Green wedding invitations

September 12, 2007 by Jenni 

lauraian.pngCouples are increasingly concerned about environmental factors when planning their weddings. Lunalux addresses these concerns by offering recycled paper options to clients, and suggesting lower-waste variations like RSVP postcards rather than RSVP cards with envelopes.

For Laura and Ian, who are planning an intimate wedding at their own home, low environmental impact is high priority. I worked with them to develop a simple, creative invitation. It’s just one piece, a 5.5 by 8.5-inch card perforated in the middle to fold to 4.25 by 5.5 inches; the top half is the invitation, the bottom half is the response card. The invitations were folded and taped closed, mailed without an envelope. Guests just tear the invitation in half, save the invitation, and return the RSVP postcard. We printed on 100% recycled French Paper, a small Michigan paper mill that is not only a pioneer in the recycled-paper industry, but has a long history of earth-friendly practices.

    Hello –
    I’m interested in a perforated wedding invite (preferably recycled). Can I get pricing and options for qty 100. Thank you! Jill
