Thank you...for what?

Somehow a few guests got omitted from our gift recap. Either they didnt' give or someone (MOM) didn't write it down!

What's a good way to write a thank you card if you're not sure what the person got you - or if they got you anything?!


Re: Thank you...for what?

  • Thank them for coming to celebrate with you.

  • If you think they got you a gift and you just don't know what.. thank them for the generous gift.  If you are not sure.. just say thank you for sharing in the day with them and if it was a shower gift.. say you hope to see them at the wedding.
  • Ugh.  I am still convinced that cards went missing at my wedding.  There are at least 2-3 people that did not even give a card that I know would never do something like that.  But if they didn't give us a card or gift, I feel to rude to ask.  Especially after a year and a half.

  • Do you have gifts that you can't attach owners to?  If you send a thank you note saying "thanks for coming" and don't mention a gift, and they did give you one, they may bring it up and say "hey didn't you receive the X I gave you?"

  • What quote queen said.  That happened to me at a wedding last year.

    I got a lovely thank you note for making the trip to share their day, etc.  I caller her mom (vaguely related) and asked if they had received the $200 I had put in the card. Turned out that mine was one of several that had cash missing
