| Q | What is your advice on planning a sustainable wedding? |
| A | Rachel Peers says: Creating eco-friendly design pieces for your wedding is a great way to support the sustainability movement, which we can see become more important to our couples every year. And there are so many ways to incorporate guilt-free styling into your designs without any impact on the aesthetics of your beautiful floral backdrop. A great way to reduce your carbon footprint when planning wedding florals is to replace the man-made floral foam often used in wedding work with a natural material such as moss or some soft malleable twisted willow. Why not consider incorporating some beautiful hired vessels and vases in your venue styling? This is a great way to create an understated yet elegant and sustainable design. Not only does it reduce your carbon footprint, it also keeps your flowers incredibly hydrated meaning they'll look at their very best from morning through to the evening, especially important during the summer months. A big one for us in our quest for sustainability is repurposing your flowers throughout your entire day, meaning those which may have otherwise only served one purpose can be reused by our team with some careful thought and planning. This not only cuts down on wastage but it offers our couples the opportunity to get the very best value from their flowers. If sustainability is playing a part in your wedding planning, your flowers are a great place to make a positive impact. |
