How to Throw a Handcrafted, Sustainable Wedding

How to throw a sustainable wedding

Your wedding is a day you will never forget, make it one that reflects who you are, and throw a uniquely sustainable wedding!

It’s a moment to gather your people together, the ones who will support you over the years. The ones you’ll lean on because life is unpredictable and incredibly beautiful. Celebrate in a way that reflects your values and transforms the lives of the many artisans from around the world who handcraft these one-of-a-kind, sustainable wedding goods.

Greet Your Guests: Artisan-Crafted Picture Frames & Guestbook

To greet guests, set up a table showcasing some of those love moments that led you here; share them in the Sunburst Picture Frame and the Mango Wood Tree Frame! For a fun twist, have a mini Instax camera for guests to take selfies, then add a personalized message to them—best guestbook ever! Stack them in a handcrafted Gunde Heart memory box for a unique lifetime keepsake.
