At a minimum, wedding thank you cards should recognize that you received gifts, acknowledge any monetary assistance and any other efforts by your guests.

For guests who gifted you

Traditionally, a significant number of guests will offer different wedding gifts. A good rule when appreciating those guests:

• Acknowledge the gift
• Explain why you love the gift
• Elaborate on how you plan to use the gift
• Compliment and a send personalized message for the gifter

Example

Dear Racheal and Robert,
Thank you so much for the cutlery set you gifted us for our wedding! The knives are incredibly sharp and are quite handy when chopping onions and vegetables. We're mesmerized by your kindness. Also thank you for going out of our way to make our big day a big success. Thank you again!

Warmly,
Nellie and Travis

For guests who made a financial contribution

Monetary contributions are open-ended gifts, it is intrinsic to mention the plans you have for the money, but it is not mandatory. Rather than citing the specific amount of money, refer to the token as a generous gift.

For Example:

Dear Gladys,

We are so honored for the generous gift you made at the wedding. You made our honeymoon a fantastic experience, and your kindness wows us. You will always be a fun part of our union and memories.

We are looking forward to catching up and sharing our beautiful honeymoon stories!

Lots of love,
Jullie and Benson

For your bridal party

Rather than sending a joint thank you card for your bridal party, make it personalized by sending a special card to each member. Remember to include how much you value their presence and friendship.

For Example:

Dear Milly,

Thank you so much for being our best maid! Your contagious smile, humor, organization skills, and advice made our wedding spectacular. We are so lucky to have such a supportive and incredible friend who played the most crucial role in our big wedding!

Lots of love,
Gladys and Joseph

For your parents

A handwritten note to your parents is thoughtful and an incredible lifetime memory for your special day. Express your gratitude for their undying love and ongoing financial and emotional support.

For example:

Dear Mom and Dad,

Your encouragement, support, and heartfelt advice before and during the wedding have been so comforting. We appreciate you for being a significant part of our wedding day. Travis and I have been so lucky to have you by our side and being at the forefront of organizing our special day.

Lots of Love,
Jenny and Travis
