Tying the Knot with Mother Nature: Exploring Living Wedding Altars in Costa Rica's Breathtaking Settings with Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings

Discovering new traditions while honoring our planet is the epitome of modern weddings. Destination weddings in Costa Rica, particularly in the picturesque region of La Fortuna and the Arenal Volcano, are embracing this sustainable trend, helping couples to craft unforgettable memories without the environmental impact. Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings, a renowned wedding planner in the region, is at the forefront of this transformation, pioneering the use of living altars.

Living altars, for those, like me, who had not heard of them before, are altars for weddings and activities that intertwine nature with ceremonies. Instead of using cut flowers, which often contribute to substantial waste, living altars incorporate potted plants, local flora, and even trees and shrubs. They are not just eye-catching but in the case of weddings, for example, they allow couples to incorporate a touch of Costa Rica's verdant biodiversity into their wedding backdrop.

Weddings in Costa Rica, especially in La Fortuna, are recognized for their breathtaking settings—imagine exchanging vows with the majestic Arenal Volcano as your backdrop or pledging your forever love amid the pristine rainforests. By incorporating living altars into these settings, Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings ensures that the magic of these environments is captured and preserved in a sustainable manner.

For quite some time now, Tui Frye, owner of Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings has organized the donation of cut flowers to local organizations, such as the local clinic, doctor’s offices, schools, activities for the elderly community and the fire department. Now Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings is enhancing this heartfelt tradition with living altars. Instead of the transient beauty of cut flowers, couples can donate long-lasting potted plants to our local schools, hospitals, or public spaces. This act of love not only adds another layer to the event but also contributes to the beautification and preservation of the local community here in La Fortuna.

Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings also encourages the use of native species in these altars, supporting local nurseries and fostering biodiversity. This approach offers a rich palette of colors and textures for couples, capturing the true essence of a destination wedding in Costa Rica.

Sustainable weddings are more than just a trend, they're a statement of a couple's commitment to the planet. Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings transforms this commitment into a breathtaking reality here in the Arenal area, one living altar at a time.

As you start planning your destination wedding in Costa Rica, consider the profound impact a living altar could have, not just on your special day, but on the community and environment as well.

Experience the magic of a sustainable wedding with the stunning vistas of La Fortuna and the Arenal Volcano and the expertise of Blue Butterfly Events & Weddings. Say 'I do' to your loved one, and say 'I do' to a greener future. We like to say, when love meets sustainability, every moment blooms into a cherished memory!
