The little Oregon post office popular with people sending out wedding invitations is back in business. The 110-square-foot building in Bridal Veil will reopen Monday at 10 a.m., KPTV reports.

A Christmas Eve break-in at the beloved Columbia River Gorge post office forced a temporary closure, due to extensive vandalism.

“The damage was significant enough to close the facility altogether,” a U.S. Postal Service spokesman said in early January. “That’s something we don’t do lightly.”

The post office is pretty much the only ongoing business in the tiny former lumber town, thanks to soon-to-be-joined couples from around the country who want the postmark on their invitations to read “Bridal Veil.”

The last mill in the town shut down more than 30 years ago, which prompted almost all of its residents to leave. The town is listed on a national ghost towns reference site.
