Wedding Gift Thank You Card

My husbands Aunt and Uncle came to our wedding and I don't think they gave us a gift and there is no card. We have to sets of guests like this they both traveled far and I think this is more than enough of a gift but, I don't want to offend anyone if there was a gift that may have disapeared or if they didn't give a gift. I would like to thank them as I know they made the time for us but, don't know how to word it.Please answer fast as I'm not sure what the correct amount of time is to get out thankyou's and I have handmade each one to make it special and don't want to fall into the rude category.

Thank you for adding to the joy of our special day with your presence.. It is the greatest of all gifts we could have received..

The correct amount of time for sending out thank you's .... You need to have them in the mail post marked by no later than 3 months after arriving home from your honeymoon...

My husband and I had a similar problem with our wedding gifts... His Aunt and Uncle attended the wedding and in the shuffle of stuff thier card with enclosed $500.00 check ended up wedged under my mothers 750lbs. buffet (a large ornate wooden cabinet) We sent out all the thank yous and thanked them for attending etc. about 2 months later his aunt called to ask why we hadn't deposited the check.. I had to tel her I never saw a check or card we were just glad they were able to attend... She promptly sent another card and check saying "It prolly got lost in the shuffle, it will turn up" That was 10 years ago.. Last year my mother got new carpeting (moving the buffet for the first time in nearly 18 years) and found the original card and check (unopened)... We all had a laugh about it including my husbands aunt and uncle... His aunt kept saying "See I told you it would turn up eventually" LOL

Homemade thank you card wedding card. I create 15 of these bride and groom cards as a gift to newly weds so they can write thank you notes to ...

We just received our first wedding gift! It was a rather expensive gift from his grandparents - they paid for some home renovations for us for about $2000. I bought a thank you card today and we are going to also send them a photo of the end result to show how great it turned out since they live across the country and can't see it for themselves. What should I write in the card? Also, our wedding isn't until June so this was an early wedding gift.

i was overwhelmed today to receive your card with the generous, helpful and wonderful check inside that will go toward making our house a home. we are so grateful, it will help get our married life off to a beautiful start. grandma and grandpa, we think of you often and will send a pix of the improvements when they are done, we cant thank you enuf, we love you and are so excited.

with love to you both




well, anyway, thats me., flowery and grateful for everything. what can i say.

I am finding mixed responses on this one! We had a large out of town wedding (four hours from home) at the beach. We were pretty shocked by the amount of people who came to the wedding and reception, but did not give a gift or a card. We were thrilled to have everyone with us on our special day and consider that a gift in itself, but have to say it was disappointing to not even receive a simple card congratulating us. Now it's time for thank you cards, and the debate is....should we send cards to those who came empty handed? I think we should, but my husband disagrees. Help?

It really is kind of sad that they didn't think to give a card. But the proper thing for you to do is to send them a thank you card for coming to your wedding. Like you said, you considered that a gift in itself.

Hello,
My sister was in amy wedding party and she did not have me a gift or at least a card. It's been 2 months since the wedding. She is the only one who we didn't receive anything from. Should I send her a thank you note for coming to the wedding with her husband and kids or should I not because I already have her a gift and thank you at the rehearsal dinner. I have to say I am very hurt by this.

no you don't need to give her a gift and dont feel hurt ,maybe she's just too busy and didnt find time to call you or contact you!

Can anyone help with:

-Wording (I don't want them all to sound the same)
-Creatvity
-Any other pointers

Thanks!

A creative idea, is to go through each gift and take a picture of it in your home. If it is a blender, take a picture of it sitting on the countertop. Or if you don't have a place for it, get you and your new husband to take a picture together with it. Make sure you are both smiling. Wine glasses and dinnerware can be pictured while you are using it. Play it up a little for the photo's.

Remember a picture says a thousand words.

As for wording, get some quirky thank you quotes from the internet. There are quote sites that are easy to find from a search engine.

Good luck and congrats
