What to consider when buying an eco-friendly wedding gift?
As conscious consumers I think it’s important to consider what the newly wed couple will use. Wedding registries can be super helpful in identifying what the couple needs for their home and what they will actually use.
The last thing we want is to create excess waste by purchasing unwanted items. The items in this guide are practical products that can be used around the house.
