Separate the decor into five categories: donate, trash, recycle, reuse, compost, and resell. The best way to minimize waste is to divert as much from the landfill as possible. This means sorting through all of the items thoroughly.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Compost\"><\/span>Compost:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17591\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-10-21T152945.198.jpg\" alt=\"event decor succulent take home\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-10-21T152945.198.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-10-21T152945.198-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We give priority to composting over recycling. Many venues and caterers already have composting services in place (you\u2019ll have to ask about this ahead of time, though). Plus, you never know not all the items you toss into the recycling end up being recycled. Once it arrives at the recycling center, it could be mixed with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rubiconglobal.com\/blog\/recycling-contamination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recycling contaminates<\/a> that could send the entire haul to the landfill!<\/p>\n<p>Items such as napkins and flowers are biodegradable. But you should still compost them to ensure they fully break down. Speak with your florist, they may be able to refer you to great recycling and composting programs in your city. Otherwise, you can reach out to commercial compost services. They will be equipped to handle a large amount of organic waste and convert it into fertilizer for local farms.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reuse\"><\/span>Reuse:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Decorate your home! Some wedding planners recommend purchasing items that work with both the wedding theme and home decor scheme. Items such as wedding signage, tableware, display boards, and fairy lights can be easily integrated into your home decor.<\/p>\n<p>Other items such as lanterns look great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcdesignschool.com\/2019\/10\/exterior-decorating-trends-balcony-porch-deck\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">decorating back patios and decks<\/a>.

But there is often a limit to how much these avenues can accept. Consider donating unused stationery and crafting items such as tulle or ribbons to schools or after-school programs.<\/p>\n<p>For flowers that still look good enough to use, you could partner with flower repurposing programs. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.repeatroses.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Repeat Roses<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rebloomflowers.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ReBLOOM<\/a> (Canada) are great options for those who want to do both\u2014donate and compost! Both these organizations collect your flowers, upcycles them to new arrangements, and donates them to non-profits\/charities in your name. These sites include nursing and retirement homes, hospitals, and homeless shelters. Once they\u2019ve wilted and started to die, they will revisit these same sites to recollect the flowers to compost and donate the soil to farmers, gardeners, and landscapers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Recycle\"><\/span>Recycle:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You probably didn\u2019t use plastic cups and cutlery at your event.

You can actually recycle half-used candles and reuse them in your home! Who doesn\u2019t love the warm glow and ambiance of flickering candles? Jar candles can be used until the wick burns out. From there, pour boiling water into the jar up to the lip of the container. Then wait. The wax will melt and slowly bubble up to the top and re-solidify. Once it\u2019s all dry, you\u2019ll have a hard disk of wax you can easily remove and re-melt to create new candles!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sell_it\"><\/span>Sell it:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17594\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-10-21T153822.582.jpg\" alt=\"event decor briefcase\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-10-21T153822.582.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-10-21T153822.582-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Selling your items can seem daunting if you have truckloads of items.

Another option is to sell your items at a bridal flea market such as <a href=\"http:\/\/bridalswap.com\/brides-selling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bridal Swap<\/a>. You could register for a table to display all your bespoke goodies. You\u2019ll need to pay a small fee to rent a table, but the market\u2019s organizers will take care of all the advertising!<\/p>\n<p>For online options, check out eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and your local classifieds. You can also compare your items with ones listed by other users. Are your prices competitive? Many couples list their resale items too ambitiously, hoping to recuperate costs.

If you\u2019re an event planner, you\u2019ll have to deal with decor waste time and time again if your client insists on purchasing everything for a one-time event. Instead, you should advise them on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/2018\/03\/guide-event-decor-rent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">benefits of renting event decor<\/a>.

Reception table centerpieces, especially fresh flowers, can brighten up a home. Plus, it\u2019s a great way to get the most use out of them before they start to wilt. Make sure they only take the flowers if you\u2019ve rented the vases from the florist!<\/p>\n<h3>Plan ahead<\/h3>\n<p>Collaborate with your vendors to plan ahead. Have systems in place to deal with the food and decor waste so everything is swiftly taken care of after the big event. Some venues, for instance, could have extensive recycling services. Some catering companies may have agreements with local food banks and community kitchens to donate leftover food.
