Green Wedding Favors

While recently discussing wedding ideas with my recently-named ‘future sister-in-law’, I revisited the “Greening your wedding” idea and contemplated the essential ‘wedding favors’. How can you give your guests an eco-friendly take-a-way?

Here are some ideas to find the perfect earthly gift:

Soy-based lip balm. (You can even make your own with some supplies & Googling.)
Natural bamboo coasters
Donate to an earth-friendly cause
Earth tags – have your guests plant a flower to remember your big day
Natural soaps
Bamboo plants
Plant-able “You May be Seeded” cards
Fair Trade chocolate such as Endangered Species Chocolate

Beau coup is one of many companies offering eco-friendly wedding favors.
