Want an eco-friendly Wedding?
Here are some earth-friendly options to consider for your bar service
Planning an eco-friendlier bar service for your event is a great way to show your guests that you care about the environment. But in all transparency, it’s a bit of a challenge due to the supplies available, their expense, and most eco-friendly options tend to require more planning and labor. But each year, with the undeniable evidence of climate change standing front and center, more and more couples are sticking with their earth-friendly values. They are willing to put in the extra effort and pay the additional costs to honor the earth and their celebration.
Here are some suggestions to make your bar service more sustainable:
Ditch single-use cups and glassware for reusable options like glass, stainless steel, or bamboo.
Use eco-friendly straws like bamboo, paper, or glass instead of plastic ones.
Choose locally-sourced and organic ingredients for your food and beverage selections to reduce your carbon footprint.
Ask vendors to use eco-friendly cleaning products that are biodegradable and non-toxic.
Minimize food waste by ordering only what you need and asking caterers if they are able to compost the leftovers.
For bar service consider serving beer, wine, and cocktails in their recyclable cans or bottles.
A customized beverage glass can double as a favor and your guest’s drinking vessel all night!
Even if you are unable to hold a completely eco-friendly event even making small changes can make a big difference in the long run.
