Question about Thank Yous for Bridal Shower

I'm not sure how to address the Thank You notes for my bridal shower.

Do I only address them to the woman who attended the shower, or should I address them to the husband and wife? (or significant other).

Some of our guests signed their cards as "Mr & Mrs", and some just signed their name alone. It was not a couple's shower, only the women attended the shower.. and I can't remember how the thank you's I've received in the past have been addressed.
Thanks!!

    I would address them the way they were signed; "Mr. & Mrs." for those who signed that way and just to the woman for those that signed the other way.

    I just put the guys name in ()- so Dear Susie (&John), etc if I knew the man. If I didnt, I just addressed the woman.

    For both my bridal and baby shower, I wrote the TY out and addressed to however the card was signed  So, if the guy's name was listed on the card, I put it on the TY note.

    I only put the woman's name since that was typically the only name on the card.

    Hmmm.... ok thanks everyone...
    I'll try to go by what was written on the cards..the problem is, many of them were just the tag on the gift bag, and no actual card..and those were thrown out..

    <div>I think it's ok to write it to the woman in those cases.  Or else you could mention the couple in the note, e.g. "Dear Jane, thank you for coming to my shower, and we are really grateful to you and John for the generous gift!"  Just a thought.</div><div>
