Fresh cut flowers make for stunning floral arrangements, but here’s an alternative that you may want to consider: potted plants! Not only are potted plants eco-friendly and a great way to lower your weddings’ carbon footprint, but they can easily double as keepsakes for you and your guests. It’s a win-win. There’s tons of ways to incorporate planters, from hanging displays to houseplant centerpieces on raised pillars we rounded up some of our favorite ways to use potted plants in your wedding decor.
