It’s important to recognize people for their good deeds and a meaningful thank-you is a wonderful way to do just that. Here are some tips for writing a meaningful wedding gift thank-you card…
Be prepared with thank-you stationery at the ready and keep track of the gifts you receive and from whom you receive them.
As with pretty much everything in life, timing is everything. So be prompt with your thank-you notes, as no one likes to be forgotten. Two to three weeks is an acceptable response time if you have a large number of thank-yous to write.
Including specific details about their gift or the reasons their particular gift makes you grateful will make your thank-you more personalized and meaningful. For instance, did it mean the world to you that a special moment or fondness was reflective in their wedding gift?
Try to avoid cliches or overused adjectives. Instead, speak from the heart and use words you would choose in a face-to-face conversation to express your thanks.
Take the time and effort to legibly handwrite your thank-yous instead of sending emails or texts. The extra time you take will not go unnoticed.
Correct spelling and grammar are important too. Just as taking the time to mention details that matter to you and handcrafting your note, make the extra time to ensure that your grammar is correct. Incorrect grammar can appear slopping and uncaring.
