The Environmental Impact of Traditional Wedding Invitations

Traditional wedding invitations, often crafted from virgin paper and adorned with synthetic embellishments such as digital foiling, contribute to deforestation, water pollution, and increased carbon emissions. The production process involves cutting down trees, which are essential for carbon absorption, and often involves harmful chemicals. Additionally, the transportation and disposal of these invitations further exacerbate their environmental footprint.

Benefits of Choosing Eco-Friendly Invitations

Opting for eco-friendly wedding invitations carries a multitude of benefits that extend far beyond your wedding day:

Reduced Environmental Impact: Eco-friendly invitations are made from sustainable materials, significantly reducing the demand for virgin resources and minimizing waste.

Symbol of Growth: Seeded paper invitations, in particular, offer a symbolic representation of the couple's love and the growth of their relationship. When planted, these invitations bloom into beautiful wildflowers, leaving a lasting memory for guests.

Unique Textures and Finishes: Invitations crafted from alternative materials like wheat, grass, and even cannabis, offer unique textures and finishes that stand out, providing an element of exclusivity to your wedding stationery.

Aesthetic Appeal of Recycled Paper: 100% recycled paper invitations exhibit a subtle, natural flecked pattern, which not only adds character but also serves as a visual indicator of their eco-friendly origin.

Types of Eco-Friendly Wedding Invitations

Seeded Paper Invitations

Seeded paper invitations are a charming and eco-conscious choice. Crafted from recycled paper embedded with wildflower seeds, these invitations not only provide guests with essential details but also the opportunity to nurture nature. Once planted, the seeds germinate, symbolizing the growth and blossoming of the couple's love.

100% Recycled Paper Invitations

These invitations are a testament to the power of recycling. Made from paper sourced from other materials, they offer a subtle yet captivating aesthetic. The characteristic flecks in the paper serve as a visual reminder of its recycled origin, adding a touch of authenticity to your invitations. Our studio offers both coated and uncoated 100% papers made from pre and post-consumer waste.

Invitations Made from Alternative Materials

For couples seeking a unique and distinctive touch, invitations made from materials like wheat, grass, seaweed, recycled coffee cups and even cannabis offer a one-of-a-kind texture and finish. Not only do they save trees, but they also introduce an element of natural beauty to your wedding stationery, as well as serving as a fantastic conversation starter.

Tips for Choosing Eco-Friendly Wedding Invitations

Consider the Materials: Look for invitations made from recycled paper, resource-saving paper, or seeded paper. These materials not only reduce the environmental impact but also provide guests with a tangible connection to nature.

Embrace Compostable Embellishments: Add a touch of elegance to your eco-friendly invitations with compostable embellishments such as embossing or foil blocking. Unlike digital foiling, these sustainable options provide a touch of class without compromising on environmental consciousness.
