(card from redstamp.com)I have a confession to make, I still haven't sent out our wedding thank you cards! We have been married now 6 months and nary a thank you card sent. I have the cards, I just haven't made the time to send them. My husband even offered to do all of them, but we have different views on what should be said in a thank you card. I've already received 2 thank you cards from friends who got married a week after I did, and they sent their cards asap! I know i have up to

Excellent!
And I don't mean to freak you out, but the etiquette rule is actually that guests have up to a year to send wedding gifts. TY notes are supposed to be sent off as soon as possible.

I've heard that you have only 4 wks after the wedding...
BUT
at this point, why worry about spilt milk? :)
It probably just seems like a totally daunting task. I say, if you don't get the 20 done, just do 1 or 2 each night. That way, you'll be done in a month or so (depending on how many gifts you have). Either way, I think it's just the psychology of getting started. Every journey starts w/ one step.
Four Weeks??? Wha?? It took me nine months or more to get them all out. So some people got them right away...and some...not so much. I read you have up to a year so...that was my goal.
I never have a problem sending thank you cards, but the wedding ones were different. I think because after coming back from my honeymoon the last thing I wanted to do was think wedding.
That said, I think the best way is to tackle a few a night. And unless your husband's idea of what should be included is totally heinous let him do the ones for his friends and family if he's willing.
you can just email me a thank you momma to be:) Seriously!!!
