Thank you card question

My bridal shower was Saturday and I want to get the thank you cards done today. When I address them do I include the husbands name on it. They were not at the shower but I know they TECHNICALLY paid for the gift , their name was not on the card though. Please help. I don't know the etiquette on this. TIA

Since only the ladies were invited to my shower, I am addressing the thank yous to them only. If it was a couples shower, I would have addressed it to the lady and her hubby.

HTH!

I only addressed cards to the ladies unless they included their husbands names on the gift.
Which a few did...if you kept your cards you can use that as your guide!
I could only do 15 at a time before my handwriting started to get sloppy & I started getting bored!!

this is tough. I addressed them all to the ladies only. HOWEVER, I heard through the grapevine that my uncle was very upset that it wsnt also addressed to him since he paid for the gift as well. Personally, I think its stupid, but I guess some guys get offended.

But in general, I believe it should be addressed to the female only because she's the one who attended.

That's my only issue, I don't want to offend anybody.

I agree with Mrs. Q. The ladies are the invitees so the thank you notes should be addressed to them.
