as some of you know - i put together my invites last nite!! all in all it took about 2 hours between stuffing, sealing, labeling & re-checking the list!! not too bad huh?
so anyways - my LAST invite question for you all... how many stamps did you need to put on the outside envelope?? i'm an idiot and didnt consider that it may be heavier & need more then one stamp - so i have all these extra stamps... but i was just curious before i went to the post office how many stamps other ppl needed
TIA!!

Re: stamp question
I just brought an invitaiton to the PO to have it weighed. Then I bought special stamps made for heavier (wedding) envelopes, I think they're 58 cent stamps. Very pretty too!

Re: stamp question
I am bringing my invitation to be weighed before we buy stamps. i know that when i was getting the postage for my save the dates the lady asked if i had one with me. she weighed it and looked at the shape of the envelope. if it is a square envelope it costs more than 58 cents to mail.

Re: stamp question
mine are going out March 8, the envelopes are rectangles, I was surprised that regular stamps weren't enough bc mine aren't really heavy!

we just put them together last night & i was planning on sending them out within the next couple of weeks. i know its a little early - i'm trying to avoid making phone calls to get ppls RSVPs & we dont have a few addresses so i didnt want to wait until the last minute to be rushing around getting those addresses
i'm just really mad b/c i spent like $90 on 11 books of stamps b/c i didnt even think that they were going to cost more!! do you think i should just put 2 stamps on some & then buy the 58 cent ones for the rest???

Re: stamp question
You have to have it weighed. We were just over the 58c mark and had to put 2 41 cent stamps on!!
