Help me write my thank yous, please!

What do you write?? What if people give you money? do you say,'thank you for $$$'? or what?? I dont wnat it to sound tacky, but I want them to know I appreciate their gifts and acknowledge what they gave us. Also do you give a thank you to someone you never got a card from but was at the reception?

i think whether it is china, crystal, coffee pot, $$ it is all a gift... but if it is a material thing i would reference what it was instead of saying gift, so money i would call a gift, others i would refer to what ever it is (china, vase, toaster etc)

I would write a thank you to who ever came.. just make it a thank you for sharing in/being at what ever they attended..

When it's money I say things like 'it will be used for a downpayment on our future house' which isn't a lie.

I've been working on mine...

I've used the phrase 'thank you for your generous gift' when the individuals have given us money.

i agree, use 'gift' for money and specifically say whatever the physical gift is. If you dont they will think you dont know what they got you

A loving note can barely say,
All we felt that magic day,
A heartfelt thanks is sent to you,
For your thoughtful gift, and wishes too.

Thank You.
