from today's "to do" list to wedding invitations, to bills, to.... well the list is endless!
i remembered reading about having your invitations hand-canceled at the post office. it looks better and also prevents any damage that might occur to the invites while going through the auto-canceler.
then, i had a small epiphany... wouldn't it be fun to have them canceled in a town with a unique name?
whadda ya know? there's a Love, Illinois... 3 hours away! unfortunately, they don't have a post office of their own :(
Romance, Missouri is 7 hours away, but strike out again! no post office. (that would have been a fun trip to the ozarks!)
Love Lake, Missouri is only a 4.5 hour drive.... strike 3!
their post offices are all located in bigger towns nearby. damn.
okay, Loves Park, Illinois is 3 hours away and they DO have a post office. 4th time's a charm :)
Gourmet Invitations shows the difference between hand-canceled invitations and auto-canceled ones here.

Thanks for the link! Did you know that you can actually mail your invitations to a post office like that and they'll cancel and mail them for you? I read it in a book. You can also send them an invitation and ask them to postmark it on your wedding date and they'll mail it to you!
