There are many perks of selecting a park as your party's location. First of all, you are close to nature. Secondly, you do not have to put extra effort into the party decoration because nature will be at its best possible service.

Carpooling is not just for celebrities
People often think that carpooling makes you look cheap. No, that is not true. If anything, they make you look sustainable and sensible. Carpooling does not only save your money but also is a great way of reducing your carbon footprint.

Green Confetti
Confetti is essential for any party. They are the best and most essential part of any celebration. Parties are often considered to be dull and lifeless without this confetti. But confetti is nothing but plastic.
A simple and impeccable way to handle this issue is the use of biodegradable confetti. You can just visit your backyard and collect some leaves from there. Punch holes in them. Make a confetti cone with the help of an old book or colorful paper. Try to be as creative as you can. Make a new trend and play a part in creating an impressive impact.
Go earth-friendly on the food side
Any party is incomplete without your favorite cake, desserts, snacks, and drinks. But food and disposable utensils or cutlery contribute a major chunk to waste after the party is over. Be eco-smart and follow these steps to make your dining tables earth-friendly as well:
Shop local grocery stores for fresh fruits and vegetables. This will reduce your carbon footprint.
Cut out your waste by swapping single-use plastic tableware with biodegradable tableware.
Bulk buy and mix treats like dried fruits, popcorns, chocolate chips in washable/reusable bowls.
Cut down unnecessary plasticware or tableware by choosing finger foods like cut veggies, fruit lollies, mini sandwiches, brownie squares, muffins, cupcakes, etc.
Replace juice boxes with a drink dispenser or jugs.
Keep the compost bin and recycle bin at hand to raise awareness about waste management among your guests.
Simplicity is the key
There is no reason for you to go overboard and rent expensive machines such as karaoke. Try to stay as simple but fun. You can play musical chairs with your guests. That can be an exciting way to engage people in fun activities and to avoid boredom.
Also, do not trouble yourself with the complex decors that involve a huge sum of money and a lot of plastic. That is a big no-no.
You can be a fun host even by playing childhood games with your friends. be as simple as you can and reminisce about the taste of old tales.
Final Takeaway
Eco-friendly parties are not just a part of the latest trends but are also inevitable for your environment. It is the foremost duty of us all to make sure that our earth is not suffering because of our selfish deeds. The time to take action is now or never.
Furthermore, you should not forget the importance of simple steps and their meaningful impact. Try these aforementioned ways and enjoy the benefits of a party that is both sustainable and eco-friendly.
