Hello all! I have a question regarding wedding gift etiquette.
For our wedding, my (now) husband and I registered at Amazon. Amazon allows you to see when a gift was purchased for you, and by whom.
Well, there is one gift that was purchased several weeks ago, but still has not arrived. We live in an apartment building, and I am concerned that someone stole the package from our front porch. But, there are other possible explanations as well, including standard shipping issues.
This has been driving me crazy, because I want to make sure the gift is received (obviously!). But, I don't really know what I can do. Amazon does not allow the gift recipient to track the package; instead, only the purchaser can track the package.
It seems logical to me to reach out to the buyer, and let them know of the shipping issues. However, the gift giver is not a close friend or relative, and is actually my boss at work.
So, what does etiquette dictate here? Is it tacky to ask him to look up the tracking information and see what the status of the package is? Do I just let it go?
Furthermore, I had been waiting to send individual thank you cards until the actual gift has been received. But, considering the delay, should I just send the thank you card now?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have no experience with any of this!
Thank you!
