Summers in Sun Valley, Idaho are a beautiful and magical time to visit, vacation and live in the Wood River Valley. The Big Wood River is flowing down from the Sawtooth Mountains and the hillsides are varying shades of green with wild flora and fauna. This beautiful landscape along with the thriving communities and top-notch catering and event services available make this a popular wedding and private event destination. Over the years we have been part of hundreds of special celebrations and gatherings in Ketchum, Hailey and beyond.
The topic of sustainability is the core of who we are. Rasberrys truly believes in being local and organic and sustainable whenever and wherever possible. Earth Day is everyday for us and we love to share with and collaborate on these practices with clients and businesses - as well as events.
Here are a few ways your next Sun Valley event can be sustainable:
Marry or gather in the great outdoors - Sun Valley has endless daylight in summer
Look for built-in decor and backdrops - think scenic backdrops, backyards, parks and botanical gardens
Bouquets & Flowers - seasonal blooms, grown locally and potted plants
Confetti - dried petals or leaves, fresh blooms, vintage bells
Opt for sustainable meals - Local, sustainable and seasonally sourced menus
Food waste - plated meals rather than buffets, caterers who compost waste
Welcome bags - locally sourced goods and products
Wedding registry - choose charities
Rentals - rent, not buy one-time use items
Vendors - book local vendors to minimize travel
Travel - group transport when possible
