Tacky Wedding Thank You's....

Happy Sunday Peeps!!!! Are you ready for the last week in July? I am looking forward to another great week ahead and again lots going on...

OK, here is my hot topic - Wedding Thank You notes. I have been to two friends houses in the past month and commented on the cute picture (like an x-mas card picture) of someones wedding and it says 'Thank You'....I asked my friends, "what is this?"

Friend A explains to me that it is a thank you for the wedding gift. SERIOUSLY?! The picture is a great idea (love it!), however, all the "thank you" said was "Thank you for the wedding gift Love Bob & Mary".

Now, I asked Friend A "was there a note include in the envlope?"

Friend A "no"

I asked Friend A "was there a personal note on the back of the picture?"

Friend A "no"

So, what I am learning is Friend A (and Friend B) spent $50 to $75 on a wedding gift, might have had to travel to the wedding, probably bought a shower gift too AND the bride/groom could not make the thank you a personal note?! TACKY!!!!!!

Here is my solution.....the picture idea is great and an inexpensive way to say thank you, BUT buy a sharpie and write a personal note on the back of the picture. It will mean so much more AND your friends will not phase you out ;)

Chat again soon friends!!!!
