Weddings are such joyous occasions, and it’s so fun when a bride makes sure every detail is what she had envisioned. But the sad truth is weddings generate a ton of waste. Huffington Post reports 400 to 600 pounds of garbage per wedding.
Jennifer Grove, a former event planner, has decided to change this large amount of waste after seeing all the beautiful flowers tossed in the trash after each wedding. Jennifer started her company, Repeat Roses, who arranges to pick up the leftover arrangements and donates them to nursing homes, hospitals, and other places where they’ll bring people as much joy as the bride had the previous day(s). The service is available nationwide. Repurpose your wedding or event flowers to bring kindness to those in your local community.
