Wedding Thank You Etiquette | ||
Yes, we all love to receive gifts, and weddings are a perfect occasion for gift giving, as friends & loved ones customarily honor the commitment of the newly betrothed by showering them with wedding gifts. As the happy couple, just remember to always feel privileged - not entitled. Approach saying thank you with as much thought and organization as the rest of your wedding planning. | ||
Contrary to popular myth, the happy couple does not have a year's grace period. All thank you notes should be written within three months of the receipt of the gift. Start sending wedding thank yous as soon as gifts arrive, even if it is before your wedding (but make sure to use your maiden name). If that's not possible, set a daily goal. It's a lot easier to write three or four notes a day than to have to write a hundred notes in a month after the wedding! To ease the process, keep track of wedding gifts and thank-you cards on the same list of names and addresses used for your invitations. | ||

What to Include in a Wedding Thank You CardWhat to write in your thank you notes? A basic formula to remember:
For monetary gifts, thank them for their generosity. There is no need to acknowledge the amount. Etiquette dictates that you mention how you plan to use it. You may even want to say something along the lines of "Your generosity will help us with the down payment for our new home." Anyone who sends a gift or helps you with the wedding planning process should receive a thank you card. You may also choose to send wedding thank you cards to any professionals/vendors that go above and beyond your expectations, as they helped make your day special, too. |
