As couples become more conscious of their environmental impact, eco-friendly wedding invitations are becoming a popular choice. If you’re planning a Danish wedding with sustainability in mind, there are plenty of stylish and ethical options available. From recycled paper to plantable invitations, here’s how to make your wedding stationery both beautiful and earth-friendly.
1. Recycled Paper Invitations
One of the easiest ways to reduce waste is by choosing recycled or upcycled paper for your invitations. Consider:
- 100% recycled cardstock for a rustic, organic look
- Handmade paper with dried flowers for an elegant touch
- Minimalist designs that use less ink for a cleaner aesthetic
Bonus Tip: Opt for soy-based or plant-based ink instead of chemical-heavy printing.
2. Plantable Seed Paper Invitations
Give your guests an invitation they can plant and grow! 
These biodegradable invites are embedded with wildflower, herb, or tree seeds—once planted, they bloom into something beautiful.
Popular options include:
- Wildflower seed invitations for a romantic, natural touch
- Herb-seeded paper (basil, thyme, or mint) for a practical and fresh-smelling option
- Tree-seed invitations to symbolize your growing love
3. Digital Wedding Invitations
For the most sustainable option, go completely paperless! Digital wedding invitations help reduce waste while offering modern, stylish features. Options include:
- Interactive e-invites with animated designs
- Wedding websites where guests can RSVP online
- QR code invites linked to your wedding details
Pro Tip: Websites like Greenvelope or Paperless Post offer elegant and eco-friendly digital invitations.
4. Sustainable Printing & Packaging
If you prefer traditional paper invitations, ensure the printing and packaging are sustainable:
- FSC-certified paper guarantees responsible sourcing
- Vegan ink & water-based coatings reduce environmental impact
- Plastic-free envelopes & packaging help minimize waste
5. Support Local & Ethical Stationery Designers
Denmark is home to talented eco-conscious designers who create handmade, sustainable invitations. Look for:
- Locally sourced materials to support small businesses
- Zero-waste packaging or carbon-neutral shipping
- Custom calligraphy on sustainable paper for a personal touch
