Wedding is one of the most important and beautiful days in the life of every couple. This, so significant moment for lovers, requires a lot of planning, preparation and of course - budget. The biggest investment is for festive decorations. Decorations for a wedding include flowers, balloons, tablecloths, candles, lighting and other details that add atmosphere and style to the celebration.
One possible approach to make your wedding day more original and humane is to combine wedding decorations with charity. This will mean that instead of buying or renting expensive, disposable items for decoration, you can use ones to give away or sell after the celebration. A good option is to use some of the proceeds to help disadvantaged people or donate funds to support a socially important cause.

Other possible solutions are more:
Live flowers
Using live flowers as decorations for a wedding allows you to give them away to sick, old or needy people after the wedding reception. They will be delighted with their beauty and fragrance.
Themed decoration
Using themed items for wedding decorations related to a good cause are an expression of your commitment and support. By doing so, you draw your guests' attention to an issue, inform them and motivate them to get involved as well.
Wedding decorations made from recycled, natural or biodegradable materials
You can easily choose wedding decoration items that are made from recycled, natural or biodegradable materials. They do not pollute the environment, do not create excess and are sometimes many times cheaper. This will reduce your costs, contribute to preserving the planet and share your eco-friendly attitude with your guests.
Items made by disadvantaged people
Another good concept is to choose for decoration items that are handmade by disadvantaged people who often need work and income. This way you will support their social inclusion and give them a chance to showcase their talents and skills.
Without wedding decorations
The wedding reception itself can be done well without wedding decorations. It's all up to you and your intentions. In this way you will make your wedding day not only beautiful but also useful, you will show your care and solidarity towards society and the environment. You can donate the money saved from decoration or organize a charity campaign to support disadvantaged people.
Disadvantaged people face different types of social, economic, health or other problems. They include people with disabilities, the long-term unemployed, refugees, Roma, victims of violence, alcohol or drug addicts, the homeless and others.
Disadvantaged people do not have equal opportunities to participate and prosper in society. Their situation is also due to various factors beyond their control. Disadvantaged people are at risk of poverty, discrimination, violence as well as social exclusion. They need support from both the state and us, the public. Their problems limit their ability to participate fully in social life.
