Your wedding ceremony was magical, love filled the air, smiles, and the presence of those who matter most to you. Now that the confetti has settled, the last dance a lovely moment, it is time to express your highest appreciation. Sending a sincere wedding thank you card is the best way of informing your wedding guests how much their gift and presence meant to you. But how do you make your thank you cards special?
Why Wedding Thank You Cards Matter
A wedding thank u cards is not an etiquette—it's a message of thanks that consolidates your bond with your dear ones. They might have traveled far to celebrate your wedding, presented you with something beautiful, or even blessed you with all their heart. You owe them a return gift. A genuine thank you card is your gesture of humanness and gratitude.
When to Send Wedding Thank You Cards
Timing is everything in sending thank you cards. The guideline is:
For gifts given before the wedding: Send thank you note two to three weeks after you received the gift.
For gifts received on or after the wedding date: Send thank you card three months after your wedding date.
This keeps your appreciation timely and sincere.
Essential Ingredients of the Perfect Wedding Thank You Note
Personalized Salutation
Make sure to address the guests by their names. "Dear Aunt Lisa" or "Dear John and Sarah" would suffice to make the note personal and inviting.
Real Thank You Note
Start with thank you. It is a generic message which in no way can be put parallel to a personal message.
Example: "Thanks a million for being part of our special day. Your presence made it even more special."
The Gift or Donation
Mention the gift or donation they have made.
Example: "We just love the hand-painted serving dishes. Every time we serve, we will be thinking of you!"
If you have been given money, you can mention where you will be spending it: "Your lovely gift will be spent on furnishing our new home. Thank you so much!"
Personal Touch
Include a personal wedding memory if possible.
Example: "Dancing to 'Perfect' with you was one of the highlights of the night!"
Finishing Warmly
Finish warmly, e.g.,
"Love and thanks, Emily Jake"
"A huge thank you, The Johnsons"

We're just so full up with thanks for the both of you. We'd so love to use the donation towards funding our honeymoon in Greece. It's of such importance that such kindness shows through in all you do; we just can't get enough of you being around us. Would just adore sending some honeymoon photos!
With grateful thanks,
