Stress-Free Shortcuts to Writing Thank-You Notes

Writing thank-you notes is non-negotiable. It is important to recognize your nearest and dearest loved ones for the the gifts you have received before the big day.

Imagine Joy

Writing thank-you notes is non-negotiable. It is important to recognize your nearest and dearest loved ones for the the gifts you have received before the big day. Check out these tips and tricks to help you the process less painful:

Purchase Paper Goods ASAP

Once you have made an engagement announcement, you should go on a shopping spree for your stationery and stamps as soon as possible to be prepared for the piles of presents.

Take It A Day At A Time

Whether you like it or not, you must handwrite thank-you notes. Designate a down time during the day such as watching television to work on them. Remember the following formula: thank the gift giver for X,Y, or Z + say something specific on how you will use it + can’t wait to see you at the wedding.

But Bring Them Everywhere

You would not want them to keep piling up! After all, you have approximately two to three weeks after unwrapping a beautiful box of utensils to send a thank-you note via snail mail. Place a few in your purse in case of a delay.

Opt For An Online Service

Postable is an online service that allows you to type your thank-you notes using fancy fonts. The best part? It can import all your guests’ addresses from WeddingWire’s FREE guest list tool too!

Delegate Duties

Teamwork makes the dreamwork! You should not be the only one doing the signing, sealing, and delivering. Delegate duties to your significant other. Maybe one does her family and the other does his family or one does her friends and the other does his friends.
