Photo Holiday Cards?

My husband and I are having a debate about whether to send a photo holiday card this year. We just got married and I wanted to send one with a wedding photo of the two of us. We didn't send photo thank yous, and we had a small destination wedding so not a lot of people could come so I think it would be nice. His rebuttle is that we always mock people who send holiday cards with photos when people don't have children. This is only the case for one friend of his who's girlfriend sends out a photocard of the two of them. We thinks its weird someone would do this when they aren't even married or atleast engaged. I think its very different getting a photo card from a married couple.What are your thoughts? Do you think sending a photo card with a wedding picture is ok or will we be mocked like the couple who aren't engaged who send one every year?

Re: Photo Holiday Cards?

  • We do photo cards, but could you compromise and send a regular card with a small wedding picture included in the card?
  • we di that the year we got married and everyone loved it.i dont think we got mocked but if we did i didnt care. 

    i didnt send it to coworkers though, regular cards to them but family and close friends we did

  • I, like you op, have mocked people for sending photos of themselves when they weren't married. H's brother does that and it was the silliest thing I have even seen. I don't even think they had been together a year at that point.  I have not received one of a married couple or engaged couple ever. I do love receiving the ones with children on it.  I think pp suggesting that you send a card with your wedding photo is a much better idea. But, if you don't care about potentionally being mocked, then I suggest you go for it. :)

  • I send out photo cards of me and DH and usually but not always, our dog.  This was after we got married only.  I don't see why that is weird.  We are still a family even if we don't have kids.  Personally I love getting the photo cards.  Most of the people who send them we don't see alot and its nice.  The christmas letters on the other hand....yeah I mock those Big Smile  I think its a great idea to send one out with your wedding photo.
