Writing Wedding Thank You Cards and Notes
|
It's best to wait until
after your honeymoon to send your wedding thank you cards.
The objective of the
honeymoon is to enjoy the time shared together with
no preoccupations or tensions and nothing to remind the
newlyweds
of the daily
routine. When the couple returns from the Honeymoon, the
thank-you
notes, letters or cards should be sent to show
appreciation for
the wedding gifts that the happy couple have received.
Writing
a thank you card
It is
always pleasant to receive a thank you card. Your guests have
used their time and money to get your wedding present and they
will love knowing how much you appreciate it. At the least you
should send to a brief, but original and sincere card to say
thanks to them. The best thank you notes are the
ones that
come from the heart!
When
to send thank you cards
You should send thank
you cards in appreciation of the gifts, once the
hustle and bustle of the wedding, and the subsequent relaxation of the
honeymoon have passed. Sending the cards will
actually help to remind you what items you have been given and thus
what you don't need to buy yourselves for your newly married life
together. It will also be useful for the person who sent the
gift
to you, as it will confirm that the gift was correctly sent
and received. The thank you cards should be sent within a
month
from the bride and grooms return from their honeymoon
Save
time preparing and writing the thank yous
The
best thing is to write notes on the back of personalized
cards,
on which are written the name of the persons you are thanking
and
their address. It is a good idea to prepare these cards with
the
names and addresses at the same time that the wedding invitations
are sent. We know that for
this the bride is usually in charge, but the gifts
were sent
them to
both the bride and the groom, so the fairest thing is that they both
share the task. Organize a little time each day to dedicate yourselves
to this.
Content
of the thank you note
- Never write
the thank you notes by computer, typewrite or any kind of mechanical
device. They always must be written by hand to make them
personal.
- Write in
your best clear and legible handrwiting.
- Mention the
actual gift which was given. Be very specific to ensure that
the person who sent the gift
to you does not feel that you don't remember the gift that
they sent.
- Both the
newlywed husband and wife should sign the thank you notes.
