SUSTAINABILTY

There's no reason your Wedding should cost the earth

At Firelight Tipi Events we are committed to putting sustainability at the heart of everything that we do in pursuit of having a positive impact on the world around us. 

​

In the near future it is our aim to be able to offer a complete Carbon Neutral Events package. Until we reach that point in our journey, here's what we are up to...

ENVIRONMENTALLY

  • ELECTRIC VEHICLES - We commit to undertaking our site visits in electric vehicles where access permits. Unfortunately the Electric Pick-up market hasn't quite caught up but it's coming soon and we'll be ready and waiting when it does. Until then we are reviewing options of Diesel alternative fuels and making sure we are as efficient as possible with our journeys.

  • SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS - Our Tipis are manufactured here in the UK using sustainably sourced materials.

  • ZERO PAPER - All of our correspondence and documentation will be provided to you electronically to save it being lost and avoiding unnecessary printing.

  • ETHICAL CLOTHING -All of our workwear is made using ethically sourced, sustainable materials and natural dyes.

  • CARBON OFFSETTING - We are reviewing a number of organisations to partner with to offset our carbon production.

ECONOMICALLY

  • TRANSPARENT PRICING - We recognise that the cost of putting on your dream event can quickly grow legs and run away with you. We've been there too, don't worry. It is our goal to not only offer you great value for money on a venue that all your guest will remember but to offer you a price that is transparent from day one so that you don't end up with a list of essentials that are priced up as extras.
  • FAIR PAY - As a minimum, we are are committed to paying our team above the National Living Wage, regardless of age. It's critical to us that our team feels how valued they are.

SOCIALLY

  • GIVING BACK - Each year we will set aside one event in our diary to provide one of our gorgeous set ups to a local charity completely free of charge. Do you have a charity close to your heart that would benefit from our wonderful Tipis? Tell us why HERE. The team will review all submissions and pick one worthy entry to partner with on an event.
  • SUPPORT LOCALS - Our glorious corner of the country has some of the best suppliers in the land. We would love to work with you to help you get the very best out of what is on offer on the doorstep of your chosen location.
