Comments on How to Write a Wedding Thank-You Note

If you know who is throwing you the bridal/wedding shower, ask them to have the thank you card envelopes addressed at the event. My best friend held my bridal shower and right up front she had everyone put thier name and address on a small envelope. In the end it turned out the envelopes went with the thank you cards she gave me. This was a great idea and a super time saver since I did not know how to contact all the people at the shower as some of them were suprise guests from my past.

Spend 15-20 minutes each evening after you get settled in writing 3 or 4 thank you's. This will make the work seem less overwhelming. Of course, start with the gifts you received first.

Make sure to record the date of when you received a gift and when you sent out the thank-you note. In the chaos of all of the wedding gifts, it's easy to accidentally forget to send a note. This way, you have an easy way to check if it was sent.

Try to write notes as you receive gifts. My husband and I did this, and people constantly commented on how they were impressed to get the note so quickly. People really appreciate it. After all, they took the time to pick out a gift.
