Why Book Sustainable Events Collective vendors?
We're not just a directory—we're a community of sustainable business owners making eco-conscious events the norm, not the exception, while spotlighting local Chicago businesses in the process.
Every vendor has been rigorously vetted to ensure they meet our sustainability standards for waste reduction, responsible sourcing, and lower-impact practices.
The result? Celebrations that look amazing without a lasting environmental impact.

The Sustainable Events Collective exists because planning a green event shouldn't mean doing it alone or settling for less. Since 2012, we've operated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, building a community where quality and sustainability go hand-in-hand.
