Southern Charm Invitations
Casey and Andrew met while studying abroad, independently in Spain. After returning back to the University of Tennessee they continued to date and travel together. On the Fourth of July, Casey and Andrew tied the knot in Charleston, South Carolina. It was a true destination wedding that offered a weekend full of fun gatherings for all the out of town guests. Fourth Year Studio provided event design and advice throughout the planning process and was onsite for the weekend as event coordinators.
Of course, the most fun we had was with their invitation design. It paid tribute to historic Charleston while reflecting the glamour of the bride’s style. Each event had a spot on the rsvp postcard to indicate which event the guest was planning to attend. Four – two color letterpress pages were sewn together with a thin cotton fabric cover. Casey & Andrew’s names were layered on a letterpress live oak image. The live oak is a traditional low country icon and can be found throughout the city. Gray and coral tones complimented each other nicely and were tied together by the coral thread that held all four pieces together. The last page was the perforated reply postcard. Several of their guests loved the invitation so much they declined to tear off and mail back the rsvp but instead called in with their reply.
