Today, I found out that just because you express mail something, it doesn't mean the post office won't still lose it. What did they lose? My signed marriage license. We spent all that time and money to get married on the day of our choosing, and our marriage isn't even valid. FML

Thank you for your kind words. People don't understand that we did everything to get it there on time and backed it up with express mail which is overnight delivery to ensure or very important document was received on time. The sad thing is, those employed at the post office just don't care.

That's really bad. I feel for you. Post offices aren't reliable like they were at one point I guess.

You should definitely file a complaint I'm sorry that your big day got ruined by a technicality

101- You were probably number 28 when you started typing that post, weren't you?

101 that is probably the best thing i have ever on this website! you are awesome!

Well, it's just a marriage license, it shouldn't matter. As a side note: Run while you have the chance groom, Go, Go, Go!

Aw sorry op. Ask them to mail another one, I'm sure it won't be a problem! All that matters is that you married the one you love.

Doesn't matter, still married?! Don't worry op, I'm pretty sure that happens a lot more than you think. Congrats on getting married! :)

The USPS screw up all the time. I had a similar drama trying to order my birth certificate! I've learned first hand not to depend on them. **I also get my neighbor's mail in my box ALL the time. Complaints don't change it!

It's valid... You just need to get another copy!

Really, I get a thumbs down for stating the obvious! My second response to this original post still stands. Stupid!

I have never seen so many STUPID posts in my time here on fml. I'm truly scared for the future of humanity FML!

You must have not been here long.

I'm confused as to why you mailed your signed license? The only time ours was mailed was after it was all on file and official and we could get a copy...

maybe that's what's happening with this one?
