Wedding Thank You Notes

One of the best parts of your wedding is when you get to open your wedding gifts that you received from all of your friends and family.  The wedding gifts won’t be the most special part of the day, as the ceremony will, but the wedding gifts are like icing on the cake!Sending wedding thank you notes to the givers of the wedding gifts is only right so that you can show them how much you loved their gift and appreciated the wedding gift.  However, newlyweds dread this part!  A lot of the time, no wedding thank you notes are sent out at all and this is simply just not right.  Do you want your guests to feel that you didn’t like present?  Of course not!

Writing these wedding thank you notes can be pretty easy; you just need to know the basic of such.  There are just some general guidelines to keep in mind that will help you along the way.It’s best if you use some of the pre-printed wedding thank you cards that you can get at Hobby Lobby, Wal-Mart, or any other stationary/craft store.

Be sure to order a few more, you never know when a new wedding gift may pop up at your doorstep!

When you are writing your wedding thank you notes, it’s important to handwrite them.  Sure, it’s a lot easy to stick them in the printer and print them out, but handwritten wedding thank you notes will allow them to feel more personal and the giver of the gift will feel that you appreciated the gift more.

So, what do you write?  Be sure to have the guest list and gifts received from each beside you as well as a list of their addresses.  Please see the example below:

John and I really appreciate the silk bedding set.  It is very beautiful and we both adore it very much.  We will be sure to enjoy it for years to come.  Thank you for celebrating our special moment with us.  It was a pleasure to have you at our wedding.

Best wishes,

John and Marie Cook

After writing your thank you notes, get them in the mail immediately or you’ll forget and never send them out!  Remember, make them special and unique!
