Thank you note wording

Kristen625

So I'm hand writing my thank you notes to my guests that came to the wedding. I have a quick question about wording when a guest has put money in a card that was given to us at the wedding. Now with birthdays as a kid we would usually say something to the effect of "thank you for the spending money" or some such thing. How do I word this for wedding money? Do I just thank them for joining in our special day?

Thank you for your gift. We plan to use the money towards a down payment on a house this fall, or towards a delayed honeymoon, or add to our savings for a new sofa, or however you plan to use the money.

I try to personalize it a little, write a little blurb, and tie the gift into something we will use it towards "Thank you so much for coming to our wedding, we were delighted to share our special day with you! It really ended up being a perfect day, despite the rain. Thank you also for your generous gift, it is very much appreciated. We used it on our honeymoon to go towards a playoffs game between the Red Sox and the Rays and ---the Sox won and went off to the World Series!" or 'We are putting it towards our home" .... I just kind of thought of something we used it towards on our honeymoon that was of similar value and told people about the experience.

I just personalized it per person as needed. I thanked them for the gift, what we planned on using it for, and wishing them well, etc.
