The duo has been vocal on various platforms and occasions talking about the conservation of the environment. So naturally, the couple took a pledge to wed in a way that doesn’t leave environmentally toxic traces after. The couple has jointly decided to put in efforts with the help of their teams who are planning their wedding to make all the events eco-friendly.
In simple terms, this means that small efforts here and there like including decor using natural elements recycled or repurposed wood and sustainable items are going to be put in place. Richa and Ali are also focusing on reducing food wastage at all of their wedding functions by curating food experiences that are more sustainable and have hired experts who can help them in doing so.
The teams across have been briefed to minimise plastic waste and use recyclable plastic during the functions. On Wednesday, a picture of the couple’s wedding invite went viral. The wedding invite features a kitschy rendition of both Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal riding bicycles. The invite is designed in the shape of a matchbox and the text printed on it reads “Couple Matches.” The duo’s friend Puneet Gupta has designed the invite.
Puneet Gupta, Richa and Ali’s friend who designed the card said, “The Save the date is about celebrating being an 80’s kid and taking inspiration from Vintage Indian poster art. It is also kind of interesting to do a very different and quirky take on the couple along with a retro twist and a touch of Bollywood.”
Richa and Ali are expected to get married on October 4 in Mumbai.
