameras and hire your photographer for a specific set of photos/ time
(ex: 2 hours (the ceremony, family photos, and bridal photos)).

I hope this Journal post gives you some inspiration and motivation to save money on your wedding day while having a recycle and reuse mindset!
