Wedding Thank You Cards

I'd like to praise the traditional practice of sending thank you cards for gifts received at a wedding. Why bother? Here are two great reasons: 1) To confirm that the gifts was received - How many times have you put your gift in a pile of presents at the guestbook table and crossed your fingers that the younger brother of the groom who's in charge of loading the gifts into a van and taking them to the newlyweds' aparatment actually does his job and gets the gifts safely there? Or, what if you've sent your gift by post...and you're not sure that it was delivered to the right address (I'm still wondering about that baby gift that I sent to a friend last year). Receiving a thank you card takes that little worry out of the giver's mind and puts them at ease. 2) To express your gratitude - It's nice to receive an expression of gratitude and thanks, especially for a gift that was carefully and specially chosen. The guesture of sending a thank you card is a final statement related to your wedding, made as a new couple. Why not express your gratitude, delight the recipient, and show the world that you're organized and on top of things!!
