| ECO-Stewardship is for All |
savvySustainability™ is our corporate formula and pledge to do
all that we can to create events that are eco-healthy,
environmentally responsible and with as little impact on the
planet as possible--- without sacrificing the client's vision and
while still bringing it to life.
Since our launch in 2004, savvyplanners.com has been
extremely concerned about the effect our client's events had
on our environment.
After trying for more than a year to earn or locate an
Eco-Certification especially for Wedding and Event planners,
savvySustainability™ was born.

| What it All Means? |
| Our Own Daily Personal Actions |
Our internal initiatives and practices, which led to the creation of
savvySustainability™, have consisted, in part, of the following:
savvySustainability™, have consisted, in part, of the following:
- Conducting the majority of our daily business digitally,
where and whenever possible (via telephone, fax and e-
mail). - Limiting snail-mail correspondence and mailings.
- Minimizing our face to face meetings with clients to
reduce their expenditure of funds, fuels, time and
vehicular emissions while, actively, using other effective
methods to provide samples and ideas. - Reducing our international and domestic flights to an
absolute minimum by developing satellite office teams
around the world. - When clients need to travel, we do everything possible
to help provide them with greener alternatives, ideas
and routings through which we attempt to reduce the
impact of their needs globally. - Relying on other modes of transportation that are
"greener" when we absolutely must travel, such as
carpooling. - Providing eco-friendly recommendations and
information to clients. - Going predominantly "paperless'" in our offices and
transactions. - Encouraging our vendors to select thoughtfully and/or
sustainably harvested products and reclaimed materials. - When forced to source items from outside the U.S. for a
client, in every case, we attempt to verify fair trade
supplier standards as set forth by the International
Federation of Alternative Trade (IFAT) - Recycling printing errors into note pads.
- Recycling all paper, cardboard, glass, plastic, metal and
our shredder contents. - Using local and "in-season" florals and ingredients
AND/OR using sustainably harvested flowers and
produce for specific client demands.
