Thank you notes ... etiquette and issues of time? I expect to receive my pictures from our photographer, and then I wanted to use the photos to design our own custom thank you cards. (Some with our daughter / daughter flower with grandparents, and our friends a picture of us, etc..)
But she said it will be 6-8 weeks before moving my files, is that long after the wedding to send the cards?
Also, many people gave us cash. I read that your put the amount and what you will use the money in your thank you note. We took all the money we received and plunked it on our credit card to help pay for the wedding (which we had maxed out). What should I say in the note?
Also, do you say that everyone present that you gave in the note? Like "Thank you for the glasses to lament, they are beautiful" etc.
Thank you a million!
Hello and congratulations on your marriage! Please do not tell people that you used their wedding to pay for the wedding. lie a little more socially appropriate in this case. eg
Dear Jack and Sue
Thank you very much for your donation. we decided to take all cash donations and save them for the moment. We can not thank you enough for joining us on our marriage and we hope you will stop in soon for a drink!

for the gifts you could explain a little about your example:
Barb and Jane Discount:
Thank you very much for the beautiful wine glasses. they are exactly what we hoped they work very well with our table. We hope you will come as soon to share a bottle of wine and toast our new life together!
Again, thank you
hope to see you soon
Lisa Frank and
your idea for thank you cards makes them even more special for everyone and I am sure they will be delighted to have wedding photos. We recently attended a few weddings and thank you cards were like what you think - we loved them as he gave us a beautiful wedding photo of the happy couples! for 6-8 weeks before they're ready - not too bad - if you can get the cards by mail shortly after that everyone will be impressed by your wife so grateful. I know people say you have six months to a year to get them out, but in all honesty, people will not like having to wait so long and she does nothing but create animosity between you and friends.
again congratulations and I hope that your marriage is very happy!
you should make a note of thanks sent by 2-3 months after the marriage.
I suggest you simply say thank you for your generosity. Stating that you helped pay for the wedding is a kind of sticky.
You can also use it for non-cash donations. If it's something that stands out or if it is for someone like your grandmother and then specify how much you love the specific gift.
Link on how to write a thank you note. It is very good and very clear.

I was told that you have up to a year to send notes of thanks, but you should send as soon as possible. If you have your heart set on a very personal thank you note, I'm sure the people sending your would not mind waiting for something extra special.
Firstly, whenever you think a popular custom photo unique thank you note is requested, it really is not.
What is needed is a thank-you calls.
I suggest you give up all that photo-shop and make beautiful thank you notes and send them as soon as possible. Trust me. You spend a lifetime tweaking these thank you cards (tha.
