Writing 'Thank You's'

I know there's some good websites for invitation wording. What about Thank You's? I had my Shower on Sunday and I gotta get started on the Thanks You's... FH gets off easy!

Can't complain b/c the Shower was sooo much fun and sooo many gifts.

I found this hope it helps!


A thank you card to someone you don’t know very well

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Johnson,

Thank you for the beautiful vase that you sent Christine and me as a wedding present. I know we will enjoy it for many years to come. It was wonderful to finally get to meet you at the wedding. We really appreciate that you were able to witness such a happy day for us and our families.

Sincerely yours,

Todd Markham


A thank you card when you’ve received cash or a gift certificate

Use the thank you card to tell the givers how you used it. For example:

Dear Terry and Vicky,

Todd and I wanted to thank you greatly for the check you sent for a wedding gift. We are saving to buy a new car, and your gift will help us reach our goal. We can’t wait to take you for a spin around the neighborhood.

Best wishes,

Christine Markham


A thank you card for an item off of your registry

Dear Jack,

I am writing to thank you for the place setting of china that you so kindly sent for a wedding gift. Todd and I now have a service for eight. I’m sure we’ll use it for years to come. Wedding china is such a thoughtful gift and an instant family heirloom.

Thanks again,

Christine Markham


A thank you card for a donation to a charity

Dear Alice,

Thank you for your thoughtful wedding gift to the ASPCA in our names. As you know, this charity is very dear to both Todd and I; they do such wonderful work for all of the animals in our area, as well as across the country. We can’t imagine a more wonderful present than a donation to such a cause.

With best wishes,

Christine Markham


A thank you card when you don’t like the gift

Dear Mrs. Goreham,

Thank you for the wedding present of the velvet painting of dogs playing poker. It is certainly a unique gift; you are always so thoughtful and generous. It was so nice of you to join us at our wedding, and Christine and I hope to see you soon.

With love,

Todd Markham


A thank you card for someone who sent a gift but wasn’t at the wedding

Dear Mr. Jacobs,

Thank you so much for the gold-plated doodad you sent Christine and me as a wedding gift. It was so thoughtful of you! I’m so sorry that you couldn’t attend the wedding – it was romantic and went just as planned. I’d love to get together soon so you can see the pictures!

Best,

Todd Markham

These thank yous are just not realistic....half of them are written from the groom like that will ever happen.

Well these arent meant to be copy and pasted onto someones thank you card they are meant to be used just as an example and template for yours. Obviously you would add the brides and grooms names to the thank yous and change the words around.

Oh sorry I meant that as a joke like it's not realistic that my husband will sit and write out thank you cards. Like Todd Markham did. Not that the verses were not realistic I have copied and pasted them in my computer already.

Re: Writing 'Thank You's'

I don't know... i think you should just be honest and from the heart...

I have gotten so many compliments on my thank you notes....and i didn't use a sample. each person that sent you something means something differently to you and that should come across.....and then you can just throw in something how you will huse the gift....

Re: Writing 'Thank You's'

Only reason why is because I have to call the people that have not RSVP yet.......So I would have any other free time to write them ......But don't worry I am going to reward myself later when I go shopping.
