OUR SUSTAINABILITY PRACTICES

How we plan with purpose.

Sustainability is woven into everything we do – from how we run our business to how we guide your planning experience. Here’s how we keep things thoughtful every step of the way:

Sustainable Business Practices

  • Planting trees: We plant a tree for every couple that books with us through One Tree Planted, supporting reforestation and carbon offset efforts.

  • Digital everything: We keep the planning process as paper-free and streamlined as possible by using digital contracts and an online planning portal linked to digital guides, tools, and planning documents.

  • Virtual meetings: Besides walk throughs and design mockups, most of our meetings happen online, reducing unnecessary travel. If we do meet in person, we’ll suggest a central locally-owned coffee shop to cut down on travel.

  • Printing & supplies: When printing is necessary, we print on recycled paper using an Epson EcoTank printer which uses refillable ink reservoirs rather than disposable ink cartridges. Physical office and client materials are purchased thoughtfully – recycled paper goods, eco-friendly packaging, and quality long-lasting products from small businesses.

  • Local conservation: We're a proud member of the Idaho Conservation League and support their efforts to protect the nearby lands that we love.

Sustainable Planning Practices

  • Green planning guidance: We offer every couple realistic, personalized guidance on how to reduce waste, source consciously, and plan a more mindful wedding without sacrificing style or budget.

  • Logistics: Efficient planning = sustainable planning. We help streamline rental orders, prioritize vendors local to your venue, and create efficient wedding day transportation plans to reduce emissions.

  • Vendor collaboration: We spark conversations with vendors to explore lower-impact options where possible.

  • Decor rentals: We have a small inventory of decor available for our clients to rent, reducing the need for new purchases. We regularly audit our inventory, and donate or sell decor that isn’t regularly used.
