Abstract/Summary
Green with Envy Events is a sustainable event planning company based out of San Diego, California. This company was used when conducting a case study examining sustainable wedding practices. The research was gathered using internet research, academic journals, and information from the Green with Envy Events website. The company demographics were examined and the company’s sustainable practices were analyzed by comparing various aspects to a complete checklist. It was found that there are numerous sustainable materials and services that can be used, that sustainable materials and services are a better option than non-sustainable materials and services, and that the company utilizes these practices in all of their events. Green with Envy Events is an excellent example of a sustainable events company. Recommendations include updating the website, including more photos of sustainable examples, and becoming more active on social media sites.
