Eco-Chic Weddings in WA: How to Plan a Green and Gorgeous Celebration
More couples are looking for ways to celebrate their love while staying kind to the planet. Here in Western Australia, we’re spoiled with natural beauty—so why not make choices that protect it? From eco-friendly wedding venues to mindful styling and catering, a green wedding can still be every bit as gorgeous (and often more personal).
Choosing a Sustainable Venue
The venue sets the tone for your wedding—and it’s one of the easiest places to make eco-friendly choices. Look for:
Eco-certified or sustainable venues that recycle, compost, or run on renewable energy.
Outdoor or naturally lit spaces to reduce the need for artificial lighting.
Locations close to your guests to minimise travel emissions.
Flowers & Styling with a Conscience
Décor and styling can have a big environmental footprint—but with a few tweaks, you can keep it chic and sustainable:
Use locally grown, seasonal flowers or opt for natives that last longer.
Rent or reuse décor instead of buying single-use items.
Dried florals or potted plants double as décor and guest take-home gifts.
Ethical Food & Drink
Food is at the heart of any wedding celebration—and it’s a chance to show off WA’s incredible local produce:
Work with caterers who source from local growers and winemakers.
Opt for a seasonal menu to reduce imports.
Minimise waste by donating leftovers or choosing portion-conscious service styles (like shared platters).
Sustainable Fashion Choices
Wedding fashion doesn’t need to be fast fashion. Brides, grooms, and bridal parties can all make mindful choices:
Choose designers who use sustainable fabrics or ethical production methods.
Consider buying pre-loved dresses/suits or renting.
Encourage bridal parties to choose outfits they’ll rewear.
Mindful Favours & Stationery
Skip the throwaway trinkets and instead offer:
Plantable seed paper invites.
Edible favours like jars of local honey or homemade olive oil.
Digital RSVPs and save-the-dates to cut down on paper.
