Is this tacky?

Is it tacky if I use mailing address labels for my thank you cards? I can't imagine having to write all of those addresses. I had a little over 260 guests at the wedding. Please be honest.

Re: Is this tacky?

Here's honesty. No I don't think it's tacky. You can make up some nice labels. I'm sorry maybe it's just me. But I'm going to have over 250 Thank you's to write out. Labels is a good idea.

Maybe have clear labels. That might look a little nicer. This is JMO. I'm sure others might disagree.

Re: Is this tacky?

I agree with OctBride. That is just too many to write by hand. I've seen clear lables (got a weddign invite with them) and they looked nice.

Re: Is this tacky?

You can do a mail merge on Word so that the address prints out on the envelope

Re: Is this tacky?

Wacky,

I DO NOT think it's nice for the invite!!! No way...

I just thought for thank you's it's just an easy way I guess. I would understand if I got a thank you and there was a mailing label on it. JMO.

Re: Is this tacky?

I think labels are just fine for thank yous since they are pretty informal anyway.

IMO labels are tacky for wedding invitations because those are formal and should have something less 'assembly line'.

Re: Is this tacky?

it never crossed my mind that it would be considered 'tacky' - esp. for something so menial as an address!

Re: Is this tacky?

I do not see anything wrong with labels for Thankyous, or as someone else suggested you can print the addresses on the computer, that would be nice .

Re: Is this tacky?

OK, I have a follow up, if you're not putting labels on your invites, how are you addressing them?

Re: Is this tacky?

Re: Is this tacky?

I think labels for thank you cards are fine especially if a nice font is used.

Re: Is this tacky?

I think labels are fine for a Thank You since it is not as formal as an invitation.

Re: Is this tacky?

print straight on to the envelope using a nice font. I don't think labels would look nice, but 50% of the people probably wouldn't notice anyway.
