Useful Gifts at Weddings
Eco-friendly gifts are often more useful. Many common gifts tend to be forgotten or unused, but there are great variety of eco-conscious gifts such as plantable seed cards, bamboo products or hand-cut organic soaps that are practical and can be used in the everyday life. Guests will appreciate a present that they can use and enjoy, rather than one that will end up in the back of their closet. Every time a wedding gift is in use, people will be remembered of the special wedding day.
Thoughtful Gifts at Weddings
Secondly, eco-friendly gifts can be more unique, thoughtful and personal. By choosing green gifts, you can customize them to match your wedding theme, add personalised touches, or even make them yourself. Guests will appreciate a present that shows the host’s effort and thoughtfulness.

Many eco-friendly products are made by small businesses or local artisans, which support the local economy and promote fair trade practices. By choosing eco-friendly options, you are not only supporting the environment but also supporting small businesses, indie brands and artisans.

Plantable Seed Paper
Another great ecological idea for weddings is to gift plantable seed cards, containing a personal note to thank your guests.
