Life moves quickly these days with instant communication via email, blogs and cell phone calls. When one receives a piece of mail there is something special about it. With an impending marriage and many pre-wedding celebrations like engagement parties and showers, there will be thank you notes that must be written.
There will also be invitations to accept from good friends and family that wish to share in your news. Thoughtful and timely correspondence needs to be thoughtful.

The standard for wedding gifts, today is now three to six months, which is acceptable, however sooner is always better. It can be a daunting task to have 200 notes to write; doing a few a day and having your spouse assist will get the job completed in a more efficient manner.

Be sure to write your note and mention the gift or gesture that you are thanking the person for. It need not be a letter; three or more sentences is more than enough unless it is someone extremely close to you. Be sincere with your thanks!
