Go green never looked this good!

Banana leaves are BFFs, especially in South Indian weddings where banana leaves are one of the most eco-friendly and sustainable substitutes for wedding lunches and dinners! Their lush green colour reflects so well against the colourful food.

But now, banana leaves have upped their game and entered the wedding décor space! From lovely plates to place cards, they are everywhere and we are loving it!

Oh boy, we love this one! 

We love the fact that its solid colour allows for any other colour to pop so vibrantly against it. Along with that, they are eco-friendly, easy-to-source and super sustainable. So if you are looking to add an eco-friendly touch to your wedding without compromising on the prettiness factor, look out for banana leaves!
