I like the new 44 cent Love stamps but they are only 44 cents and not 61. So to use these I would need to add various configurations of the following, which are all very nice, but I don't know how WELL they go with the king and queen of hearts.
The 17 cent stamp is so blah, I don't even want to look at it.
Why not the 61 cent wedding stamp, you may ask? Because, look:
Gahhh!!
I think I'd rather use the other 61 cent stamp, even though I don't know who Richard Wright is.
As a final option, there's design-your-own-postage or pay 1 cent per invite extra (so, like, $1.50 total) for the 62 cent stamp
which is bland but at least not horrifying like that cake. Of course, you're talking to someone who stood in a crazy line so as to avoid paying 2 cents extra per stamp come May 11, so I don't know if either of those options are viable.
I looked up Richard Wright and he was a writer, which might fit in well with our secret theme. Hmm.
I'm sure you all can't believe I just wrote a post about stamps. I write about this stuff here to save Chris's ears from bleeding. Trust me, you have no idea how much I actually hold myself back. My sister could tell you.

i forgot about the stamps going up again. guess i'm going to have to buy a million two centers.
sorry, but i don't really know what to tell you about what you should use, though. (but i do agree that the wedding one is ugh!)
READ Richard Wright - he's great.
No opinion on the stamps issue - all of your ideas are great and I agree that the cake stamp is horrible.
So, in short, this means we are all about to get mail from you? I LOVE getting mail, especially from fabulous people. Sorry for all the drama at the PO, just think how excited everyone is going to be to receive your notes! xoxo
When I went to go get our stamps the oblivious male behind the counter told me the only stamp I could use was the one with the goat. I seriously almost started crying. I had just spent hours putting my invites together and paid for some beautiful calligraphy. It was all going to be ruined by that damned goat stamp. Luckily a female postal worker overheard what was going down and rifled through the backroom to get me the proper heart stamps. So I totally understand your stamp dilemma. Those things are surprisingly important!
I love talking about stamps. I approve this post.
Stamps are fabulous. Nothing wrong with a postage stamp post. My ears are not *even* bleeding.
