Wedding Post Box

Hi,

How are you going to keep your post box secure?

I dont want people being able to get into our post box.

Thanks
Sam

    I hadn't thought of that. I guess I thought that if it was in plain sight with guests and family around it'd be ok, but I guess you can never be sure?

    Will be interested to see what people are doing - sorry, not much help at all here!
  • my sil is doing my postbox and she is putting a padlock on it and is using it for people to messages in it, then on my first anniversary she will give us the key for us to open it to look at what everyone has said.

    with regards to my cards and presents im leaving them on the table and when it gets too crowded i'll have them moved to a seperate secure room

    my cousin took all hers up to her hotel room as he wedding was in a hotel she had close familyor her parents to take them up

    hth

    That's a good idea...having them all moved up! Re: postbox, couldn't you just put it near where you sit so you can keep an eye on it? If it's metal/hard to open all someone can do is run off with it and that'd be pretty conspicuous.
