Thank you note disaster! Help!?

Just send thank you notes to the people who came. I have always felt that thank you notes detailing everything I got the person was like grading a pop quiz. I think the reason the gifts are listed are to personalize the cards more, but that is doable even if you don't know what each person gave you.

Personalize the card to each person, thank them for sharing your wonderful, special day with you, and thank them for their gift. Make sure what you say to each person doesn't sound cookie-cutter; try to fit it to who they are and how you know them.

Just an idea for the future so this doesn't happen again...most people give cards with gifts so as gifts are being opened, have someone write on the back of the card what that person gave - then when it comes time to write thank yous, you just flip the card over and you know exactly what to thank them for.

If your maid of honor still can't find the list, I would send out fairly generic thank you cards - mostly thanking them for coming to the shower.

Something similar happened to my husband and I. After the wedding we wrote all our thank you notes. We had some of them in the car when he got into an accident that totaled the car. So we have no idea who received their thank you cards and who didn't. It's been 2 1/2 years and I still feel bad about it, but there's nothing I can do to fix it except hope that they realize how grateful we really are for their generosity.

The best you can do is to send a generic thank you card to everyone who attended the shower, thanking them for their kindness and support. It's not the same as sending a thank you for a specific gift, but at least they'll know you appreciated their gift.

Breathe. SIt down with your MOH and try and make a new list. Hopefully she will find it in time. If you can't piece the whole thing together then write them a very nice personal not but be vague about the gift. Hopefully you at least can remember who showed up.

talk to the mor.. see what she remembers.. and a trusted friend, maybe your mother. make the best list you can. send out notes to all that were there.. thanking them for everything, and making it such a special day! maybe check with the registry you had set up and see if any of those gifts ring a bell with you! you will find the list the day after you send the thank yous.. and you can be more specific later with them, in a call.. personal one. we all understand that moving possibly, the wedding, parties, it's all a whirlwind around this.

i'm just glad to see someone give out thank you notes, so many don't bother to anymore! anything they get will be appreciated! honestly.

Ask your Mom to refresh your memory and bridal party..anyone who is involved in the bridal party or family. Then just send out general thank you's Like: Thank you coming to my bridal shower and for your beuatiful and generous gift.

Sincerely

I dont think of you may desire to draw interest to the put off. in spite of the undeniable fact that, in case you experience like that's what you desire to do, perchance a information letter could do the trick. you could create something on your computing device with photos detailing your honeymoon, new place, and then communicate suitable to the little issues that have arise as a style of "replace" on your travellers. they'll like to pay attention from you, you could enable them to appreciate you didnt in basic terms verify to jot down thank you notes, and you could comprise a written word to each concentrated visitor thanking them for the waffle iron, toaster....in spite of. All is roofed! Oh and you have six months to jot down notes and have them no longer be late!

Find a list of who was confirmed as coming, and when you write thank you notes, thank them for their wonderful company in celebrating your new life with your partner and their thoughtful gift

write down as many as you can remember. have the maid of honor do the same. then, call the closest friend and the closest relative on the lists, and tell them - i'm sure they will think of more, and will not be likely to tell others of your unfortunate circumstances.

sit down and try and remember who come dont worry about the gift just put thank you for coming and for the gift
