Thank You Notes

Your thank you notes should be personally handwritten. Remember they are "notes", so don't feel like you have to write individual letters to everyone. Because each thank you note should be personalized there is no point in "telling you" what to write, instead, this post will give you a good idea of what you should include in your thank you notes...we like to think of this as more of a suggestion.

THANK YOU NOTES SHOULD CONTAIN:

The date that you are actually writing the note.
For an informal thank-you, use the name as it is written on the gift card given to you. Example, the individual's name is Michael, but on the gift's card he wrote "From Mike", then on your thank you it would be "Dear Mike..."
On a formal thank you, you would put "Dear Mr. & Mrs. Smith..."
Mention the gift in your thank you "Thank you very much for using my Reebles Registry ..."
Mention what you'll use the gift for "We'll have many romantic nights with the money we saved for our Honeymoon ..."
Whomever is writing thank you is the one to sign the card "Love Sara"
Include both of your names in the card "David and I will think of you every time we return to Key West ..."
Closing terms could be , "Sincerely Sara" or "Love Sara"
