Hey Ladies,

 

Am I the only slacker who didn't get hers out yet? I am a may 19th bride and I started writing them out but still have about 40 to go. I really wanted to get them out before our month...Emily Post says 3 months...hopefully the end of this week. blah!

Re: Thank you Notes?

  • I'm a may 12th bride...and I still havent gotten the TYs out yet.

    I have about 1/2 done, ready to go, but I want H to do some that are to his family, so they're not all in my handwriting! So I'm waiting for a free night to do this (hoping for tonight or tomorrow)

    Things have been crazy busy since we got married, so its been hard to sit down for a few hours and do them, but my goal is to get them all out by this Friday.

  • I'm May 18 and mailed them so most people would get them today. I really just wanted to get it down so have been working on them little by little for the last 2 weeks. I wouldn't stress though, you still have plenty of time.

  • Nope, I'm a May 12 bride and I've only sent out about half of them.  However, I didn't receive them until last week, so I'm hoping by this time next week I will be done.  No worries, we all still have time =]

  • i'm may 5th and we're still working on ours... we send out a few at a time as we get them done.  our goal is to be done by the two month mark.

  • Im a May 20th Bride and am waiting for professional pictures and theres a problem with the photographers, so it might be a while...I read somewhere that as long as you send them by 3 months your ok ettiquite wise. Id like to get them done with sooner, but really want to use a picture!
  • I split them up into 3 lists, physical gifts, checks, and cash..  And then split them up his and hers.

     We're done with physical gifts, and, and I've done my side of the checks.  Left is his side of checks, and all the cash.  Which we opened on the way to the Sox game we went to when we left our wedding on Sunday morning.  I didn't have paper, so I just wrote cash on the cards, and kept them separate, but it looks like at some point in the craziness of the past month (my parents closing on their house and moving into ours, our honeymoon, various other houseguests, etc) that pile of cards has disappeared.

     Ugh.  I can't believe I didn't make a separate list. I figure I'll just write to anyone who was left after the gift/check list has been finished.

     Stupidest thing I've ever done :)

  • I'm a May 19th bride and I was able to get our thank you picture from our photographer last week and ordered the post cards. They arrived on Friday and I got them all done Friday night. I am mailing them out today.

  • I got all but two out already and the original batch I had done within a week of being married. We took a two day honeymoon roadtrip. I got most written in the car ride and the rest while we were waiting on the zoo to open. The two I have left I know need to be out soon but I need the addresses and it just seems a pain.
  • I am a May 5th bride and I have only addressed all of the envelopes.. I have yet to write them...

  • May 5th... we mailed the last of them last weekend.  It felt so nice to have them all out.  I wrote them ALL and Greg addressed them.
  • May 12 here, we didn't even get to open our gifts until 4 weeks after the wedding (last weekend)! and this week is really crazy with school, so we haven't done any yet.. we will get the first batch done for the weekend though and the rest the week after.

     

    I was so disappointed because I was on top of it before we got married - shower thank yous I had done that night and out the next day... i feel like such a slacker! But 6 weeks isn't that bad.. right? :P
