When planning a green wedding, there are many easy ways to green your bridal shower too. From organic cuisine and locally grown flowers for decorating in reusable vases that you can give to your guests, to sustainable favors to eco-friendly bridal shower invitations. That brings us to some eco-lovely ideas for environmentally friendly bridal shower invitations that are just beautiful!

How are these bridal shower invitations green?

• Both the invitations and envelopes are printed on 100% post consumer recycled paper. No trees are harmed in the production of these invitations.
• The environmentally friendly paper used is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). In addition, the paper is manufactured carbon-neutral and with 100% renewable electric energy.
• Printed with vegetable-based inks, which are less harmful to the environment.
• Printed with digital printer that uses clean, sustainable wind power to run the equipment.

In the “old” days when brides thought of eco-friendly wedding invitations printed on recycled paper, perhaps they had visions of brown paper with frayed edges. Today, recycled has never been so beautiful!

And, we are delighted to announce (just in time for the new year) that we have launched a new collection of environmentally friendly wedding invitations designed by eco-conscious (and eco-fabulous) designer Jennifer Stambolsky from Earthly Affair.

Fresh, elegant, modern and eco-chic, this beautiful collection is printed on 100% post consumer recycled paper, which means no trees were harmed to create this lovely collection of eco-friendly wedding invitations.

My personal favorite design is the two little lovebirds perched on a branch (featured above). The popular Shade design was recently featured in the premiere edition of Eco-Beautiful Weddings (below).

How are these wedding invitations eco-friendly?

• Use 100% recycled PCW paper, which means no new trees are used and averts waste from landfills.
• Envelopes consist of 100% PCW paper, are FSC-certified, made with green energy, processed chlorine free.
• Offset CO2 emissions resulting from direct shipments through carbonfund.org.

In addition to this lovely new collection, we offer seeded wedding invitations that grow wildflowers when planted (so earthy), and elegant letterpress wedding invitations which use tree-free paper. Earth friendly, eco-elegant and everything you’ve been dreaming about for your green wedding!

This Classic Collection of earth friendly invitations, engagement announcements & save-the-date cards are printed on 100% PCW paper with vegetable-based ink. They are available in many colors including cranberry, plum, violet, lavender and wine. So, why not pick purple for your green wedding? We think Mother Nature will agree that “eco-friendly” is beautiful in any color!
