The Scoop on Wedding Thank You Cards | Austin, TX Wedding Planners




You’ve just had the wedding of your dreams, you’re back from your honeymoon and now it’s time to send out your thank you cards. Odds are you’ve already sent out your fair share of thank you cards but there is some specific wedding card etiquette rules you might want to know.

 

Are Thank You Cards Necessary?

YES. Sending out thank you cards is a MUST! Your guests spent the time to get you something off your registry or donate towards your honeymoon, arrange travel and take time out of their busy lives all to celebrate you and this new chapter in your life. The least you can do is say thank you!


When Should You Send Them Out?

This depending on when you receive your wedding gift from each guest. According to The Knot, if you receive a gift before your wedding day (which happens a lot these days since people can have something sent directly to your home with the click of a button) you should send them a thank you note within 2 weeks. For all gifts received on your wedding day or after, you have a three-month window to get those thank you notes sent out.
