Different aspects and stages of a nuptial can be arranged in such a way that they do not contribute to greenhouse emissions in the environment, improve the carbon offset and make the most optimum use of scarce resources. Plus if at all there are any practises that green activists as being deteriorating for the environment, you can atone for it by making contributions to various NGOs and charities set up for the cause of protecting the environment.
Minimize the travelling and transportation to and from the wedding venue for yourself and your guests by selecting the same venue for the nuptial as well as the reception or both nearby to each other. While considering destination wedding options, selecting a destination which is on the other end of the civilization would only contribute adversely to the environment. Choose a place which is half-way between your majority guests and your family.

Yes, you guessed it right. Emailing the invitations is going to save a lot of paper. If the invitations are to be sent necessarily, then make use of recycled paper and bio-degradable ink. Include eco-friendly products and gifts in your bridal registry. Put up a website to let your guests know every information and notification in relation to your wedding. Use telecommunication services like short message service (SMS) or calls for those guests who do not have access to web.
You got to agree that in only two years from now, you will not be in a situation to fit in your bridal lehenga or dress you had splurged on so much. Not wearing the best on your wedding is not an option, but do opt for something that you can use later in life as well.
Grooms can try hire-rental services for their wedding tux. There are establishments that rent the best and designer wedding costumes and your guests will not even come to know about it.
Wastage is maximum in terms of food and drinks. Double check on your guests whether they are keen on attending the nuptial or will give it a skip at the last moment. Choose your guests wisely. Do not make an extra long guest list, inviting even the friend who you have not met after school is only lead to an increase in the expenses.
