christmas cards

Are you sending christmas cards to everyone you invited to your wedding?

I normally send cards to close relatives and friends. Most, but not all, of the people on my usual card list were invited to the wedding. We also invited people that I wouldn't normally send cards to (dad's second cousins, DH's acquaintences, etc.) Do I need to send cards to those people, too? This year? Every year?

thanks!

Well what we did since our TYs just went out, they became TY/Christmas cards and then I am sending Christmas cards to other people who either got a TY earlier (if gift came b4 wedding), didn't send gift yet (we had a bunch), or didn't come to wedding.

No, definitely not sending a holiday card to everyone on our guest list.

Re: christmas cards

YES!

I love to give and this is another small way of saying hello to people we rarely get to see and let them know that we are thinking of them during this wonderful time of year.

Re: christmas cards

No, not to my parents' colleagues or my old colleagues that were 'obligation' but otherwise, pretty much (we had 220 people at our wedding!)

Re: christmas cards

Yes! But we timed it so that our thank yous are also Xmas cards - they are a wedding photo of us on the outside, and on the inside I had them write 'Warmest thanks and wishes for a very happy holiday season.'

Killin two birds with one stone!

Re: christmas cards

Yes. Our wedding was small, so we are sending them to everyone. I don't think we'll keep that up after this year for some of the people we don't know well, but for this year, we will do it.
