Six easy steps to a warm, thoughtful wedding thank you note.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Greeting: Dear [Friend or Family],

  2. Step 2

    Your reason for writing; Thank you for the [description of gift] [name of gift].

    Example: Thank you for the elegant Nambe vase.

  3. Step 3

    Add at least one sentence about the item: something you did with it, a reason you like it, when you plan to use it. Ideally, make the sentence 2 parts, like the example below. This makes the note feel more sincere.

    Example: It's so chic and matches my living room decor perfectly.

  4. Step 4

    Thank the giver for coming to the wedding, if they did.

    Example: Thank you so much for coming. It meant a lot to us to have you there.

  5. Step 5

    Mention something about the giver such as family members or something
    happening in their lives.

    Example: Best wishes to the kids. OR Have a great time in Maine next month. I look forward to hearing about it!

  6. Step 6

    Sign off. "Love" is fine for family members and close friends. For others,
    some choices are "Yours Truly", "Regards", or "Warm Regards".

Tips & Warnings
  • That's it! Once you know how to write a couple of sentences that truly express your feelings, you'll find it's a piece of cake to crank out those thank you notes. And you'll feel good that your gift-giver knows you really mean it. For more samples, see http://www.Thank-You-Note-Samples.com/wedding-thank-you.html
