  1. thank you for very generous gift.  We were thrilled to have you at our wedding, and hope you had a wonderful time.  


  2. Just make it straight to the point.  "We would just like to take the time to thank you for sharing our special day with us." then you can comment on the gift if you like.  "the toaster you got us goes great in our kitchen and "Bob" has been using it every day.  He just loves it."  or "thank you for the money as it has helped us to purchase the ______ we have be wanting."  thats basically what I put in my cards and there were no complaints.  people were happy to know their money went to something we wanted or their gift is being used and appreciated.

  3. When writing wedding thank you cards, it's easy to get stumped on what to say, particularly when you don't know the person well, or when you just don't like the wedding gift. Make it easy on yourself by following these samples.

    With all of these examples, use the more formal greeting "Dear Mr. Smith" or the more casual greeting "Dear John depending on how well you know them. You can also adapt the closing accordingly, e.g. "Sincerely," "With love," "Best Wishes," and the like.

    Dear Aunt Ann and Uncle Joe,

    Thank you so much for the gorgeous lace tablecloth! It is beautiful and

    we were both incredibly touched that you gave us this family heirloom. It was wonderful, as always, to see you at the wedding – I especially loved jitterbugging with Uncle Joe. I can’t wait to catch up on your news and tell you all about the honeymoon and newly married life.

    With love,

    Thank you for the beautiful vase that you sent Christine and me as a wedding present. I know we will enjoy it for many years to come. It was wonderful to finally get to meet you at the wedding. We really appreciate that you were able to witness such a happy day for us and our families.

    A thank you card when you’ve received cash or a gift certificate

    Use the thank you card to tell the givers how you used it. For example:

    Dear Terry and Vicky,

    Todd and I wanted to thank you greatly for the check you sent for a wedding gift. We are saving to buy a new car, and your gift will help us reach our goal. We can’t wait to take you for a spin around the neighborhood.

    Best wishes,

    Christine Markham

    Dear Jack,

    I am writing to thank you for the place setting of china that you so kindly sent for a wedding gift. Todd and I now have a service for eight. I’m sure we’ll use it for years to come. Wedding china is such a thoughtful gift and an instant family heirloom.

    Thanks again,

    Christine Markham

    Dear Alice,

    Thank you for your thoughtful wedding gift to the ASPCA in our names. As you know, this charity is very dear to both Todd and I; they do such wonderful work for all of the animals in our area, as well as across the country. We can’t imagine a more wonderful present than a donation to such a cause.

    With best wishes,
