Shutterfly, Inc. (NASDAQ:SFLY), the leading manufacturer and online retailer of high-quality personalized photo products and services, and David’s Bridal, the leading bridal and special occasion retailer in the United States, today formally announced an expanded partnership. The new collaboration builds off an already successful standing relationship, and makes Shutterfly the exclusively endorsed personalized wedding invitation and personalized photo product partner to David’s Bridal.

The deal gives Shutterfly direct access to the largest concentration of brides in the US through the David’s Bridal website, dedicated emails, direct marketing communications and over 315 retail locations. In addition, brides will be able to choose from a new assortment of expertly curated wedding invitations and day-of stationery designed by David’s Bridal beginning in early 2018. The collection will be available through the newly launched Wedding Shop by Shutterfly, and it will provide customers the unique ability to match their stationery “look and feel” with the corresponding David’s Bridal color palette they select.

“David’s Bridal leads the bridal industry in terms of scale,” said John Boris, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Shutterfly. “This new partnership further enables Shutterfly to directly reach the over 1 million brides that David’s Bridal serves annually and is the perfect springboard for the launch of our new wedding initiatives, including the Wedding Shop by Shutterfly.”

This multi-year partnership provides David’s Bridal customers with direct access to Shutterfly Wedding Shop products via distribution of Shutterfly wedding catalogs and stationery sample kits in David’s Bridal stores, enabling them to experience the quality first-hand.

“Partnering with Shutterfly, the leader in online wedding stationery and personalized products gives us another channel to connect with our brides throughout their wedding planning process,” said Lia Madonna, Senior Director of Partnerships at David’s Bridal. “David’s Bridal believes that every woman deserves to have the wedding of her dreams and we are committed to being with her every step of the way. Whether it is selecting her gown or her invitation stationery, each bride should look for something that truly feels most like her, that reflects her individual sense of style showcasing her unique and special qualities and Shutterfly gives her an outlet to do just that.”

Congress Seeks to Cut USPS Prefunding (multichannelmerchant.com)

Yet another effort is underway in Congress to eliminate the costly prefunding of U.S. Postal Service retiree healthcare benefits that have been an albatross for the USPS since a 2006 reform measure, and this time appears to have some more bipartisan momentum. A reform act that would eliminate the prefunding, which has cost the USPS many billions over the years, passed the House in 2020 but was hung up in the Senate. Now senators Brian Schatz (D-HI) and Steve Daines (R-MT) have reintroduced the measure, according to Federal News Network. A companion bill has been proposed by House Oversight and Reform Committee Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) and House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Peter DeFazio (D-OR), along with Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Tom Reed (R-NY) and Colin Allred (D-TX).

Chairman Robert G. Taub Statement on the Postal Regulatory Commission’s 50th Anniversary

The Postal Regulatory Commission marks 50 years of public service in its mission to ensure transparency and accountability of one of our Nation’s most valued treasures rooted in the Constitution — the U.S. Postal Service. President Richard M. Nixon signed into law the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970 on August 12 of that year. This momentous legislation would transform the Post Office Department into a newly independent Postal Service the following year. Yet the law immediately created the Postal Rate Commission as the 1970 Act ended the role of the U.S. Congress in setting stamp prices. Later, with passage of the Postal Accountability & Enhancement Act of 2006, the agency was renamed the Postal Regulatory Commission as part of significantly expanding its responsibilities. For half a century, the Commission has been the regulatory anchor providing legal and economic oversight of the one agency that touches the lives of all Americans in every community nearly every day, at their homes and offices. Ever since Congress and President Nixon created it on August 12, 1970, the Commission has consistently conducted its work in an open and accessible way, with full transparency and an opportunity for robust input by the public. The agency's operations on behalf of its fellow citizens foster a vital and efficient universal mail system.
