Wedding Thank You Etiquette

After the wedding, you have gift opening and then the thank you cards.

There is wedding thank you etiquette that must be followed. If you follow anything to the letter, it should be the writing of the thank you cards. As once thought by many brides, you do not have a year to send out thank you cards.

The thank you cards for wedding gifts should go out within three months after the wedding or the honeymoon if you take one. There is nothing more daunting than knowing you have to handwrite all those thank you cards, but there is help.

At gift opening, have someone writing down what you got for a gift from each person. This will make writing the thank you cards easier. There are a few tips for wedding thank you etiquette that will help you get the job done.

When writing the notes, address each person by name and mention the gift and how much you both appreciate their gift. If you receive a gift in the mail, write the thank you card right away and that is one less that you have to do later. It also lets the sender know that you did receive the gift.

The thank you card wording does not have to be long, but should express your thanks and any other little something you might want to say. If you have a list of gifts and whom they were from, you can write a few every day and finish up in the three-month period.

You do not want to go over three months for thank you cards and shower cards that have not gone out yet, need to go out right away, preferable two weeks after the shower. Wedding thank you etiquette is very important to follow if you follow anything.
