I had an idea today for a fun and unique card box for at the wedding! A Mailbox!! So I looked up some antique mail boxes (and those were way too expensive) and then I looked up regular mailboxes and they are also very expensive (I never would have thought that)!! SO if anyone happens to come across one that they might think would work (even with a little bit of tweaking like a paint job and maybe my dad can even write 'The Rickers' on the side or something cute like that, as he used to be a professional painter!) then please let me know!
Here are a couple of examples of the type of mailbox I thought would look nice! But even if I find a cheap plastic one I might be able to paint it in a metallic finish and put a ribbon around it to make it cute!! Who knows depending on the type of house we get we may even be able to use this 'card box' as our real mailbox!
P.S. Obviously one that doesn't say "U.S. Mail" on the front would be preferred!

I found a really inexpensive mail box ($17.00) at Canadian Tire This week! It's a plain black metal one, but it can be painted and dressed up with a bow and maybe even a new metal 'flag' instead of the red plastic one it came with!
Should look pretty cute!
