US Brides willing to receive packages and ship to Canada

[all the love]

Hi ladies,

I've seen offers for this on a few different forums, but thought it might be nice to compile them in one place. So if you live in the US and would be willing to receive a package for a Canadian bride and ship it across the border, please post here so we can contact you! This might help us save on shipping costs, but also allows us access to some of those great sites that just won't ship to Canada.

 

Thanks!

What a great idea, there are a few times I could have used this!

Okay all you brides that said you would help.. lol

 

I am a Canadian Bride and used to fall in love with favors on theknot until I found out they do not ship to Canada. They instead referred me to their sister site, American Bridal. Their prices are not as great, but this week the fans I have been eyeing for almost a year now are on sale for $1.40 each, the personalized sandalwood fans. I only need like 40 so I jumped at the opportunity - then my shipping was $86.21 and my duty fees were going to be another $28.75. The fans themselves with my coupon code only came to like $45! Then they want me to drop another hundred bucks to ship them? Eeeeeeeyuck.

 

The shipping can't be that horrendous for you USA brides, I'm hoping. Anybody willing to help?

When are you looking to order? If you are planning for things to arrive after November 17th - I will help you out!

I got my sandalwood fans at www.weddingfavorites.com. They were $0.59 each, not sure if they ship to Canada but even if they don't they are less expensive (no personalization though). I am buying a rubber stamp to personalize them (in orange!!!) Just another thought!
