What should I do?
I sent out Thank You notes about a month after our wedding, (I would have done so sooner but being military and in the middle of a move and training I was happy with when I got them out and didn't feel like I broke etiquette). But now since so many of our friends are military and in the middle of their own training, we are receiving Thank You cards back with return to sender, unable to forward stamps. I have re-routed a couple notes after asking for updated addresses. But others have not responded to my inquiries of their new address, and another note came back over Christmas and I misplaced it.
How long do I keep pursuing people whose thank-you notes have been returned to me? And the misplaced one was for a groomsman who doesn't feel a need for receiving a thank you card...should I still re-write him one and send it? What is the proper etiquette for this?
I feel bad because I used the same set of addresses for our christmas cards and I know I will be getting some of those back too come January.
