A Wedding Post Box, Why?

If you have attended a wedding reception in the recent past you may have noticed that traditions have changed over the years. With more and more couples living together and setting up home before marriage, there is generally less call for the obligatory toasters, kettles, tableware and dinner services as gifts as they are already owned leaving the traditional big gift table to be a fondly remembered thing of the past.
Today it is common place and acceptable to request vouchers for a wide range of gifts and even monetary offerings. Guests clutching valuable envelopes and without an obvious place to drop them can often feel uneasy, and on edge waiting to catch the attention of the best man, the ushers, the groom or even the bride.
A fun and safe place for the guests to leave their cards and gifts could be an essential addition to any wedding plans leaving your guests to relax and enjoy all of the preparations you have worked so hard on..
Couples often choose to decorate a cardboard box and cut a slot to accept their gifts. At a recent wedding my fiancé carried a wedding card for hours not knowing where to place it at the reception. Late in the evening she was guided to a box wrapped and decorated on the cake table that she had mistaken for a gift left for the happy couple!
 

 
   
 

When inviting close friends and relatives to your reception the last thing you may expect to happen is that any gifts may go astray. Not only are your guests present but venue staff, caterers and perhaps musicians or entertainers. Without a safe haven to store such cards and gifts they could well be vulnerable to an opportunist to quickly slip away with without anyone ever noticing. On one reported occasion such an incident occurred when a close friend of the bride's gift went missing. Not only was the gift never recovered but the friendship was also tested as unbeknown to the friend, as the gift had not been received, there appeared no need for the couple to show their gratitude. Only some months later did it become apparent what had actually happened. With this in mind your post box could also be made lockable for extra peace of mind. Small gifts, keep sakes and disposable cameras can also find haven with in the post box by the easy removal of the roof cap and dropping such items inside.
