A wedding OVER 1yr ago OR a shower which was held before that.
I did not receive a thank you for a wedding and shower I attended last spring and I see this couple often.

My coworker never gave us a thank you note from his wedding, and it will be a year this August. I think its rude. He even mentioned it maybe 6 months ago saying 'Ah, we gotta get going with Thank you notes. I hear I have a year, though.'

I would probably think it got lost in the mail
theres no way to know unless you ask and then you make them feel bad
I always hated sending thanks u's as a kid....seems so ridiculous. Obviously, people are thankful. Why do people need validation in response of their generosity?

WOW, thats really rude! I don't know what I would do! I have a friend who got married and one of the checks they received bounced!! So they kept on the fridge, andevery time the guy who wrote it, came over he would see it!!! It took the guy over a year to write a new check!!

That's really bad in my book, but my Best Friend, and my MOH in my wedding got married last July and we still have not received anything. No thanks you at all! This is her's and his 2nd marriage but that's besides the point we all flew 3000 miles away for the wedding and gave a very generous gift.
I had my bridal shower 6/4 and I mailed out the invitation the next Thurs.
Not acceptable...that's how I was raised!

If my photographer was at fault...I would handwrite Hallmark Thank You cards and send the photos thank you's later. Even though people assume you are thankful...it is absolutely not acceptable to not send thank you's. This whole incident is annoying me.

Re: How would react if...
i wouldn't bother thinking about it...no point
And to be honest, except for a picture that you get for a wedding TY. I don't even care if i get a TY or not

you could say 'I never got a thank you from your wedding and I am anxious to see the picture you chose'
or something like that.

Re: How would react if...
a friend of mine from school got married a year ago and she never sent me a thank u for the shower or the wedding gift. she even said at one point that she needed my address again for the thank yous but i never got one and have seen her plenty of times in the past year. i dont think i 'need' a thank you, but i get worried that maybe she did not think the gift was good enough?

I guess some people just don't do them or don't think they are necessary. I think it's a really nice gesture just to let the guest know you received their gift and appreciated them being there with you!
I went to a wedding last year and we got our Thank You one year later and the best part is, the bride doesn't even work!!!!

Honestly, I could care less if someone sends me a thank you or not. Usually Im just hoping to get a picture. If I dont I realize its because the bride or whoever is as busy as me and cant keep their head on straight

I would be pissed.
as for the getting lost in the mail thing... I have had one thing get lost in the mail my entire life. Maybe it was more than 1 thing and the reason I never noticed is b/c I wasn't expecting it.

Re: How would react if...
i had 3 ty's from my shower get lost and 1 wedding invitation. When doing mass mailing sometimes things get screwy. But since this was 2xs for you, it is highly doubtful it is missing

You did not get a Thank You Card for:

I asked this same question about 6 weeks ago and then 2 weeks after that (maybe she reads this site..lol) I got a thank you for a JULY 2003 wedding

Funny. Now that you mention it..I am actually waiting for Thank You's from 2 weddings over a yr ago. The Brides does not work AND I was in the BP.
I like the point about sending thank you's to atleast know that your gift was received. In these days where they can get lost for various reasons, the TY gives you a peace of mind. If you give a generous, or very generous gift every gift must get a thank you.
