  Long story short we were kind of rushed with the wedding invitations and A TON of the stamps on the RSVP response envelopes are upside down. Is this a big deal? I’ve read that the post office will still deliver mail this way but I’m worried that it will look tacky and our guests will feel like we did a sloppy job and just slapped them out without really caring. I’m totally fine with correcting all of them (carefully tear off the stamps and re-using them or purchasing new response card envelopes and buying more stamps) because I feel like we should have slowed down and made them look more presentable, but does is it worth it and will people even notice or care? Thanks!!

  I think this is a pretty victimless crime, if it is a crime at all. I wouldn't worry about it. The post office will still deliver them. As long as they're still functional, i wouldn't bother with attempting to remedy it.

  
  

  If you did need to remedy it, I would just start over.

  I'm positive I've mailed some mail like this and it was delivered just fine.

  
  

  And as a guest, I can guarantee you I'd never notice.

  I've heard many times that an upside down stamp means someone loves you...so just think you're sending lots of love out there to the world.

  I honestly don't think anyone will even notice the postage's orientation. They'll make sure it's there and probably never think of it again!.

  I wouldn't worry about it. Like PP said, victimless crime. As a guest I would be thankful you remembered to put the stamp on at all.

  People don't often pay much attention to stamps.  I did custom stamps with our photos and several of our guests didn't even notice unless someone mentioned it. I only sent 20 invites, and I know at least 25% didn't notice the custom stamp.  And I think only 2 or 3 people commented to me on the stamps.  So, most probably won't even notice that the stamp is upside down, and if they do I doubt they would care.
