The stamps were first issued at the Walt Disney World Resort today at its Epcot theme park, which is also kicking off its Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival, which celebrates the art of gardening with demonstrations, shows, gardens, and larger than life topiaries.

The Epcot Flower and Garden Festival tie-in featured seven-foot tall topiary re-creations of the new Disney romance postage stamps.

Vice president of area operations for the US Postal Service Jo Ann Feindt joined Walt Disney World President Al Weiss for the release of the new Disney stamps at Epcot.

Walt Disney World President Al Weiss said the stamps didn’t just celebrate love, but they also spread to a larger audience the “joy and magic” of these favorite Disney characters.

The Art of Disney: Romance 39 cent stamps will go to national release tomorrow, April 22. They will be available at post offices nationwide.
