At Favorly, we believe that celebrating should never come at the planet’s expense. That’s why we’ve gathered some of our favorite tips to help you throw a party that’s joyful, memorable, and kind to the earth.

Thoughtful Invitations
Skip the paper waste. Choose digital invites or recycled-paper cards without glitter or lamination.
Sustainable Tableware
Say goodbye to single-use plastics. Use compostable plates and cups or better yet—real dishes and cloth napkins for a touch of class. (PS - Favorly will stock these soon!!)
Meaningful Favors
Ditch the plastic toys. Choose reusable gifts like personalized T-shirts, tote bags, or seed kits—favors that last and leave a positive impact.
Conscious Decor
No balloons? No problem. Try fabric bunting, dried flowers, paper garlands, or solar-powered fairy lights. Beautiful and biodegradable.
Low-Waste Food & Drink
Choose local and seasonal goodies. Offer water in jugs instead of bottled water. Buy in bulk to cut down on packaging.
Smart Waste Sorting
Set up clearly labeled bins for compost, recycling, and trash. Encourage guests to bring containers for leftovers or take some home.
Green Activities
Crafts with recycled materials, planting seeds, or outdoor games are fun and eco-friendly. Who says sustainability can’t be exciting?
Greener Gifting
Consider “no gift” parties, secondhand presents, or group experiences. Wrap gifts in fabric, newspaper, or reusable bags.
