- Invitations: Send email, use a free email invite service or setup a web site instead of sending paper. If you are using paper for invites or handouts, use recycled paper.
- Avoid food waste: Ask your guests to RSVP so you order appropriate amount of food based on the number of guests you expect.
- When china and stainless are not possible, order bio-degradable or compostable dinnerware. (This is standard on all Picnic Time Productions events.)
- Order your beverages and condiments in bulk instead of individually packaged.
- Use cloth napkins and tablecloths.
- Use plants or re-usable items for decor vs. cut flowers.
- If budget allows, go organic. The short term cost of organic is more expensive but saves more (the planet) in the long term.
- Encourage guests to car pool or take public transportation to your event.
- Recycle. (This is standard procedure on all Picnic Time Productions events.)
- Donate leftover food to a shelter. (This is standard procedure on all Picnic Time Productions events)
