Signed, Sealed, Delivered: The Vows We Have Made Filming Locations
‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered: The Vows We Have Made’ is set in a fictional Dead Letter Office (DLO) of the U.S. Postal System, where our four protagonists work. However, it was filmed in Vancouver, Canada. Let’s look more closely at this specific filming location.
Vancouver, British Columbia
‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered: The Vows We Have Made’ was filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia. The Canadian city known as Hollywood North provided the perfect sets needed by the Hallmark film to immerse fans in a world of letters and love. Vancouver provides the ideal picturesque locations, both indoors and outdoors, needed to make the POstables and their good deeds come to life.
Vancouver is one of the largest film production centers in the world, known for its mix of natural attractions and manmade marvels, ease of travel, and dependable weather. Its advantageous government tax credits and storehouse of talented film industry professionals make it an excellent filming base.
In fact, Vancouver is one of Hallmark’s most frequented filming locations, with dozens of productions carried out in the city each year. With most Hallmark productions being romantic dramas with an emphasis on gorgeous backdrops, it makes sense that a city as beautiful as Vancouver successfully caters to the feel-good storylines.
Thus, the quaint backdrops — from the cramped yet cozy DLO office to elegant lawn front houses — that we see our POstables against are actually sets and neighborhoods in Vancouver. The Canadian city is so visually diverse that it manages to pass off as any American city or town. No wonder Hallmark and the ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered’ franchise keep returning to this popular city known for its historical neighborhoods, nightlife, well-maintained parks, and snowy mountains.
