Re: Vendor Thank You's?

It's really a personal decision. Assume the vendor will save your Thank you as a reference/recommendation. That might help you decide.

I'm pretty much doing everybody because I was really happy with all of my vendors.

Althought I haven't done them yet. I got all my guest thank you's done...but the vendor ones are still sitting here on my desk...

Re: Vendor Thank You's?

I did not send out a TY to any vendors. I ran out of pictures....but if i didn't i would of sent it to only the hall and makeup/hair person.

Re: Vendor Thank You's?

I can't even remember who I sent them too. Probably the main vendors. I know I did not send one to my hall because I was irriated with them.

Re: Vendor Thank You's?

I sent one to the florist because she did a great job and the TY photo had a really good shot of my bouquet.

I am still thinking I am getting out a few more, but not the top of my list of priorities. I mean, I did pay them for their work.....

Re: Vendor Thank You's?

I'm not sure if I'm going to bother... I don't have that many extras and they must get a million. I, too, am a bad bride.

Re: Vendor Thank You's?

I'm only sending them to vendors whose work I felt deserves a TY. For me, that was my BM, hair, makeup, dj, officiant... I think that's it. Most of the other vendors did their job just fine but I think these are the ones who really deserve a TY for me.
