The Art of the Thank You
I read a twitter post recently that a handwritten thank you note is the ultimate social media and I have to agree. In an age of nonstop texts, emails and everything electronic, a handwritten thank you is such a lovely departure. I got a thank you note from one of my recent couples with photos from the wedding and loved it!
When someone takes the time to send you a gift, a handwritten thank you note is a must. I know it can be a pain (and when you have close to a hundred to write, it seems daunting and is the last thing you want to do after the craziness of your wedding and honeymoon), but consider it a non-negotiable. So knock off four or five each night with a glass of wine and an episode of Modern Family (okay, maybe that's just me--I love that show) and you'll be done in no time! Here are some of our favorite ways to make your notes a little more fun and creative!
Turn some favorite wedding photos into vintage-style postcards!
Take a photo at your wedding just for your thank you notes:
Or if you forget to take a shot on your wedding day, you can always get creative after the fact with these fun T-shirts:

Agreed! A ha(ndwritten thank you note is a must. And so appreciated by the gift giver).
ReplyDeleteThe postcards are a great idea! Sending lots of thank-you cards to generous guests and friends can add up surprisingly quickly.
