Caitlin & Andrew were married in Gettysburg Pennsylvania.  The invitation design stemmed from the historic relevance of Gettysburg. The battlefields are lined with wood fences that are unique to the area and the tree graphic was actually derived from an image of a witness tree (a tree that was witness to the civil war battles and is still standing today). The save the dates were flat printed on wooden postcards and this type of postcard made an appearance as the RSVP piece of the invitation set.  For the primary invitations we letterpress 3 pieces in turquoise and brown ink onto thick cotton paper.  The set included a map of Gettysburg and a pocket for the wooden RSVP. Coordinating fabric strips strung the three pieces together.  They were each packaged into kraft envelopes with a matching address label.  The rehearsal dinner invite was printed and backed with fabric.
