As eco-conscious weddings gain momentum, couples are interested in finding ways to make their celebrations more sustainable. One of the most innovative solutions is plantable invitations—beautifully crafted invites that leave no waste behind and instead grow into flowers, herbs or trees.

Here's why plantable invitations are the perfect green wedding favors and how they can add charm to your special day.

What Are Plantable Invitations?

Plantable invitations are made from seed paper, a biodegradable paper embedded with seeds. After the wedding, guests can plant the invitation in soil, which will sprout into plants with proper care.

Types of Plants You Can Choose:

• Wildflowers for a burst of color.
• Herbs like basil and thyme.
• Vegetables such as lettuce or carrots.
• Trees for a long-lasting memory.

Why Choose Plantable Invitations?

1. Eco-Friendly and Waste-Free

Traditional invitations often end up in the trash, but plantable invites return to nature, leaving no waste.

2. A Unique Guest Experience

Your guests will cherish the opportunity to grow something meaningful from your wedding. It’s a favor and an invitation rolled into one!

3. Stylish and Customizable

Plantable invitations can be as elegant and creative as traditional ones, with options for:

• Laser-cut designs.

• Calligraphy-style fonts.
• Custom illustrations.

4. Promoting Sustainability

Plantable invitations support eco-friendly practices, which reduce your carbon footprint and inspire others to consider greener alternatives.
