Eco-Friendly Wedding Ideas at Allegro

At Allegro, we believe that celebrating love doesn’t have to come at the expense of the planet. Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, our venue is surrounded by natural beauty—and we’re passionate about helping couples plan weddings that honor that landscape. From sustainable décor to supporting local vendors, there are countless ways to make your wedding both stunning and eco-conscious.

1. Rethink Your Décor

One of the easiest ways to go green is by reusing and repurposing décor. Allegro’s in-house décor catalog offers elegant options like glass vases, lanterns, and signage that can be styled in multiple ways. By choosing items already available at the venue, you’ll reduce waste and cut down on shipping or rental costs. Plus, timeless pieces can be used again and again without compromising your vision.

2. Support Local Vendors

Keeping your vendor team close to home is not only convenient—it’s eco-friendly. Working with local florists, caterers, and musicians cuts down on transportation emissions and supports small businesses right here in Dripping Springs. Many Hill Country vendors also prioritize sustainable practices, from sourcing farm-to-table menus to offering seasonal blooms.

3. Opt for Green Practices

Small swaps can make a big difference:

• Digital Invitations: Go paperless with chic e-invites or wedding websites.

• Reusable or Compostable Dinnerware: Many catering partners offer eco-friendly dining options.

• Eco-Conscious Favors: Think seed packets, reusable drinkware, or donations in guests’ honor instead of single-use trinkets.

4. Make Use of Allegro’s Natural Beauty

With five-mile views, lush live oaks, and open skies, Allegro provides a breathtaking backdrop that requires little extra décor. Couples often find they can keep it simple—letting nature do the heavy lifting and reducing the need for additional flowers, props, or rentals.

5. Extend the Celebration

Hosting your wedding weekend at Allegro—with on-site lodging for up to 17 guests—means fewer cars on the road and less need for extra transportation. It’s a sustainable way to keep everyone close, while enjoying more time together.

At Allegro, sustainability and celebration go hand in hand. With thoughtful choices, you can host a wedding that reflects both your love story and your values—leaving lasting memories without leaving a heavy footprint.
