Timeline for Thank Yous

How long do you have to get your TY cards out? I just ordered mine yesterday and I should have them by the end of next week. It will be almost 3 months already! I am so behind!

Re: Timeline for Thank Yous

Technically, you have a year. I would do them as soon as you get them. Mine had a photo printed on front and I had to wait 10 weeks for them, then another 4 for the thank yous, so I was sending them at the 4 month mark.

Mine came in yesterday and I feel like they should have been out already. But I'm crazy like that - I did my shower thank you's when I got home from the shower!!!

Re: Timeline for Thank Yous

Technically it is a year due to that lovely 'one year to give a present' rule, but most are sent w/in 3 months. Mine will be at 7 months b/c we are doing photo CD's & they are taking forever.

Re: Timeline for Thank Yous

I got mine out about 6 weeks after the wedding...I had ordered them with the invites, so I didn't have to wait later for them to come in.

Re: Timeline for Thank Yous

When my friend announced his divorce (at the 10 month mark)

I said, 'that's a shame, you guys never even got a chance to do your thank-you's'

Turns out, they did do them and I never got mine. And, they actually sent me one, with a photo, while they were in the midst of their divorce...

weird
