Writing thanks is a high priority
While the art of writing thank you notes is
threatened by a rise in mailing costs, it's
something no bride should place on the back
burner.
It doesn't take much tolose track of which
._..present-came=from-whom. And--virhen-that
happens, you face the embarrassment of
sending thank you notes for gifts you can't
name.
Record items as soon as they're received
— stick a number on the bottom of each one
and, in a note book, write down the number,
the name of the gift and the giver.
Whever possible, gifts received before the
wedding should be acknowledged within two
weeks. Any arriving later should be
acknowledged within a month after you
return from your honeymoon.
If the prospect of, writing a stack of notes
seems formidable, do a few each day — this
approach will help you sound spontaneous
and sincere.
When it comes to actually writing the
notes, the responsibility traditionally falls to
the . bride. But there's no reason why a
nimble -minded groom can't share the
challenge of finding 50 different ways to say
thanks.
Thank you notes should be hand-written.
Use either thank you cards or special sta-

tionery — both can be ordered along with
your wedding invitations.
On each note you write, try to include a
personal touch. It needn't be a literary epic
just say -what the gift means to you or how
yJou,plan:.t°use-it._.... _ ._... _
Sample: Thank you so much for the silver
candlesticks. They'll addust the right
touch to our dinner table and we're already
planning lots of candle -lit meals for two.
After you've written a few dozen notes, it
may seem there's nothing more left to say,
especially if you've had several duplicate
gifts. But persevere - the last gift you
acknowledge deserves just as much ap-
preciation as the first.
Don't wait too long to get those notes in the
mail. The few weeks you put the task off
soon turn into months leaving some givers
wondering if you ever received their gifts
and others wondering if they should have
given any gift at all.
Your note could also include an invitation
to visit or a comment about the wedding.
If you dislike a gift or have no idea where
you'll ever use it, emphasize your apprecia-
tion of the giving rather than the gift itself.
Don't try to over -compensate for your
dislike by gushing.
