Lucky for you, Argentina is packed with eco-friendly wedding venues, local vendors who embrace sustainability, and jaw-dropping landscapes that require zero extra decoration.
Whether you’re dreaming of a vineyard wedding, a Patagonia elopement, or a countryside celebration, this guide will help you plan a stunning, sustainable wedding in Argentina.
Choosing a Sustainable Wedding Venue in Argentina
Not all venues are created equal when it comes to sustainability. Here are a few that truly stand out:
🍷 Bodega Renacer (Mendoza) – A Vineyard Wedding with a Green Twist
Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by endless vineyards, with the Andes Mountains standing tall in the background. Bodega Renacer is not only stunning but also committed to sustainability. They use solar energy, organic farming techniques, and even recycle rainwater for irrigation.

🏡 Estancia Villa María (Buenos Aires) – Historic Charm Meets Sustainability

🏔️ El Chaltén (Patagonia) – A Wild & Intimate Elopement Spot
If you’re the adventurous type, why not elope in Patagonia? El Chaltén is an untouched paradise where you can say your vows with Mount Fitz Roy as your backdrop. Keep it simple with a locally crafted bouquet, a sustainable wedding dress, and a photographer (like me!) to capture the magic.

Eco-Friendly Wedding Ideas to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
Saying “I do” doesn’t have to mean saying “I waste.” Here are some tips to make your wedding as green as possible:
📜 Go Digital with Invitations
Why kill trees when you can send a beautifully designed e-invite? If you still want something physical, opt for recycled paper or even plantable invitations (yes, your guests can plant them, and flowers will grow!).
👗 Sustainable Wedding Attire
Your dress doesn’t have to be a one-time thing!
- Buy a second-hand or vintage wedding dress (bonus: vintage = timeless).
- Choose Argentine designers who use organic fabrics.
- Ditch fast fashion—opt for a suit or dress you’ll actually re-wear.
🌿 Eco-Friendly Wedding Decor
- Swap plastic decor for potted plants that guests can take home.
- Use seasonal, local flowers (skip imported roses—go for native blooms).
- Repurpose ceremony florals for the reception.
🍷 Sustainable Catering & Drinks
- Serve organic, locally sourced food (think grass-fed Argentine beef, fresh veggies, and local cheeses).
- Skip plastic cups—go for glassware or compostable options.
- Offer wine from sustainable Argentine wineries (like Bodega Renacer!).
The Best Time for an Eco-Friendly Wedding in Argentina
Want the best weather and the lowest environmental impact? Consider these tips:
🌸 Spring (September–November) – Everything is in bloom, and you can use seasonal flowers for a fresh, natural vibe.
☀️ Summer (December–February) – Warm weather = more outdoor weddings = less energy spent on lighting & heating.
🍂 Fall (March–May) – Stunning vineyard colors and mild temperatures make it a perfect choice.
❄️ Winter (June–August) – Patagonia elopements are magical in the snow, but avoid high-energy heating venues.
