In an era of increased environmental awareness and conscious living, weddings are not exempt from the desire to make sustainable choices. Couples are now seeking ways to minimize their ecological footprint while still creating magical and memorable celebrations.
One beautiful approach gaining popularity is incorporating recycling and natural elements into wedding decor, reducing the reliance on expensive floral arrangements, and embracing the inherent beauty of plants, improvised materials, and vintage-oriented fashion brands. This editorial, captured by Alexandra Gera, delves into the enchanting world of eco-conscious weddings, which focuses on celebrating love while honoring the planet.
When it comes to planning a wedding, it’s essential to choose reliable and experienced vendors who can bring your vision to life while reflecting your unique personality. One exceptional recommendation that perfectly embodies Wed Vibes’ ideals is Happy Moments Collector. With over 10 years of experience, they are a full-service wedding and event planning company renowned for their elegant designs and flawlessly executed weddings and events across Italy and Europe. A skilled planner from HMC can assist you in selecting the ideal venue that perfectly aligns with your dream wedding in Italy.
For our editorial, their impeccable team has chosen Villa La Commenda Concordia, nestled amidst the breathtaking scenery of Tuscany, where nature’s beauty holds an enchanting allure. Embracing sustainability, one of the key aspects of a modern wedding, involves creatively using improvised materials. Utilizing the venue’s gardens and abundant greenery can provide a stunning natural backdrop for your photos, ceremony, and reception, adding a touch of organic charm to your special day.
In our quest to align our editorial with our philosophy, we carefully selected the Cinq brand as the perfect match. Cinq captures the essence of vintage-inspired silhouettes with a touch of modernity.
The Cinq bride radiates a unique progressive nostalgia, blending vintage silhouettes with contemporary elements effortlessly. Each garment is a tribute to the past, gracefully poised for the future. With meticulous attention to detail, Cinq creates dresses that capture unforgettable moments, etching them into cherished memories for the bride.
As the first look, the bride wore the Colette drop waist duchess satin gown from Cinq. She paired it with shoes by Emmy London adorned with intricate hand-stitched tulle petals reminiscent of blossoms, adding delicacy and complementing a natural-inspired ambiance.
The bride showcased another Cinq’s attire – the Inez body-skimming duchess satin gown featuring a silk tulle skirt with broomstick pleats and horsehair trim for added volume.
Suppose you have a privately hired florist or a planner handling the décor and design for your wedding. In that case, it’s worth discussing with them how to incorporate more organic elements and minimalist arrangements and utilize plants from the wedding venue itself. This approach can help you avoid excessive spending on flowers while still achieving a stunning aesthetic. In our particular case, we collaborated with the incredibly talented The Flower.One, who brought extraordinary and unparalleled beauty to the entire shoot.
Envision the bride gracefully adorned in a breathtaking Cinq dress, enveloped by verdant greenery. The nature-inspired designs conjure an ethereal ambiance, seamlessly intertwining a passion for vintage fashion with a deep reverence for the environment.
Rather than splurging on extravagant floral arrangements, you can opt for more plant-centric wedding decor. This eco-friendly approach allows the venue to showcase nature’s inherent splendor, reducing the need for excessive flowers. By incorporating more greenery and potted plants, you can create a lush and natural ambiance that exudes elegance, a sense of calm, and serenity to the wedding space.
