shower thank you notes - 2 quick q's.

Ummm, so I'm writing my thank you cards and I was wondering if I sign it from both Fl and I or just myself?

Also, I'm seeing his family this weekend.  Can I hand deliver?

  • Sign just for yourself.

    I have mixed feelings about the hand deliever. I thought about it, and then decided to err on the side of caution and just mailed everything.

  • Ditto. I only signed the shower invites.

    I think it would be fine to hand deliever them. It is more personal, after all.
  • I think since they're showering you with gifts (even so your FI will use them too) it's better to sign just for yourself.

  • Ditto PP on signing them yourself. I also agree with the hand delivery thing--I have an Indian friend who was actually a little hurt that someone mailed her a wedding invite instead of hand-delivering it; for her, something mailed communicated that the person didn't like her enough to give it to her themselves! I know that mailing is our cultural norm, but my point is that some people may really appreciate the extra touch of hand-delivery. I wouldn't worry about it.

  • I sign TY notes just from me (and my FI signs if he is writing), and try to mention my FI in the note, like "FI and I look forward to displaying our wedding photo in the picture frame you bought." 

    I probably wouldn't hand deliver myself, but I don't see anything wrong with it as long as there is no one there who was not invited to the shower that might get upset about it.
  • I signed mine just from me since the shower was your traditional bridal shower with only women...but I made a point to say something to the extent of "Kevin and I are looking forward to using this in our new home!"

    ...and I think hand delivering is just fine!
