The problem is that Indian weddings often generate massive amounts of plastic and food waste, with thousands of bottles and kilos of leftovers discarded. The solution was a "nature-first" 400-guest wedding in Bhubaneswar that used bamboo decor, seed-paper invites, and a curated traditional menu to cut waste. The benefit to people is a beautiful, budget-friendly celebration that supports local artisans and proves high-end traditions can exist without harming the planet.
