Shower gift thank yous

My wedding shower was yesterday and I'm finally down to my last few thank you cards!  I received a gift from FI's aunt with the names of his two cousins signed to the card.  The cousins were invited but both live out of state and I know the gift is entirely from the aunt.  Do I need to send 3 individual thank yous (one to the aunt and one for each cousin) or can I send I thank you to the aunt's address thanking all of them?  I could easily go either way and I'm just looking for some opinions. TIA!

    Posted by notyetavet[/QUOTE]<div>If I were in your position, I would probably just send one to the aunt, and maybe mention the cousins in the note. But, I make no claims regarding the etiquette of that.

  • If your aunt put their names on the card, I would send the cousins thank you notes.  I don't think you have to, but it would be nice.  
  • I would send one to the cousins as well. Even though the aunt likely paid for the gift or whatever, it's from all of them so they should all be recognized.

  • Just my opinion but if their name is on the card, I'm sending each of them thank you notes. I know this is going to happen at our shower, so I rather just send them a thank you note instead of getting a call from them asking if we got their gift. Better safe than sorry.

  • Thanks for all of the input! Sounds like I'm sending 3 cards.
