Put a stamp on it

My future mother-in-law(FMIL) works for the post office and she mailed me pictures of the new love and wedding stamps that are coming out this year. As most of you know, postage is going to be raised in May and I thought I would include a list of the new prices:
Letters – first ounce
$0.44
Large envelopes – first ounce
$0.88
Parcels – first ounce
$1.22
Additional ounces
$0.17
Postcard
$0.28
Stamped Card
$0.31
Stamped Envelope
$0.54

Now onto the really important stuff, what those new stamps actually look like!!



These are the new "Love" stamps that will be coming out. In case you can't tell, it's the king and queen of hearts. I'm not a big fan of these stamps, they're not very colorful or pretty. In my opinion, not very "wedding-ish".



This stamp is the new 1oz. wedding stamp. I really like this one, it's classy and pretty. Since my invites will mail at the 1oz. rate, I can safely say that I let out a big sigh of relief when I saw these!
For those of you who will be mailing at the 2oz. rate, this will be your stamp. Again, very beautiful. I really like both of these stamps.
Kudos to you postal service on the new wedding stamps! Even though postage goes up in May, my FMIL says these stamps will not be out until sometime in June. Sorry June brides!
