2023 Postage Increase

2023 postage rate increase wedding invitations save the dates

On Sunday, January 22nd, postage rates increased again!  So if you have purchased your Save The Date or wedding invitation postage, you will probably need to visit the Post Office again.

The first class (1-ounce) stamp, also known as the Forever Stamp, has increased from $.60 to $.63.  This is the stamp used on most response card envelopes and everyday mailings. Metered 1-ounce letter will increase by $.3 from $.57 to $.60.
AND
For that additional ounce, the rate remains the same at $.24.  Also, mailing a 2-ounce letter, the weight used most for mailing wedding invitation suites, will cost $.87. The cost for mailing a postcard increases from $.44 to $.48.

Until next time...WEDologize!
