A Zero-Waste Collaboration
Dr Poorvi Bhat and Shamanth’s wedding in Shivamogga, Karnataka, serves as a remarkable example of sustainability in modern celebrations.
The couple prioritized an eco-friendly, zero-waste approach, meticulously planning every aspect to minimize environmental impact. Their wedding venue was a farm, where they constructed a unique wedding pavilion from sugarcane, which was later repurposed as cattle feed. Decorations were locally sourced and fully compostable, reducing waste and supporting local artisans.
Expectations from the collaborators: They significantly reduced food waste by composting leftovers and feeding them to animals on the farm.
Incentives: The couple’s commitment extended to dining arrangements, using reusable steel cutlery and banana leaf plates, which were composted after use.
