In my last post I told you about my tree infatuation and my desire to incorporate them into our vineyard wedding without giving it an identity crisis. Well, as you may have guessed, I have more ideas of how to incorporate branches and trees into our wedding. In come branch/tree themed wedding invitations:
This one has a great earthy/artsy feel to it:

This one is reminiscent of spring, but with a color change to the leaves could easily relay fall:

These two have gorgeous full trees, which remind me of our engagement day.

This one features grapevines, which would tie in well to our theme:

And, here are some lovelies with cutie pie love birds perched on branches:

So what do you think? Can I “branch” out our wedding invites without giving our wedding identity issues? I am thinking YES! I love the idea and that it ties into our engagement story. (That, and I’ve already drawn and made a quick mock-up with a tree and a bench.)
Do your wedding invites match your wedding’s theme? What is your theme?
I’ve got the same identity crisis as you do - Tuscan winery them + all-consuming love of the woods = ??? We lucked out big time in finding a venue where our ceremony will take place in a grassy grove shaded by tons of huge old-growth trees, and the reception will be in the adjacent Tuscan-style winery. Yes, both at the same time! You can do it too, and these are completely lovely. (We spent some time pondering the line between branches and vines, and ended up just going with dahlia flowers; though there are some lovely branches on our STDs.) Part of me thinks that the distinction between the two is one of those details most people won’t even notice.
We got engaged under a beautiful Live Oak tree and I have been wanting to incorporate that into our invitations too. However, most of the ones that I have found seem to be a little bland in the way of color. I love your choices. I hope you find one that works for you two!
I loved that first one as well when I was looking for inspiration! I used a tree theme for my sister’s invitations though and didn’t want to do something too similar for my own. I love the trees though! Can’t wait to see what you do!
I love the tree idea, all those invites are so beautiful and natural 
So cute! I love that last one a lot! Can’t wait to see what you do with your invites!
We had bookmarked some of the same inspiration photos. We are doing a tree motif - LOVE it!
Oooh, I like the second one - I think you’re right about changing the leaves to a fall color. Instead of the leaves looking like the first to appear, they look like the last to hang on!
Bwahahahah I feel like such a trickster showing you all these ideas…because none of you know what I ended up doing (heck I didn’t even know until a month ago lol)
Yes! Do whatever you want. Honestly, it’s your wedding…and I don’t imagine your guests will walk in and say, “What the heck? Where the hell are the trees? I was promised trees!” Of course, I don’t know your guests…..
[...] I showed you my branched out-invite inspirations, I had mentioned that I had created my first invite prototype (pictured above). But as you know, [...]

Mrs. Locket, Ithaca, NY Age and Occupation: 25, Research Technician Fiance's Age and Occupation: 28, former Banker hoping to become an Officer of the Law Engagement Date: June 15, 2009 Wedding Date: September 2010 Venue: Heron Hill Winery About Me: I am a little bit of everything all rolled into one: A girly gal with rough edges---I love to get dolled up just as much as I enjoy throwing on some sneaks to toss a ball with Mr. Locket. My love for crafting and creating is quite apparent and I've been referred to as a Wonder Woman/Martha Stewart/Stepford Wife hybrid (yup, I'll take that as a compliment). I adore sewing, photography, sculpture, good eats (mmm tapas), baking, snugging and oh, pretty much everything in between (there's not much I dislike). I am super excited to be planning our vineyard wedding and couldn't be happier to be marrying Mr. Locket. We are a quirky, fun-loving couple residing in our college town with our two pups Maple and Molly. We love to go on hikes, visit our local dog park and to bask in the beauty of many of the local falls and gorges. We are an indecisive pair, but together we somehow manage to make up our minds (it's the easy stuff that's tricky).
