Sustainable invitations

When it comes to inviting your guests, digital invitations are an excellent way to reduce paper waste.

If physical invitations are preferred, consider using recycled paper or materials that are easily recyclable - or opt for seed paper so that guests can plant your invitation to sprout their own piece of nature.

Encouraging your guests to RSVP online minimises the use of paper and streamlines the planning process. Creating a website with information about your event can reduce the number of emails back and forth (and eases your workload!). 

You can also use invitations to give guests tips to help them play their own part in your eco-friendly event; encourage guests to use low-carbon transportation options such as public transport, car sharing or cycling, If gifts are expected, then suggesting some more sustainable options like shopping pre-loved, planning an activity together or donating to a climate charity can help to reduce the waste generated from unwanted gifts.
