Mistakenly delivered bill leads to wedding

  

  A U.S. letter carrier Dave Guseman turned out to be a matchmaker when he delivered an electric bill to the wrong address.

  Chad Ringenberg got the electric bill belonging to his neighbor, Jhannea Frandsen, in his mailbox. He decided to deliver it to her himself.

  “We talked for about two hours that night in her doorway,” Ringenberg told the Grand Forks Herald.

  Last weekend — two years later — they were married. As the wedding day neared, the couple decided to invite the person who brought them together.

  Guseman attended the wedding, but was surprised when the minister started the ceremony by talking about the postal service, saying the letter carrier must have had an angel watching over him when he delivered Frandsen’s mail to the wrong address.

  The wedding programs included a special note: “Jhannea and Chad wish to offer their sincerest gratitude to the United States Postal Service for the inadvertent mishap, which led to today’s events.”

  In the spirit of their first encounter, the Ringenbergs used mailboxes as centerpieces on their reception tables and exited the reception to the tune of “Mr. Postman.”

  Guseman had his picture taken with the grateful bride and groom.

  “I’m thinking this would make a nice romantic movie,” he said. “I think I’ll give Steven Spielberg a call.”  (SD-Agencies)
