If you’re going to be sending out thank you cards after your wedding, take a look at these helpful tips and tricks.

 

If your wedding day is approaching fast, then it’s time to start thinking about what you need to do after your big day. One of the most important things to do after your wedding is sending out thank you cards. In this blog, we’re going to go over some of the most important things to know about sending thank you cards after your wedding.

Sending Cards

There are so many different options that you can consider for your thank you cards.

 

Some couples wait until after they’ve received their wedding photos in order to send out their thank you cards. Doing this means that you can design a thank you card that includes pictures from your wedding. This can be a great way to make your thank you cards specific to who you are as a couple.

 

If you’re looking for an eco-friendly option, you may want to opt for sending virtual thank you cards. The paper that’s associated with traditional cards isn’t always good for the planet, so sending a virtual option can be a great way to be environmentally conscious. 

What to Include

Some people feel confused about where to start when it comes to writing thank you cards. If you’re feeling this way, know that you’re not alone. A good rule of thumb is to specifically name the thing that you’re thanking them for, as well as to include personal details. 

 

While you’ll most likely be using some form of a template to write your notes, you should still make them personalized as a way of showing your gratitude and care for the guest.

Keep a List

One of the most important parts of writing thank you notes happens before you actually write the notes. It’s essential that while you’re opening your gifts you keep a list of who is giving you what – that way you won’t be confused or unsure while you’re writing your notes.

Timeline

There isn’t necessarily one right answer when it comes to when you should send out thank you cards. While they should be timely after your big day, you also don’t need to send them out the week of your wedding. Taking a look at your schedule to see when you can get them done is a good first step, but they should be a priority after your big day.

 

If you’re not sure whether or not you’ll be able to get all of your thank you cards done, consider if there are any ways that you can take some of the stress off of your plate. From asking other people for help to getting a professional to address the envelopes, there are so many different ways that you can relieve some stress and make sure that you still send out your thank you cards to your guests.
