Thursday Thank You's


Call us old-fashioned, but we highly recommend sending a handwritten thank you note to each guest who gives you a wedding gift.  Thank you notes are still considered proper (and expected!) even in our technology-loving culture. 

Each Thursday we will feature our favorite stationary available for you to purchase on the internet and also some do-it-yourself ideas to make your own.


Before your wedding, make a banner that says "thank you" out of fabric or paper.  On your wedding day, hold the banner with your spouse for a quick photo and use the picture to make a photo thank you card.  Make sure your wedding photographer could get the photo to you quickly after the wedding.  If not, have a friend take the picture so you can get your thank you cards printed, written, and mailed to your guests quickly.



 

These thank you notes from Target are inexpensive and classic.  They are available online and in stores.





You could easily make your own thank you cards, like these shown from Martha Stewart Weddings, using card stock and yarn.  Draw your monogram or a shape using glue onto your card and attach yarn in your wedding colors to make inexpensive thank you cards with homemade charm. 



No matter how you do it, make sure to say thank you!
