Re: OMGGGG

if it's RSVP's, is your return address on them? Worst case scenario is they will return to sender for additional postage.. which is technically you because your address will be the one on the envelope. Otherwise if guests put their own return label on it they'll prob notice the postage and add 2 cents.. I think you'll be fine

I mailed an RSVP today for a friend's wedding that is on the same day as mine and noticed he had only put a 42 cent stamp on so I added two single cent stamps to it. I'm sure it isn't the first he's going to get back that way.

People will probably notice and put the extra postage on. It's just a courtesy you put any on in the first place!

How many guests do you have? If it's really a major concern, could you call them all? Or have your BP call them all and spread the word about the stamps? That way you are at peace of mind at least.

You could always put a 2 cent stamp with each of their favors in order to turn this into a humorous situation! (lol)

Re: OMGGGG

oh crap that stinks!
hopefully you get most of them back
but not everyone responds as it is, so calls have to be made anyway- sorry you have to go through this though!!! try not to stress it, hopefully it works out!

Re: OMGGGG

I did the same thing! My Mom went to the post office to alert them and they said there is a bit of a grace period and after that, they will hold the rsvp's and we can go pay the additional postage and pick them up. We also alerted our letter carrier.

Re: OMGGGG

the post office usually gives a grace period for the .42 stamps. so you should be fine. i'd talk to your local po and make sure.

Re: OMGGGG

giiiirl.... people have been posting reminders on here like every other day!!!

That's a bummer!!! I'd just apologize and ask people to please add a 2cent stamp. I think people should be able to swing it.

But wouldn't they get rejected at the local post offices of the guests?
