I love the pretty vintage stamps we used on our wedding invitation envelopes so much.

The Mississippi Stamp and the Love Stamps were my favorite and the hardest to find.

The Mississippi Stamp and the Love Stamps were my favorite and the hardest to find.

The envelopes we used for our wedding invitations were 100% recycled paper from Action Envelope.   We used vintage stamps that I purchased on Ebay, for the invitations we sent to the wedding party, close friends and family.

I love the vintage stamps. Ben and I had so much fun picking out which stamps to put on each envelopes.

For all of the other guests, we used the new love stamps which were perfect.

These stamps make me happy.

Since hiring a calligrapher didn’t really fit into our budget and I had no intention of writing addresses on all of our invitations since my husband invited half of  Starkville, we decided on using wrap labels to address the envelopes.  I got the idea from Martha Stewart and she has a free template.   I used a bone folder to fold the address labels.  These were designed by Kirby Doss.

Sending and receiving pretty mail correspondence is real high on my list of things that make me happy.
